Pea Pod Paper & Gifts Giveaway Winner Announced & The Scoop on Lilly Furniture!

     Wow, is it really almost Memorial Day already? Time to clean out the closets! I need to do a major clean out to make room for my New Lilly Pulitzer Furniture!! I'll be going through every closet, jewelry box and Tote (yes, I have totes I still haven't unpacked since moving to Florida!)and will be posting all of it on Re-Lilly and The Pink Closet
     Are you doing a Memorial Day/Spring Closet Clean out? For the quickest sale on your unwanted items send them in to be listed for sale on Re-Lilly & The Pink Closet Re-Cycled Fashions! Re-Lilly continues to be the BIGGEST, BEST and fastest place to sell your Lilly Pulitzer!
So I've had a ton of people messaging and emailing me asking where I bought my Lilly Pulitzer furniture. See my Lilly Pulitzer furniture haul below!

Top Left: Tangiers Bed in Scorched Bamboo Retail $2,200
Top Right & Lower Right: O'Hara Bar Cart Retail $1500
Lower Left: Pink Boulevard Chair Retail $859

     A little back story..... HFI Brands produced the Lilly Pulitzer furniture line. I had my eye on the Aster Bedroom Set (Bed, Vanity, Mirror and bureau), the Boulevard Chair (to go with the vanity) and the O'Hara Bar Cart but couldn't justify the hefty price tags for furniture I didn't "need". When I heard HFI Brands had Closed and was no longer making the Lilly Pulitzer furniture I was a little sad to think I would never get to own Lilly furniture. 
     Then a Lilly friend (Thank you Melonie C.!) had shared with me that a discounter in Jacksonville, Florida had some Lilly furniture for sale! Jax is a 5 hour drive from where I live in SW Florida and I don't own a vehicle large enough to carry a lot of furniture, so what's a Lilly Obsessed girl desperate for Lilly furniture to do? Rent a big truck and drive 10 hours!! After pricing UHaul Rentals, Truck Rentals, Freight Shippers,Gas costs etc. I determined it was most economical to rent a large truck and spend the money on gas and time driving myself to get this Lilly furniture!! I had called and the discounter does not ship, cash and carry only. After chatting with other Lilly Lovers earlier this week I embarked on this adventure and was lucky enough to meet another wonderful Lilly Lover there! I got to meet Mica, co-owner of Mica and Molly's in Melbourne, FL! <<<Click to visit her website.
     If you are looking for Lilly and want excellent service check out Mica and Molly's! I look forward to visiting her store the next time I am in the Melbourne area (side note, this beautiful area is home to one of our favorite Zoos, The Brevard County Zoo, where my Minnie loves to feed the giraffes!).

     The name of the discount store is Viktor's Payless & Groceries, a Salvage, Furniture & Grocery Store, think Big Lots or Ocean State Job Lots type of store. The place was hysterical, everything from pink Tic Tacs to cleaning supplies and groceries. The owner Viktor was fabulous to deal with. We literally arrived in the nick of time. We were taken to a nearby neighborhood to a warehouse where the Lilly furniture was kept. Viktor's phone was ringing off the hook with others desperate for Lilly furniture and people came into the store and bought his last 5 Boulevard chairs while I was there. 
     Viktor explained that HFI Brands assets were seized and all the goods were sold at auction where he bought several hundred pieces of each style, 500 of the Boulevard chairs! He had designers and decorators from Miami, Palm Beach, Boca and all over buying 20-80 pieces each. The furniture flew out the door, literally! The Boulevard Chairs were $150 each, the Bar Carts were $99 each, all have sold out. Don't despair, he still has King & Queen beds for $698 and Twin beds $598. Also still for sale is the white etagere for $298. Viktor asked me to share these items with other Lilly Lovers on Re-Lilly. See photos below
etagere $298


Tangiers Queen Bed $698



Tangiers Twin Bed $598
 
I tried to get a side view, but was difficult because it was cramped in the store but the detail on these beds is gorgeous!
Viktor and his employees were fabulous, they loaded my furniture for me and then strapped it down  for my long drive home.

The only other negative besides a 10 hour drive was the love bugs! ICK!!!  Florida love bug season stinks! You can't easily wash these buggers off your vehicle. I stopped several times at gas stations and didn't have much luck getting them off. By the time I got home I could barely see out of the windshield. Thank goodness this is a rental and I don't have to wash it! Love bugs are a small price to pay to live in paradise! A small price to pay for Lilly furniture. 


What a fun Lilly adventure! Next Lilly adventure for me is the Lilly Warehouse Sale! Are you planning to attend the Lilly Warehouse Sale? An event for Warehouse Sale Discussions has been set up on Re-Lilly, here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/events/132385576947081/

Sneakpeeq......Are You A Gold Digger?

Hello Re-Lilly & Pink Closet Re-Cycled Fashions Friends!

What is sneakpeeq? My New FAVORITE Flash Sale site! Fabulously Fun Social Shopping! Watch this short video to see what all the excitement is about!


 Click HERE to Join sneakpeeq and get your FREE $10

Sneakpeeq is FREE to join and using the link above will get you a FREE $10 Account Credit! Description from the sneakpeeq website: "Online shopping, with short sales, great deals, and new stores daily. Everything has a fixed price, that you can lower further by being more active on sneakpeeq and earning badges". Sneakpeeq has become a great source of Lilly like accessories for me! Amazing jewelry, handbags that coordinate well with my Lilly in addition to cosmetics/personal care and home goods. Sneakpeeq is a different spin on ‘group buying’, Sneakpeeq is an offers-based shopping platform that drops the buying price every time a user clicks on the product’s “peeq” button (much better than falling prices at Wal-Mart ;-). Once someone buys the item, it resets to the original price and resumes to price-drop once next next person ‘peeqs’ at the price. New Boutiques daily with prices slashed up to 70% OFF RETAIL! Sneakpeeq has daily bonus offers for extra discounts for peeking, sharing, liking and shopping! One of the current offers is FREE Shipping for the rest of this year on all purchases until 1/1/2013 after you buy 4 items! I LOVE FREE SHIPPING, Don't you?

What kind of items are Sold on SneakpeeqAccessories (think great jewelry and handbags to match your Lilly), Beauty Products (well known brands like OPI), Apparel, Gourmet foodHousewaresBeverages, and more! I'll post a few of my recent purchases below! 

Are you a Gold Digger? Or a Diamond Digger like me? My latest favorite purchase on sneakpeeq is Diamond Candles! The brand that hides a ring inside every quality scented soy candle. Each scented soy candle comes with a Diamond Ring buried inside! These diamond rings range in value from $10- $5,000! You never know until you burn your candle if your ring will have a $10, $100, $300, $1,000 or $5,000 value! Does digging for gold, diamonds, silver, platinum and gemstones sound like fun? This is Cracker Jacks for big girls! Here is a short video about Diamond Candles:  





Diamond Candles are currently on sneakpeeq for the lowest prices I have ever seen but hurry this sale ends in 1 day! ** Note Sale has been extended, ends in 3 days! Here are a couple of my favorite scents:
Cupcake

Tropical Retreat
Watermelon & Ring

I think they are a great value, I have spent more on Yankee Candles and prefer Diamond Candles! Below is a video of Customer reviews showcasing actual products, candles burning and ring removals!



Enjoy! On the Diamond Candles Website there is a comprehensive FAQ Section that answers all your questions. 

Get a ring that is the wrong size or not your cup of tea? No worries, there is a Diamond Candles Facebook Swap Page! Click HERE to Swap your Diamond Candle Rings!

What else have I bought on sneakpeeq? My FAVORITE Skin & Body Care Products, Pangea
For those not familiar with Pangea, the line is Organic, Plant Based ECOCENTRIC BODYCARE:
Always Beneficial, Never Artificial
ALWAYS
nurturing

handcrafted
organic & fair trade
cruelty-free

NEVER
petroleum-based ingredients
sulfates or detergents
synthetic preservatives
artificial colors or fragrances
GMOs

Complete product information on the Pangea Website, click HERE.

For Health Reasons I made the switch to Pangea. I tried many brands that are GMO/petroleum/sulfate free and always came back to Pangea, they are the BEST!! Pangea is currently on sneakpeeq at incredible prices! I just restocked on my favorite body lotion:
French Chamomile Hand & Body Lotion

My previous purchases include the entire Pangea Skin Care Regimen 
The Pangea Sale Boutique on sneakpeeq Ends in 4 Days! I highly recommend all of their quality products for healthy skin from head to toe!

My next sneakpeeq purchase will likely be this 24K Gold Plated Sand Dollar wrap bracelet from Love Of Pretty. I have a lot of Lilly that would match beautifully! Reminds me of the many Sand Dollars I have been collecting from Sanibel Island.

What are you waiting for? Hurry to sneakpeeq! Happy Shopping!
Cheers!
