Mother's Day Giveaway #1: Bed & Bath Package from Monarch Monograms



Happy Monday to you! Let's get started on these amazing Mother's Day Giveaways. Remember, these are prizes just for the Ladies. No toys. No baby items. Each prize is in the $150+ range. And you only have 1 day to enter. There are 2 Giveaways today. Both are excellent. Here's the first:


Make a comment on this post by midnight tonight and you'll be entered to win a BED & BATH CUSTOM DESIGN PACKAGE FROM MONARCH MONOGRAMS. What? That's right, a completely customized design embroidered on a pair of DAMASK HAND TOWELS and DAMASK STRIPE PILLOWCASES.





Here's how it will work: the winner will communicate directly with Monarch Monograms to determine their design style. Monarch Monograms will create 3 custom designs which the winner will pick from. Then Monarch will sew the design of choice on a pair of hand towels and a pair of organic cotton pillowcases. Oh man. I love this kind of thing. Someone determining my design style? Lovely.

I'm heartily impressed with Monarch's work. Take a look at some of their offerings:


Your dinner party will feel more complete with these initialed linen dinner napkins.


You'll love to see this super-soft throw blanket sitting near your best reading chair.



Look how happy these Seeing Spots Burp Cloths are? And this Organic Cotton Receiving Blanket?


And dig this monogram Monarch whipped up for me over the weekend. (It was concluded that I was a san-serif sort of person. Um. Exactly.)

It's so satisfying when you get your house at a point that you can concentrate on details like monogrammed linens. They bring instant luxe to guest space or master bedroom. And are the kind of things your kids will fight to inherit. Take note, these are not your average linens from your everyday department store. Take the pillowcases for example, these are a pair of damask stripe pillowcases available in ivory or ecru. Envelope-style opening. 100% organic cotton with a sateen finish. Like I said, luxe.

Thank you Monarch Monograms!
