The National Wildlife Federation is giving away free butterfly garden kits. You can get yours by taking the pledge and uploading a photo of yourself making the international sign language for butterfly.

Here’s what the kit contains:

  • Seed packet with native milkweed or a flowering nectar plant
    • Monarchs drink nectar from flowers and their caterpillars eat only milkweed
  • A list of milkweed and nectar plants native to your region
    • Ask your garden center for the best plants on our list to add to your garden
  • Ranger Rick Nature Notebook
    • Observe your garden and the butterflies, caterpillars, and other wildlife that make it their new home!
  • Butterfly Heroes Sticker and Poster
    • Show your Butterfly Hero Pride!

Doesn’t that sound really cool? I’m loving all the gardening freebies lately.  Free seeds from Feedabee are still available if you missed it last week.

Church Hill Classics Frame – The Perfect Gift for Grads!

Do you have a loved one that’s graduating soon? Believe it or not, graduation season is almost upon us! It’s always an emotional, exciting time for grads and families. After years of hard work, dedication, and sacrifice, the payoff has finally arrived. Such a huge achievement should rightfully be celebrated.

I’ve always struggled when it comes to selecting the perfect gift, and evidently I’m not alone: In a recent survey conducted by The Motherhood, 98% of respondents who have a relative graduating from college this year haven’t purchased a gift yet.

Cash and gifts card are great, but why not give something more thoughtful and long lasting, a gift that will remind them, everyday, of what they’ve accomplished?

Shoppers can choose from frames featuring unique, color-enameled medallions of the school seal or athletic logo, beautiful campus images, foil embossing of the school name and/or seal and even an opening for a tassel. Customize your frame with different frame moulding and matting options to get exactly what you like. There’s something to meet everyone’s personal style!

After all of the time and money spent earning that degree, no diploma should end up in a drawer, forgotten about, or even destroyed! (Can you believe many people never frame at all?! I think that’s a tragedy.)

Church Hill Classics and The Motherhood are hosting a Twitter party, tomorrow from 1:00-2:00PM. Join the #EarnItFrameIt chat to learn more about these unique frames, as well as other graduation topics. These prizes will be awarded to randomly-selected participants who answer the trivia questions correctly:

  • (2) $100 diplomaframe.com gift card grand prizes
  • (1) varsity letter frame (valued at $94)
  • (1) graduation autograph frame (valued at $80)
  • (1) “class of” themed photo frame (valued at $20)

Want another chance to win? Enter this giveaway, and a custom diploma frame up to $200, could be yours!

Head to Wal-Mart for this awesome deal on bottles!

Buy Playtex VentAire baby bottle, on sale $5.47. Use a $5.00 Manufacturer’s coupon. Total: $0.47!

Many Wal-Mart stores also have Playtex Nipples 2-packs for $4.97, so those would be totally free with the same coupon, provided you can find them. My store didn’t, but I found the bottles.
