Homegoods Happy Spring Challenge

I am definitely a Homegoods fan, and so the Homegoods Happy Spring challenge is definitely up my alley! The way it works is this:

Starting this Monday, March 22nd, HomeGoods is inviting all of us to participate in their Happy Spring Challenge, 6 spring challenges that will be held each week for the next six weeks. They are giving away some awesome prizes, including products and a $100 HomeGoods certificate each week!

Here’s how it works:
1. Each Monday morning for the next 6 weeks, HomeGoods will announce a brand new, Spring Trend that Makes Us Happy, challenge at their OpenHouse Blog, Facebook and on Twitter.
2. To participate, visit HomeGoods each Monday at either their Openhouse Blog, or on Facebook or on Twitter to discover the topic for that week’s Spring Home Fashion Trend.
3. You will have all that week, until Friday at 5PM, to submit photos showing your “take” on that week’s Spring Trend.

As a bonus, several bloggers will help celebrate this event by giving away $50 Homegoods Gift Cards! Click each link to be taken to each giveaway! Good luck!

Creating Change in 2010

This post is my entry into the Jolly Mom/HP contest.

Change. It's a buzzword that everyone throws around, and while Creating Change is easier said than done, I doubt than anyone would argue with me that it is needed now more than ever. To create change in 2010, I plan on taking part in A Beautiful Idea. Don't know what A Beautiful Idea is? I didn't either until just today. It is the brainchild of Evie, an etsy shop owner and blogger who wanted to make a change. The idea behind it is simple. It, as the website states, "gives artists the chance to create for a cause, and gives everyone a chance to support charity by purchasing art." I LOVE this idea. Basically, you work with A Beautiful Idea to create a product, sell that product and give all proceeds to the current charity. The current charity being helped is World Vision, which, among other things, is helping with Haiti relief. Again, and I can't say this enough, what a wonderful, and much needed, idea. Imagine the benefit if just a fraction of etsy shop owners participated?

And how will winning this tech bundle help me achieve this goal. Simple, it will allow me to continue to develop my etsy shop, twitter account, blog, and facebook page while on the go to help gain support for this wonderful cause and to help me to promote my shop item once it is created for A Beautiful Idea. As this cause realizes, online social media, as well as Etsy, is the way of the future, and the way to Creating Change. This technology bundle will help me to stay connected and help be part of this Change!
