Monday Giveaway!

Today I am so excited to let you all in on an amazing product I recently discovered..

they funny thing is, I discovered these from a couple friends of mine that love them, swore by them and told me I had to have them. So.. I went to buy some and it turns out..I know Marlo the girl who makes them and is the mastermind behind these beauties.. we used to work at Anthropologie together.. I can not tell you the amount of talent and creativity that oozes from the employees there.. I have an AMAZING group of girls that we all got to know and love eachother working there and we still get together and keep in touch..

I love them with all my heart...

ok. enough of my gushing..

Long story short, I bought some hair ties, went home, contacted Marlo and she offered to do a giveaway right here on the ol' blog.. 

yup!

3 of you will will a pack of these little jewels..

not just 1 but 3 winners!

Pretty good odds my friends!

You will LOVE these hair ties.. they are adorable, look fancier than an ugly hair tie, even on your wrist, no kinks in your hair from wearing a pony all day, no tearing your hair trying to get it out of your hair {or your daughters hair.. the drama!!!},  it really just sliiiides out, it adds just a bit of something special to your basic bun.. or messy in my case..

they are handmade by Marlo locally in Cardiff.. she sells them all over boutiques all around town.. for a full list where..

visit her website here..

all you have to do to enter is..

Hello June & a Give away!

So.

I have had this tiny corner of the world wide web for a couple of years now.

i started it to blog about my girls and our life and plan on making a big fat book out of it..

to eventually gift to my girls of their childhood..

just a picture or 2 a week and a little ramble about it..

this is where my LOVE for photography started..

i began to really love taking photos and blogging..

some family and friends read my blog and commented here and there..

my grandma is my biggest fan of my blog..

she made me promise to always keep it going.. as it is her way of keeping up with us..

fast forward a couple years..

i started photography as a side project..

and sequins and candy was born..

i am still in shock everyday that my little photo biz has been so welcomed and loved..

it is a dream come true..

{not to sound too cheesy mc cheeser pants..}

all you girls.. and guy? 

 keep coming back to read my silly rants, raves, bragging, fashion obsessions and recipes..

i want to thank you thank you thank you..

 i have started to dabble in advertising on the ol' clean up on aisle four..

and i did a little face lift in honor of june!!

and for all of you..

a giveaway too!!
