A Giveaway Just for YOU!

This is the time of the year that I typically get overwhelmed and just worn out.  There's not much of a break between Christmas and Spring Break.  And we are going on two years now without a single snow day.  Talk about depressing!

I have thought long and hard about what my very first giveaway would look like.  After a lot of pondering, I decided to treat YOU!  Not your students (directly).  Not your classroom (directly).  Instead, I came up with an idea to throw a sweet little giveaway that is a little something for you!


So what all is included?  

A rainbow rhinestone lanyard from Doliphine!  She has such a huge selection.  I ordered a gray one and brown one for myself!  A little sparkle can make any day better, in my opinion!  ;)


 I'm also giving away a necklace, complete with 3 (real) Swarovski crystal beaded balls handmade by me!  It's my newest hobby!  These tiny little beads are threaded and strung by hand.  It takes about 15 minutes for me to create one.  My first one took 2 hours!



And last but not least, since I'm a Scentsy consultant I thought I would give away ONE warmer and THREE Scentsy bars!  The new Spring/Summer catalog comes out March 1st for the public.  Instead of picking one out to give away, I decided it was way too hard to pick one, especially when I don't know what YOU will like!  That's why I'm letting you choose everything! :)  And let me just say, the new catalog has the BEST new warmers and scents!  I am SOOOO excited about it!  I have 2 Scentsy warmers in my classroom.  In case you don't know what Scentsy is, they are a line of wickless, flameless candles!  You put a couple of scented wax into the top of the warmer, turn it on (just like a lamp), and the warmth of the lightbulb melts the wax and gives off an amazing scent!  The wax gets hot, but it won't get hot enough to burn you.  In my demonstrations I always dip my fingers into the wax to show that it's completely safe.  ;)



If you ask me, there's no way you can go wrong on winning any one of these!

So how do you enter?  Enter through the Rafflecopter below!  :)  The winners will be picked on VALENTINE'S DAY!  The giveaway will close on midnight Wednesday.  I will choose 3 winners (one for each prize) when I get home that evening!  :)  If you're chosen, I will send you an e-mail to get your mailing address to send you your goodies!  :)

  5. ME Time consists of me waking up earlier than the rest of the family, drinking a few cups of coffee, checking media and news, reading a verse or two, just basically enjoying the still and quiet of the beginning of the day.

  8. Me Time? During the week? Don't have any! But I do like to bake and try to at least once a week. When I have time, I like to make jewelry, read, knit (I can only do simple things, like scarves) and I used to scrapbook. When I had time.

    Love everything you chose for this giveaway!

  11. I love to read when I have time, but is it sad that I enjoy professional development books the most? It's a sickness! :) I like hanging out with my hubs and dog...running or watching our favorite shows. I also really love cooking and decorating our house!!

  16. What a great giveaway! I'm glad I found your blog. Believe it or not, when I need "me" time, I go to acupuncture. It sounds strange, but there's a lovely relaxing feeling as you lie on the table filled with needles! And I ALWAYS feel amazing afterward!

  20. I usually spend 15 minutes a day either sewing or making jewelry. I'm a teacher too, so so sometimes it's hard to find the time, but I try!
