I Won the Madsen Creations Giveaway

So a while back Madsen Creations was doing a giveaway-you know me and free, I just can’t resist.

As I always say:

“Free is always good unless it is diseases.”

Anytime I see a giveaway I have to enter it.

So I did and I won!

So I actually won two things. The first was a Barbie inspired Flower Wower Dress made from orange and white cotton fabric.

Now you know I love the 1970s:

Farrah’s hair, movies, music:

But I wasn’t quite sure about this shirt as I am not a big orange fan (it’s just not my color). However, I loved this as it was extremely comfortable, although a bit shorter than I would like. I wear it with trousers or leggings.

The second item I was super excited about. It was a Maroon Fleece Caplet. A short capelet with a matching floral printed ribbon.

So I don’t know how many of you have read this book, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, but I did and loved it! I was so excited to win this capelet as Juliet wears one in the book. The movie changes a lot of things, one of which is Juliet’s outfit. In the book she wears a red capelet when she goes to the island, so that the society members know who she is (kind of like a red rose on a blind date). In fact, she almost loses her nerve and flings it overboard, but decides to continue and of course has a wonderful time and adventure.

This past Christmas we had Santa Claus, Queen Elsa, and Princess Anna come into the library, and I of course wanted to wear something Christmas-y. I decided to wear the capelet and everyone loved it! They all thought it was supposed to be a play on Anna’s costume.

Since then I have worn this multiple times and everyone compliments me on it and I love it! It is beautiful, wonderfully constructed, warm, and a great accessory to any outfit. It has become one of my favorite things to wear.

You should defintely check her site out for what she has, and if there is something you’d like that she doesn’t have-she also makes custom items.

Plus, you can get 10% off anything you order by entering the promo JANEAUSTENRUNSMYLIFE, the last day to use it is 2/29/20. Don’t miss out.

Frozen Solid

So I’m not sure how many of you out there has seen Frozen, but I absolutely loved it! I wasn’t sure I was going to as it was based on the book The Snow Queen by Hans Christian Anderson, but didn’t look like it was going to follow the story at all. The Snow Queen was nice instead of evil. It made me think of Winter’s Child a retelling of The Snow Queen by Cameron Dokey and a part of The Once Upon a Time Series. I thought it was extremely adorable and recommend for you to watch it, especially those of you who have sisters. Watch it with your sissies! My favorite characters were Kristoff, Anna, and Elsa.

So on Quizilla, do you all remember Quizilla? When it first started I remember my friends and I were on it ALL the time, doing all kind of quizzes and making our own. It was a fad that died out, like Myspace, as we all found better addictions (pinterest 😉 )

So I came upon Quizilla the other day through a pin someone did, and I saw a quiz for which Frozen character you are. I couldn’t help but check it out. Here’s my results.

I have to say that I think I am a Kristoff. I loved his responses as they were the ones I would have made myself. Who tries to marry a person after only one day? He’s awesome, he’s actually my second favorite Disney prince. First will always be Prince Phillip. Love him!

If you want to take the quiz too and see who you get go here.
