Noonday Collection + Amazing Love and a Giveaway

Good morning friends and happy Thanksgiving week! I can hardly stand the anticipation as the holidays get into full swing!

And yesterday after getting the sweetest surprise visit from my bestie Claire when she heard I was sick at home and not at church (she raced over with pumpkin spice :)) I got to sit with my gorgeous sister in laws and mother in law too and sip peppermint mocha's and plan some of our holiday festivities (and had major girl bonding) it was such a gift and now I am feeling all warm and cozy and hopeful for the deep blessing that is the holiday season!


Today I am so honored to start off a week of fun giveaways with the incredible story of Noonday Collection. Whitney is my feature sponsor this month and let me tell you this woman is incredible. She has such a beautiful heart and works as an ambassador spreading hope and changing lives through the sales of fair trade goods handmade by women around the world. Empowering them to change their lives and the lives of their families and communities by way of working with their hands creating the most gorgeous jewelry, accessories and home goods.


I know that I will be purchasing several gifts this holiday season through Whitney and I am thrilled to know that the gifts I give will not only bless the recipient but deeply bless the woman who crafted them!


Whitney is offering a $50 gift certificate to one bit of sunshine reader this week to get you started on your Christmas shopping but I encourage you, please take a look at Noonday Collection. Put these items on your own wish lists and consider purchasing something through Whitney to give this holiday season. It will change lives and the stuff is adorable too so it's a win win!


This giveaway will be open through Friday November 25th simply leave a comment here letting me know what you would purchase with your prize. Extra entries will go to those who "like" Whitney's facebook page HERE as well as those who follow a bit of sunshine too...leave separate comments for each entry letting me know ok!


Happy Monday everyone may your week leading up to Thanksgiving be wonderful and may you truly be able to meditate on the deep blessings in your own life! xoxo

    I work on women's empowerment, stopping violence against women and ending human trafficking, so I was thrilled that you shared this site. The work is lovely. Hard to choose, but I think I love the patchwork journal and the bird cups. Thanks again for spotlighting fair trade and supporting women worldwide! Have a blessed thanksgiving!

    The 'freshly squeezed' cups certainly caught my eye, but so did half the scarf collection. Okay, and half the necklace collection too! Tough call!
