November 11, 2013


Welcome to Our Favorite Things: Blogger Gift Guide!Ten Bloggers, tons of gift
ideas & 10 incredible giveaways (each blogger is giving away their entire
basket of favorite things!!). Be sure and go check out each gift guide &
giveaway and get to know all of these fun bloggers!
I was so excited when Kara-Kae reached out to me last month
about doing this fun collaboration!
I had no trouble at all rounding up a few of my favorite things.
the hard part was GIVING THEM AWAY. lol. I always seem to need another
notebook to fill up or an owl to decorate with… and take 5 candy bars do not
hang around my house in their packaging for very long. BUT…
I used my self control for you my lovelies and hope that you
enjoy these goodies just as much as me. Enter below..I can’t wait to
see who wins and to ship this package of goodies your way!
(US AND CANADIAN RESIDENTS ONLY. sorry world. I love you still!)
I can’t wait to go check out everyone else’s favorite things!
Here’s a round up of mine that are all budget friendly (of course)
and super cute when you group them together.

I figured it only made sense to do my favorite things shopping
MAINLY at Target. Since I pretty much live their and IKEA. :)
Once I put all of these items out on the table it just made me feel happy!
Which is a good thing when you are gifting!

I have a thing for owls. I love them.
The only owl thing I will not do…is owl salt and pepper shakers.
Just can’t do it. BUT.. an owl coin holder??? yes please!
(If you watched our basement makeover with IKEA video, you’ll see
my owl pencil holder. serious cuteness.)
I also am a list maker. I love notebooks. Especially this line at Target.
My all time favorite candle is Sugar Blossom. It is AMAZING.
It’s the only scent I want to buy right now.
I also knew that I had to include jewelry from one of my
favorite shops, Caroline G!
I have a giveaway going on RIGHT NOW with her.
So after you enter to win this one…go try and win that one.
Isn’t the rose necklace GORGEOUS!? It could be yoursssss…..

And because a favorites combo wouldn’t be complete without my FAVORITE Mascara.
Maybelline Full n’ Soft. I wear this every day. Usually the waterproof,
but I know some people don’t like to wear that daily so I got the regular, which I love too.)
It’s an eye lash miracle worker ladies! If you are putting together a makeup bag
of goodies for a friend.. INCLUDE IT! they will love you forever.
Don’t let the awesome price fool you..it’s mascara gold.
Also, anything that smells like vanilla sugar is my favorite…
so the lotion was a must, especially in the winter!
I love paper straws.. We use them on more than just special occasions in our house.
You are very welcome for not eating this candy
IMMEDIATELY after buying it.
the check out lady even taunted me by putting it on the
checkout desk instead of in the bag. (cruel.)
I’m really into trying to send out more snail mail lately…
so I thought these cute thank you cards were the perfect addition.
We all have people to thank in our lives for big and little things…
November is the perfect time to show your thankfulness with a hand written note!…
while you eat your take 5. just don’t get chocolate smudges
on the card and no one will know.

Thanks for checking out my favorite things!
This year, for your gift giving, think about putting together a fun gift basket!
It was really fun pulling things that I thought would make all of you smile!
Good luck and be sure to hop around to check out all
the favorite things and enter all the fun giveaways!
