Are you excited for summer? YAHOO! I am! We’ve already had some fantastic spring weather here in the Northwest to spoil us into expecting the perfect summer, so I am definitely excited for more of the same!
Speaking of an awesome summer, I have something SUPER FUN for you today to KICK OFF SUMMER! 20 of some of my favorite creative bloggers each put together a special summer gift basket, a handpicked collection of THEIR favorite summer things! YAY! We are joining together for a fun blogger’s Favorite Things Summer Blog Hop!
You can visit each of the 20 bloggers listed at the end of this post and enter to win their gift basket on their site. I’d suggest you enter each giveaway because someone has to win, and it might as well be you! But you can enter just one or as many as you like.
But first, let’s talk about my giveaway for you!

For my favorite summer things basket, I put together a “summer by the sea” themed giveaway (which you can see in the very top image). Because you know the ambience of the sea is my very favorite!
I picked these items especially for you during one of my “out to see” shopping trips at Anthropologie and I stopped in Paper Source for the pen and journals.
It’s a special gift from me to you, oh one lucky winner.
The winner of my giveaway will receive a special box from me in the mail with everything you see pictured above, including my favorite ANTHRO CANDLE (the Volcano! WOOT!), an adorable sea salt guest soap, a cute whale pen just like I use in my own office, nautical journals to jot down vacation memories, and the most adorable Anthropologie WHALE MEASURING CUPS! I know, can you believe the cuteness? Love love love.
Plus, just to make this extra exciting, I’m adding in several fun SURPRISE mystery gifts that are not pictured in my collage :).
