Get Buttoned Up: Review and Giveaway

July 13, 2013November 18, 2009 by Bridgette

Whenever anyone asks me how I am doing, my standard answer has become “busy!” With the school year in full swing, the holidays on the horizon, and the zillion events we are trying to attend between now and the New Year, it’s about enough to make someone go nuts! Well, we have found a resource for the crazy rat race with Buttoned Up!

About Buttoned Up from the website: “Buttoned Up, Inc. was founded in 2004 by four women, three sisters and a best friend. They realized the necessity for a tool like Life.doc after experiencing significant life changes. Each of them felt the need to get their lives organized but were unable to find products that could help them control their chaos. They wanted to be liberated from the rigid organizational systems that they bought annually and stopped using after just a few weeks. After several years of trial, error, effort and research, they started Buttoned Up whose mission is to give women the tools they need to live an organized life not a life of organization.”

Buttoned up sells organizational products and kindly sent me two of their wonderful organizational tools to check out. First, I got the Collison Kit, which is perfect should (God forbid) I ever involved in a fender bender. The Collision Kit is small enough to stick in a glove compartment, and holds a disposable camera, pen, and clipboard with pre-printed forms to remind you to get all the details, including information from the other driver(s) and witnesses. There is even an envelope for your insurance card and registration! This is a GREAT stocking stuffer for a new driver or child going off to college. I love gifts that are thoughtful and this is definitely one of them…..a much better idea than socks or fruitcake!

The second item Buttoned up sent me is the Birthday Book , which is a great way to store all the important birthdays I need to remember. The Birthday book includes a list of important dates to remember month by month as well as a list of traditional gifts for anniversaries and gemstones that correspond to each month. This would be a perfect little gift for my Dad, who literally carries around a business card in his wallet with a list of the family birthdays on it, as well as his own….no lie. Does Buttoned up sell a memory card for Dad’s brain? Anyway……

The Buttoned Up website is awesome, easy to read, and chock full of tips to keep yourself on track. The store carries a lot more than just the two products I received, and they are all offered for a very reasonable price. For just a few bucks you can keep everyone organized this year! The website offers countless tips for gift ideas, de-cluttering, keeping your finances on track, and more!
