I have teamed up with Thoughtfully to give you guys an awesome giveaway! They sent me the above Moscow Mule Lover’s Gift Set and I loved it so much that I asked if they could give some to you and they graciously offered to give away 3 boxes, so there will be 3 winners! Each winner will get to pick out any gift box from Thoughtfully. This giveaway is valued up to $120 per winner. I picked the Moscow Lover gift set because I am obsessed with copper right now and have been collecting everything copper so I could decorate my new kitchen with it. My box arrived and inside was

  • TWO MOSCOW MULE MUGS
  • TWO GRAPHIC PAPER COASTERS
  • GLASS COCKTAIL SHAKER
  • MATRYOSHKA JIGGER
  • BUNDABERG GINGER BEER (12.7oz)
  • MOSCOW MULE SYRUP (8.5oz)

“Comfort Me” Giveaway with Saranoni, Kathyandflick & Katykristin

~ Etc.

We have an awesome giveaway for you this week where one winner will win a adult blanket and a toddler/teen blanket of their choice from Saranoni, custom made shark book from KathyandFlick, and a doll of your choice from KatyKristin, a total of $240 value.

Let’s take a look at each shop:

When a company contacts me to see if I’d like to do a review on their product, I start out by saying, “Hmm, let’s really see if it’s an awesome product that I would really want.”  and dig into their website to learn all about the product.  I have a policy that I only feature items that I love on this blog, and if I don’t fall in love with it, I contact the company and politely and apologetically tell them I won’t be featuring their products/company on my blog(it’s happened a few times actually, and sometimes I even offer to pay for it because I feel bad).  So I am always very picky with what products I agree to receive because I know if I won’t like it, I won’t post it and I feel bad for that company.  So just in the future, know that I turn down quiet a bit of companies that contact me,wanting to send me products because what’s the point in receiving something, even if it’s for free, if I won’t like it and use it?  That’s a waste of time on my part and for the company.    
So when Saranoni contacted me, I thought, “Hmm, is it really the softest blanket in the world like you claim?  Hmmm?”  Okay, I can’t find anywhere on their site now that claims they’re the softest blanket so I don’t know where I got that idea, but it doesn’t matter because I am here to claim to the world that it really is the softest blanket in the world!  Well, that’s silly you might say.  Have I tried every blanket in the world?  Yes, I have.  No, I am joking, of course I haven’t.  But I can’t imagine a blanket being any softer, smooth or cozy!
My 6 year old daughter always tells me she doesn’t have anything that comforts her.  She has never found a blanket or a doll that comforts her, so I was hoping this soft blanket would comfort her, and just as I was hoping, the first thing my daughter said was, “Mommy, this blanket comforts me!” and she has named it spotty.  My other daughter who can’t live without her old blanket said she now has 2 favorite blankets.  She has named it fuzzy. 

I chose the Ivory wave/gingersnap wave for myself and a Gray stripe XL throw for my husband because they’re both neutral colors and it will match with our bedspreads or in our living room if we want to use it as a decorative/guest throw.  

This quiet shark book is perfect for bedtime reading and my favorite, at church.  The book comes with a cute little shark and the shark can hide in each individual pocket that’s on every page in different “hiding spots” such as a boat, a sea wave, a cave, and a treasure box.  My favorite game to play with my 12 month old with the shark book is to hide the shark in one of the hiding spots and have him flip through the pages to see how fast he can find it.  It’s like a hide and go seek with the shark, and he loves it!  I also love quiet books because it can be rolled up or bend, making it fit just right in the crevice of my diaper bag.  
My daughter chose the Pippi rag doll, probably because Ariel and Merida are her favorites Disney princesses and they both have red hair.  She loves her doll, she’s been sleeping with it every night and carrying it around with her wherever she goes.  It doesn’t have any choking hazards such as buttons on the doll, and I love that it’s machine washable.  It’s made of soft cotton, muslin and fleece and it’s durable and adorable!  I love the vintage fabrics on the doll , the bird print is my favorite.  KatyKristin has been featured in the current issue of Mollie Makes U.S Edition.

$50 giveaway to Tigerlily Dream

~ Etc.

We have another small business giveaway by Tigerlily Dream, an adorable store selling beautiful, feminine, and classy jewelry pieces.  I am sporting the rose gold pave necklace and I wear it everyday, it’s simply stunning!  It’s simple and delicate, with a little bit of glam that can be casual or dressy, making it a perfect everyday necklace.  My favorite part about the necklace is that I’ve noticed I’ve never had to adjust this necklace ever, not even once.  Since the jewel stone is not dangling from the necklace chain, but it’s part of of the chain, it stays in place right in the middle of your neck at all times.  

One lucky winner will win a $50 giftcard to the shop to use however he/she desires.  This giveaway is open to U.S only and will close on April 8th.  To enter the giveaway, complete the Rafflecopter below.  Best luck everyone!
