CLOSED - Winners, Renovations and CSN giveaway!

Hello everyone!

Thanks to all of you who entered my October 11 giveaways!  They have ended now and I will be announcing the winners in the next day or so.  I'm a bit MIA because I'm getting ready for a local vendor show on Friday afternoon (Yaay!).   It's been a while since I've done one so I'm excited!

At the same time, I've been making a "honey do list" for my hubby.  We're doing some renovations in our kitchen and the two bathrooms.  Just mainly painting and stuff.  But I had a really weird idea, tell me what you think.

My kids are not great about cleaning up after themselves when they eat. So I was trying to think of some ideas on what to do, and I think the best thing to do is have them eat in the kitchen. Now I don't have a big enough kitchen for an island, but I was wondering if any of you just keep bar stool or two on hand so they can eat at the kitchen counter.  Does anyone do this? I figured at least they would be right by the sink, LOL!!

So anyway, in my search for bar stools (and purses and beds and bedding) I came across CSN stores.  Man they have some really cool stuff there!  I'm really eyeing this platform bed!



But I digress!  I would like to spruce up my kitchen a bit and cut down on the mess in my dining room, so I was wondering about this bar stool.  They don't have a cushion but they are nice and curved for the bottom.  What do you think?



I really like this stool,  it's small enough to be portable but pretty enough to leave out in the kitchen.  HMM, I'll have to show it to hubby!

How would YOU like the opportunity to spruce up your place? 

CSN has generously offered me a chance to do a giveaway for a $35 gift card to their site.  You don't need furniture? No problem!  They have over 200 stores for you to choose from!  You can find pretty much anything you need from the bar stool like the one I linked above to beautiful purses and even toys!

Here's what you need to do:

Mandatory: Go to the CSN store of your choice and let me know what you would pick if you win the $35?

For extra entries, you can do any/all of the following:

1.  Follow this blog and/or my business blog Dress My Doll (1 entry each)
2. Blog about this giveaway (3 entries)

All entrants must be US or Canadian residents.
All entrants must be 18 or older.

Giveaway will end on 10/31.  Winners will be chosen using random.org

Good luck everyone!

Love and blessings!
Margaret
