CSN Store Preview~ and Giveaway

I promised to let you know what I was going to review from CSN Stores, and since I put my order in yesterday,  I thought I'd let you know what should be shipping to my house shortly! I'm excited to be trying out some silicon bakeware. I chose this set, Trademark Global Smartware 19 Piece Bakeware Set in Gray, in part because it is made in the USA, which I prefer to trust over "made in China" products. The only silicon products I currently own are some stand-alone muffin cups that I've been using, and have been impressed with. Now I  am looking forward to seeing how the pans and the mat perform. 

I'm also getting a new SMALL cookie scoop! I love my middle and larger-sized scoops, and am interested to see how this OXO grip scoop compares to them. 

Let the Christmas Cookie and Baking season commence!  :)

And now

A CSN Stores Review/Giveaway coming up!

Now that Thanksgiving Day is behind us, it is time to focus on Advent and the Joy of Celebrating the Light of the world! I have some plans to share a fun review and giveaway from CSN Stores with you SOON, that may help with the "Joy of Giving" aspect of this season. Keep watching here, to see if I'll be reviewing something from  Sling Backpacks,  Baking Mats, Building sets, or something else from any one of the 200+  CSN stores.

Hope you all are having a fun Black Friday, or Decorating for Christmas, or just hanging out on your birthday day, like me!

Blessings~

CSN Stores~ Sets~ Dining, Swing, Bedding and more!

Remember the $40 Gift Certificate giveaway I did a few weeks back from CSN stores? Well, I've been offered the chance to review an item for them, so I've been perusing their site(s). With over a million products to choose from, it's difficult to narrow down my choices. They have dinnerware sets(The holiday dinnerware caught me eye, and they are all on sale right now for 20-50% off! Time to start thinking about Christmas! :) ),  swing sets (yup.. still looking at those swings~ and trampolines, too!), and bedding sets!

Stay tuned to see what I picked to review, and go check out their stores... you will be amazed at the variety offered. :) Right now looks like a good time to shop, too, because many of the CSN stores are running sales right now, AND there are promotional codes for various categories.

Oh, and I have to mention... they are also offering a bunch of Hatch a New Habitat contests... from bedrooms (Closed to entering, open for voting Here's my cyber-friend's entry If you want to vote for her, click "rate this item" at the top, and give her some stars. :) ), to bathrooms to backyards... I might have to think about entering one of those, too! ;)

OK, time to let you get back to your important web-work/browsing/playing, and time for me to get back to my kids and the real world. :)

Blessings~
