Today, March 11th, we are Giving Away... (PRIZES CLAIMED)


A Chic Apron and Swim Diaper Cover from Olive Jane Designs

If you’re going to be working hard in the kitchen, why not look cute doing it? Olive Jane Designs is here to help with their very hip aprons. The talented seamstress behind Olive Jane Designs loves her work and it shows in the quality of her products.


My daughter owns this adorable and high-quality skirt from Olive Jane Designs. Each time my daughter wears it I can’t quit looking at her throughout the day and thinking, “That is one of the cutest skirts I have ever seen on her!” I love it!

And today you have the opportunity to win some of Olive Jane Designs' products. The first is a darling apron:


It is made from 100% pre-shrunk cotton. It is very flattering, functional, and even sexy! So in other words, watch out ladies, your man will want more than dinner when he comes through the door and sees you in one of Olive Jane Designs' aprons.

The second product you can enter to win today is a swim diaper cover:


Olive Jane Designs' swim diaper covers are worn OVER a regular swim diaper. Due to an outbreak of cryptosporidium last year, almost all of the public swimming pools in our area make children ages three and under wear a swim diaper PLUS another plastic diaper over the top. At our local pool plastic white swim diaper cover-ups are $8.00. They’re just plastic, and boring. So why not purchase a cute diaper cover-up? You can even have your child wear a rash guard on his or her upper body and one of Olive Jane Designs' swim diaper covers over the swim diaper on his or her lower body. WA-LA: you have double diapered your child AND you have a swimsuit all in one.

ATTENTION: Olive Jane Designs is giving FREE SHIPPING (Yay!) to the readers of Give Away Today. In the notes upon check out you need to enter the code “giveawaytoday” and then Olive Jane Designs will refund the shipping through Paypal—it’s the only way that the Etsy/Paypal combo will allow Olive Jane Designs to do it. But hey, we’ll take free shipping any way we can get it, right ladies (and gents).

Each person can enter to win the stylish apron or swim diaper cover from Olive Jane Designs up to THREE times today.

For one entry leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry visit Olive Jane Designs’ website here. Look at all of their darling products and then come back to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and one of Olive Jane Designs’ products that you wish you owned.
Example: Jane Doe: Blue Harlequin Waterproof Diaper Cover

For a third entry I thought it would be fun to learn about our reader’s most embarrassing moments. In a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and one of your most embarrassing moments (your embarassing moment does not have to be pool or swimming-related).
Example: Jane Doe: When I was in eighth grade my dad took me and my best friend swimming with a youth group of about twenty boys (we were the only girls who got to go). That morning I snuck into my sister’s room and grabbed one of her swimsuits to wear. My friend and I had a great time swimming. Afterwards we jumped out of the pool and began talking (and flirting) with the boys. My friend quickly suggested we go to the dressing room. As we were walking away my friend told me to look down. When wet, the swimming suit had become completely see-through!! My sister had discovered this too and wore it only when laying out. This was a hard way to learn that I shouldn’t wear my sister’s clothes without asking.

The winner of the great products from Olive Jane Designs will be announced tomorrow, March 12th. Please visit us then to see if you are one of our winners and to check out the new giveaway for the day. Thanks!

Amanda Nokleby: Oh, there are so many embarrassing moments to choose from...Once, when I was a teenager, I was doing a musical, and while I was dancing and singing on stage (and right at the very front of the stage, mind you), I totally slipped and fell straight on my bum. No sweat, I thought. Just get right back up and keeping going...and then, as I was trying to gracefully get back up, I fell down again...When I got to the "circle" formed without me on stage, my back to the audience now, I noticed everyone was trying their best to hold back laughter. The song was nearing it's end (thank goodness), and once we all ran off stage, we laughed for a good 10 minutes. Good times.

andrea park - I was in the hallway at church and didn't realize that the top two buttons on my v-neck blouse had somehow come undone. I was so happy for my lacy slip because it mostly covered my bra. There was a guy across the hallway who looked red and embarrassed, I think he saw my chest. (We were both in college.)

Next thing I know my son dumps the buket of water on me and needless to say my top reveled more then it should. What's worse...of corse there was a guy I use to date back in High School at the same pool. Figures!

katie shannon; when I was in third grade i wanted my hair cut short like my mom's (you should know what I am talking about if your mom had lds mom hair in the 90's) so my dad took me to great clips and they pulled out the clippers and my hair was like a inch long all over they had shaved it. I hate all my pictures around that age and everyone always thought I was a boy!

Gibbs Family said...

Megan Gibbs: My husband was going to be meeting with the Kirby Vacuum sales guys and I had a small window before they were coming to jump in the shower. So I hurried and showered and thought I was in the clear but when I opened the bathroom door, with a towel loosely wrapped around myself...(very loosely), I was shocked and mortified that they were standing right there. I quickly shut the door and died a million deaths in the bathroom until they left. So very embarrassing!!

Jessica Ballard: A week after I got my driver's license I rear-ended a pickup truck because I wasn't paying attention to the road (a 16 yr old talking to her friends instead of watching the road- weird). It scrunched up my hood but didn't do any other damage. Since it was still drivable, my parents made me drive the car with hood destroyed for 6 months as a reminder to pay attention to the road. My friends never tired of making fun of me for it!

one time I had my girlfriends sleep over we were about 15, and we decided to sneak out, and the back door was far away from my parents room. Well we left, and we got caught we saw them out looking for us even. Needless to say when we came home the lights flipped on.. caught.. Whoops.

Sara Grant: Oh I've had many embarrassing moments. One happened to be on a date. I was driving and I decided to pull forward from our parking space rather than back up. Unfortunately I didn't realize there was a concrete divider thingy in place, so I drove over it and got the car stuck. I felt like an idiot. I think the guy did too because we didn't date much longer after that.

this is a total true story.

Jocelyn Harris: I have many embarrasing moments, but recently I used the restroom at the local Nordstrom and went from the bathroom clear over to the Nordstrom Cafe line with my skirt tucked into my underwear! A lady pulled it out for me and I just had to laugh, if this was years ago, I would have bawled my eyes out and been forever tramautized. An advantage of getting older I guess. And no, I did not have cutsie sexy underwaer on and a toned tush, I am LDS and wear garments, and I have had children so nuff said... oh well right!?

Ciera Stout: When I was little, we took a vacation over Easter to Moab. During a drive, we saw a big red sand hill. There were a bunch of people climbing up the hill, so my parents stopped and let us play as well. I got about 1/3 of the way up the hill when my mom called my name. I ran down the hill and felt like I was walking on the moon. When I got done talking to my mom, I climbed ALL the way up the hill. I stood at the top and looked down the 100+ yard STEEP hill, and started running as fast as I could. At first it was fun, but soon my legs couldn't keep up with my body. My brother was about 1/2 way down the hill, I aimed for him, thinking that he would stop me. Instead, he moved out of the way not wanting to get in trouble if I got hurt! Soon enough, I fell head over heels down the rest of the hill. Everyone thought I had broken my neck, but when they asked me what hur, all I could say was "My big toe!"

While we were being silly, the only boy in the group thought it would be funny to steal our swimsuits and hide them outside the pool area. Needless to say, we were devastated.

Misty Kiley: I was at the DMV and I had to go the bathroom. So I looked for the restrooms and totally thought I was going into the girls bathroom. In my hurry to relieve myself, I must have missed the urinals and went straight to the stall. As I was peeing, I heard feet entering that sounded like a mans work shoes... and two seconds later I saw the feet next to me (yes they were man shoes) and then I heard the man peeing! I turned SO RED!!! My heart pounded and I thought how am I going to get out of here. Well, I waited for him to leave...and then I bolted!!! To my fortune, nobody seemed to notice. I always take a second look before entering a public restroom.

Lyanna Anderson: When I was in middle school, I went to the mall one day with my mom. We were doing our bi-monthly outing, cinnabons, lemonade, and sale shopping. So, to the embarassing part: I got some cinnabon on my shirt. My mom has this obsession with the product "shout". So, when she told me I got cinnamon on my shirt, my response was "that's ok, you can just shout it out later". She proceeds to lean towards me and scream at my stain saying "GET OUT!! JUST GET OUT!!" I was mortified!!! She then sat up straight, as if nothing ever happened saying "there, I shouted it out for you..." Thanks mom...

Jessica Mount: I'm not sure if this is embarrassing or just sad, haha. I was just learning to swim and I was swimming back and forth between my two older cousins. They would take a step or two back each pass so I could get used to swimming further and further. I guess I had just eaten animal crackers or something because I spit some up and my cousin let go of me becuase she thought it was gross. I proceeded to pretty much drown (Thanks, cuz.) and my dad had to jump in fully clothed and help me out. Needless to say, my cousin spent the rest of the day sitting out of the pool for nearly drowning me due to a little chewed up animal cracker.

One was a beautiful little lullaby and after we heard it, I said "Well, the songs okay, but I really am not too fond of the singer. . ." well, it was her, and so when I finally realized, I profusely apologized over and over. I still feel bad about it.
