GIVEAWAY! Glitter State of Iowa on Barn Wood- Miss Prim Designs

9/4/2014

Vintage wood, and GLITTER. Combined. Does it get any better than that? Seriously, for me it doesn't. I love rustic decor and I love glittery stuff, so when I came across this etsy shop "Miss Prim Designs" I was dying over it. I contacted the owner and prayed that she would be willing to let me review and giveaway a couple of her signs and when she agreed I was so excited!

Miss Prim Designs was started by a husband and wife team that are native to Iowa but currently live in Omaha.  They use old barn wood from an old barn that collapsed in Ledyard, Iowa and take it back with them in chunks to continue making home decor products.  I love the fact that these items are made from recycled wood that was once part of a barn here in our home state. So fun to have a story to tell!

I was able to review one of the glitter state of Iowa barn wood plaques in my home.  They arrived wrapped in tons of tissue and with lots of padding, so the glitter wasn't even phased by the shipping process.  I was excited to see that the glitter is applied super thick, and that it has a protective coating on it. The barn wood is awesome and each piece is unique in its own way. The natural color wood has a few knots in it, and the red barn wood has a couple of nail holes in it. I love that no two pieces are exactly the same and that each is unique! Each plaque comes with a wire on the top so it is ready to hang. I was also sent a few wood hearts to glue onto my Iowa wherever I wanted to. I obviously placed mine over Iowa City but I love that you can place it wherever you want, since I know a lot of you grew up here ( but not in Iowa City). I glued the white heart on mine, but there was also a black and red heart. I love that you can choose heart colors, AND, you can also choose different colors of glitter for your Iowa! I chose to sit mine on a mini display stand on my mantel but I love that I have that hanging option as well.

Miss Prim Designs is not limited to just glitter creations! They also have darling signs that you can display in your home that still have that love for Iowa showing through. You can get a few different options, like Home, Love, and Iowa, with the O's being replaced with the Iowa state sign. Here are a few examples:

Review: Belly Dance Maternity- Door Prize Opportunity!

Let's get this out there from the very beginning- I am not pregnant.  So no one spread rumors ok! BUT, I did get the chance to work with Belly Dance Maternity in a review, AND they have offered us a maternity shirt for a lucky Welcome Brunch goer! So get excited about that!

Both of the shirts they sent were by "Tees by Tina", a one size fits most maternity brand. I was able to review the Red Nautical 3/4 tee. I was surprised by how stretchy it was, yet how compressing it was. I was trying to imagine being pregnant and it just squeezing all of that extra baby pudge in all the right places. I am definitely looking forward to having a cute new shirt to wear when that time comes. My favorite part about the shirt was that it didn't ride up at all, which is a huge deal when you have a belly. No one likes their baby belly hanging out all over the place! As you can see, I stuffed a nice little bean bag inside the shirt and wore it around for a bit. The shirt literally did not move. It was awesome! It's also a shirt that you can definitely wear when you are not pregnant- there aren't any ruched sides which is common with lots of maternity shirts-it is completely seamless so it doesn't shout "im pregnant!" when you wear it.

Belly Dance Maternity has everything from nursing wear, to swimsuits, to lingerie...everything you could need- even some nice fancy dresses that you could wear to the Gala if you are pregnant now or planning on getting pregnant soon.

Cross your fingers that you will win the awesome shirt they sent for us to donate as a  door prize! You will all also be given a 15% off coupon in your swag bags to use on their website which will expire 8/14 if you don't win! Thanks again to Belly Dance Maternity, head over to their site to check out all of the great items they have!
