Party in Your PJs, a Giveaway, and Spring Features

Welcome to another Party in Your PJs Link Party!  Are your kids on Spring Break this week?  My youngest, Ali Rose, is.  I can't believe that this will be the last "official public school" Spring Break for one of my kids.  I know it sounds crazy but I have had kids in the public school system in our small town for 33 years.  Yes, I am kinda old (but a "cool" old).  And no, my first few kids weren't spread out--I had 4 kids in just under 5 years. Then I spread them out a bit.  The last 2 (both girls) were "surprises".  Anyway, it will be a different life for my husband and I.  

The WINNER  of our $100 PAYPAL CASH GIVEAWAY (Party in Your PJs) is 

DONNA D.  

CONGRATULATIONS!

Two Chicks and a Mom have entered into a Giveaway with Canvas Factory!  

One lucky person will win a 16" x 20" canvas print, plus free shipping.

Enter HERE.

 

FEATURES (make sure that you visit the blog of each host--we all choose our own features):

Our Crafty Mom has a delicious recipe for 2-Ingredient Cherry Sweet Rolls.  YUM!

 

Refresh Living  shared a delightful Succulent Planter from a Thrift Store Find.

 

 Virginia Sweet Pea shared her Smith Mountain Kitchen Backsplash Update.  Looks great!

 

 I know Easter is over for this year but you can pin Purple hues and Me's Ribbon Decorated Egg for next year.  Beautiful!

Canvas Factory Print Review and GIVEAWAY

I was given a free Canvas Factory Photo Print (16" x 20" size) for this review.  All opinions are my own.  See our Disclosure Policy for more info.

 I am so delighted with the quality and sharpness in the Canvas Factory's  photo prints!  I chose to have a 16" x 20" print of my new granddaughter, Oakli, made and I LOVE it!

The photo colors are true to life and captures the lovely image of Oakli sleeping peacefully so well.  

The canvas is of great quality and looks so esthetic in our living room!

I chose to have the sides wrapped with the photo--it is a very chic look!

The colors in the photo are exactly as the digital prints that we received from the professional photographer who took little Oakli's awesome photos!

Such a sweet face and such a professional job on the photo!  Make sure to check out
Canvas Factory's website and see what deals they have and what prints, collages, etc. they can provide you with!

CANVAS FACTORY ALSO IS KIND ENOUGH TO PROVIDE ONE LUCK WINNER (IN USA AND CANADA ONLY) WITH A 16" X 20" CANVAS PRINT AND FREE SHIPPING.
