**CLOSED**Bosheree Giveaway!

BOSHEREE

About the shop--

My name is Aimee and I'm a stay at home mommy, a wife to Leif, and have Jesus Christ as my personal Savior! We have been blessed with three beautiful kids, Reece, Shelby and Bo, which is how we came up with the name for our business...Bosheree!! We are expecting our fourth baby (a baby boy!!) in January 2011 and not sure how we will be able to fit his name into the business name now...oops!! My husband is a professional graphic designer and has been in the sign industry for over 15 years, and I'm a fairly hands-on crafty person, so we put our talents together and started our wall decor business. We have been in business for over two years now and we absolutely love it!! We hand paint each board and then use computer generated stencils so that the writing is crisp and clear. It's so exciting to pull that stencil away to see the finished product!! We feature handmade solid wood signs in a variety of designs and styles. Our feature product is our Family Name & "Established In" signs. We come up with new designs often and love doing custom requests as well. If you have a custom idea in mind just send us a convo or email us at sales [!at] bosheree.com and we'd love to work with you to create your perfect keepsake!! These signs make awesome gifts!!

------------------------

I got the honor of reviewing a Bosheree sign of my very own! WOW! I was so impressed when it arrived! Right now I have it on top of my bookcase until I find the perfect spot to hang it!

How great is that!?

Looking for something to give to that certain someone who has everything!?

**CLOSED***UPDATE- GIVEAWAY*Mollie is famous..{Photoweavers Review}

Ok, so she is not really famous to anyone but us...lol.

Seriously though...you would think you would have to be famous to have your image on a blanket, right!? NO, you don't! Just go to Photoweavers.com and check out what you can do with your photos!

I was contacted by Photoweavers and asked to review a photo blanket.

I honestly did not know that this site existed. The thought of being able to take a picture and make it into a blanket got me all giddy! I knew exactly which picture I wanted to make into a blanket!

Isn't that the sweetest Boston face you have ever seen?

I went to the site and uploaded my photo, added a border, her name and it was done! It was so simple. I honestly thought it would be some huge deal.

This video shows how the blankets are made. You have to watch this.

I am just fascinated with the process! Wow!

The blanket arrived super fast. It came so fast that it arrived before I even thought to start looking for it!

I know you all are dying to see the final product. Here it is--

As I sit here and type this post I have this blanket on me. I absolutely love it!

I really can't tell you how proud I am to have this blanket! I always have a "blankie" on me.

Now I have the most special Blankie ever! I was blown away by the quality of this blanket.

I couldn't believe how crisp the photo is!

What a wonderful way to showcase your favorite picture!

Imagine giving a photo blanket of the grandkids to your parents!

How about surprising a new mom with a photo blanket of her new addition!?

This is such a special blanket, it would make a special gift.

I really can't say enough about this product and the Photoweavers site.

I am so honored that they thought enough of me to let me review one of their photo blankets.

I was offered a free blanket to review with NO STRINGS attached. Josh Evans (the one who sent the email) made sure that I understood that if I didn't want to I didn't have to mention it on my blog. He was so confident that I would absolutely LOVE the product that I would WANT to share it with my readers.

He was right.

I am so thankful that I have this keepsake.

It is so special to me. I am thankful that I now know about this site,

and I wanted all of you to know about it too.

Photoweavers is offering my readers a special discount!

Shaklee Review and Giveaway!

SHAKLEE

The first time I heard of Shaklee was when I visited a wonderful blog called HOUSE OF GRACE.

Bonnie makes cleaning look easy and fun. I found myself going back again and again to get advice on cleaning tips, etc. You have to check out her cleaning schedule. It may seem daunting at first, but Shaklee products make it easier. ( I know that sounds so much like an infomercial, but I am so serious when I say that! )

 It's really fun to clean when you only have to use minimal effort to get the job done. The cleaners do the work for you. Read more about Bonnie's Shaklee site HERE.

I read the info about Shaklee cleaners and how much money you can save...and well, the rest is history. I am converted. I will not buy harsh chemical cleaners any more. I have been converting all of my household cleaners to green products, and when I found Shaklee I was overjoyed with the choices! Everything you need is there...AND it's eco-friendly...AND it's economical!

Let's talk about the savings. Bear with me, this is going to be quick. I won't overwhelm you with numbers. It's pretty simple.  

You would have to spend $3400 to get the same amount of clean in the Get Clean Starter Kit.

Now, let me talk a little bit about why this product is eco-friendly. When you buy the Get Clean starter kit you keep 108 pounds of packaging waste from landfills and eliminate 248 pounds of greenhouse gas.

Now that's not only smart, but that's cool.

On Bonnie's blog you can read about LOTS of reasons why you should use Shaklee Products. It's a great read...you would not believe what cleaners and products out there have toxins in them! We don't want toxins in our house, do we? We most certainly don't want to CLEAN our house with toxins. **SHUDDER**

When I first got the products I was amazed by how little of the product you need to actually clean your house! In the spray bottles I followed the directions (right on the bottle) and mixed the appropriate amount of

Basic H2® Organic Super Cleaning Concentrate with water. The bottle of Basic H2 is going to last a LONG time! I like that!

On to the pictures! I want you to see how great these cleaners work!

(When you see the before pictures....Don't judge. lol) 

Feel free to click on the pictures to enlarge- if you must. lol

 As ashamed as I am to show you my oven, I feel I must. Look if you dare, but be warned...it's not pretty!

I was so excited with the results that I cleaned EVERYTHING in the house that I could get my hands on! My house was so clean when I finished. After I cleaned there was no harsh chemical smell. My house just sparkled and smelled clean.

BUY IT:

You can purchase any Shaklee product HERE.

A penguin keeps my son healthy...seriously. (REVIEW)

No, I haven't lost my mind (well, that depends on who you ask!) 

My son received a Crane Penguin Cool mist humidifier to try out. 

Let me tell you about it, and a little about Talon's history with illness.

Talon was born at 35 weeks. It is a struggle to keep Talon well. He will catch any cold within a 50 mile radius. Every year since he was born (it's been 7 years) he gets the Croup in the fall. EVERY YEAR he ends up in the E.R. struggling to breathe and receives breathing treatments. It's scary for us and for him. Actually, it's terrifying. I dread this time of year.

I have heard about Crane's Cool mist humidifiers and wondered if this was actually something I needed to try. I mean, I have to do something different this year. The regular humidifiers weren't cutting it.

I actually contacted Crane and told them about Talon's situation. They offered to send me a humidifier at no cost to me. I'm serious! They even sent me info on how the humidifier helps to relieve colds and flus, as well as info on how the humidifier may even help PREVENT illness.

Talon picked out the Penguin humidifier. (I would have gone with the frog, but whatever)

When it came in you would have thought that it was Christmas! He was totally in awe of this thing!

Before bed he makes sure we have his humidifier on!

So far we have had the humidifier for a couple of months and Talon has had no croup episodes. Now, I know fall is just beginning...but it's at the very beginning of fall when Talon starts his croup symptoms. This year..NOTHING...NADA...NO CROUP. I say that as I cross my fingers that this will continue to work.

The humidifier is ultra silent. The cool mist can be seen coming out of the penguin's mouth ( how cute)..and so far it's working it's magic! I had to blog about this and let everyone know how great the cool mist humidifiers are. I know that I am not the only one that struggles to keep my child well. If there are ANY alternatives to medicine, I always want to try that first. The humidifiers are a PERFECT solution.

Here's some excerpts from the info that Crane sent to me. (They say it better than I do)

One of the most important things when a child is sick is a good night’s sleep.  Crane offers just that, a peaceful night’s sleep.  Crane Cool Mist Ultrasonic Humidifiers are whisper quiet, do not require a filter, runs up to 24 hours and has an automatic shut off for when the tank is empty.  The humidifier emits up to 2.1 gallons of moisture output a day.  Crane's ultrasonic cool mist humidifiers are safe for children because they do not heat the water with hot elements that could possibly burn children.

A March 2009 study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences found evidence that humidity in the air reduces the survival and transmission of flu viruses.  Dry air not only chaps your lips, hands and dries nasal passages but dry air also allows viruses to spread quickly from person to person.  The finding suggests that using a humidifier may be a good idea in places where the spread of influenza poses a threat, as long as sensitivity to moisture-loving mold and spores isn't a problem.

Cool Mist humidifiers have been pediatricians’ recommendation to the last year’s FDA withdrawal of children’s over the counter cold and cough medicine.  Humidifiers not only add moisture to relieve nasal congestion and dry itchy coughs but also may fight future flu viruses.

Crane’s energy efficient Ultrasonic Cool Mist Humidifiers run quietly up to 11 hours emits 2.5 gallons of moisture with automatic shut off.  The bright designs add a bit of fun and whimsy to any room.  Crane Humidifiers ($39.99-$49.99) are currently sold at Target, Bed, and Bath and Beyond, Babies R Us.  Visit www.crane-usa.com for all of Crane’s products.

Thank you Crane for sending me this product to review. My son thanks you too!
