PRETTY LITTLE LIONS

and

C-DOT DESIGN

"Hello World! I'm Jillian aka the Queen Lioness over at Pretty Little Lion Designs. I recently ditched my cubicle in a stuffy office to conquer the world of hair flair. I truly believe an outfit can always be spiced up with a sassy flower clip or headbeand. I enjoy making hair accessories that add a sparkle to the day & makes a woman feel like a pin-up, even if she is just lounging around in her PJ's. While not creating, you can find me stalking a number of blogs {The Shine Project is my first stop}, laughing out loud, singing in the shower, and dancing my butt off."

Isn't she fantastic?!

Here's whats up for grabs from her shop!

The next sponsor on the list is...

C-Dot Designs has everything from earrings to necklaces to note cards.

Beautiful!

"I began blogging after getting married. We had just moved into our house and our washing machine broke, ruining our floor. Soon after, our heater broke. And then our car broke, twice. And then Husband hit a deer. So, I began blogging about these little adventures, more as an outlet for myself as I entered into the newly married world that seemed to be against me. My other outlet, making unique jewelry, headband, gift cards and fun crafts became C(dot) Design. You can go to http://macho-and-tough.blogspot.com/ to read my blog Yeah, that's macho and tough."

Aren't you all lucky today?!

GIVEAWAY

of my SPRING BREAK FAVORITES Day #1

Cute mini wallets, checkbook covers, and everything your little heart desires

brought to you by

ALEXANDRA ROSE

(I just got these gems in the mail this week!)

"When I was pregnant, I desperately needed a hobby. I wasn't 'good' at anything {at least, I didn't feel like I had that special something that belonged to only me}. For my birthday, my wonderfully crafty and talented mother-in-law gave me a sewing machine! After a few lessons from her I was off creating things on my own. At first, I made things like burp cloths and bibs {things every new mommy needs, right?} and then started making other items that I wanted to use myself! I find such excitement in choosing colors and patterns. Since starting my business and my blog, I've had the opportunity to meet so many amazingly sweet and inspirational people...and my journey is just beginning. I finally feel like I found my special something that I LOVE doing!"

Today, you will be entering to win this checkbook cover and mini wallet

from ALEXANDRA ROSE! I seriously LOVE mine!

Fabulous Feet Spa Giveaway!

You ready for Giveaway Day?

Good, because I am too!

You know those days that you crave to go to a spa,

because you seriously just want to be pampered?!

Well I have good news!

Our giveaway today is going to bring

you a spa set...

Made of all natural ingredients that your skin is screaming for!

No traveling or money required!

That's what I'm talking about.

Here's the amazing

ABBEY JAMES CO.

"Hi, my name is Becky Smith, and I am the creator of The Abbey James Co.

My journey into the world of handcrafted bath and body products began when my daughter was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. In my search for more natural treatments of her symptoms, I stumbled upon the health benefits of natural oils, butters, clays, and sea salts. As I researched the many uses of these ingredients, I wondered why I wasn't using them myself! I thought of the way I had neglected my skin over the years, and how, now, in my haste to turn back the clock, I really didn't know what I was putting on my skin at all. I began to read all the ingredient labels on the large array of products that were cluttering my bathroom, and found that most of them provided me with very little nutrients and much more in the way of questionable chemicals and synthetic fillers. Thus, The Abbey James Co. was born!

All of the Abbey James products are made with only the highest quality ingredients that have been specifically chosen for their beneficial qualities. No useless synthetic fillers here! They are made daily from scratch, by me, from start to finish, label design to final, shelf-ready product."

The winner will receive the Fabulous Feet Spa Set!

I now know what I'm getting mama for Mother's Day :)

Lets pass the number of entries that we had on the last one, shall we?!

I don't know about you,

but I am seriously obsessed with headbands.

Oh, you are too?!

LUCKY, I have just the giveaway for you to win!!

Without further delay...

I'd like to introduce

My name is Heather Smith and live in beautiful Southern Oregon!

After seeing the hair flower trend blow up

I decided to try my own version after failed attempts of finding exactly

what I wanted for my own hair.

As a hairstylist and photographer I mixed my creative thoughts

(that overwhelm my mind)

to make something that not only fits right,

doesnt stick out funny or doesnt give you a headache

but something that also looks adorable

and is detailed enough that it catches the attention of others who see you wearing it! {Just.Lovely.Things} started with the rolled rosettes

and I added in the Ruffle Wraps and jewelry..

there are many more things coming soon with the line including:

hair clips, rings, shoe clips and more so get excited!!
