DFW Jamberry Nails Review & Giveaway!

~~~CLOSED~~~

Congratulations Charissa Jackson!

I got my Jamberry Nails samples on a Wednesday at noon.  I waited patiently to try them.  Until my daughter got home from school!  LOL

Jamberry has vinyl nail shields that are applied with the use of heat (from a hair dryer) and pressure (from your fingers or an orange stick).  They form a tight bond to the nail that lasts and lasts.

I did her nails first, then my own.

Walk & Work With Style GIVEAWAY!

Welcome to the Mega Prize Giveaway

Walk & Work With Style

March 1-18, 2012

Sponsored by:

The Amazon Center for Environmental Education and Research

And Hosted by:

Celebrate Woman Today

The Modern Babble

Adventures of A Couponista

The Prizes You will be competing for:

Sony Wi-Fi Camera ~ 2 Winners

Kingston Wi-Drive 32GB ~ 2 Winners

Sports Watches with Rhinestone Bezel ~ 4 Winners

We live in times when comfort and style really matter. That's why we chose to go with the prizes that are very handy for anybody in this busy life. These products will definitely contribute to your work, to your hobby, to your creative projects.

All this is possible with the help of The Amazon Center for Environmental Education and Research. What is it? It is closer to home than you may think. This non-profit Foundation puts forward all its resources into education and active involvement of people like you and I in the conservation of the Rainforest. It does it with workshops, trips to the Peruvian Amazon, connecting educational institutions with each other, and supporting indiginous people.

Do we really care if the Rainforest vanishes from the face of the Earth? You bet. And you'd better be proactive NOW. If all of the Rainforest goes away, we will be experiencing one of those cataclizms like in a horrific movie.

We want to continue to live, and to blog. And blog happily.

Let's celebrate our connections with each other and with Nature.

Let's Walk & Work With Style, while always caring about the interconnectidness of this Universe.

We would love to Thank All These Great Blogs who came through strongly with their support for this occassion. Our applause to each and every one of you:

Product Review: Pambra Bra Liners & GIVEAWAY!

I was so excited to learn about Pambra's Bra Liners.  I am, ah hem, well endowed, and have worn a bra forever.  Well - since I was about 11.  I was a teen when I started wearing under-wires, and I've never been able to switch back.  I love the support that I get from my under-wires (not to mention the extra va-va-voom for the girls - the higher they are, the more attention is drawn away from post-6 pregnancies belly!)

A Virtual Mystery Hostess Party-Palooza!

I'm so excited that Gold Canyon has given us the ability to host ONLINE PARTIES!  To celebrate, I'm holding a virtual mystery hostess party-palooza!

All orders between now and December 12th will be entered into the drawing for the Hostess benefits!

What are those you ask?

The "average" party is around $400 - so you would get $60.00 in credit, 3 half-price items, and your choice of one of three amazing hostess-only bundles for half-price!

Did you see that the awesome Wooden Candlestick Trio is in the first bundle?  I can't wait to get mine!

So - How do you enter?  It's easy!  Go to my website: http://www.DFWGoldCanyon.com and place your order  You can shop as a guest, however I recommend that you create an account.  This way it's still there if something happens to distract you from your shopping (like nursing the baby, taking leftover Halloween candy away from the toddler, picking up your oldest from school because they were suspended or taking your daughter to (another) play practice - ask me how I know!)


When you get to the checkout screen, you'll see a little checkbox like this:

Check the box, and then it will look like this:

Enter the Party Online Code: 5189274, then click on "Validate" and you will see:

I'll get an e-mail confirmation of your order (almost typed "odor" there - I don't need to know that!  Maybe your favorite scent, but not your odor!  LOL)

Leave comments to get extra entries:

• You get one entry for placing your order (that's the "mandatory entry")
• You get an extra entry if your order is over $30 (retail, before tax & s/h)
• You get TWO extra entries if your order is over $50 (retail, before tax & s/h)
• You get THREE extra entries if your order is over $60 (retail, before tax & s/h)
• You get FIVE extra entries if your order is over $70 (retail, before tax & s/h)
• You get one entry for sharing this party on Facebook, Twitter or other social media sites (just make a note in the comments!)
• You get one entry for following the blog with Google Friend Connect, Liking me on Facebook or Following me on Twitter

All Aboard! Toot Toot!

Welcome to new friends from 7OnAShoestring and the Christmas Treasure Train blog hop!

If you haven't already entered to win - what are you waiting for?

I'm sponsoring the giveaway at 7OnAShoestring - I'm giving away an oils warmer adapter and 3 home fragrance oils (like I spotlighted here)

Also - today is the LAST DAY to enter over at Home Grown Families for my awesome Homeology cleaners! 

Win Gold Canyon All-Natural Homeology Cleaners!

As you may know, Homeology cleaners were inspirational in my decision to become a Gold Canyon Independent Fragrance Consultant!  I excited to share this opportunity for you to win it for free!

Home Grown Families is hosting their annual Green Gifting Guide.  You can enter here to win a free full-size cleaner and wasteless refill of your choice.

These all-natural cleaners make an excellent green holiday gift.  Not only is the product environmentally friendly, but giving a gift that is consumable is green!  For less than the cost of a sweater that they may just re-gift, you can give the gift of aromatherapy and clean fresh spaces!

Who would most appreciate this gift?  I'm tempted to say anyone with a nose, but I guess that wouldn't be super-helpful!  Here are a few suggestions:

A newly-wed couple.  Remember when you got married?  You got all those expensive pieces of china, flatware, crystal stemware... You had matching towels, throw-pillows, placemats...  You had an iron, blender (or 3 blenders in our case!), coffee maker...  And do you remember the first trip to the store?  The "stock up".

Yeah - that's the one!  When we got married (nearly 16 years ago) ours was $86 - YIKES  (that was a lot of money when you consider our rent on the apartment was around $450)

College Students.  I remember the shock when I discovered that I had to clean my own dorm room.  I don't know why, but I kinda envisioned it as a hotel.  I was sadly mistaken, there was no maid service!  I usually bummed cleaners off of the other students (who probably got it as a dorm-warming present from someone else!)  I had to save my money for more important things, like late night runs to Taco Bell and new shoes books!  I didn't even buy toilet paper some weeks.  I "borrowed" it from the lobby bathroom (sorry mom).

That person who has everything.  You know who they are.  There's not something they haven't tried.  They've been there, done that, got the T-shirt.  You started giving them only things that they could hang on the walls, but that's even not an option anymore!

Anyway - if you win it, you could keep it for yourself or give it as a gift.  Why not throw in some super-cute gloves like these:

Nice Hands Household Utility Gloves - $10.50 on Etsy

An inexpensive organizer tote and some eco-friendly cleaning cloths:

Crocheted Cleaning Cloth Eco-Friendly Rainbow Stripe Shagg Ragg - $7.50 on Etsy

Either way, your purchase supports Small Businesses in a BIG Way.  Watch for my Small Business Guide - coming soon!

Small is the new BIG!

PINK OUT

I'm very excited about October for Breast Cancer Awareness and Fundraising!

I have set a personal goal to sell 300 Pink Sugar Cookie candles with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

"How?" you say... I'm glad you asked!

Last year I sold 2.  To be fair, I didn't sign up with Gold Canyon until the end of October though!  This year, I've been planning PINK Parties since - oh, about July!

In fact, when I approached members of 2 of my networking groups about doing joint parties, the response was so overwhelming that I have planned a HUGE PINK Party for October 14th!

http://www.tinyurl.com/pinkparty2011

I'm also encouraging each of my October hosts to plan PINK Parties and pre-sell the candle for their party sales.  

But what about you?  Out there in blog land, maybe far away from good old Dallas Fort Worth!  Well - you can get in on the fun too!  

Oh - do you like FREE?  I thought so!
