To Gild The Lily- Personalized Iphone Case {review & giveaway}

In a world that is becoming more technological advanced, it is becoming harder and harder to find a high quality product at a great price. Finding the right case for me can be extremely difficult. I have become OBSESSED with personalized items and this is why I am SO IN LOVE with this new product.

Back in August, my sweet husband bought me the Iphone 5 for my birthday. Obviously I had to find the perfect case for my new phone! My first instinct was to contact this amazing shop on ETSY that I love... To Gild The Lily. They offer incredible products at amazing prices.

To Gild the Lily is an Etsy shop that offers a wide variety of iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Samsung cases. I have picked a couple of their products to show as an example!

I LOVE the idea of having a picture on your case. Whether you are newly married, just had a baby, or want to show off your grandkids, you cannot go wrong with a photo case! This phone case is $22.99 + tax.

This pink monogrammed damask case is only... $13.99!!! You cannot beat this price!

Who doesn't like chevron prints??? You can't beat the price of $13.99 for a monogrammed, personalized, and high quality case!!

I tried to get a good photo, but this does not do the case justice. I LOVE the vibrant colors that To Gild the Lily used on my new cute case! I especially love my new initials!!! 

 My iPhone case is complete with my new  initials! One very lucky reader will have the opportunity to win phone case of your choice from To Gild The Lily! 

The winner will have the choice of: 

1. Design
2. Case Type (iPhone or Samsung Galaxy i9100)
3. Color

Mommy's Special Necklace {Review & Giveaway}

Five years ago, I gained my first nephew. Although at the time I did not know him, he is my little man who I love very deeply. My sister-in-law gave birth to Caden on January 9th, 2008. I had the privilege of meeting Caden when he was 9 months old. I have adored him ever since. He is so unique and so smart. Four years later, I gained a niece. Callie Cavanaugh was welcomed into this world on October 29th, 2012. Although these two sweet babies are not my own, I love them with all my heart and they are my world. 

One of my favorite shops, Designing Tomorrow, gave me the opportunity to review a necklace that can be for an aunt, grandmother, sister, mom, or whoever you may choose. This particular necklace has my niece and nephews birthday's on it with their birthstone color. I ABSOLUTELY love it! This necklace is about 18 inches long and she makes every necklace different and unique which is more personable.

 I listed below some other amazing necklaces by Designing Tomorrow. She does amazing work and can customize to just about anything. She lets you pick what you want and the color pendant of your choice. She has many different pendants for your personalized necklace. Here are some choices: flower, heart, baby feet, cross, football, paw print, baby carriage, tennis ball, bird and much much more! 

 I LOVE the products Designing Tomorrow produces. All her necklaces are made of stainless steel. Stainless Steel is a much better quality than a silver nickel pendant. This necklace is hypo-allergenic, rust free, and tarnish free!

Any lucky person will LOVE this necklace!!!

Designing Tomorrow-"Teach•Love•Inspire" Necklace (Review & Giveaway}

Disclosure: I received no monetary compensation for this post. I received a complimentary product for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own.




Since school will be starting in a few short weeks, we decided to host our first {official} product review and giveaway!  I was given the opportunity to review the "Teach•Love• Inspire" necklace from the Etsy Shop, Designing Tomorrow. 


First, I already fell in love with this necklace as soon as I saw the design.  I immediately knew this would be the perfect necklace to wear as I begin student teaching.  Since, I am extremely passionate about teaching, this necklace will help display my passion for other teachers, students, and parents to see. 

Teach Love Inspire Necklace with Apple Charm and Bead

$20

(As taken from the Designing Tomorrow Etsy Shop)

This necklace is special because it is made with a Stainless Steel Pendant vs. a silver plated nickel pendant. Stainless Steel is hypo-allergenic, rust-free, and tarnish-free. It is extremely durable and a very affordable alternative to sterling silver! 

This necklace has a hand-stamped pendant with "Teach • Love • Inspire" stamped on it. The necklace is about 18 inches long. The chain is a beautiful silver plated chain. The necklace is embellished with a bead. The colors of the bead is your choice. 

 **The CHAIN of this necklace is NOT Stainless Steel. I use a high quality silver plated chain.** 

Since this necklace is hand stamped, there might be a slight variation in the placement of the letters. This adds to the charm, character, and individuality of the piece of jewelry.  

This necklace is perfect for me!  I have {very} sensitive skin, and I cannot wear "cheap" jewelry, because it irritates my skin.  Since the pendent is made from stainless steel, and the necklace is a high quality, silver plated chain, I am able to wear the necklace with no problems.   

My BEAUTIFUL necklace from Designing Tomorrow!

I have only had this necklace a few days, and I LOVE it! I have received so many compliments about how shiny and beautiful it looks.

This necklace is absolutely perfect for your favorite teacher!  You can even customize it with your favorite color, or school color.
