By 1 Comment

Through July 17th you can purchase a box of Edible Arrangements dipped fruit for just $10.00! The price is normally $25 and this makes a great gift for someone (or for yourself!)

You need to pick up your box from one of Edible Arrangements’ stores. You have until the 17th to order and then the 20th to actually pick it up your gift.

For my fellow Annapolis area residents, the Annapolis store is located at 7 Old Solomons Island Rd, Suite D. Their phone number is 410-897-9940.  Find your closest store here.

Brittany Chandler Photography

I connected with Brittany Chandler through a local Maryland moms group on Meetup.com.  She was looking to expand her photography portfolio with newborn photo sessions, and well, I was getting ready to give birth to a newborn.

Brittany was able to capture beautiful pictures of Baby C, at just 10 days old.  The studio was in her home using natural light.  She had a heater at a warm 90 degrees plus to keep my little newborn son warm.  She had a variety of back drops, props, and freshly washed blankets for our photo session.  Since Easter was fast approaching at the time, she had adorable little bunny ears for my baby to wear, with a colorful spring backdrop.

After our session, she emailed me the edited images to share with my friends and family, and to print at my convenience.  She let me decide which ones I wanted in color, black and white, or both!  She also sent me low-res images to share on websites like Facebook.  When I went to print the images at my local Sam’s Club, the online uploading center informed me that the images were not a high enough resolution.  I decided to print them anyway since family was coming to visit soon and I wanted to show them the pictures.  The pictures turned out great, not blurry at all!  The resolution was fine.  I’m sure the pictures were have looked even better if I had them professionally printed.  Though they turned out great even just printed at a place like Sam’s Club.

I am pleased with the images from I received from this photo session and was glad I was able to help Brittany build her portfolio further.

Have You Tried Scentsy?

Have you tried Scentsy yet?  It’s a a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles! Scentys has everything from decorative warmers to use the scented bars and bricks in, as well as scented foam, travel tins, and room spray just to name a few items.

I recently won a Travel Tin in the Beach scent from Shell’s Scents, run by Shelly Roper, an independent Scentsy consultant.  Shelly often has fun giveaways and contests on her Facebook page, where fans can win FREE Scentsy items!  Right now she is running a Mystery Hostess Event from July 6-20th.  For every order placed at her online show, you will be entered into a drawing at Random.org, to win ALL the hostess rewards from that online party.  Currently 1 in 5 odds of winning!

Another reason to go “LIKE” her page is that she is going to give away a FREE Plug In AND scent bar when she reaches 700 Fans.  All fans are entered in this giveaway when she reaches 700!

Now back to my Travel Tin (retails for $5.00)…

I love Scentsy’s tropical scents, like Beach (and Surfer Chick, Coconut Lemongrass, Reggae Sunset, Cranberry Mango, and I could go on and on)!  Beach is a mix of papaya, honeydew, and a bit of coconut.  This of course reminds me of the beach :)  I like the travel tins because you can take them anywhere.
So if you are looking for the same refreshing scents as scented candles, but you have curious little ones and could do with a flame, then definitely check out Scentsy!
