Small Business Saturday 2015

I hope you had an amazing Thanksgiving holiday and are now getting into a festive spirit! I thought I would let you know about some small businesses, so if you are looking for gift ideas and want to support a smaller company, look no further! Pour yourself a cup of coffee or hot chocolate or wine and have fun browsing and shopping!

SaongJai

SaongJai offers heartfelt, handcrafted, Catholic and vintage items. Aleesa and her sister Courtney were born and grew up in Thailand, but presently live and make their gorgeous jewelry and rosaries in Oregan. Aleesa describes Saongiai as “a bit of everything for everyone here…our shop is a little universal kind of like our beautiful Catholic Church!”

I love how they have jewelry for mom and her little girl!  I really enjoyed browsing their etsy shop, lots of beautiful rosaries (including custom name ones), rosary hangers and even a sew your own Nativity Set.

If you shop now from SaongJai you can buy one get one at half off when you use the coupon code BOGOPWC  That means you can buy one Saint Therese’ bracelet for you and a friend!

Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed… Cabbage.Patch. Diary. What I had v. what I needed…
When I discovered this in my basement, my daughter grabbed it and ran off… I still have some speed left in me. “Secrets” recovered 😅.

Writing in a diary or a journal is much different than writing and sharing on social media… especially for kids and teens. Dr. Leonard Sax (author of The Collapse of Parenting) shares in his talks how writing in a diary or journal is living… but writing and posting is performing.

The young need the space to write out of the public eye.

Also… remember the Cabbage Patch Kids 😂!?
