Momma's Happy Place - Giveaway!!!

 
Where does a Mom of Triplets & Twins plus 1 go to "Get Away"?

If you remember, a while ago I mentioned my favorite room in my home is my guest room.  Since my oldest baby girl moved out with my grandson, I have taken over this space as my own.  And it's become known to all as "Momma's Happy Place".
 
If you are looking for me, most often you will find me in here.
 
I would like to feature some of my special things from this room.  The Complete Bedding ensemble from Midnight Velvet! This was a gift from my Mom for my Birthday & Christmas last year.  Keep an eye out soon for a Purple Version of this set!

This set is called the Bejeweled Romance Set. It's Dazzling…dramatic…and blooming with unabashed romance, this shimmering bedding will make you (or your guests!) feel like glamorous, Hollywood Royalty. This exquisite comforter ripples outward in six layers of satin ruffle "petals" with a stunning, rhinestone jewel center.
 
The Coordinating shams, accent pillows and window treatments also have the same Bling Jeweled centers and are sold separately. Polyester with polyester fill; spot clean or dry clean. I describe the color as Pale taupe or a champagne grey, its lovely.

And I am giving away a $50 gift certificate to my favorite store right here in my blog, so you can own some of these things, too.
   This is my first giveaway, I would like to have some fun and make my blog a place people like to keep an eye on.  Please share and enter every way you can!
 
 
Look at the Bling! Its a floral, swirly cluster of stones with icy long drops hanging from the center!


The sparkle cluster wall snowflake flowers are from Midnight Velvet and so is the Magnolia Metal Wall Art!
I love Marilyn Monroe, and the portraits are oil painted.  These were a gift to my daughter from my mom, but she did not take them to the new place...so they are mine now!  The black and white goes really well with the swirly black and white design I love.  In the above pic there is a "Life is Good" Silver shelf sitter.  That came from an online store called Through the Country door! www.countrydoor.com
 
I love restored furniture, so I often get old items redone to look antique. 

The other half of this room is my office and computer

Of Course NO room is complete without a leg lamp! I absolutely HATE the movie The Christmas Story, so its a running joke when the marathon comes on at Christmas, my mom and sister come with their favorite one-liners.  I had to get myself one! And honestly, its cute.


 
So this is my desk, another restored design.  Its a U-shape.  
Be Yourself!
And one of my most treasured things in this room, the Certificate of Appreciation I was given at My husband's retirement ceremony after his 27 years of service to the Army.

Mothers Day Cookie Chips from HannahMax Baking!

 Yummy Crunchy Strawberry Cookie Chips Ice Cream Sandwiches!
The kids love them.
 So, even though I said I hide my cookie chips in my nightstand, I got a huge Mother's Day care package from the company! Now that I have plenty left over to share, I do! And these are cookies I am proud to say my kids are allowed to have as many as they want! 

With No Trans Fats, No Artificial Flavors or colors, No preservatives and No GMOs, they can share these cookie chips all day! 
They are so good, I love the Cinnamon Sugar and Buttery Original, but having sampled each flavor multiple times, I no longer have a favorite! They are all delicious!
Thank you HannahMax Baking for my Mother's Day gift!
