I'm so excited to be participating in my first Favorite Things Exchange with some of my favorite bloggers!
I sent MY favorite thing(s) that were $10 to 2 bloggers and received favorite things from 2 other bloggers. It's such a fun idea!
I sent my favorite things to Jacie from
The Fella Life and Shandy from
Happy Meets Home. Here's what I included in those packages:
I wasn't quite sure what I could send that I loved that was $10, but I decided to share the favorites that I always buy at Target! My favorites that I included are items that I have in my purse and at home at all times.
I always stock up on notepads, post-its, pens and pencils at the
Target Dollar Spot. I have a set in my purse, a set in my blogging/laptop bag and a set in my junk drawer. I can't help but replace them every season!
Target has the
cutest mini travel bags in their travel section. Just browse their travel products one day and you will spot them. They are the perfect size for purses/diaper bags and they always have the cutest prints. Bonus? They are only $1.97! I have several that I
keep in my purse, diaper bag, pool bag and park bag, so I wanted to include one of those.
Lip balm is one of those things that I can't live without. I have lip balm stashed everywhere, but the main problem I have is that I lose it in bags and can't find it quickly. I love
EOS because of the bulky shape. It's really easy to find when I'm feeling desperate!
The e.l.f.
waterproof eyeliner pen is easily my favorite waterproof eyeliner. I keep one in my purse and one in my makeup bag at home. I always wear it when I'm going somewhere. It's bold, it goes on very easily and it lasts. Plus, at only $2, it's a complete steal!
I snapped a picture of MY favorite things just before they went into the mail, but I only had my cell phone and I wasn't thrilled with the quality. I went straight from Target to the post office with 7 kids that day, so I wasn't thinking and forgot my camera!
Instead, I decided to share a picture of MY favorite things straight out of my purse. Although the colors/varieties are different, the products are still the same. The only difference was that I sent a 2 pack of pens instead of just one!
I had a lot of fun browsing Target (even with 7 kids) and picking out my favorite items that I wanted to send!
I loved everything I received in return, too!
The first package I received arrived from Emily, who blogs at
Three Boys and a Girl.
Emily sent
Living Proof Perfect Hair Day dry shampoo. She also tossed in some peanut butter M&M's (which I snacked on while writing this post) and two cute hair ties!
I rely on dry shampoo several times a week, so I love to try other brands. I really liked this one and it's the perfect size to keep in my purse! Thank you for sharing your favorite with me, Emily!
The second package was from Sarah, who blogs at
Seeing All Sides.
Sarah sent
Batiste dry shampoo in floral & flirty blush. I love the scent! I especially loved Sarah's way of keeping it real. In the note, she confessed that she sent her favorite thing straight from Amazon because a trip to the post office with 2 kids is not her favorite thing. Oh, I completely understand!!! Thank you for introducing me to Batiste, Sarah!
Obviously dry shampoo is a busy mom's best friend! When I was trying to decide on my favorite thing to send, I almost went with my favorite dry shampoo! In the end, I decided to send a package of my favorite things that I always buy from Target.
