On the Third Day of Christmas: The Shabby Boutique Giveaway

The owner of The Shabby Boutique has so generously decided to giveaway several items in the Sarah Simplifies Christmas in July event. Today I'm sharing the first one with you. I must confess that I'm a huge fan of the whole shabby style! I think its because I was brought up having a "thing" for roses and roses figure so prominently in the Shabby style. My middle name is Rose after my Mom's paternal grandmother and its also my daughters name as well. When I was born my dad had a tea rose corsage made and put on my hospital gown (see what I mean when I say I was brought up having a "thing" for roses???).

So lets take a peek at what The Shabby Boutique is giving away today!

Don't you just love it??!!!?? It makes me what to have Christmas rolling around the corner instead of dealing with highs in the high 80's! So you want to know how to win this lovely right? Ask and ye shall receive!

On the second day of Christmas- Loriette's Grammy Giveaway

I know y'all know about my love for Etsy and you're going to see LOTS of Etsy shops in the Christmas in July giveaway. Etsy is so awesome in so many ways. It is crafted items that are made with care- isn't that the kind of item you want to buy- and give? Our next Christmas in July Giveaway is from Loriette's Grammy. Barbara is the owner of Loriette's Grammy and was kind enough to do an interview as part of the giveaway. Grab a cup of tea (iced is ok!) and join us for awhile!

-What is your name? Barbara Redmon, or Barbilu
-How long have you been selling on Etsy? About 2 years
-How did you pick your shops name? This shop is based on my first grand child's middle name, and the name is a tribute to her two great grand mothers. Mariette and Lola, making Loriette. I do wish I had thought this out better, as it would have been Loriette's Designs.
-What is your favorite item in your shop? This is my favorite thing in my shop and has been for quite some time. I would love to put it on my bed and would if it were not for the husband.
http://www.etsy.com/listing/32312841/ooak-shabby-chic-in-pink-and-grays-throw
-What is your favorite holiday? Christmas
-What is your favorite Christmas memory or tradition? Christmas Morning with the children. The happy faces and joy of anyone receiving a gift that you have picked out especially for them or created especially for them is what makes it all so fun.
-What is your favorite Christmas song or carol? Jingle Bells and We Wish You a Merry Christmas, well there are more too... but you did say a favorite.. I love lots of them.
-How long have you been crafting? How did you get started? All my life in some way or another. I grew up with a very creative mother. She started sewing at age 3. She was from Belgium and they had a flat in Paris, where she would go with sketch pad in hand to the designer stores and go home and make the outfit. I am not as good as her in the clothing making, but I do like to make my way in the design of household items and my brooches etc.
-What inspires or motivates you? Everything, I love flowers and the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, but odd things inspire me as well... and I strive to recycle/upcycle/repurpos as much as I can. Other things that inspire me, Babies, dancing girls, the color of food, lollipops, blueberries, pigtails, the texture of nature, like rocks, dirt, moss growing on a tree and the list goes on and on.
-What advice would you give someone wanting to sell on Etsy? List every day if you can at different times in the day and take great pictures.
-Do you have a favorite Etsy shop (other than yours).. way to many of them and they are always changing. A few that I find I keep finding something I like and what do you know it is so and so.
-What do you do, if anything, to try to live a greener lifestyle? Oh, drive my family nuts...compost all food and paper and some other things... also recycle everything I can... from the container the strawberries come in to cereal boxes (I use to ship things in them) to tiny pieces of fabric. I grow some of my own food and I buy green/organic as much as I can. I just had a guy come and remove the bees from a hornets hive from my home in as humane a way as possible. They freeze them and milk them of their venom and this does not kill them. I found it very interesting. My husband would have loved to kill them, but I would not let him.
-If you could go on vacation anywhere where would you go? To a cabin on a lake and bring my sewing machine and crafting materials, a book to read and fresh food... and by myself would be good. I love my alone time.
-Do you have a season or a favorite that is your favorite to create for? I love to create for eclectic people, and when I find someone who enjoys my things then I am inspired to get even more creative

So would you like to see what Barbara is giving away?

Love it don't you???? :) I knew you would! Barbara makes the most awesome brooches, bracelets and baubles! You SO need to go to her shop Loriette's Grammy and check things out! I'm just jealous of anyone that can make yo- yo's! I'm relatively crafty but those just don't happen for me! So, in the spirit of giving Barbara is giving away this darling brooch and without further ado I'm going to tell you how to win it!

On the first Day of Christmas.... Mudpuppy Review & Giveaway!

Thanks so much for being patient! I really had this all set up & ready to roll on July 1st. Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans right? My mom gets epidural cortisone shots for her back. Well, the last one went awry and she started suffering from spinal fluid headaches as well as her legs not wanting to work. The Dr. decided against a blood patch instead seeing if it would heal itself. Thankfully for the most part it has. My mom isn't 100% but she's WAY better than she was! Now...on to the good stuff, right????

This month we're doing an ENTIRE month of Christmas giveaways! The first up is an oh so cute Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer cube puzzle from Mudpuppy! This thing is so darling! My daughter is quite the puzzle aficionado and its an area that she has absolutely no delays in. Therefore, I LOVE shopping for new puzzles for her. Also, my family is a bit over the top when it comes to Christmas. I knew I had this Christmas in July event coming up and when I saw all of the super cute Christmas items Mudpuppy has to offer I knew I'd found a fit! Mudpuppy has sticker scene sets, advent calendars & puzzles. I love knowing that I can get something for my daughter that actually has a good chance of being liked more than the box it comes in (c'mon- all of you parents know what I mean!). Here are a few pics of Mudpuppys offerings:

and this little cutie that Mudpuppy sent me to review! Its also going to come live with a lucky Sarah Simplifies reader!

I've got to say that first of my daughter loved this puzzle. Secondly this isn't your cheapo might last for a few weeks kind of puzzle. This was a great, bright printed graphic on a nice thick base. This puzzle can definitely make it through a few holiday seasons and most likely more than one child! So, you want to know how to get this puzzle? Well, I'm here to serve!

ABC's of Yoga for Kids Review & Giveaway!

I started trying to get my daughter into yoga about a year ago. I'm one of those people that would like to be good at yoga but I'm still a work in progress. That said I also know that yoga can be beneficial to kids in SO many ways! It helps them academically as well as physically. Honestly, I think anyone would be hard pressed to find a downside to yoga, especially yoga for kids. One of the first people that agreed to a review and giveaway when I started Sarah Simplifies was Teresa Anne Power of ABC's of Yoga for Kids. Teresa is a Yoga Instructor and Author of
the AWARD WINNING book, The ABCS of Yoga for Kids. Teresa sent me a copy of her book The ABCs of Yoga for Kids. This book is amazing!!! One of the problems I had when I first started buying yoga for kids videos for my daughter is that they videos I had didn't actually have a segment that just showed the different yoga positions. Since I'm by no means a yoga expert I couldn't really show my daughter the right positions so we just muddled our way through (Meditation is so much more my thing!). I would have given my eyeteeth when I first started introducing my daughter to yoga! Things would have been so much smoother! Then we can go into the fact that the illustrations (by Kathleen Rietz) are GORGEOUS!!! The book is literally an ABC book that shows a different position (or positions depending on the letter and available positions) for each letter. It was so nice to look at my daughter and say "lets be a frog" and show her a still picture!!! This book is going to be part of our library for a long, long time! Its also going to be my go to birthday gift for awhile!

Now, for the really fun part! Teresa Anne Power is giving one incredibly lucky Sarah Simplifies reader a copy of her ABC Yoga for Kids 24 x 36 in. Poster! In addition to that Sarah Simplifies readers are getting free shipping from Teresa's website HERE You just need to enter the code SIMPLIFY

Zehn Naturals Tee Shirt giveaway!

I’m so excited! Its time for the first giveaway here at Sarah Simplifies! I’ve had a lot of fun contacting companies and shops and met some wonderful people in the process! I have a lot of great stuff in store for more readers that I’m sure you’re going to love so let’s get this party started!

I was given the opportunity to review a shirt from Zehn Naturals. I was really excited about this company from the beginning because they carry 2 size groups that you don’t find often in Organic Tees- Women’s Plus Sizes and Children’s (past a size 4T or 6 it’s really hard to find organic tee’s and clothing for kids).

Just a few things about Zehn Naturals that I feel are well worth mentioning:
-all the shirts are 100% Certified Organic Cotton Printed with Earth Friendly Inks
-For every tee Shirt sold Zehn Naturals plants a tree- Really how cool is that?
- 10% Pre-tax profit donation policy that includes donations for Education, Arts, Healthcare and the Environment
-The tag that accompanies the tee is on Seed paper. (I love this concept!)

As for the actual tee Shirt that was sent to me it absolutely meets every expectation I could have and then a few more! The shirt is as soft as all get out which is usual with organic cotton but you really do need to feel it to experience it! The printing on the shirt is nice and clear and looks like it will most definitely hold up in the washing process. Something that the Princess loved is that the shirt is tagless. I think I’ve mentioned that my daughter is a special needs child and one of her issues is sensory integration disorder. I have spent A LOT of time removing tags from clothing. Zehn Naturals tee Shirts are tagless with the pertinent information printed instead so this made me a very happy mom! I’ve got to say that based on my experience with Zehn Naturals that I will not only buy from them in the future but I can also wholeheartedly recommend them to others! So, you’re asking yourself how you can check out Zehn Naturals? Well here are the important links!

Now are you ready for the good stuff? Zehn Naturals is going to give one Sarah Simplifies reader a tee shirt of their choice! Yep! One lucky reader is going to get to pop over to Zehn Naturals and pick their favorite tee shirt and in a few days it will be in their mailbox.
