Green Holiday Giveaway #8: Stonyfield Organic for the Whole Family

December 5, 2013 0

Have a love for all things Stonyfield Farm? You are in luck – today’s giveaway is yogurt goodness from Stonyfield!

The prize package includes a Chicco reusable messenger bag full of Stonyfield fun: a Stonyfield cookbook, a YoKids cape, Stonyfield reusable water bottle, preserve reusable yogurt cup, and coupons for some of your favorite Stonyfield goodies!

We have been long-time fans of Stonyfield and our fridge is always packed with their organic yogurts, milk and frozen yogurt too! We recently made our favorite holiday coffee cake and replaced the sour cream with Greek yogurt – it was amazing and saved us a ton of calories and fat!

Every morning, Eben starts his day with Stonyfield yogurt – right now, he is completely obsessed with Banilla. He loves it – says that it tastes just like pudding for breakfast!

Eben and I have a little love affair with the Vanilla Fudge Swirl frozen yogurt – yep, that’s right, Stonyfield offers frozen yogurt! Uh-mazing!

Stonyfield obsesses over everything they put into our delicious organic yogurt, milk, frozen yogurt and smoothies, and everything they keep out. By saying no to toxic persistent pesticides, artificial hormones, antibiotics and GMOs, Stonyfield says yes to healthy organic food. With a huge variety of smooth-and-creamy, fruit-on-the-bottom and blended yogurts, there is something delicious for everyone. Fans of thick and creamy Greek yogurt love Stonyfield Organic Greek Yogurt. And YoBaby, YoToddler and YoKids have the nutrition parents want and a taste little ones love.

Want to stock your fridge with some Stonyfield products, enter the giveaway below – good luck!

Green Holiday Giveaway #6: FLOR Eco-Friendly 5×7 Carpet Squares Rug

December 4, 2013 0

Today’s next giveaway is amazing – FLOR is generously offering a 5×7 eco-friendly area rug of your choice right in time for the holidays. Hooray!

I am obsessed with FLOR carpet squares because they are versatile, eco-friendly and super simple to install. And if by chance one gets a stubborn stain or your Pug or Frenchie decides to chew on it – you can replace the single square, and you are left with a new rug!

We have worked with FLOR before and used our carpet squares to make smaller rugs that we use in our kitchen and bathrooms. One of my favorite parts are they don’t slip and slide around when placed on tile or hardwood and they are super sturdy, easy to maintain and always look good!

We recently partnered with Flor to update our family room – we choose the Vintage Vibe-Cream carpet tiles to give our family room a sophisticated update. The Vintage Vibe tiles have a traditional Moroccan Beni Ouarain – diamond shaped “star-burst” design with subtle irregularities that honor the characteristics of ancient weaving techniques. We are super happy with the results and love that the size is totally customizable since our family room is longer than it is wide! (Watch for this makeover post in the New Year)

If you are looking for a great way to update a room, add a little coziness or a pop of color – check out FLOR carpet squares. You will be super happy with the finished look and feel – and it’s sustainable too!

Visit FLOR and enter the giveaway below – winner will be announced on December 11th.
