Bebe and Alice Review and Giveaway! (CLOSED)

This giveaway is part of the Bloggy Carnival ! Be sure to check out other great giveaways there!




I am so excited about the Bebe and Alice giveaway. I first want to share with you what a wonderful person Heather, the Bebe and Alice owner, is. She has been great to work with and I am sure she gives all of her customers the same care.
Bebe and Alice has a wonderful selection. Heather sent me a Lavender Bird. The Lavender Birds are stuffed with Lavender and polyfill. They smell wonderful! I attached a ribbon to mine and hung it in my Laundry room. It is so cute. These birds can also be used to help your wardrobe or car smelling wonderful! Right now Bebe and Alice's Etsy Store has Lavender Lovebird's for Valentines Day. These are a must see.
I don't want to forget to mention how the package arrived. When I opened the box I found a smaller box with a cute tag attached to it. I had to take a picture of her wonderful packaging. I feel comforted to know that Bebe and Alice mail their items ready to be presented. You don't have to worry how it will arrive when sending an order as a gift.



Heather first began to teach herself how to sew when her husband presented her with a sewing machine for Christmas several years ago. Her sister then asked her if she could sew a slipcover for a vintage ottoman. Heather agreed and it turned out beautifully.

Heather's first stock of aprons were sold at a private school fundraise where she doated 25% of total sales to the school. She sold almost all of them. This is where her journey began and developed into her own bussiness selling not only aprons but bags, shopping and shoulder bags, children’s clothing, hats, plush toys, and more! One of Heathers favorite creations are her custom orders using sentimental fabrics. Some examples are when a mom may want to use some saved fabric from her bridesmaid dresses from her wedding to create something for her daughter. Or a grandmother may have some vintage fabric from her mother's stash that she wants me to make aprons for all her grown daughters. Heather can also make girls halter dresses from men's dress shirts. These are called "The Shirt Off Dad's Back" . These seem to be some of her most loved creations.
Heather also like to include little “flower” pins (brooches) with each purchase or whatever she has on hand…no requests.

Discount: Bebe and Alice is giving all Catch the Drift readers FREE SHIPPING on any order with the code “snow” added to the message line of the purchase. She will refund the shipping cost after purchase via Paypal.

Giveaway: One winner will recieve this Bebe and Alice's children aprons. The measurements are: 10" across, 20" apron strings, and 15" long. Size 3/4.
(I must also mention that there is a matching adult apron to go with this smaller version. This makes the perfect Mommy and Me apron set! You can find this item as her store.)

What's for Dinner?

So are any of you like me and always asking yourself, "What's for dinner"? This is of course after the fact that dinner should already be prepared or in the oven.

I never know what I am going to cook for dinner. The day always flies by to quick. At times I have wished I were a movie star so that I could have my own personal chef prepare my meals. It would at least be helpful if my meal plan was all written out for me. Even better is if the meals were healthy, then I could maybe get rid of those final baby pounds. That would be the life!



Well guess what? I just heard of this marvelous website which does exactly that. It has all of your healthy dinner meals planned for the week. Of course there is a fee, but surprisingly it didn't seem all that much with all that it included. For $9.99 a month you receive these benefits.

1. Daily Meal Planner
2. Live Healthier
3. Recipe Tool Box
4. Save Precious Time
5. Shopping List Tool
6. Eat Better
7. Nutritional Content
8. Save Money
9. Rate the Recipe
10. Get New Recipes
11. Message Boards
12. Eat Balanced Meals

You must check this out! The site is called "My Gourmet Gal". I contacted the owner and it sounds like there will be a FREE 14 day trial coming up. I will defiantly keep you updated. Until then take a look around and let me know what you think!

The Winners are.....

I know you are all so excited. I am even excited!
So I used Random.org to select a random winner. I first want to thank all of you who have entered these wonderful giveaways. I hope you keep these wonderful stores and products in mind for the future. Thanks you all who became followers and subscribers, you all have motivated me to work harder in finding products I know you will love. Thank you, Thank you!
(Now if that wasn't the greatest speach I ever heard!)
Before I announce to you the winners I just needed to inform you of a couple of things I noticed that will effect your entries counting if you are to be selected.
-Although I and the sponcers love to hear how much you love the products, if you do not follow the rules and leave what your favorite product was or what ever the rules requested from you, your entry cannot count.
-Another thing is if you say you did something for an extra entry and when you are selected I check things out to confirm it and you did not, I will move on to select another winner.
-Last thing I noticed is from a few of you who subscribed to my mailing list. I love you for subscribing, but if you don't verify your subscription ,"You are not subscribed". Most everyone has verified their subscriptions, but there are a few who have not. If you are selected from that entry you do NOT win and we move on to next runner up.
From now on if I notice these entries before hand I will contact the individual to correct the mistake. If they don't I will have to delete the entry. Rules are Rules!

So now for the winners of the Scentsy and Tiara Boutique giveaway. I have emailed each of these winners and given them 48 hours to contact me before a new winner is chosen.

The Scentsy Winner is #56 Naja

The Tiara Boutque Winner is #107 Heather

Congrats to you both! On Saturday we will be announcing more winners (Layers Clothing and Good For You Girls giveaway), so good luck to all of you who have entered those giveaways!

KT Kreations Giveaway CLOSED!

This giveaway is part of the Bloggy Carnival ! Be sure to check out other great giveaways there!
I just received my favorite necklace ever! (Sorry Honey, if you read this). I opened my package from KT Kreations and inside was this beautiful handmade star. The necklace is called, "Star Bright" It's made with 6mm and 4mm Swarovski bicones woven together to form a starburst design.



Why I love it so much is because it actually looks like a snowflake and represents me very well. It really stands out in a black dress. It is so beautiful.
Besides the look, I am also always very concerned on quality. I have two little ones and my one year old is constantly pulling on my jewelry. KT Kreations are made extremely well and the "Star Bright" she sent is woven very tightly and secure. No baby is going to break my necklace!


As I look through KT Kreations I find a great selection of jewelry and for all seasons. KT Kreations also does a lot of costum work for people. This is a plus if you want something custome and to represent you.

The Giveaway:KT Kreations is giving away this beautiful heart shaped necklace.



To Enter: You must visit KT Kreations store and come back here to tell me your favorite item!
