Holiday Giveaway Week! DAY FOUR: $25 Gift Certificate to Generation Cedar and $80 Worth of Gifts from Young Living Essential Oils
Today we have some great giveaway packages from Visionary Womanhood contributors, Kelly Crawford and Chelsey Hall. {PLEASE NOTE: There are TWO separate Rafflecopters; one for each giveaway. Also, if you are reading this in an email, you’ll need to click through to the blog to participate in the giveaways!} First is a $25 gift certificate to Generation Cedar. Here’s Kelly to tell you a little bit about her home business and how she got started writing and selling on her unique website for families, Generation Cedar.
It’s true what they say: “necessity is the mother of invention.” Our on-line family business began strictly out of financial desperation. Before I even knew what a blog was, I decided to make homemade skin products one year for Christmas presents. A Christmas where we worried if our lights would stay on. I’ve always thought it was more fun to face a challenge with creativity rather than despair, so we decided to try to sell the products we had made for gifts.
~Hand Stamped Note Cards~
We didn’t have a venue through which to advertise except friends and family, so when we heard about a “blog,” we felt that maybe the Lord was leading us to that. I am a writer and had so much I wanted to say, so it seemed like a perfect fit.
~Natural, Hand Crafted Soap~
Five years later, I feel very humbled and blessed at the blessings along the journey of Generation Cedar. The Lord has used it profoundly in my life to grow, challenge, and change me.
I am thankful to the Lord for the way He has used the Internet to bless our family in so many ways. I love its ability to allow me to be a keeper at home, do what I love, share with other women on the journey, and help my husband with our family economy.
We have added other products to our store since then: a Scripture Songs CD, born out of a desire to help families more easily memorize Scripture, eight eBooks, hand-stamped note cards, and an audio version of our first “Living a Legacy” conference.
~Make Your Own Skin Products eBook~
I am giving away a $25 gift certificate, good for any purchase on the Generation Cedar website.

Up until a few years ago, I really had no clue what essential oils really were, how they worked or how to use them. Then I went through a time of major depression and a friend suggested I visit her ND {Naturopathic Doctor}. She used a few different things to help me through my depression – one of them being essential oils. While there are a number of different kinds of companies out there that make and produce essential oils, there really is only one company I completely trust; Young Living. I did a lot of research in the beginning and found Young Living to be the most pure and the only company that was truly therapeutic grade and therefore many of their oils can safely be ingested. {I would NEVER recommend ingesting oils from ANY other company}.
The process Young Living uses when planting, cultivating, harvesting, and distilling a batch of oil is crucial to retaining its vital compounds. Without the exact blend of naturally-occurring plant chemicals, an essential oil can lose its beneficial properties and fail to produce the desired effect.
Once I saw how effective the oils were at treating different ailments naturally, I wanted my friends and family to enjoy the same benefits. I’ll be honest, I’m NOT a sales person, so I don’t really spend a lot of time trying to “push” these on people. I just like to tell folks about them and what they’ve done for our family. And if they are interested, they can purchase them through me.
Any money that I make from the oils goes 100% to our missions budget to help support us going to the mission field to the Philippines ( you can read that journey here: Our Journey to the Mission Field). For information on specific oils or any questions you can have, please feel free to email me at [email protected] , or you can check out my series I wrote on essential oils here: 5 Days of Essential Oils.
