July Sponsor Spotlight!

Sunday, August 5, 2012



Happy Sunday Everyone! I hope you had a fabulous weekend. Mine has been pretty mellow and involved planting some flowers, eating healthy treats and watching the Olympics. While we're already almost a week into August, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank my wonderful sponsors!

Since sponsors can purchase ad space any day of the month, you'll notice many are still running into the month of August since their ad space began after the middle of the month while others were showing in my sidebar until the end of July. A few have some great discounts for you as well which you can find below!




                                           Shabby Apple


I know that many of you are fond of the Shabby Apple line. If you haven't heard of them, they have such a lovely collection of not only dresses but skirts, tops, swimwear, jewelry and they even have dresses for young girls and maternity wear too! They are currently running a site-wide sale offering 20% off everything! Use code: SUMMER20



Layla Grayce



Have you ever visited Layla Grayce? I'm a huge fan of their online shop! If you haven't seen their goods before, they offer gorgeous items for women, babies, children and the home. Everything from lighting and jewelry to cribs and monogrammed dishware. This shop is filled with everything girly and delightful.




Stella & Dot



If you haven't stumbled upon Stella & Dot yet, you simply must pop by their online jewelry shop! They were a favorite of Emily Maynard while on The Bachelorette. Their pieces are affordable and you're going to love them! Looking for a side business to make some extra money in this economy? Did you know that Stella & Dot offers 3 different starter kit options to launch your very own fashion business by becoming a Stylist? You'll get hundreds of dollars worth of gorgeous jewelry pieces for a fraction of the cost! You can run your own business from home-perfect for stay-at-home moms, working women who are looking for extra income or those who want to expand their accessory wardrobe!




Lot 26 Studios


Lot 26 Studios features a wide range of wall art which includes family rules signs, city signs, wall decals, canvas wall art, memo boards and more! Customize any space with inexpensive and unique art that suits your style! Perfect for dorm rooms or temporary spaces such as apartments, these works of art add a chic look and a lot of personality to any room and are easily removable. One of my personal favorites is this chalkboard wall decal.



Paper Culture


While Paper Culture has a vast array of modern, fun stationery, what sets them apart is their offering of bamboo wall art. Create gorgeous customized pieces that proudly display a family monogram, your favorite wedding photo or go for something more playful like their counting board or the alphabet to add some whimsy to a young one's bedroom. Use code: ECOMOD to get $5 off your first order!



All of My Love for All of My Days


Danette Dillon is the writer behind her personal blog titled 'All My Love for All My Days', she is a mother, wife and lover of Christ. She is passionate about helping hurting people, sharing her own journey through life and loving others. Who doesn't need more love in their life?

The Intentional Minimalist


I just love the focus of Kristin's blog, The Intentional Minimalist. She features farm-to-table recipes to encourage cooking with local, seasonal and fresh produce. While her blog primarily focuses on recipes created from her local Community Supporter Agriculture (CSA) she also writes about minimalist natural skin care, homemade cleaning supplies, keeping a streamlined minimalist kitchen and living in the raw.
