0 Portable Air Conditioner {Sponsored Post}

May 19, 2013

 
Are you in the market for a new air conditioner? We have several window units, one being a bit on the older side, and they scare me! I always worry they aren't secured right, or that they'll just fall out.
So when NewAir USA contacted me about reviewing their NewAir 10000E Portable Air Conditioner, I jumped at the chance. Who is NewAir USA? They are manufacturer of home appliances that include portable air conditioners, ice machines and ice cream makers.

May 13, 2013

I've been a pinning maniac lately.
There is just so many eye catching things that can inspire the creative side.
Home decor, crafts, kids activities, parties, you name it, I've pinned it.
I love following others to see what they are pinning, and of course it just puts more of the goods in front of my eyes. Serenity Now recently featured her top favorite Pinners (I made the list!) and I thought it was a great idea!
 
Below is a list of my top 5 favorite people to follow, because they have a similar style to mine and always find the best projects to pin. Stop on by and follow them too, you'll be happy you did!

1 10 Fun Projects Using a Silhouette

May 11, 2013

I am so excited! I should be getting a Silhouette Cameo in the mail ANY day now!
I've had my Cricut Personal Cutter for a few years now, but it is small and I'm not a fan of their design software. The Silhouette just seems so much more versatile, you have more control of what you are cutting, sketching, etc. AND I love their online shape library and the great prices that go with it.

Also, don't forget, I'M GIVING AWAY A SILHOUETTE PORTRAIT!
Giveaway ends tomorrow so make sure you get your entry in!
And if you already have a Silhouette, there are some great promo bundles available to seven thirty three readers.
In honor of my incoming Silhouette, I've rounded up 10 fun projects that were created using a Silhouette.
