Blog Makeover

Hi There everyone!

Thank you for participating in this great giveaway! We really appreciate all of the great comments, and kind words you have left for us and our featured artist Giggles & Grins Bowtique (you guys are too good to us). And we especially appreciate all of you who have decided to follow our blog! As cheesy as it may sound, it really is a great honor to us to get new followers.

So, to thank you for your sweetness, we have decided to give you something sweet to look at! We know you love us just the way we are, and we know that you would never leave us just because we gained a few pounds, but we feel that we have become a little saggy around the eyes, and the love handles we acquired during the holidays are still flappin around. Yes, we feel it may be time for a makeover, a blog makeover that is.

So for the next few days we are going to be on the HTML treadmill getting fierce and fabulous just for you! So come back soon to see our new look.

While you’re waiting for us to get done primping, you can scroll down to the post below and check out the featured artist, and enter the drawing. (if you haven’t already). And don't forget to leave your email address, or we won't be able to let you know if you win!

And if you have already entered, don’t fret, we got you a magazine to read while you wait for us to get out of the bathroom, we will be out soon, we swear:)

If you don't like magazines, then hop on over to Etsy and check out some of our new candles!

Thanks again!

Featured Artist (Contest Closed-Winner Announced)

Hi Everyone! First of all, thanks for coming to our blog! This is our first feature and we hope everyone joins in for the fun & goodies! We jumped the gun a little bit by posting the contest details at the Etsy shop last night, and we just couldn't wait until 2pm to start the fun, so here we go.......

Our guest of honor this week is Giggles & Grins Bowtique! I chose this particular shop because I have made several purchases here and have always been 110% happy! Dawn Wilcox is the talented and wonderful seller behind Giggles & Grins Bowtique, she makes beautiful and unique necklaces from recycled dominoes and scrabble tiles, as well as, cute little hair bows for girls. My twelve-year-old daughter has become addicted to Dawns Twilight inspired bottle cap and scrabble tile necklaces; I have purchased several for her and one for my cousin, and they absolutely love them!! I love the price and quality of Dawn's work and I highly recommend Giggles & Grins Bowtique to anyone looking for a one of a kind, high quality necklace, or hair bow.

Here are some of our favorite items from Giggles & Grins Bowtique

Remember when we said that there would be a surprise? Well here it is!

Go to Giggles & Grins Bowtique and browse through Dawns awesome handmade products

Come back to our blog, and tell us which wonderful item you dig the most (you can only choose one).

Your comment will enter you into a drawing to receive the item you have chosen! Be sure to leave your email address in the comments, entries without email address will not be considered.
