A little back to school giveaway

Wednesday, September 7, 2011
I just love when I find a vendor that I adore. I love even more sharing about it.  I found Bella Reese Bowtique after searching long and hard for cute flower headbands that would not break the bank.  I tried making some myself this summer but honestly...I cannot make them nearly as nice (or as economically) as Bella Reese Bowtique.  They typically sell to boutiques and wholesale but if you e-mail the owner what you'd like, she will quote you a price and send them to you.  I have been over the moon happy with what we have bought....

This is Kate's little friend from the beach. She borrowed our "Natalie" headband for some photos:)

This white and turquoise one above is the "Ashley" headband.  We love it.  It is very versatile.

At first, I ordered this red one as a hair clip. But Kate's hair is thin and this flower is big.  It worked better for us on a headband.  But just so you know, any of the flowers can be ordered as clips or headbands.  The red one above is called the "Rachel".  We LOVE it!

I contacted Bella Reese and they graciously agreed to give away a headband or clip to one lucky 3 Peanuts reader. Go the the Bella Reese Bowtique site  and look around.  Leave a comment here telling me which headband is your favorite.  You can get extra entries by "liking" the Bella Reese FB page and  becoming a follower of this blog.  If you post about this giveaway on your blog, you can also get another entry.  Please leave a comment for each action as your entry.  I will use random.org to pick a winner on Sunday.

    I have been reading your blog for a while now. It's one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing it. I liked the FB page and became a follower of your blog. My favorite headbands are Rachel and Cabo.
    Would you mind sharing were you purchased the dress (or dress brand) Kate is wearing on the last picture? I am in love with it!
    If she is not going to wear it anymore I would love to buy it from you if interested. Also there was an orange one she wore back in April/May I believe that I would love to buy too. Sorry to make this so long. Don't have your email.

    Thank you
