burning love {glade giveaway} CLOSED

I love a good smelling home and am always trying different candles, plug ins, reed diffusers, & air fresheners to keep ours smelling fresh and lovely! I couldn’t wait to get a new candle from Glade’s Soy Fragrance Collection!

Longing for a great atmosphere in your home? Or for the flickering glow of a candle while you bask in a soothing scent? Glade® fragrances help you transform any room of your home, bringing you the perfect expression for any mood or occasion.

Whether the scent you crave is fruity or floral, spicy or sensual,
Glade® has a fragrance to satisfy you. For more than 50 years, Glade®
has been bringing quality, lasting, inspiring scents to the homes of
families all over the world. ~Glade

glade_candle-300x271 I was so excited when I found out that I would be included on the Glade Review from The Family Review Network & Glade Fragrance Collection! I love scented candles around the house and couldn’t wait to see which scent I was going to receive from them! I couldn’t believe it when I opened the box, they couldn’t have chosen a better scent for me! They sent me Lemongrass & Citrus, which is crazy because when I got married in Jamaica, the hotel had this amazing Lemongrass lotion. I saved it and only used it on special occasions because it always took me back to the time of our wedding. I ran out years ago and have never smelled anything like it…until my Glade package arrived! Within minutes of lighting the candle, I was whisked away to Jamaica. The smell of lemongrass filling our home brought back so many wonderful memories! I have been burning the candle every day for a little while and it really does create a beautiful scent throughout the house! Glade offers so many amazing scents and products. Isn’t it amazing how a simple smell can take you away, back to memories and amazing moments? The large 10 oz. candle burns up to 35 hours because of its size and because it is soy based. This candle comes in a pretty glass jar, so you will love using as a decorative item in your home, as well as burning it for a lovely scent!

Today, The Family Review Network & Glade will be giving away one Glade candle.

{ATG Stores $100 Gift Certificate Giveaway} CLOSED

Shop Smart-Save Money with ATG Stores!

ATG Stores has over 500+ websites for your shopping convenience!

Getting ready for baby is in full swing at our house and getting the nursery decorated is at the top of my list. I finally picked out a theme: Zebra and Pink! Yes this is my first girl so the room has to be everything girl. I had the opportunity to order the Zebra Skin Safari Area Rug for the new nursery from ATG Stores floorandsurfaces.com. It arrived within 2 weeks and quickly it was laid in the nursery. It is plush and soft and I love the look it creates. There is something about a rug on the floor that adds so much to a room. It is a generous size of 5′ x 7′ so it covers the area quite well since the room is only around 11′ wide. Now onto finishing the rest of the room…I will definitely post a picture when it is all complete. Thanks ATG Stores for the gorgeous zebra rug for the new babies nursery!

With so many stores and so many items to chose from where should you start? How about these, that’s where I will be scouting out other items for the baby and her room: Baby Stroller Showroom, Lighting Universe, New Baby Supply, and Decor Universe.

Today, ATG Stores is giving one of you…

Real Moms DIY: My Mirror Transformation!

For years…I have wanted to update my bathroom to have more of a classy look and feel. I just didn’t know where to start. Then I found Reflected Design! They specialize in custom frames for existing mirrors. They were just what my bathroom needed. Just a simple face lift for the mirror I already had.

The process was simple. I simply selected the frame style of my choice, supplied my measurements and information about my counter space, and they made my frame to custom fit my space. It arrived quickly and with clear instructions for installation. I simply laid the 4 frame pieces out on the floor. With the supplied wood glue, I glued the edges before screwing them together, then let it dry for 45 minutes before picking it up and taking it into my bathroom. I then proceeded to place it up with the top clips that they provided already on it, and made sure it would fit perfectly. Then I enlisted the help of the hubby and we applied the epoxy glue with the instructions provided. We help the mirror in place for 90 seconds and DONE!

Just take a look at what my vanity looked like before I started the transformation.

BEFORE:

Prepare to be amazed! Drum roll please………..

AFTER:

Isn’t the change amazing? Such a simple project, yet the results are incredible.

I highly recommend anyone who wants to update their already existing mirror to order from Reflected Design.

Make sure that you head over to Reflected Designs Facebook page and ‘Like’ them.

Check out more of the their before and afters here!

Creativity from Around the World {Novica Giveaway} CLOSED

Novica_logo1

I’m so glad to know about Novica, an organization associated with National Geographic which unites artisans from around the world to your home! Novica has changed the lives of these talented people from over 2,000 countries by providing them a way to make their living by creating beautiful pieces of art. They use materials and techniques from their region and their culture, some of which were passed on for many generations.

Each piece has a person and a story behind it. Novica not only connects you with the product, but the person whose hands made it!

I chose the ‘Blue Cloud’ Celadon Ceramic Vase to review. This vase was made by Novica_vase Duangkamol Srisukri in Thailand. I loved reading about her family…her parents, with friends, founded a ceramic shop and from there, she developed a passion for celadon and stoneware ceramics. She loves making both Thai and Chinese-style ceramics, ranging from vases to animal figurines.

I love my vase! The color is this lovely light blue with a contrasting brown texture at the bottom. Last week I enjoyed the vase with fresh flowers but forgot to take a picture, so here it is with some handmade heart flowers! I also love the soft, flowing shape of the vase. And knowing it was made by hand makes it all the more beautiful.

And I must comment on the packaging. It was rapped beautifully in lovely textured paper, but that’s not what impressed me the most. There was no plastic except for a few pieces of tape. Other than that, my vase was completely cushioned in newsprint. No styrofoam or anything that can’t be recycled…and my vase arrived in perfect condition. So it IS possible!

It did take me a while to choose between all the beautiful products on Novica. I almost chose some celadon animal ornaments from Duangkamol, and I was also eyeing some pretty storage baskets for my craft area. And that’s just things for the home…Novica also has clothing and other accessories like jewelry and handbags, all lovingly handmade by a talented artist from the other side of the world.

Today, Novica is Giving Away a $50 Gift Certificate!

Want to enter to win? Here’s how:

1st Entry {Mandatory}: Visit Novica and tell us what lovely handmade creation you’d like for yourself or your home.

A Baby Shower Day #4 Giveaways: Woombie, Milson Road, Wonder Bumpers {CLOSED}

Swaddle your baby Safely and Effectively with The Woombie … designed to ease your mind and comfort your baby so you may both achieve a better nights sleep. The Woombie is the safest & most NATURAL way to Swaddle your baby, encouraging baby to softly stretch extremities as needed, just like in the womb. The Woombie comforts, softly confines arms & gently compresses baby’s unique curves to hug baby… preventing Startling issues, face scratching, overheating and also preventing dangerous loose unraveled blankets from covering baby’s face.

Woombie generously sent me their woombie newborn swaddler in Aruba to review for my new baby and this baby shower event. At first glance I knew I would love this product. When my little guy was a baby I had the hardest time keeping him swaddled. He would wiggle his way out of the tightest swaddle and in turn wouldn’t stay asleep for long. Most babies suffer from the startle reflex up until six months of age (you know when they startle while sleeping and throw their arms up in the air). The woombie is the perfect solution to keep them asleep for longer, I think of it just like the mother’s womb because of it’s shape and design. It is made of cotton so it is very soft. It features a 1 way zipper and snap. I simply put the baby in the peanut shape sack, zip, and snap! All done! Baby is happily swaddled and ready for sleep. I love the woombie so much I am already planning on buying more before my baby arrives so I have a few in every size. Thanks Karen for creating such a wonderful product that mom’s and babies everywhere {heart}!

Buy your own Woombie today online!

Today, Woombie is giving away an Organic Newborn Woombie!

($26.99 value!)

I was very excited when I was given the opportunity to review “The Daily Portrait” from Milson Road. Since my new baby has not arrived yet I decided to have it made with my first child’s information. It was very easy to create. I simply filled out their online order form with his name, birth date, and other important facts, I was also able to upload a picture of my baby. I then clicked order. It arrived about 2 weeks later. Remember, this is a custom design so it does take time for them to create it. It arrived packaged wonderfully fully wrapped in bubble wrap to prevent the glass from breaking. I opened it up and my mouth dropped. It was amazing! I quickly showed my hubby and he was just as thrilled. It is truly a work of art now hanging in our office. It is a beautiful reminder to us of the day our little guy entered this world. The frame and matte are gorgeous and I absolutely love this piece of art in my home.

Today, One lucky reader will win their very own Milson Road “The Daily Portrait”!

($165 value!)

Wonder Bumpers are the safe, smart alternative to conventional bumper pads. Wonder Bumpers’ innovative design continuously protects your baby’s head and body, prevents escape artists from crawling out of their crib, and most importantly, reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) by providing increased air flow.

Since I FINALLY picked out a theme for my new nursery (found out it’s a GIRL!!!), the next step was the crib theme! I have always been worried about the dangers of traditional bumper pads. The Wonder Bumper is the perfect solution to my worries. Go Mama Go Designs graciously sent me a pack of wonder bumpers for my little girls new crib. They even included a matching super soft minky crib sheet in white.

I received a set of the bluebird pattern(that reverse to white) and a set of pink. Since these are the colors of my nursery they will go perfectly with the theme. They are so cute and do the same job as a traditional crib bumper but with added safety. I can’t believe what a difference they make on a standard crib. They really make the room pop now! I found them super easy to put on. Simply wrap and zip. They never have to be removed and if I need to wash them I simply take them off and throw them in the washing machine. They provide protection for my sleeping little one, and they are also reversible. So when I want to change things up, I simply flip them around.

This is great because you can use them for the next baby too! They have so many different patterns and colors. You must check them out!

Stay up to day on Wonder Bumpers with their newsletter and their Blog!

Today, Wonder Bumpers is giving away a…

Lotus 38 Set Includes white minky crib sheet, gorgeous dust ruffle and super lux toddler blanket!

($239 value!)

A Baby Shower Day #1 Giveaways: Clearwater Infant Tub, My Mommy’s Bracelets, Inspire Your Walls {CLOSED}

~The Cleanwater Infant Tub with Built-In Digital Thermometer brings a fresh approach to infant bathing~

4moms sent me their innovative Clearwater Infant Tub for the new baby. WOW!!! This tub is amazing!!! I have never seen anything like it. I opened it up and just had to test it out even though the baby isn’t here yet. It is the cleanest, safest way to bathe your infant. First off putting it together was a breeze just a few short steps. I proceeded to test it out. What I love is that the water is never still, it has a constant flow (see clean flow picture), keeping the baby warm the entire bath time. It features a built-in-digital temperature thermometer which constantly reads the temperature so you know baby is safe. I love this, because with my first baby you always have to feel and guess if the water is not too hot. It features a clean water reservoir so you can always access fresh water to rinse or wash off baby. I am so excited to be able to bathe my new baby in this wonderful infant tub. Hands down this is the best Infant Tub on the market.

You can pick up your own online or at your local retailer!

Guess what? You can also join 4Moms as an insider where you can enter contests, get deals, and sign up test products of your own.

Today, 4Moms is giving away a Clearwater Infant Tub to one lucky reader of Real Moms Real Views!

($39.99 value!)

When I found out I was having a little girl, I was thrilled. I knew the first thing I wanted to get for her…a baby bracelet. I have always seen little cute baby girls with chubby wrists sporting the cutest little bracelets. Vanessa at mymommysbracelets has the best selection around, plus she is super amazing to work with. She can customize any bracelet and she can do special requests too! They are all super adorable!

I received a Posh Princess bracelet to review and I was so happy when it arrived. It is so tiny. I can just picture it now on my little girl’s wrist. The pearls are stunning and the crystals really make it sparkle. It also has a grow with me chain so I can make it larger as her wrist grows. This way she can wear it for years to come. It will definitely be a treasured piece in her collection. It will be the perfect accessory for any outfit. LOVE IT!!!

I simply love these cloud decals that they offer and can picture them now on the nursery walls above the crib of a whimsy style room theme.

Stylish and Secure {DISChangers.com Giveaway} CLOSED

DISChangersThe Disc Plate Hanger from DISChangers.com is the invisible way to hang plates on the wall, without hooks or clips. They stick to the back of your plate and your plate is able to hang securely against the wall!DISChangers_logo My girls didn’t really start talking until they were almost two years old (once they turned two, it’s been non-stop chatter!). In the beginning, they were particularly expressive during mealtimes. So when I saw these three plates at cb2 last year, I had to have them because they reminded me of their early speaking days. I wanted to hang them in my dining room but I had no idea how!

DISChangers1

I came across DISChangers.com and was very excited to try out their Disc Plate Hangers. They sent me three that were the right size for my Ooo, Mmm and YUM plates, plus a few more sizes.

DISChangers2

It was so easy to attach the Disc Plate Hangers to my plates. First, I removed the price tag and cleaned the back of the plate. Then I put some water onto the back of the Disc Plate Hanger and gently swirled my fingers around it until it started to feel sticky. Next, I put the Disc Plate Hanger onto the back of the plate and pressed firmly. Then comes the hard part…waiting overnight for the glue to adhere! So the next morning I gave the Disc Plate Hanger a firm tug…yay it was on tight!

We hung them on a small nail and here they are in my dining room! And this is what you see from the side…the Disc Plate Hanger isn’t noticeable at all.

DISChangers3 DISChangers4

If you ever want to remove the Disc Plate Hanger, all you have to do is soak it in warm water and it should come right off without damaging the plate.

Visit the about page on DISChangers.com for tips and information to find out if your hang-up-worthy plates can be used with their Disc Plate Hangers, and what other items you can hang besides plates! You can order from DISChangers.com and I’ve also seen them on Amazon…just measure your plate and find the appropriate Disc Plate Hanger size.

Today, DISChangers.com is giving away… a set of DISChangers for you to use! (you can specify sizes)

Want to Enter to Win? Here’s How:

Letter Perfect {Midwest Creations Giveaway} CLOSED

When we moved to our new home, we considered it a fresh start. We are all about contentment and positivity now! So when I got the chance to review Midwest Creations, who creates personalized letter photo art, I knew what I wanted mine to say: Peace.

MidwestCreations_Peace

It was so great working with Kirsten at Midwest Creations. I got to choose from many different variations of each letter to spell out my word. I had fun choosing out of all the possibilities! All of the photos of everyday objects shaped like words were so lovely, as well as unexpected! Kirsten made the process so easy and straightforward and I love this beautiful new “peace” of art for our new home and new outlook on life.

Kirsten’s Inspirational Series consists of letter art with an encouraging saying underneath…

MidwestCreations_Faith

…and she also makes personalized art with your family name or child’s name.

MidwestCreations_Smith

Kirsten is also willing to work with you should you require further customization. For example, if you’d like a letter to be represented by an object not shown in her current collection of photos, such as a rose for the letter O, she’d be happy to discuss it with you!

To check out Kristen’s past work and for some great ideas, please visit the Midwest Creations Blog!

Picture This! {Alphabet Photography Giveaway} CLOSED

Having decorations on your wall makes your home YOU!  You can display a child’s art work showing that you are a proud parent.  You may have hand crafted items showing off your creativity or love for hand-made items.  You may have a picture of a memorable place or time, showing others what it important to you.  Our home and what is on our walls can say a lot about who we are.

Alphabet Photography can help us proclaim to the world who we are.  Alphabet Photography, a Canada based company, shows us that there is art in the world around us.  Jennifer Blakeley, part owner of the company, spent a large part of 2006-2007 traveling Canada with a goal in mind—to find objects that occur naturally in her surroundings that look like letters of the alphabet. 

You can go to their website, type in a word, choose pictures for each letter, and create a customized piece of art work for your home.  There are over 500 alphabet photos to choose from!  You can also buy individual letters, calendars, or posters.  (Check out the Mayan Ruins at Chichen Itza poster!  I am IN LOVE with this.  Reminds me of going there on my honeymoon.) 

You can purchase items from the Alphabet Photography collection on their website and from a number of retail locations like Meijer Department Stores, Home Sense, Crackerbarrel, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and more.  A custom framed piece can be purchased for between $70-$200. Customers can also purchase the individual letters to frame themselves for just $5 each.

News image

Alphabet Photography sent me an Inspirational Photo College Frame.  It says: “HOME  It takes hands to build a house, but only hearts can build a home – Unknown”  It is 15”x13” and is printed on Professional Grade Crystal Archive Photographic Paper, mounted on wood, framed with a black high quality wood frame.  It is absolutely beautiful!  I love how it looks hanging on my grey wall.  A warm, inviting, and loving home is important to me and this puts my thoughts into a piece of artwork.  Retail Value: $45
