Life According To GreenVics 2013 Holiday Gift Guide.


Here are a few of our favorite things from the past year that we have worked with, and enjoyed at Life According To GreenVics. I will be adding a lot more through out the month.  Some have Giveaways, so always check out my Side Banner for Current Giveaways!


The Swiss Colony 82 - Favorite Things Box has made it to the Gift Guide, not only because it's delicious, but the quality of the 82 items inside, and the fact it's a 10 Lb box filled with snacks, and treats that everyone in my family enjoyed made this the epitome of Meat/Cheese/Chocolate/Nuts/Jams/Mini Tortes/Breads Gift. Retails for $129.95, Check out my The Swiss Colony Review here, or go directly to The Swiss Colony, to drool over more treats ( I go for the Mint Chocolate Cheesecake Eye Candy.) 


Lugz  Laurel Shoes have become my go to house shoes, and my lazy slip on's for outside.  What made these Holiday Gift Guide worthy were the Warmth, Softness, and just overall ease of wear.  It also doesn't hurt that these shoes only retail for $29.99.  Great price, and lot's of unique colors to chose from.  Check out the my Full Review for Lugz Laurel in Turquoise, and Lugz.com for more Colors, and Shoes!


Barts Cookies was a delightful treat.  Honestly, the best way to describe these cookies is to compare a cookie, with 5 cookies on top with the trickery appearance of a cookie dough ball.  It really is a sinful treat. They were thick, moist, and full of  chocolate chips.  I tried the Chocolate Chips, and the Gluten Free White Chocolate.  They've earned there spot on the Gift Guide by just being how Chocolate Chip cookies should be.  Sweet! You can read my full Review for Barts Cookies here, and Go drool over some Barts World Famous Cookies on BartsCookies.com.


Awesome Deck of Awesome make the perfect gift.  I say this because wouldn't it be nice to just give someone a card that says they are awesome.  Even if it's for no reason. Just because.. they ARE awesome.  The concept behind these cards are Lto share positive reinforcement by handing out Awesome Deck of Awesome Playing Cards. Each card is a different way to express how awesome your child is. Give a card just because, or reward for a chore. Once every card is collected it finishes a puzzle on the back. Your Awesome is Legendary is one of my favorites. You can find Awesome Deck of Awesome on Amazon


Stache Tats are the OG of Temporary Mustache Tattoos.  What makes these Holiday Gift Guide worthy are how unique, and playful Stache Tats are.  They were easy to apply, and to take off. They also do favorite sports teams, different holidays, and just funny designs too.  Check them out! You can find my full review for Stache Tats, and hubby wearing a Pumpkin stache by going here.  


California Delicious Gourmet Gift Sets made our rained in day a lot better. It may have been a gloomy, rainy day outside, but we still had  an al fresco California Delicious picnic inside. We love Cheese, and Meat Sets in this household.  What really impressed us were the layers of goodies, the freshness, and taste of everything in the set. Check out my review for the California Delicious Gourmet Cutting Board Gift Deluxe.


Guylian Chocolates are artisan chocolates that are beyond Holiday Gift Guide worthy! I was blown away at the smoothness of the chocolate. Even the no added chocolate bars were sweet, and smooth.  Biting into the hazelnut truffle filling melted instantly into my mouth.  Please check out Guylian Chocolates to find out what else they have! Also read my full review for Guylian Chocolates.


ISeeMe! has the perfect Personlized Holiday Gifts for all of our little scally wags to swash buckle to. Like this custom Adventure Book by Name, made for my son He is into Pirates BIG time right now. We play Pirates, every, single, day, he has every pirate ship imaginable for his age. Yes! I encourage his imagination. Check out my Full Review here for ISeeMe! for this Hard back, Custom, My Very Own Pirate Tale Book.


From War To Peace recycles old Midwest underground cables that used to be used for launching nuclear weapons into beautiful gift designs, they won the 2012 Gandhi Award for their Peace Bronze jewelry.  Check all their different jewelry, and gifts out online.  You can also read my full review for The Tree Of Life From War To Peace Jewelry.


PlanToys Wooden Toys are made from recycled rubber trees for over 30 years.  Not only are these toys playful, but they are also educational.  You can read my review for PlanToys Stacking Bear, and The Mood Memo's here.

Lugz Fall Shoes Review, and Promo: FALLBOGO !


Love, love, love, LOVEEEEE these shoes from Lugz.  Lugz has a new line called Laurel.  What made me want to try these beauties on were the soft, faux fur inner lining.  

As you can see, these are the Turquoise/Koi/Cream/Taupe Laurel Womens Shoes.  

Right now there is a Fall Buy 1 Get 1 50% Sale by using code:  FALLBOGO

I had a hard time choosing between the Turquoise, or the Amethyst.  Both are beautiful, vivid colors. I refuse to let the Gray skies of Ohios Fall/Winter bum me out, and bring a little color pop here, and there. I've been stopped by strangers in the store that ask me where I got my moccasins from.  It's that bright turquoise that make them unique, and why I really do love them so much.  I also have native american in me.  My great grandma was Choctaw Indian.  

Lugz Laurel also has a rubber traction outsole, so bring it winter! I walked around outside while it was a bit wet, with wet leaves on the ground, and the shoes suede survived. So did myself (meaning I did not fall, and break my tail bone.)

These retail for $29.99,  with the FALLBOGO sale, that ends 10/28/2013, You can get TWO pairs of the Laurels for $45ish plus Tax, & Free S/H. There are also some really nice mens Boots! 

Here are the Mens,  Lugz Drifters that my Hubby is enjoying, These are on sale for $59.99.


He's going to call me his rotten wife when he sees this photo I just posted.  I like it, ;D  But those are the Lugz Wheat/Cream Drifter Boots.  They are absolutely perfect for this weather.  Or for, tip toeing down the sidewalk.  He had to stop, and pose pretty for me.


Check Lugz out on Twitter, and Facebook! The great thing about social media.. You'll get updates about new products, and promotional codes.

{ Giveaway } Pictures On Gold Heart Locket Review & Giveaway

Life According To GreenVics Holiday Gift Guide, All PicturesOnGold.com orders placed before December 16th, can use promo code: HOLIDAYS12  , to receive 10% off their entire order.  Read my review below, and scroll to the bottom to enter the Giveaway to win a Sterling Silver Locket (2 pics, Engraved) that comes with an 18inch chain too.


The quality of the Silver locket, and chain I was sent to review really blew me away.  I also have to admit this was the fastest personalized item I have ever received.  The same day I picked out my two images, and what I wanted etched on the outside in script was the same day I got a delivery confirmation from UPS that I had a package coming!  I received my locket in 2 days! I just have to thank PicturesOnGold.com for being so fast, and the product truly is beautiful.


My fur baby of 12 years passed away this month, so I thought it would be adorable to have his picture etched in the locket along with my sons baby picture.  Both of these images are from the same photo of them laying next to each other.  I just wanted that memory of Sy (2years ago) cracking up at himself, and Stew laying next to him being lovey to be kept around my neck at all times.


This was the picture I used.  It's not the greatest quality photo I could have sent them, but it is my favorite I have of them two that was taken with a cell phone. It still looks great etched in color in the locket.  I love it.  I know some bloggers don't like to say they "Love" things, but I 100% mean it, when I say that I love this locket. Usually anything this personalized, the better quality (higher mega pixel) photo you have, will always look better on a personalized item. I think the cell phone photo I used even turned out perfect.


The locket itself is Sterling Silver, with an 18 inch chain.  I had Pictures On Gold engrave "Love Always" on the outside of the heart locket.  


The packaging made me so giddy when I opened up the box.  I saw the black velvet box w/the cute black bow inside the jewelry box, and was all.. Awwww yaaaaah, You know it's going to be something good when the packaging already makes you smile.




U.S Residents Only. Cannot mail to PO BOXES, Giveaway begins 11/25/2012, and Ends 12/09/2012. Winner will be chosen at random via rafflecopter. Winner has 4 business days to respond to winning email, if no reply is made, prize is forfeited and another winner will be chosen at random via rafflecopter.
