Delicious Recipes to Keep my Family of Four Happy and Full

A Big Thanks! {The Sponsor Spotlight}

By Leave a Comment

Each month, I like to take a moment to say a big thanks to the people and businesses that help make Just Us Four possible.  I love blogging so much and being able to bring you new recipes, crafts and DIY projects each and every month.  These sponsors help cover some of the costs of running the blog so I can continue to focus my funds on those fun projects 🙂

Have you ever checked out Layla Grace?
Their site is full of gorgeous stuff.  Right now, they are having a great Mother’s Day sale!  I was looking around for Mother’s Day ideas and fell in love with all  three of these: the Rosanna Bon Bon Bowl, the Rosanna Petite Plate Set {monogrammed!} and the Lollia Wish Parfum.  Be sure to use the code 4URMOM to save 15% off great Mother’s Day essentials.

One King’s Lane remains a favorite site of mine.  I visit each and every day to see what is new!  Right now, they have an awesome kitchen sale going on where I found these cute little bowls:

Sponsor Spotlight – March Edition

By 1 Comment

It is the end of March. Wow! How on earth did that happen so quickly?!

As always, we like to end our month around here with a big thank you to our sponsors!

Joss & Main is our newest sponsor! I can’t tell you how excited I am to have them on board. I have an alarm set up each day to be there right at 11am so I don’t miss any of the awesome items…like this awesome table I am eyeing as side table for our guest room.

I am still learning new things and tweaking my site based on the information I’ve learned from the Mom Blog to Money Blog seminar. I can see it already starting to pay off in ways and that makes me so excited!

Need a Style Reboot? I certainly felt like as I did as I was starting to sort through things for the upcoming Snap! Conference! I feel in love with this dress which I think will be perfect for the conference.

Along with new clothes for the conference, I also realized I needed some accessories. Of course, I turned to Stella & Dot . I love all of their stuff and, in April, they are donating 20% of their retail sales from their Autiusm Awareness Collection to the HollyRod Foundation.

Our fridge started beeping at me the other day because it needed a new filter. I checked out Fridge Filters and easily found what I needed and got it shipped here super fast!

We are redecorating H’s room and making some changes to E’s room too. That means I visit Land Of Nod a lot looking for different items that might work with our design. Right now, I am eyeing this bookcase which I think would work great in H’s room!

I’ve been doing a lot more projects with vinyl recently which means I need to add to my stash more often too! I always buy my vinyl from ExpressionsVinyl.com because I know I can trust the quality and the prices are great!

Summer is quickly approaching and hot summer days call for some bright, happening colors! Layla Grayce can help prepare your home and garden with beautiful summer essentials! Best of all, when you shop 3/30-3/31, Layla Grayce is offering free shipping with promo code freeship.

A lot of people ask me how I connect with sponsors? Here are a few places that I work with to connect with sponsors easily:

Sponsor Spotlight: February Edition

By Leave a Comment

The Sponsor Spotlight is going to move to the end of each month in the hopes that I can actually get it posted somewhat on time!

I am so very fortunate to work with some amazing companies each and every month.  They help Just Us Four stay up and running! 

Here are a few {you can always find all of my great sponsors on the right sidebar!} in the Spotlight this month:


I was hesistant to sign up for the Mom Blog to Money Blog workshop at first because blogging isn’t my full time job.  The sign-up fee seemed a little daunting but I took the plunge.  Man, I am so happy I did!  The workshop has been amazing and I love that I can go back and reference things anytime and make changes at my own pace.


I am spending more time doing projects with my CAMEO and always try to keep a bunch of vinyl on hand.  Expressions Vinyl is an awesome source for vinyl with great prices!

Sponsor Spotlight and a Thank You

By Leave a Comment

I hope the first week of 2013 treated everyone well!  I struggled a little to get back into the regular swing of things but am slowly falling back in my normal rhythm.

2012 was a great year for this little ole blog!  I owe all of the blog’s success to YOU, my dear readers.  Without you, there would be no blog and I’d just be that weird girl who talks to herself.  So, a big THANK YOU for coming here to read what I have to say and being so supportive 🙂

Also helping Just Us Four thrive during 2012 {and now in 2013} were some pretty awesome sponsors.   I know lots of people have mixed feelings about sponsors for blogs but my sponsors help me bring you more content and giveaways so I think they are pretty darn great.  🙂

Let’s take a look at a few of this month’s sponsors:

ModCloth

ModCloth is one of my newest sponsors and I am so excited to have them onboard.  I got a yellow infinity scarf from there recently that I am in total love with.  Seriously…the Mathlete had to ask me to stop wearing it because I wore for it at least 5 days straight.  Seriously cute stuff over there so be sure to check it out!

Stella & Dot

Another favorite of mine that has been a sponsor for awhile is Stella & Dot.  They have so many great pieces at really great prices.
A good friend of mine recently became a stylist for them and she is LOVING it!  If you are interested in earning some extra money or maybe starting your own business, I highly recommend you check them out!  During January, Stella & Dot Stylists who sign up will receive an extra $100 in product credit for a fabulous start to launching their business.

One Kings Lane

Now that the basement construction is complete, my work has begun with decorating it!  One Kings Lane is a daily must visit site for me because they offer some awesome finds at great prices.  I love going on to see the newest sales and see what I can find to help put the finishing touches on our newest space.

Pick Your Plum
Crafting is a serious hobby around the Just Us Four house these days.  Without Pick Your Plum, I think my crafting habit would totally break the bank.  Thankfully, I can get some cute {and super helpful} craft supplies at crazy prices just by checking in to see the deal each day.
YOU can see the new deal available each day right there in my sidebar!
