Update: Giveaway is now closed - thank you everyone for commenting - I am SO happy with our coasters, I look at them constantly through out the day, such a great way to preserve your babies! The winner is being contacted now.
Did you know Canada.. I got to try the absolute best service for any parent or grandparent. And when I tell you this it is truely from the bottom of my heart - I love this service and will be using it for my self and for a million Christmas presents this year and the years to come.
Budding Artists is a Canadian owned company who use original artwork (like the kiddos drawings) to create keepsakes and giftware with over 25 quality products. It's a very true statement Budding Artists has on their website: Each customized gift is a wonderful statement to friends and family that we value children’s creativity. It’s a win-win… Parents appreciate the ease of preserving their children’s artwork and kids are active participants in the creative process.
Budding Artists do fundraising parties, DIY Home Parties, Individual Orders, and they have an Eco-Friendly Art and Craft Supplies Marketplace as well.
I am so in love with the magnets and coasters we received, everyone notices them when they come in the house and it's my boys preserved for me, makes me so happy. I can't wait until they are a bit older and can draw real pictures, that's going to be fantastic. The process was SO EASY as well which is more than half the battle.

I would like the garden stake with a picture of sunflowers that my daughter drew for me.

I think that the Garden Stake would make such a nice gift for a grandparent that gardens, I can think of one that would love it in my family at least - what a lovely idea!

If your tween is into paint-ball you can take everyone to play paint-ball.
ReplyDeleteEven Halloween parties with the very best Halloween
costumes can get dry after everyone's seen the costumes to be seen and passed out the candy to the beggars. At each house you have the hostess serve something small to eat, and host a small game.
