CSN TABLE TOP EASEL REVIEW (and Le Creuset Baking Dish giveaway!)

 There is a wonderful online shoppers paradise out there. And it is called CSNstores.com.  It is comprised of over 250 specialized online stores that offer a huge variety of home goods including office furniture, bedding, lighting, stools, cookware, toys, baby furniture, and so much more. They have EVERYTHING!! 

 I recently won a KidKraft Table Top Easel for my son. This came from the All Children's Furniture store. I chose the espresso finish. But it also comes in a more natural finish as well. 

 This easel is so cool. It has a dry erase board on one side and a chalk board on the other. I also has wood strips that hold paper in place too. So not only can my son use chalk and dry erase markers to create art, but he can also color with crayons, regular markers, and even do finger painting. It also comes with two paint cups (and there are two nifty spots for them on the easel) and an eraser.

 This easel is a great space saver. It folds for storage too. But, my favorite thing about it, is that it is really sturdy. It will last a long time in my house....and my son can be pretty rough on stuff. I love that it is not one of the taller free standing ones...that could easily tip over and fall. 

I also like the price. I  think that $44.95 is a great price for something like this. And I like that because it is tabletop...it can even last into your child's teen years. It would make for a great homework or chore list. You can purchase this easel right here.

And now for the exciting and fun GIVEAWAY!!

I was contacted by a CSN rep to offer my lovely readers a giveaway! I was able to peruse their millions (okay...hundreds!) of stores...and choose an item to offer you guys. I finally decided on this:

 Le Creuset 9" Square Baking Dish. And even better....it comes with a bonus 5" Baking Dish! The color is amazing...a really pretty shade of Caribbean blue. I love how bright it is...and I really think that it would go great in even the simplest of kitchens. It is microwave, oven, refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher safe! The retail value is $59.95 and right now it selling for $34.95 at CSN's cookware.com store. So you can head there now and buy it (or something else)....and you can also win it here!!
