Welcome to a new sponsor ~ For Girls Like You. For Girls Like You is a Christ-centered magazine for girls ages 6-11. Buying single issues, bundles of past issues, and/or a subscription is a great gift idea for your daughters, granddaughters, nieces, etc.! From the site:

At For Girls Like You Magazine we are dedicated to exposing girls (age 6-11) to all the things they love (travel, positive role models, creative projects, etc.) without the negative imagery and advertising that often appears in mainstream entertainment. Instead we want every article, interview, and photo to support a Christ-centered system for our young girls!

Check out the holiday specials too - like getting a free journal with a subscription or 25% off a 3-issue bundle! Be sure to Like For Girls Like You on Facebook and follow them on Twitter too! And of course it's free to subscribe to the blog.

Keeplets ~ Wear and Keep God's Word {Review & Giveaway}

**Giveaway closed.**

I get to share a little more about one of my May sponsors with you today - Keeplets! 

Keeplets are bracelets, key fobs, and key fob wristlets that hold small cards with Scripture verses. They come with a set of Scripture verse cards so that you can swap them out whenever you like!

Jennifer from Keeplets blessed me with a bracelet and key fob wristlet to review. And she sent me pink, which just so happens to coordinate with my blog. :) They are both well-made and the bracelet is adjustable with the snaps, which ended up working great for my small wrist. It's a very comfortable bracelet and it's simple to put in a favorite Scripture verse card. I decided to start mine out with Galatians 6:9 to encourage myself not to weary in homeschooling for these last couple weeks! :)

The key fob wristlet is definitely a great help for a busy mom with her hands full. Keep your keys on your arm so you don't lose them while keeping your hands free for all your other mom duties! Of course you don't have to be a mom to find a great use for Keeplets! The bracelets are also a great idea for homeschooling  kiddos, youth groups, VBS and more to help each child memorize Scripture verses.

Guess what?! I get to give away one set of a Keeplets bracelet & choice of wristlet or key fob - winner chooses the print for both!! So one of you will get to try these lovelies out for FREE!! Thank you to Keeplets! But you don't have to wait - you can purchase your own right now and take advantage of the 1 of Each Special {Get a key fob AND a bracelet for just $18!!}!

**Giveaway Closed.**  How to Enter:

 ~ Stop over at Keeplets and come back to leave a comment telling me which product ~or~ print ~or~  pack of verse cards are your favorite.

Extra Entry {optional & maximum of 1 extra entry}:

 ~ Share about the giveaway using your favorite form of social media and come back to leave 1 comment letting me know.

Giveaway will remain open through 9pm PST Thursday 5/24. Winner will be chosen by Random.org.

Be sure to "Like" Keeplets on Facebook to hear about current offers and specials {no extra entries given, but maybe virtual hugs - LOL}!!

Disclosures:  Keeplets is currently a sponsor on my blog. I received a free Keeplets bracelet and key fob wristlet in order to provide an honest review. As always, opinions are my own!


Have a blessed day friends!
