207 IHeart: Organizing with Crayon Rolls & a GIVEAWAY!




It's funny because today's giveaway is geared for the kidlets.  However, they are so cool I kinda want one for me!

So what's SO COOL you ask?  Why the most adorable way to organize crayons I say.  No joke, the. most. fantastic. way!


I am so excited to partner up with my girl, Lani with Elle Dee Designs, to share these beautiful crayon rolls!!


Love right?  Lani is a crafty, fun loving sewing machine!  After 5 years as a nurse, specializing in Pediatrics, she has decided to take a break from the hussle and bussle of the healthcare world.  With amazing support from her friends and family, she started Elle Dee Designs to bring you handmade sweetness for you and your babies!  It all started with a few friends expecting little ones and has grown into something completely amazing for her.  How wonderfully inspiring is that?


So let's chat about how wonderful these crayon rolls are shall we?  Think about how easy it would be to travel with crayons in organized hand, whether in the car, at a restaurant, at the Dr. office or heading to a play date!  


Each roll is made from coloful prints and secured with a ribbon tie that makes it easy for little hands to roll up and tote anywhere!


And each roll comes with 16 crayons!




So who is ready to corral some crayons in style?
  • Giveaway is for a total of two Crayon Rolls {yes, there will be two winners this week!}  Each winner will have the opportunity to select a crayon roll for either a boy or girl in a surprise pattern!
  • Giveaway is open to everyone!
  • Giveaway is open from Tuesday, July 26th through 9:00 p.m. central time, Monday, August 1st, and will be announced right here on Tuesday, August 2nd!
  • Two winners will be selected using random.org.
  • Please ensure I have your email address to contact you if you win!

To Enter {each action requires a separate comment}:

Can't wait to win to get your hands on some crayon rolls or any other amazing pieces from Elle Dee designs shop?  Lani is offering all IHeart Organizing readers 10% off your entire order {on either her website or her Etsy Shop}, just use the code: IHEART10!  Offer is good through Sunday, August 7th!

Thanks everyone and GOOD LUCK!

  20. The crayon rolls are really cute. We have a smiliar one, but we never use it. It's too hard for my 6yo to tie the ribbon and it makes a crinkly noise whenever you unroll it. Maybe Lani's don't crinkle? A Velcro closure would be a great idea. Still, I would love to win one! Maybe hers are awesome, and my boys would actually use it. :)

  21. I joined her on FB and Twitter. We are expecting a baby girl in October and her pillowcase dresses are just TOOOOOO cute!!

    The crayon packet would also be SO handy! I'm a second grade teacher so pretty much anything with crayons - my heart melts. :)
