Independents Day - Fathers Day

Be an individual, shop Independents

Here we are again on the 29th of the month.   The date each month we celebrate all Independent businesses.  As #IndependentsDay falls a little too late for retailers to send out in time for all things Queens Diamond Jubilee, I thought it might be a good idea to support all those hard working businesses who sell items suitable for celebrating Fathers Day on the Sunday June 17th .

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS

Any type of independent business or even if you have a favourite one you love to support you can join in.

If you have a blog, please write a short post mentioning and linking to three or so independent businesses you follow, buy from or just plain admire. You can of course link to your own business if you want to. Its all about building up the traffic to help people find our businesses.

Leave a comment below with a link to your blog so we can all pop over and take a look. It would be really great if you would link back to this post.

Tweet about the independent businesses you are supporting and mentioning the hashtag #IndependentsDay

Link or share this or your own post on your Facebook page and encourage others to share

You don't have to be an independent business to get involved or have a blog. Comments, tweets and Facebook mentions will all help enormously.

We are really fortunate to be sent lots of lovely things to review.  Mostly they are for the home, for me or the twins.  So it made a lovely change to be offered an item for the bigger boys in the household.  Hubby although "a modern man"  isn't a great wearer of jewellery.  Jacob (No 1 son) on the other hand considers himself the coolest teenager around and more than happy to accept the open disc personalised bracelet from Merci Maman to review.

Described as a personalised charm bracelet.  This is an on trend waxed cotton braid with a sterling silver disc which you can have personalised with your own words.  Jacob choose "“Veni, Vidi, Vici “ on one side and on the other side “No pain, No gain “

Jacob loves his bracelet and hasn't taken it off since receiving it.  He highly recommends it and that is praise indeed coming from a 16 year old !
