Dezign with a Z Giveaway

I was recently given the opportunity to do a review or giveaway for Dezign with a Z, who specialize in Wall Decals.  I could have picked to receive a sample OR I could do a giveaway in which one of my lucky readers would get a $30 gift certificate to use on any of the products at the Dezign with a Z website.

You may be wondering what exactly Dezign with a Z is all about, so let me enlighten you a bit.

"Our decals are easy to apply, removable and are able to be washed. All of our wall designs are created by young and talented designers from the United States and all around the world.

Our catalog showcases hundreds of different models of decorative wall graphics. With this many choices, there is something for everyone. From our animal and floral wall stickers, to our more modern and contemporary murals, you will find the perfect look for your walls.

We also recommend our contemporary digital canvas, wall clock decals, resin acrylic mirrors, or super sized decals to give your home a dramatic make over. Try our glow in the dark decals, our chalkboard and whiteboard stickers to add excitement to any kids' room. Customize your own decal with your favorite quote or sentence through our custom lettering section, or send in your favorite photos to have a unique sticker or digital painting made."

I went through a took a look and I see SO many cute decals that I would just love to add to my home.

Living on a military base, we are pretty limited to what we can do to our walls and it gets a little hard trying to turn a house into a home when you can't really put your touch on it.  I think though that using these adorable wall decals may just be the key.

For instance, how cool is this????  I think my Nicholas would be thrilled to have it.

I'm thinking Jasmine being the preteen she is and loving to draw and write, would go NUTS if I added these to her room.

I'm sorry, but are you KIDDING ME????  Being from South Africa I literally drooled at this one, I think I'm in love.

With amazing categories such as Abstract, Kids Rooms, Floral Art, Glow in the Dark and so many many more, I think you will find yourself drooling along with me. 

Did you know that they are easy to install, easy to remove and you can even WASH them?  Which if you're a mama like me, you know that having little kids and pets in the house, there's bound to be hand prints or tongue prints from my pugs on there.

So here's what I want you to do.
