Stella & Dot Give Away

October is Breast Cancer awareness month.  I think every month we are all aware of how cancer has devastated many families.  I know first hand friends.  For the month of October, Stella & Dot is selling the above Tribute bracelet with 20% of the proceeds going towards research.  I just got my bracelet in the mail and it is really cute! Rose gold with faceted crystals.  It is selling for $36. 

Tribute bracelet with other Stella & Dot bracelets

My goal is to sell 50 for the month of October and I need your help only being half way. 

 I thought I would make it even more enticing than just having one adorable bracelet. How? Well when you purchase the bracelet, I will put your name in a drawing for a $50 dollar Stella & Dot credit to pick out whatever you desire!!!!!  The odds are, I will probably only get 5 to 10 of you interested so the odds are on your side!  With half the Stella & Dot line being under $50, you will be sure to find something to add to your wardrobe.  I will reveal the winner November 1st! 

You can support such an important cause while looking fashionable ladies!  To purchase the Tribute bracelet which will automatically put you in the drawing just leave me a comment or email me and I will put your order in! Then, make sure to check out the Stella & Dot website to take a look at some of their other items, because they could be yours on November 1st!

Here is a picture of my Mom & I.  My mom taught me to never use the word "hate."  But I use it often when speaking of cancer.

You will never be forgotten Mom.  Love always....

My Graphic DIY & first Give Away!

Last week I posted about black and white graphic/abstract art. You can see the post here.  I mentioned  I purchased a piece for my own home which I am waiting to get framed. Framing is expensive ladies! While waiting to bite the bullet and dish out the cash for a frame the size I need, I decided to create my own abstract piece. I wanted to add a smaller piece to my kitchen gallery wall which is a work in progress. With just a ten dollar bill and endless ideas I created this little guy.

My inexpensive supplies...

* Artist's canvas (2) pack of 8" by 10." price -$4.59
* Liquitex acrylic paint tube. price - 2.99
* Paint brush - already owned.

And this is where this little guy now lives.

I now own an original!

This is where you come in. The canvas I used came in a two pack and I only needed one. I thought I would paint another piece and give it away to one of you! Now I won't be offended if you don't want it. The last time I painted I was in kindergarten, but if you do, just leave a comment on where you would put the piece and I will choose one of you. Then you will have an original piece of art as well heeheee.

XO,
Heather
