a $35 store credit, plus free shipping to HappyMagnet!
HappyMagnet was started by Stephanie, a mom of two, who says:
“After seeing how much my toddler loved magnets I decided I needed to design some especially for her. I’m always thinking up new magnets & designing them from scratch- I love the creative process. With these magnets I hope to spark imaginative play & throw in a little educational benefit when possible. I hope that the little people in your life like them as much as mine do!”
They offer magnet sets, as well as upcycled magnets – love them!
Are your walls crying?
Do you need a little typography, subway art, and customized prints in your life?
Don’t be sad, Megan from Balancing Home(love her blog!!) is offering
a $100 store credit to Balancing Home Print Shop!

(a $24 value)
from Owl About You!
Isn’t that awesome? I’m so excited and almost a little bummed that I can’t win myself! ;)
Good luck!
















One of the things that we do that my kids love is to make special treats together. Homemade treats always taste better and are better for you and so much fun to prepare as a family.

Spend lots of time with my baby and husband.
we love doing various holiday crafts to decorate our house. We also have a “creativity center” where all of our paper, stamps, stickers, crayons, markers etc. are stored so that my son can access them any time the mood strikes.
We always take time to just spend a whole day together at home, as a family. Weeks can get so busy so we try to have a relaxing day together as often as possible!
I would get a set of animal magnets and alphabet magnets from Happy Magnet!
I would love to get the elephant print for my daughters room from BalancingHome!
I love the pettiskirts from Owl About You so that’s probably what I would get!
If I won the $35 credit to Happy Magnet I would definitely be purchasing the Create-A-Face set. My son (and me) would get such a kick out of making silly faces and since we have a steel entry door, he could make faces to great our guests :)
I feel that our home is a welcoming and pleasant place
to be…Our home is lived in and our children say our
home is the place to be for their friends…

To make our house a happy home, we try to make at least one special time of the day to cuddle as a family, either in the am in bed, or all together on the couch. We started doing this when we adopted our dog last year, and now that we’ve added our 2.5 month old little girl, we do it all as a family!! It’s very special to us and everyone seems to want it more!:) Especially our German Shepard Kahuna!! Thanks for the awesome give a way!
To make our home happy, we carve out a bit of time for each kid. It makes them feel special. We are expecting baby #5 so it can be challenging, but it’s worth it. That’s how I know my 6 year old thinks zebras are white with black stripes, not black with white stripes.
