If you're wanting vintage, The Steam Punk Trunk. If you're wanting unique, The Steam Punk Trunk. Seriously, I was having a hay-day browsing this shop! Practically every piece, I had to enlarge to get a better view because I was so intrigued. The quality and creativity behind each piece is amazing! I really have never seen anything like these. Many pieces are made using vintage watch movements. They will turn old cigar boxes into fantastic purses. How clever! They have all types of jewelry, hair pieces, brooches, key rings, etc. Check out their shop!

The Steampunk Trunk is offering the winner $50 of in-store credit, plus free shipping! Everyone else can receive FREE SHIPPING via refund, by mentioning "Or so she says..." in the checkout notes. This offer expires Dec. 31, 2009.

Shade Clothing was founded in Utah by a darling woman, Chelsea Rippy, who was frustrated by the lack of clothing that was stylish & modest. I am SO thankful for women like her! Shade Clothing makes all the basics you need and more, all for a decent price! There are so, so, so many cute pieces in their shop, I'm excited for you to see them! I actually have the skirt you can win (shown below), I love it! It's comfy, perfect for this season (I love the plaid), and well-made! Jessica loves wearing that adorable, gray terry peacoat (also, shown below). Shade Clothing is on the top of our list!

Shade Clothing is offering the winner the Plaid Skirt (shown above), valued at $38! It also includes free shipping!

The Adventures and Secret Sweet Treats of Strawberry & Denver is a series of 4 children's books that you will love! They feature two mini horses that explore the world throughout each of the seasons. What I love is that each book has it's own special recipe (treat) that your little one can make. The treat is also hidden on each page, can they find it?? I also like that each book is packed with descriptive words, great for helping kids build their vocabulary. If you have a horse-lover, a baker, or a child that just loves books...these are for you! Each book also has a corresponding charm available for purchase.

Author, Jan Prenoveau, is offering the winner the book (Strawberry & Denver's) Fall at Summit Ridge Farm. The prize also includes the "Strawberry Charm" plus free shipping! This is a $26 dollar value...more, if you count shipping!

Beautiful, indulgent, and well-crafted are three ways to describe the bath & body products by Serendipity 8. Made from natural herbs and essential oils, you will be hard pressed to make a choice! Relax and rejuvenate with the Limoncello Sugarcube Body Scrub, the Spiced Chai Soap, Bay Rum Shaving Cream, or any of the MANY products offered. I really want to get my hands on the Sweet Grass Soap...I have a thing for the smell of grass! Serendipity 8 sells soaps, bath salts, sugar scrubs, eye pillows, loose tea, bath gel, shaving cream, and whipped soap. Great gift idea!


Serendipity 8 is offering the winner $50 dollars of in store credit! Everyone else can receive 50% off their purchase via refund by mentioning "Or so she says..." in the checkout notes. This offer is good (great!) until December 6, 2009.

"An eclectic mix of mod & vintage jewelry," is a perfect description of the treasures you will find at Just Peachy! However, I would like to add to that description "seriously good-lookin' stuff". I love jewelry and it makes me so happy to find a shop that makes exactly the kind that I like! I really, really, really love the lockets in their shop. But, I also like the necklaces, the bracelets, earrings...oh heck, I like it all! Jewelry is such an easy and perfect gift! What woman doesn't want jewelry?? You will love their stuff!

Just Peachy is offering the winner the Gold Leaf Necklace (shown above), a $28 dollar value...plus, free shipping! Everyone else can have 15% off via refund by mentioning "Or so she says..." in the checkout notes. This offer expires December 21, 2009.

All children love books, but you know what they would love even more?? A book about them! FreckleBox makes all sorts of awesome personalized gifts, but their books are magical! Put your child in the middle of a unicorn's adventure, help them "spy" their name at the zoo, or celebrate their birth! FreckleBox also has a variety of growth charts (no more pencil marks on the wall!), lunch boxes, notebooks, journals, puzzles, and more! Perfect for gifts (or stocking stuffers)!

FreckleBox is offering the winner any one item from their shop! How will you choose??

Les Bijoux Crea-Lune is one of those places to go when you want a piece of jewelry that nobody else has...a piece that is totally unique and beautiful! They use the most beautiful stones and the creativity behind each piece is amazing! I love jewelry that has some sort of detail that just stands out and catches the eye...Les Bijoux Crea-Lune has got that down to a science. Whether it's a fascinating moonstone, and asymmetrical piece, or vintage style...they never cease to amaze! Again, jewelry...perfect gift.


Les Bijoux Creal-Lune is offering the winner the fascinating necklace shown above, a $28 dollar value...shipping will be included! Everyone else can receive 15% off their purchase until December 10, 2009. Just mention "Or so she says..." in the checkout notes, discount given via refund.

If you have (or even KNOW) a little boy, then you must acquaint yourself with Dogwood Clothing. I have a couple boys, myself, and they wouldn't be caught dead wearing anything less than "cool". They totally approve of Dogwood, and so do I! They can't wait to get a "Brother For Sale" shirt! I'm loving the Chick Magnet shirt (below), pretty clever. Dogwood is a shop just for boys, with the personality and interests of real boys in mind...none of this argyle sweater stuff. Besides all of this fabulousness, check out the killer discount they are offering below! Super generous!

Dogwood is offering the winner $30 of in-store credit (online store). Everyone else can get a whopping 35% discount off their online purchase! Just enter "blog" as the promo code. This offer is good until Dec. 31, 2009.

Who likes to see their name on things? Um, pretty much everybody. That's why personalized gifts are so popular and so great! Your kid would love to have a plate with their very own name on it...or a water bottle, or bag tag. Fontaine Maury doesn't just focus on personalized products for kids, you can get something for yourself too! They have fun holiday plates or serving trays, you could get your family name on them, initials, you name it! There are lots of options! Everything in their shop is colorful and adorable. Hey, how about a cookie-plate for Santa??

Fontaine Maury is offering the winner a set of 4 plates! This includes free shipping! Everyone else can get a great discount of 20% by entering code "SheSays2009". This offer is good until December 1, 2009...so, don't wait!

Auviana jewelry has beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces! I especially love that all the flowers are -hand made by them, so amazing! How do they do that?? I'm on a quest to find out. Quality, original, antique-like, and romantic are all words I would use to describe their jewelry. In their shop you will find all types of jewelry, hair pieces, and of course, they do custom orders! Be sure to visit their shop, you will love it!

Auviana is offering the winner the Antiqued Brass Flower Necklace (shown above), a $25 value, and free shipping! It even has one of those amazing flowers on it, lucky!
