Giveaway : June Jars

 I am so very excited to present you with our very first giveaway!
It only makes sense that our inaugural giveaway is in partnership with June Jars, owned by our besties, Amelia & Andrew. They launched the June Jars shop this past year as a local alternative to what is found on seemingly affordable online shops that are suddenly unaffordable when you calculate shipping. Amelia found herself in this exact position earlier this spring, & decided to make one for herself, instead. As she carried it around town, she was constantly being asked if she took orders, because as it turned out - Richmond, VA loved June Jars. It actually loved them a lot, & soon June Jars were flying off the shelves of many local shops. It has been an absolute joy to watch this shop take off, even expanding into Hampton Roads & NOVA. 

To be honest, carrying my June Jar around is one of the ONLY ways that I stay hydrated throughout the day. I'm always pretty aware of staying hydrated, especially after working in the outdoor event industry for going on 5 years. But after reading THIS ARTICLE, I have been especially motivated to keep the water flowing. For whatever reason, I find that I absentmindedly drink nonstop if there's a straw in front of me. It's totally great! Each June Jar is 24 oz., which means I need to drink AT LEAST 4 jars a day, although I shoot for about 6. In summary, they're super affordable, from a local shop & are a major help in the hydration department. What is there not to love?
AND WE WANT TO SHARE THAT LOVE! One lucky reader will win a June Jar, plus 3 straws to commemorate Thanksgiving week around these parts. (Can you believe it's the end of November? Because I've pretty much been writing November 8th as the date for the past two weeks. However, I've also been adding 2014 as the year, sooo... I'm just a mess.) Entry details below!
TO BE ELIGIBLE: "Like" Sitting in Our Tree & June Jars on Facebook! (This is important, so we can contact you if you win!)
TO ENTER: Leave a comment on this entry by Saturday, November 30th (appropriately, Small Business Saturday!) telling us what you are thankful for this year. Winner will be selected at random from eligible entries!
WHAT YOU'RE WINNING: One 24 oz. June Jar + your choice of three (3) straw colors.

Winner will be announced at 9:00 p.m. EST, Sunday, December 1st, via the Sitting in Our Tree Facebook page.

Bonne chance, everyone!

  2. I'm thankful for one year of living in our newly built home . . . especially when this cold weather hits . . . and I remember the drafty old trailer we used to call home. :) I'm also grateful to have met JUNE JARS at the Perennial Favorites Barn Sale in September, but since I gave that purchase away, I reeeaaallly need a June Jar for myself!!

  9. Thankful for YOU, sweet Kelsey.

    I recognize that sounds entirely cheesy and will not improve my chances of winning...or WILL it? ;) But, it's true. xoxo

  12. I am thankful for friends & family that I can facetime/skype/google chat with during the holidays. (Speaking of which... we should try to plan a face-to-face date sometime soon!!!!) I am also thankful for the knowledge that God is in control of my every day even when I feel lost & foreign in this crowded city. (PS. I have a june jar already and loved using it in the states for my iced coffee -- so if I win, this one's going to my mama.)

  17. Just curious... why are you trying to drink 144oz of water a day? Even 96 is a bit much! A good bench mark is half your weight (in lbs), and have that many oz.

    1. I seem to dehydrate easily, & I've found that I feel my best when I'm drinking water constantly throughout the day - It's just simply what works for me :)
