14 Days of Valentines Giveaways: $50 to Just Paper Roses

Just Paper Roses is a gift site with (yes, you guessed it) paper roses, among many other sweet gifts. They have a great selection of gifts for your Valentine this year. Their site is not just for the big love day, but also has gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and more.

They even have hilarious toilet paper with I Love You From Top to Bottom printed on it. I was sent a roll and couldn't stop laughing. It isn't the best gift for everyone, but you know right away if you're in a relationship where it would work. If you are, you must purchase it. Hilarity shall ensue.

I also received a copy of a book written by Just Paper Roses founder Jeff Block. It is a pretty sweet story of someone who turned their hobby into a business. I loved it because it is similar to my love of vintage being turned into my full-time job. Living the dream!


The Giveaway: You can win $50 to use at Just Paper Roses. Just become a follower of this blog and head over to their store. Come back with a comment on your favorite item of them all. I love this.

14 Days of Valentines Giveaways: $150 at Manic Trout Courtesy of Runway Rundown CLOSED - Winner #339

So, you know how much I enjoy Runway Rundown, right? Well, here is another reason for it: Runway Rundown is sponsoring a giveaway for $150 to spend at Manic Trout. Pretty sweet!

Let's learn more about Manic Trout (from manictrout.com):

Locally and hand made, artisanal jewelry with a vintage edge: Manic Trout creates looks that are colorful, unique and incorporate unusual combinations of materials, textures and styles. Materials are what inspire the jeweler, designer and independent artist behind these handmade pieces: Sierra Bailey.

Her unerring eye for whimsical design comes to expression through unlikely elements such as vintage buttons and textiles, chandelier crystals, bottle caps, Venetian glass, and gunmetal wire and aluminum chains. Manic Trout balances the industrial with the beautiful: perfectly calibrated, vibrant retro chic.

Marrying the old and the new….novel expressions of texture and color…the classic with the unexpected: the Indie Manic Trout jewelry brand brings a certain funky finesse to a clichéd medium. Sierra riffs on traditional motifs, a 33 year old who puts her individual stamp on vintage and one-of-a-kind, with a quirky and individual twist.

“I create handmade, unique pieces that make you feel special and stand out in the crowd: modern meets vintage chic. Manic Trout makes great statement jewelry for everyday wear, which shouldn’t mean ordinary,” she said. “It’s perfect for in-between occasions, of which life mostly consists: not super casual, not super formal. My designs all work with jeans, suits, cocktail dresses: when worn, they help make every day seem delightfully spontaneous.”

Indeed, her slogan says it all: Jewelry for Life’s Manic Moments.
