Thank you all for participating in the MyPix2Canvas giveaway. The winner selected through random.org is...#13 Megs. Congratulations! Please email me at alifesdesign@gmail.com. Happy Monday!

Giveaway...

This weeks giveaway is hosted by MyPix2Canvas. MyPix2Canvas prints your digital photo on museum-grade canvas and seal it with a protective coating. The print will be wrapped on high-quality, kiln-dried fir stretcher bars following the best practices for gallery-wrapped canvas prints. MyPix2Canvas contacted me to review their product and host a giveaway for you. I selected a photo from our Hawaii trip to be printed on canvas {11x14 x 1.5"}, and I selected the mirror wrap edge {see below}. 

Here is the photo printed on canvas. I know that every screen displays photos differently, but on my screen the photo appeared lighter than it printed. My recommendation when ordering is to be aware it may print a bit darker. 

To Enter to win a 11x14x1.5" print, valued at $56.22:

Thank you all for participating in the Kirkland's gift certificate giveaway. The winner selected through random.org is...#17, Regena. Congrats Regena! Please contact me at alifesdesign@gmail.com. Check back in a week for another giveaway coming soon. 

Giveaway...

This weeks giveaway comes from Kirkland's. Kirkland's has a new collection of lamps and wants to give you a chance to have one of your own by offering a $50 gift certificate to use in store or online. Kirkland's sent me a sample of their Beehive lamp to review for the giveaway. The beehive lamp is a glass base with nice, symmetric lines, a champagne silk round shade, and when on it looks like the color of honey. I would say it could warm up any room and is a light amber color, instead of yellow {as it may appear in the images}. Above is an image of the Beehive lamp and below is it in my guest room.

Thank you all for participating in the Elmer's giveaway. The winners selected through random.org are #7...Anna, #25...Heather, and #14...Wendy. Congratulations ladies! Please email me at alifesdesign@gmail.com. Happy Holidays!

Giveaway...

This weeks giveaway comes from Elmer's. Elmer’s just introduced a new line of hardware glues perfect for home décor projects and quick fixes—inside and outside. While some home décor designers go to the crafting aisle for project materials, others who are looking for a more durable, permanent fix with the flexibility to sand, stain or paint head to the hardware aisle. The new line, which has been streamlined to four products, gives users a very clear choice based on the type of project they’re tackling:

·         Elmer’s Carpenter’s Wood Glue – It’s great for interior projects, non-toxic, easy to clean up with water, sandable and paintable. It also creates a stronger bond than the wood, meaning the wood will break before the bond does.

·         Elmer’s Carpenter’s Wood Glue MAX – Elmer’s newest all-in-one wood formula tackles indoor and outdoor projects. It’s waterproof, sandable, stainable, paintable, non-toxic, easy to clean up with water and bonds stronger than the wood. It also resists heat, mold and mildew.

·         Elmer’s Glue-All – This strong multi-purpose adhesive is great for interior projects, works best with wood, pottery, paper and cloth, dries clear and is non-toxic.

·         Elmer’s Glue-All MAX – This is an extremely strong polyurethane, multi-purpose adhesive, perfect for indoor and outdoor use. It’s also sandable, paintable and waterproof and works on a variety of surfaces including stone, metal and wood.

Elmer's is giving (3) lucky winners a set of all four new glues for all your project needs.
