Did you have a chance to join my IG live today?

It was a rainy, gross Sunday here in Maryland, and I shared one of my top picks for the holidays—> LEGO but for BIG KIDS. 

Or GRANDPARENTS. 

Or PARENTS. 

Actually ANY grown-up who likes to unplug once in a while and CREATE. 

I showed how I was doing with the LEGO Flower Bouquet (🌷🌺💐🌼) and how many other awesome sets are 15% off and FREE SHIPPING (yayyyyy!!) over on @zulily 💜. 

Check it out. They’ve got a ton of sets to choose from, like

Find them here: https://zulily.gfpv.net/jWqkmn

Fab prices + free shipping = BIG WIN.

is only $34.99 on Zulily WITH an extra 15% off!

Stock up—think: teachers, daycare providers, classrooms!

This is a toy that I cannot recommend highly enough—perfect for littles through elemor middle school.
