Country Chic shopping at Plow and Hearth plus Giveaway-CLOSED

A welcoming room needs nice finishes before it can be really complete. This might mean curtains, candles or a colorful throw. My kitchen needed a great piece of artwork on the wall to bring it together; we found it at Plow and Hearth.

Plow and Hearth is a catalog, retail and internet company that specializes in the final touches to make any house into a home. They don’t just stop though; Plow and Hearth also offer unique products for outdoor living, gardening and apparel options. Think of stepping into your favorite garden center and they’ve added a room of country chic accessories and furnishings; this is Plow and Hearth.

My picture is beautiful and works wonderfully with the green walls and wood and wrought iron furniture. When I opened It I was pleased how bright red the flowers were. This particular print is canvas wrapped so no need to look for the right size frame and incur additional costs. Literally unwrap and hang. It instantly added a warm feeling, something the kitchen was missing since moving in.

Wordless Wednesday – Shae’s New Dress-up Station

Shae’s birthday is this Friday and this is what I made for her, a DIY dress-up storage unit for all of her costumes and accessories.




Shop with $100 at ATGStores.com Giveaway – CLOSED

Summer is in full swing and Rob, the kids and I are taking full advantage. We swim at the pool, we play at the park, we plant in the garden and we hang on the deck. Our deck gets FULL sun till mid afternoon so we knew we needed a nice big umbrella. ATG gave us the Decorative Vented Market Umbrella and it’s a perfect fit for our deck and personal style.

I was worried about the crank style operation; I thought it wouldn’t feel sturdy enough. I was wrong; the mechanics feel strong and I don’t feel like I’m going to break off the handle when I’m opening the umbrella. The umbrella itself is large; large enough to completely cover 2-4 people depending on the sun’s movement. I’ve been filling an inflatable pool in the deck and the umbrella allows the kids to play without the sun beating down on their little heads the whole time. We use the umbrella freestanding as we don’t have traditional dining style table and chairs. The umbrella is in a stand and it gets moved around the deck to cover the pool, group of chairs or whatever needs shielding from the sun.  It also tilts as you can see from the picture above, love this feature.

ATG Stores is so much more about umbrellas. With over 400 online stores and FREE SHIPPING you can furnish any and every room in your house with just a few clicks to site like HomeFurnitureShowroom.com, NewBabySupply.com and CookingandTableware.com just to name a few.

Visit ATGStores.comand find that perfect something to win here at LookWhatMomFound…and Dad too! Find 1 product with a maximum value of $100 and leave the link to your choice in your comment.

Hayneedle.com Recap and Giveaway-CLOSED

As everyone has to know by now we are finally moved and settled into our new place in Delaware. When Melinda and I were looking at places in Delaware the place we are living now really stood out because of a few things but one of the main features was the huge deck. Melinda and I discussed what we could get to make our deck a place where we would hang out often with the kids, family and friends. We had a bistro set but needed two additional chairs and another table to make the deck complete and Hayneedle had the perfect set of Adirondack chairs.

The good thing is Melinda and I decided in advance that we wanted a nice set of Adirondack chairs. So we went to Hayneedle and clicked on the Adirondack chairs link under patio and garden and we were taken to adirondackchairs.com. That is where were given a huge selection to choose from like painted wood, recycled plastic , cedar, teak and many more. After some searching we both agreed on the Big Daddy Reclining Adirondack Chair set with free side table. If you notice these chairs and I have something in common. I will give you a moment to figure it out. Has it come to you yet? If not I will give you the answer, me and the chairs are both called Big Daddy. This kind of made the decision easy for me. Who doesn’t like chairs that share the same name as them?

The chairs are a really nice kiln dried Asian fir with a weather resistant natural finish with an attached retractable ottoman. They came unassembled but it took only about hour total to put both of them together. The step by step directions were easy to follow and very detailed. The side table came already assembled so that setup in seconds. We are really enjoying our chairs so far and they are super comfortable to sit in especially with the ottoman out.

The journey began in 2002 as Netshops when Founders Doug Nielson, Mark Hasebroock and Julie Mahloch acquired Hammocks.com and saw potential to launch more sites each focusing on a certain product category. In August 2009 the name was changed to Hayneedle and a new easy to navigate website was unveiled. Hayneedle consists of 220 stores and counting each devoted to a single product category like dartboards.com and hammocks.com just to name a few.

Hayneedle.com is your one stop shop with so many stores and items to choose from you are bound to find what you are looking for.
Hayneedle is giving on lucky Look What Mom Found…and Dad too! reader one item of their choice worth up to $200. All you have to do is go to Hayneedle and tell me what three stores you like the most.

One Stop Shopping For Our Impending Move

As some of you might already know we are moving back to Delaware in June and we are pretty excited. In preparation for our move we are in the process of selling a few things so we can buy a few new things for our new place. Melinda and I are looking for a new TV stand, printer storage unit and bookshelf if possible.

We started looking to see where we could get the best prices and selection and are even started searching the web. We can across CSN Stores which has everything from recessed lighting to lamps to cookware to outdoor furniture.

CSN Stores a $200 million company, is comprised of more than 200 different shopping sites under the overall csnstores.com umbrella. Most sites are named for their primary product offerings or the styles they provide. These include: Luggage.com, AllModern.com, WritingDesksAndMore.com, Cookware.com, and BedroomFurniture.com.

I was really surprised about the huge selection that CSN Stores offers which is good for us because now all we have to do is go to one site and can shop over 200 different stores. How easy and convenient is that? If in the market for recessed lighting, luggage, or cookware be sure to stop by CSN Stores and I am sure they will have what you are looking for.
