Love (And Thanks) Are In The Air
**Psst- We know most Fridays we just post once, but every month on sponsor shout out days we double up. So we’ll be back in a few hours with a post about cabinet surgery.
It’s time for our usual monthly show of gratitude to our sponsors. You know, the people who make the other 30+ posts possible, and generally keep us feeling all lovey dovey (hey, Valentine’s Day is nearly upon us, right?). So we tried to highlighting a few love/pink/red/heart related items from our sponsors (none of which have been gifted to us – here’s our no-swag policy). And if you need a little extra love, check out of some of the special discounts bulleted at the bottom. Happy early V-day to one and all (cue the cheesy *smooch* sound effect).

I love the Smock Paper card, so cute!
I love BM’s Moroccan Spice color. It’s so bold and I can’t wait to see how you ended up using it for in your house. Are you going to keep it on the walls (I imagine it makes a good accent wall)??
Nah, everything for the book has to be “undone” until it comes out so it doesn’t “leak” on the blog- haha. So we could repaint it later if we’d like (we do love it!) but it can’t stay!

I think you mean that you’re “singing ‘Umbrella’” rather than signing it. :)
I love sponsor Fridays because there are 2 posts instead of just one!
Haha- yes we do! Off to fix that!

Thanks for the coupons! I used your code at the Tile Shop to do our master bath tile and accessories. Now, to finish painting in there…
Aw, good luck!

I love that geometric rug! Too bad they don’t ship internationally. Although if they did the shipping costs would be huge so…
and I can’t wait to know what you’re up to with the book projects, it’s going to be hard to wait so long!
You know what? I know you don’t want to leak anything, but it won’t matter a pin to those who are looking forward to your book! I can’t wait to see it and will definitely buy it!
Aw thanks so much!

That rug is really neat!
Just wanted to let you know that I made use of your shades of light discount yesterday (for 2 new sconces for our new basement bathroom)! Thanks! :)
So glad!

I was going to ask if the WallQuotes discount code was still active but I see at the bottom of this post you still have it. I just tried to use it about half hour ago and it didn’t seem to do anything :) Just FYI. I will call and see if they’ll do it over the phone.
Aw man, we’ll send them an email to ask. Maybe it’s case sensitive? Did you try yhl15 and YHL15? Sometimes they’re different! Hope to have an answer to you as soon as they email us back!

I tried to use the YHL15 discount yesterday on the wall quotes website and it told me that it wasn’t valid. Any clues about that?
Aw man, we’ll send them an email to ask. Maybe it’s case sensitive? Did you try yhl15 and YHL15? Sometimes they’re different! Hope to have an answer to you as soon as they email us back!

An avid reader and first time commenter- I just wanted to tell you that because of your blog I signed up for a Hometalk account, and last week I was their winner of a $250 gift card to West Elm! How awesome is that?! Thanks!
Wahoooo! Congrats Crystal! That’s so exciting!

Great ideas, wow..do you have an assistant? That took alot of time!!!!
Looking forward to getting a stencil from Royal Designs with your code offer. Thank you so much!

I just ordered the small ribbon damask stencil and got 10% off thanks to you! Now I have to get to work on my hallway. Have a great weekend! ~Linda
Aw, good luck Linda! Happy weekend!

My hubby got me a necklace with our son’s name on it thanx to your discount! the only negative is that it says not to wear it in the shower. I’m the type that puts on earnings or a necklace and wears it for months. So, I’ve worn it in the shower and it is fine!
Yes, I tried a few different combos but got nothing. I’ll wait to hear from you. Many thanks for the reply!
Ohh– lots of great leads on here. Love the $1.00 cards- I’m ordering a bunch right now!
Just ordered tons of awesome $1 cards from Fabulous Stationery! I’ll be well prepared for every b-day, engagement, thank you note that needs to be written for awhile and SO affordable! Thanks for the tip!
Just an FYI – I tried to use the YHL10 code on the Initial Presents website and it won’t allow it to be applied. It goes to a funky page! I just thought I’d say something incase others run into the same issue.
So sorry for the trouble! Did you try putting it in as a lower case code (sometimes they’re case sensitive so YHL10 doesn’t work but yhl10 does). Hope it helps!

I did try that, too.. and nothin! I’ll try again later.. maybe it was the computer I was using! Thanks!
So sorry! We have an email in to them (and Wall Quotes) so we’ll get back to you with whatever we hear! Hope it helps!

Hi! So sorry about that! We have fixed the glitch!! Please try again or call our store and we’ll help you out! Thanks so much for checking us out!
Beth
Yay, so glad it’s fixed!

Another vote for the yhl15 code not working at WallQuotes. I called them too and hopefully will hear back soon. Thanks!
Let us know if they get back to you sooner for sure! Thanks!

I just now discovered Joss and Main. Where have I been? This is amazing!!!
I’m a little frustrated with Shades of Light website. I think it’s poor service that the manufacturer isn’t listed on the website and that’s very misleading in my mind. I know it’s a common business practice so you can’t find the same product at a lower price on another website, but it’s annoying when you’re trying to do home renovations on a budget.
So sorry Heidi! Maybe try emailing them or calling them to tell them how ya feel? I’m sure they’d value the feedback!
