Giveaway | $50 Minted Giveaway

June 12, 2015 by Whitney 13 Comments

Last week I shared my favorite Minted designs for spring and summer weddings. I also promised to host a giveaway, featuring the company. Well today is the day! The good people over at Minted have given me a $50 credit to gift to one special reader. All you have to do is follow the rules below, and be sure to leave a comment.

In case you need some help figuring out what to purchase with your $50, here are the two items I ordered (c/o Minted). I figured hubby and I could use the two prints to hang in our new apartment. We’re not moving in until the end of the summer, but we’ve seen the space and are really excited to decorate!

The 1st print I ordered was just the print; I want to add my own picture frame to it. I think it’s really cute and will be perfect to sit on our table near the front door. The last print includes one of hubby’s favorite scriptures. I decided to have that one framed and I ordered a larger size. I know we’ll be hanging that one on the wall.


So tell me, what would you do with a $50 Minted credit? What do you think about my orders? Let me know!

Personal Style Monday + Audible Amazon Giveaway

December 8, 2014 by Whitney 37 Comments

Happy Monday to you! This weekend was all about cleaning and relaxing for me. I did something a little differnt with my hair (pics below) and I also pulled out most of Christmas decor. While relaxing, I made time to catch up on my Netflix watching, as well as my reading. As I mentioned in this post, I’ve become a huge fan of audiobooks lately. It’s just makes it so easy to read these days. During the car ride to Delaware for Thanksgiving, I was actually reading an audiobook. I’m addicted!

With the new year approaching, I’m looking forward to using (and subscribing to) Audible. This audiobook site is absolutely perfect for every occasion and event throughout the year. You can even gift a yearly subscription to the book lover on your list. Talk about the perfect gift! Not only are audiobooks perfect for book lovers like me, but they’re also great for children. My tween sister does a lot of traveling for pageants and acting, so something like an Audible yearly subscription would be perfect for those long car, train or plane rides.

Right now, you can check out Audible’s gold offer for a chance to save 50% off! This offer gives you the first three months of your subscription for only $7.49, which is half the usual price. There are also several Audible coupon codes and other ways to save as well.

Before I go, be sure to check out this amazing Audible giveaway me and a few other lovely bloggers are hosting below! One winner will receive a $200 Amazon gift card! FYI, Audible is an Amazon company.  This giveaway is only open to U.S. residents and will run from December 8th – December 12th. Until tomorrow, stay blessed and be safe…XO!
