Cyber Monday: 30% off! (And Last Day to Save)

We're wrapping up our Black Weekend event with a cyber Monday sale: 30% off your order!

This is the last day to get a discount at So Sew Organized. If you have been putting it off, now is your chance! Use the code CYBER30 to get 30% off your entire order. Offer ends at midnight Monday night!

I've been busy sewing away and am so thankful for those of you that have taken advantage of the sales this weekend. I trust that So Sew Organized can be a blessing to you this holiday season, and that you will remember the One that gave us the Ultimate Gift...the true reason behind our Christmas.

Need some more gift inspiration? Check out these selections from the shop:

Totes and scarves make great pairings!

One of my new favourite things to do it pair two different colored scarves with an outfit. It adds a nice fullness and warmth plus the different stripes of color is fun! (pictured is the purple with dark gray, and navy with light gray.) Adding multiple things to your order helps save on shipping, too!

These burlap totes have been a hit, too. They are machine washable, and shed very minimally. It would be a great gift to fill a tote for a teen girl or adult lady instead of a traditional stocking! What gal doesn't want another handbag??

What items catch your eye? Which ones would you love to give...or receive!....this year?

Hello...er, Goodbye??!!

*************************************************

We're doing something a little different around here today, folks. Instead of a typical hello Monday post, where we greet the new week with a smile and reflect on the past week, we're saying goodbye.

Goodbyes are hard. Trust me, I've had my fair share of them!

I don't want this to be a sad goodbye for you, however. Parting can be sweet sorrow, in this case! That is why I am giving you this one last chance to grab the healthy living eBook bundle before it is gone...because in just 8 hours (midnight EST) it will be, forever!

So lets take a moment to say goodbye, shall we?

Goodbye, over $1,000 worth of eBooks that will help me provide nourishing meals for my family, take control of my own health, and give me the knowledge to keep harmful chemicals and toxins out of my home.

Goodbye, $288 dollars worth of ecourses, including a fitness challenge, essential oil course, and helps for grocery store savings.


Goodbye, bonus memberships, store credits and other freebies worth $200.

Goodbye to endless healthy, nourishing recipes and free, cute recipe cards to put them on.

If you purchase the bundle through my links, just contact me in any way and let me know...I'll send you these specially designed recipe cards for free!

Goodbye to all the best, trusted healthy living bloggers and their best resources all in one place.

Are you about ready to be done with the goodbyes? I am! :) Put an end to my foolish goodbyes, and pick up your bundle now in the final hours. I really, truly don't want you to miss out! If you are still on the fence, why not read these testimonials from people just like you, or browse through the list of authors and see what they have to offer?

I know $30 might seem like a big commitment...but I think I am safe to say that you spend WAAAY more than just $30 on other areas of your family's health and wellness. Am I right? This is $30 that you WILL get back in long-term benefits!

I'm done talking now. Just go get the bundle. The End. And Goodbye.

One Small Step at a Time

My own journey to healthier, greener choices did not begin until I was out of college. As I started to read blogs, research real foods and recipes, and make some healthy decisions for myself I found that I was quickly overwhelmed! Things like grinding my own flour, knowledge of herbs and herbal remedies, essential oils, etc. etc. went way over my head. Too much information, not enough time and money!

It is easy to feel like this healthy living thing is just a fad, and sales gimmic, and a way for companies to get more money. But after learning more about what we are really putting into our bodies each day and the truly negative effects it has, I have come to realize that it is a very important topic! Our bodies can not function the way God intended if we do not have the support and nutrition that he designed for us to need.

But it does take work, and it does take money...precious money we might not have. Trust me, I get that! I don't have the money to shop at health food-y, organic-y stores all the time. So along the way, I've tried to make small, healthier changes as I am able. Do I always eat grass-fed beef? No. Does my makeup contain all natural ingredients? No. But each time I make one small change that is one more area that is helping my body work how it was designed to work.

Here are a few of the simple changes I've recently made on my own healthy living journey:

Non-GMO cream for my coffee - I use Stonyfield. The ingredients on this carton are better than many other creamers, and the No GMO, no pesticide, no hormone standard makes me feel better about the whole thing. I love Stonyfield yogurt for breakfast, too.

I use lemon juice to boost immune system, and pair it with honey for a cough. I can count on one hand the times I've put drugs or antibiotics in my system. I know this isn't possible for everyone, but it is one small step that makes me happy! The lemon juice and honey methods that I shared with you here have worked well for me for several years now.

I recently started using Hydrogen Peroxide for a mouthwash. People, this is huge. I absolutely hate the flavor, but I'm doing it anyway because I hate going to the dentist even more. :) I dilute it with water and swish it around my mouth every night. Peroxide is the ingredient in whitestrips and whitening toothpaste, so this should not only clean my mouth and gums but whiten my teeth as well! I also use Peroxide to clean up foot fungus as I explained here.

I bought the Healthy Living book bundle. I know, maybe this doesn't seem like a "small step" to you...but I believe it is one of the easiest small steps you can take! It is available at the click of a button, and will provide you with so many resources and helps for whatever area of healthy living you are interested in. This is one small step we all can take....what are you waiting for? Take this step with me right now!

The Healthy Living bundle is no longer available...thanks for taking an interest! Subscribe to my blog to read more about my healthy living journey and get a heads up when the next bundle is available. 

*************************************************

These are all small changes, I know. Compared to other people, I still fall way short, but that is why we don't compare ourselves to other people, right? {wink} I know I still have a long way to go. I know buying cream at the store is still cream from the store, not the farm. But it is something. And I believe it is better to do something than nothing at all.


Here are some other healthier changes I've read about and would like to try:

The "no 'poo" hair care method. If you haven't heard of this, it consists of not putting store-bought shampoo and conditioners in your hair and using natural ingredients instead. You can read about it here, here and here. There are possible side effects, however, after years of using baking soda on your hair: here is an example, and here is another. So perhaps just the occasional use of this method would be better? I've also heard that coconut oil strengthens and protects your hair, so maybe that fits into the routine somewhere?? We'll see!


The oil cleansing method for my face. You can read about it here, here, and here, but basically this is removing harsh chemicals and letting natural oils clean your face as they were intended to, with only a little help from you.

And other natural beauty routines. Here is homemade hairspray, deodorant, zit zapper, makeup remover and face scrub, just for starters! One step at a time, people...

I'd love to hear what small steps you are making, or what steps you want to make in your own healthy living journey! Have you tried any of the things I mentioned above? Feel free to share, and of course we won't compare your story to anyone else's. {wink!}

Great Healthy Living Resources

Most of what I've learned about healthy living, I've learned from other bloggers around the web. I'd love to share a few of those resources with you today!

These are some of the ladies I've learned the most from. I'm also including some fun Pinterest boards to follow, and I'd love for you to share your favourites in the comments section below! Let's get started, shall we?

Laura blogs at Heavenly Homemakers, and I can really say that she was the first one to kickstart my research into healthy eating. She has inspired me in so many ways, and I love the whole food recipes she shares for free on her site! You saw that her No Yeast Bread recipe was the first one I cataloged on my new recipe cards...I can't wait to try it!

Laura is very real in her writing. She makes me laugh every time I am over there, and best of all she loves Jesus. So her blog is a great place to spend a sliver of time each day!

Merissa from Little House Living is a blogger I have come to admire. She homesteads and shares many recipes for how to make household things from scratch, using healthy ingredients.

MaryEllen from Imperfect Homemaker is both a real-life friend and a blogging friend. She shares practically and candidly about her journey to Healthier Living - all the way from eating 40 boxes of Pop Tarts to the healthy living resources she shares now. She also has healthy recipes on her blog!


Perhaps the easiest way to find great Healthy Living resources is through Pinterest. Here are some great boards to follow!

Follow Jennifer Fountain @ Growing Up Triplets's board Natural Personal Care on Pinterest.

Follow Rosilind Jukić's board All Natural Cleaning on Pinterest.

Follow Keeper of the Home's board Using essential oils on Pinterest.

Follow Keeper of the Home's board Eating well on a tight budget on Pinterest.

Follow So Sew Organized's board Healthy Living on Pinterest.

Follow So Sew Organized's board Whole Foods Diet on Pinterest.

And last but not least...

There is the Healthy Living Bundle available for just 4 more days. There are so many resources in this bundle no matter what area of healthy living you desire to learn more about. Here is the complete list of resources...why not start out by choosing one or two books on your desired topic, downloading those, and going from there?

Just the cost of a few of these books would normally be the price of the whole bundle, so the bundle is totally worth it!

I challenge you to read through the details, and purchase the bundle... your family's health is worth it!

We want to lose some weight, have more energy, use greener products, create nutritious meals for our families, get fit, and feel confident that we’re doing all we can to prevent serious diseases.

The bonuses include free goodies aplenty: a bottle of Healthy Mouth Blend from OraWellness, a baltic amber bracelet from Sweetbottoms Boutique, and a starter culture from Cultures For Health. You’ll also get gift sets from Made On Skin Care Products and Homegrown Collective.
There are virtual goodies, too – a 4-month membership to StayAtHomeYoga.com and a 3-month premium membership to meal planning service Tradishen. And as if all that weren’t enough, there are also $15 gift certificates for TheJoyfulGiraffe.com, Strawesome.com and Trilight Health.

There are a few things in life that lately have really been exciting to me lately.

Pumpkin in anything (now that I bit the Autumn bullet)
My brother visiting from Canada
The amazing response to the pencil pouches in my shop
My Kindle app and the opportunity to get hugely discounted eBooks that are all geared towards a healthier lifestyle for me!

I'm here today to tell you about one of those exciting things...any guesses as to which one?

I'm thrilled to let you in on part of the secret...there is a huge eBook bundle coming to an inbox near you! available now!


I am always quick to promote these bundles because...

...I'm a fan of getting deeply discounted items
...I'm a fan of the theme of the bundle. Having a healthier lifestyle is one of my big "things" right now!
...I'm a fan of what these bundles stand for and represent. These bundles are put together by bloggers like me. The authors are, in most cases, bloggers, moms, and home-preneurs. I love supporting them, what they stand for, and the great resources these bundles have to offer!

Here is what you will get from this bundle:

Over one thousand dollars worth of ebooks for $29.97 - this blows my mind.
Over two hundred dollars worth of freebie bonuses - in most cases these are free samples and products, and I'm really excited about the ones offered in this bundle!
A virtual library of resources that encourage you to take charge of your family's health, gives you real food recipes and resources to help you learn, and offers fitness and weight-loss encouragement. There are also resources for people with allergies and healthier choices for products in your home and lifestyle.

The bundle will be available next week - I am not allowed to give out exact dates yet. :) Sorry! But here is a proactive step you can take to possibly get your bundle for free!

If you sign up to receive an email when the bundle is available for purchase (so you don't have to wait a second longer than necessary!) you will then be given a unique link to refer others to do the same. If you get a friend to sign up, (they don't even have to purchase the bundle, just sign up for the email!) you get $5 off if you purchase the bundle. If you get 10 friends to sign up, you get the bundle for absolutely free!

This option is no longer available, but the bundle itself is! Click here to learn more and here to get your own copy!

You know that I would not recommend this bundle if I wasn't absolutely sure it was a great resource for my readers. I personally can't wait to purchase my bundle and see all the fabulous resources in store!

There is a lot more to come in the next couple of weeks that relates to a healthier lifestyle. I am so excited to learn more and bring you right along with me! But for now, sign up here. I personally thank you, since this will help me towards getting my own free bundle, but you will thank yourselves, as well, once this fantastic resource is in your hands...er, inbox! =)

Questions or concerns? Let me know! Who is excited to take a step with me in the journey to healthier living? Comment below with one area you desire to learn more about.

Garden Party Hospice Fundraiser

Last Saturday I had the privilege to participate in a hospice fundraiser! Despite threatening clouds and downpours the night before, the day turned out to be pleasant and the attendance was good!

This was my first time as a vendor at a larger event like this, and it was so fun! The fundraiser was held at the beautiful Fieldstone Gardens, and although many of the flowers were not in bloom yet, the ground were still lovely and well kept.

My cousin and I set up a canopy to share and both were vendors: she sold Pampered Chef, and I sold items from So Sew Organized!

This was my first time setting up a whole booth, and I was a little unsure what to expect. But I was pleased with the number of people interested in my product and the number of sales I made. Hopefully I'll be able to be a part of another event soon!

Psst! You can find all these items in my shop and grab your favourites!

Blogging Growth and a SCARY New Opportunity

The bundle referred to in this post is no longer available. No previous affiliate links will generate any sales or income. Be sure to subscribe to my blog to learn about the next Ultimate Bundle! Read on to learn about a fantastic opportunity I have as a blogger.

Like most bloggers out there, I am always looking for ways to grow and learn as a blogger. I like trying new things, whether it be in blog design, social media, or challenging myself in my writing. There is always a sense of accomplishment when I finally get the hang of something new - like the time it took me two hours of being buried in my HTML to figure out the picture flipping-thing in this post. Seriously, how fun is that!!!!??? The picture flipping-thing I mean, not the two hours of HTML. :)

That is one of the main reason I am so excited about the blogging books offered in the Ultimate Homemaking eBook bundle.




There are some fabulous books here that I didn't even know existed before the bundle, and I can't wait to learn from these authors who have so much to share. I'm already using some of the printable pages from the Blog Planner by Sarah Avila, because seriously, they are just so cute! I love using cute printables in my planning!

Just these blogging books alone are worth $38, but in this bundle I got them for only $29, PLUS 73 other eBooks PLUS 10 freebie products!

This deal is absolutely, positively worth it to me, especially in light of something exciting that happened last week. Yep, I have some pretty exciting, this-is-a-huge-deal news to share with you. This is the second reason why I am so excited about these blogging books!

Wait for it...

I was asked to hold a workshop at a Writer's conference. On blogging.

Little 'ol me, speaking on blogging??? I'm seriously like the smallest most insignificant blog in the entire World Wide Web, and they want me to talk about it????

I don't mind telling you, I kinda freaked out and got scared and nervous all at the same time. But I'm also really excited...excited that this will push me and stretch me to do something I've never done before. I think it will be a help to my blogging overall, and give me the push I need to bring my blog to the next level.

I'll be using the helps and books from the bundle over the next few months as I organize my thoughts and decide what exactly to speak about. I'm so thankful for those that have gone before me in the blogging arena that I can learn from!

Today is the last day to purchase the bundle. These eBooks and courses will never be available again in this form or at such a discounted price.

The kind folks that run these bundles have graciously made it possible for you to buy now and pay on May 1st instead of today. So if the money is just not available for you until payday, you can still get the bundle! Here is their official statement:

"You asked, we listened. We've heard from many who want to buy the bundle, but simply don’t have it in the budget until May 1st. Since the sale ends for good on Monday, April 28th @ 11:59 PM, we’ve come up with a way for you to have your cake and eat it, too. From now until the sale ends on Monday night, you can choose to order the bundle but defer payment until May 1st.
By completing this payment form, you are purchasing the bundle today, but your card will be charged on May 1st, 2014 in the full amount of $39.97 (Kindle version) or $29.97 (PDF version). Once it has been processed, you will receive access to your bundle."

There is another way to purchase the bundle for even less than $29! You can buy 3 of The Ultimate Homemaking bundles for the price of 2. That means each bundle only costs $19.98. This would be a great way to give the bundle as a gift, or you can go in on it with 2 friends and you all can get the bundle cheaper! If you don't know of 2 other people that want the bundle, let me know you are interested and I'd be happy to pair you with some other people that have requested the bundle.

Go here to get the bundle now before it is gone. Remember, it ends at midnight tonight! Be sure to let me know what you think of the bundle and what your favourite resources are from it.

The Ultimate Homemaking Bundle - coming to you tomorrow!

This bundle is no longer available. No previous affiliate links will generate any sales or income. Be sure to subscribe to my blog for the scoop on the next Ultimate Bundle!


Tomorrow is the release of the Ultimate Homemaking Bundle. I can't wait for you to get your hands on this fantastic resource!

This bundle includes:


There are 78 eBooks, plus 10 bonus offers that include free products. Just the free products alone add up to a total value of $197.45, and you get all that plus 78 eBooks for less than $30!!

You may wonder if it is worth it to purchase this bundle. After all, these authors are also bloggers and the information in the book is all from their blogs, right? WRONG! We've been discussing this on our FB group with the authors, and they've assured us (and our readers) that these books are full of new content...in fact, this bundle is the ONLY way you can get some of these books!

Here is a run-down of things you need to know for tomorrow:

1. There are two bundle options, one with just pdf. files and one especially for Kindle. The bundle for your Kindle cost $39.97, and includes the pdf. versions as well.

2. All you need to own this bundle is a computer. Once you've downloaded the files (took me less than 5 minutes to do!) you can transfer them to your other devices if you prefer.

3. You can pay with PayPal or a credit card.

4. If you have trouble ordering the bundle tomorrow, relax. There will be a high, high number of people trying to purchase it, which may slow the site down. There is a limitless quantity of this bundle, so you don't have to worry that it will "run out."

5. This bundle is only available for 6 days, so purchase your bundle early and then tell your friends all about the great resources inside!



If you have other questions or concerns, feel free to ask me here or read through this FAQ page. I'll be posting again tomorrow at 8am to give you the links where you can purchase your own bundle! Then throughout the week I'll be sharing the specific resources I've enjoyed from the bundle so far, plus giveaways and other fun stuff. Hope you'll stick around!

Coming Soon: A Homemaking eBook Bundle you won't want to miss!

**Disclosure: There are affiliate links in this post. That means when you make a purchase through those links, I receive a compensation. This helps support this site and the time it takes to keep it running.Thanks!**

Hang on friends, because you might be blown away by the fabulous resource I have to share with you today! There are $850 worth of books and resources available at a 95% discount. Read on!

Last year I participated in promoting a similar eBook bundle, which had over 35 ebooks available at a highly discounted price. These year, bloggers and writers across the continent have gotten together an even bigger and better bundle at the same discounted price!

What will you get in this fabulous bundle??

As an affiliate for this bundle (meaning that I am helping to promote these books and authors in exchange for a percentage of the sale) I was given access to the bundle ahead of time to review and share with you all. I purchased my own copy of the bundle yesterday, and I am already so excited about what is included!! We're not allowed to share the specifics just yet, but there are books on Faith, Homeschooling, Parenting, Working from Home/Blogging (yelp!), Food, Financial Stewardship, Homemaking and much, much more!

The Ultimate Homemaking Bundle will be available for purchase on April 23 at 8am EST. 

That is less than a week away! The cost is $29.97 for the PDF version, and $39.97 for the Kindle version (that includes the PDF copies in case you have multiple devices!) I'll be back throughout the next week with lots of other information including what to do once you've bought the bundle, what devices you need to be able to read these books (spoiler alert: just a computer will work!) plus lots of giveaways and online parties!! It will be a week of fun here on the blog that you won't want to miss out on.



I hope you'll stay tuned for the rest of the details in the coming days! You can click any of the pictures above to learn more about the bundle, and check out the FAQ's here.
