Magnets for Fun

 

Now, I’m the type of person who LOVES to decorate for the holidays both inside and outside of my home.  Yes, we are the house who has the tree up right after Thanksgiving and has the light up candy canes in the front yard.  Oh, and don’t forget all of those window clings adorning the front window!

Well, this year I am expanding.  Thanks to Magnets for Fun, my lovely white soccer mom minivan will be decked out with Christmas light magnets!

I know…you’re totally jealous right!?

Magnets for Fun has released their newest product, Christmas light car magnets that are brightly colored magnets shaped like C9 Christmas light bulbs.

I think they look pretty sweet on my minivan!

(Please ignore the large amount of dirt on the outside of my minivan….it is just a figment of your imagination!)

 

 

I think they look pretty great and are an awesome way to spread some holiday cheer!
I can also attest that they are strong magnets and can survive wind, rain and driving on the highway!
The Christmas light car magnets are sold in packs of 10,15,20, and 30 and start at just $9.95.

**A portion of the proceeds from the Magnets For Fun Christmas magnets will go to the Susan B. Komen for the Cure in Memory of Ann Kelsey, mother of Todd Kelsey, creator of Magnets for Fun.**

I’ve recently been on the hunt for some nice extra tall bar stools to put by our kitchen counter/breakfast bar. So far, we’ve gone thru 2 cheap sets from some big chain stores and a wood set as well. Not being able to find a set locally, I have turned to the Internet, which has led me to AllBarStools.com.

After perusing the site for over an hour and looking through the large variety of stools they offer, I stumbled upon this:

Cute, no?
The great thing is the colors in the seat fabric match the colors of my kitchen perfectly!
I haven’t decided to order them just yet…..I’m secretly hoping the Alex will pick them up for me for Christmas.
Until then, I’m off to find some new kitchen chairs as well so I finally have a matching set!

My Must Haves for the Holiday Season

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pier 1 Imports. All opinions are 100% mine.

Every year, there are a few things that I add to my ‘Must Have’ list.  Now, I’m not always lucky enough to get them, but a girl can dream can’t she?

I also plan on doing some holiday entertaining in the near future!

Now, I’ve always been a fan of Pier 1 and the great decor they offer.  This year, I’ve picked the following items to add to my ‘Must Have’ list.

I love, love, love reed diffusers and Pure 1 had some great scents like Apple Cinnamon.

If I were going to finally throw the ultimate holiday party, it would require my owning the Snowball Dinnerware set complete with service for 12 along with the Swirl Glassware, Candy Cane Card holders and honestly, everything else with the Candy Cane design!

The above mentions of items I would like would be great for both my mother and husband to add to their shopping lists…..hint….hint!

Also, did you know during the months of November and December, you can support Toys for Tots by dropping off an unwrapped toy and/or making a cash donation at the register at any Pier 1 store? And, if you “Like” Pier 1 Imports on Facebook during the month of November, Pier 1 will donate $1 to Toys for Tots.

I can’t wait to start shopping!

What are your must haves this holiday season?
