Blessings Unlimited

I love Giveaways.

But 3 at one time?  Crazy, huh?   I didn’t really plan it this way–it just sort of happened.

I have 3 Giveaways going on right now, each for $50 towards great Blessings Unlimited Meaningful Home Decor and Lead & Cadmium Free Tableware, making for a total of $150 you could win towards these great products.

Want to find out where to enter and what I like about this company?

Keep reading to find out the details.

I’ve written a few posts sharing what I really like about Blessings Unlimited.

First of all, I’ve never been that great at decorating.  But their products are beautiful, making it easy to fit them into almost any decor.  I know, that isn’t really a “health” thing and this is basically a health blog, right?  Well, it does help me have more sanity when decorating and sanity is about health :-) .

Secondly, their products all have meaningful messages that brings real health to my life.  I really enjoy looking at something and not just thinking it’s pretty, but also reading something uplifting for my soul.

Third, all of their tableware is Lead and Cadmium Free.  Did you  know that a lot of dishes, mugs and the like have lead and cadmium in them?  Think of those scrapes on your plates and marks in the bottom of your mugs.

Turns out the glazes used on dishes can often have lead and cadmium in them.  Not something I want in me or my family’s diet.

Ick.

If you missed my post on Could You Have Metal Poisoning and Not Know It? ~ Part One, you will want to read about how we found out that we were exposed to a lot of cadmium.  It’s a very interesting story.)

There are more things that I like about Blessings – like the fact that they employ people with fair wages and that they aren’t about a lot of hype.  They have good products and they care about their consultants and don’t want a lot of pushy sales stuff going on.

Here are some of my favorite products from Blessings Unlimited

Anyway, look at these beautiful Blessings Mugs.

I just bought these mugs and now in the morning, my youngest son asks for “the Blue Mug” and asks to have some of my Homemade Healthy Coffee Substitute in it with stevia and my Easiest Homemade Coconut Milk.  Blue is his favorite color :-) !

One other great product that I just bought on clearance is this Tiered Server.  You can mix and match the bowls and plates that go in it….or even be inventive with things like small flower pots.  The Small Footer Server goes great in it.  NOTE: The Clearance products are only available until 7/31 so if you like them act now.  You can “like” my Blessings Facebook page to see all of the great Clearance Items.

Here’s the Large Footed Server that I love also.  I had some really not so great serving bowls that have now been replaced.  They had cracks in them and I’d picked them up at a garage sale.  So now I have some very reasonable beautiful serving bowls – with no toxic coatings.

You can enter in 3 different places to win a total of $140 of prizes – your choice!

    So excited to find your website. We are in the process of selling our home and getting property that we can have a garden, chickens, goats, etc. Will definetely keep in touch with you. LOVE Meaningful Home Decor. Having scriptures right in front of you throughout the house – what a fantastic way to be an encouragement to your family and those coming into your home. We could certainly use these in our new house!

      Welcome, Angela!!! How wonderful to have a new place. We’d love to have chickens and goats…though what a learning curve! Let me know if I can help. I am offering wholesale products to anyone who would like to have a catalog gathering. Thanks!

    Adrienne: So funny! I thought I was leaving the comment on the The Prairie Homestead and it accidently clicked on yours. I have been subscribed to your blog for a while now and thoroughly enjoy it. Maybe we could do a post together on getting our first animals!

      Sad to say, they are not legal in my city. Maybe it will change someday. Hubby wants to walk to work, so I don’t think a farm is in our future. For now I am setting w/ a garden :-) .

    for those of us unsentimental types, who might like something more modern, fiestaware is almost virtually lead and cadmium-free AND made in the USA. older (vintage) fiestaware may not be as pristine, particularly if it has cracks and/or fissures..that’s where the leakage issue could be a problem. so if you’re buying new and want something a little simpler, this could be a good alternative. i love it..it mixes and matches with anything…

    I love this style. My parents have sets similar to this that we use every holiday. Good work finding the Cadmium too. Keep that out of the house.
