A few of my my favourite ways to take advantage of the longer daylight hours that come with the spring season. Plus, an exciting giveaway from JORD watches!

Hey there friends! Happy Friday, and welcome to Personally Andrea! Today I'm excited to host a contest from JORD Wood Watches.  You'll have to head over to my Instagram to enter, the link will be at the end of the post. Every entry will receive $25 towards a JORD watch, and one lucky winner will receive a $100 e-gift code!  Woo hoo!

Gift Guide for Students and Twenty-Somethings

Gift ideas for the college and university students on your Christmas list, and the twenty-somethings just starting out on their own.

Once again, I’m excited to be partnering with Ten Thousand Villages on this post. As always, all ideas and opinions are entirely my own.

Well my friends, it's one month till Christmas.  One month.  till.  Christmas.  Yikes!  Isn't it time to get shopping?  So raise your hand if you love a gift roundup... *raises hand*. I personally love them all.  I find them super helpful, or at least super fun.  And I thought I’d put out one of my own. One for students and twenty-somethings, because that’s who I have on my gift-list. So I consider myself a bit of a pro on that age group.

You had me at hello…and a giveaway

Hi there everyone!  Can you believe we’re halfway through May already?  Where does the time go?  

So, “you had me at hello…”  Quick, name that movie.  Or if you happen to be a guy reading this (like Mr.P.  who totally always never maybe reads this blog…)  Show me the money!!!   Isn’t it crazy how a movie can be reduced to just one line?  So this post isn’t going to be about THAT movie.  But it will be about how you can have someone at hello too.

One Hundredth Post and a Giveaway

So technically this is my hundred and first post, and the one hundredth was on Friday when I posted the photo framed here as my Photo Finish 6.  One hundred posts.  Wow.  I don’t know if I really saw myself pursuing this so far…it started out as a whim…I was taking a course that involved a lot of photocriticism so I was looking for a forum to post some of my photography with some text to go along with it.  And then I also thought Why don’t I post photos of the gifts and favours I sell so that customers can check them out online.  So that’s how it began..…Honey, I need something techy…
