We have just been officially announced on the OpenSky blog! I am so terribly excited!! Here is what they had to say!

"April of 2Slicks Good Times

Remodeling can be difficult, especially when doing it on a budget. April and her husband have been remodeling their home for years and seem to be enjoying every minute of it. Using the DIY approach they find affordable ways to make their home homey and stylish. In 2Slicks Good Times, April has assembled an eclectic collection of pieces to breathe some new life into your home without spending a fortune."

I hope you will take a moment to drop by my Shop! We should have a special COUPON offer for more savings coming VERY soon! Keep an eye out for the details!

Here are just a few of the great products currently in my Shop!

Grand Opening!

April writing...

It's finally here! The Grand Opening of my 2Slicks Good Times Shop at OpenSky!

Here's the skinny...
I have recently partnered up with the OpenSky Project. It's a wonderful community of Bloggers turned online shopkeepers! Each shopkeeper is unique and is passionate about specific areas of interest. They share products along with their opinions, products that you may already be shopping for!

I have started with a good quantity of quality products in my shop, with the hope of sourcing out many more products in the near future! I will endorse products that I use and products that I love; even products that catch my eye! My hope is to also use these products in conjunction with our home remodel and decorating adventure!

OpenSky is GREAT! It takes care of all of the sourcing and shipping through their extensive resources and vendor partnerships. I will simply pick the items that I personally recommend and they go and find them - no substitutions. Of course I make a small percentage of the sale by doing so and use that to pay for the remodeling and decorating of our forever home!

We are offering some great products right now...

Things for the home:

Products for your sweet tooth!:

Even products for a perfect summer picnic outside and fun with the dogs!:

I look forward to bringing you the greatest products and hope that you will drop by regularly for new ideas and products! If you have any products you would like to see in the Shop, just let me know!

Anticipation...
