Giveaway Week Day 5: Simply Said Designs

Simply Said Designs is a relative newcomer to the direct sales world, but definitely not one to be overlooked. Their products are designed to inspire and create beautiful and personal spaces in your home. The vinyl wall designs are unique and will make your home feel more personal to you and your family. There are designs for everything from bedrooms to wedding designs, kitchens to scrapbooks. I especially love the clock designs.

Our sponsor today is Charity Guidinger and you can find her personal site by clicking here. She also has a Facebook page that you can go "like" by clicking here.  She is donating another one of my favorite ideas from Simply Said - a 'My Address' mailbox design (size A.)
The winner of the design will be able to choose from 10 different 'My Address' designs listed on pages 90-91 of the Simply Said catalog. You can customize this design with your name and address. (Click here to see the catalog.)

Here's Charity's story:
I am the type of person that avoids Pampered Chef and Mary Kay type parties like they are the plague. I never like to feel pressured by salesmen. So, whenever I was invited to a Simply Said party I found some excuse not to go. My sister decided to go anyways, and she brought back a Simply Said catalog. I began just casually flipping through the catalog, and I got really caught up in the designs. I asked my sister how the party went, and she said that it was really fun and laid back. She said they played a game and ate banana splits. She also talked about how the Simply Said rep messed up during her presentation, but it was no big deal and everyone loved the products anyways. The wheels in my head began turning. I had been looking for a part-time job that paid decently AND that I could work around my full-time job. So, naturally, the idea of setting my own schedule had a big appeal. I prayed about it and sought the counsel of my parents and boyfriend, and then I jumped in. It has been a joy all the way. It's very easy to get started, and I love getting to schedule my own hours!
