Oh snap. Is it Monday already? We thought we'd start the week off with some fun. A Selfie Contest!

Need a selfie stick? You’re in luck! Simply head to our contest page on Facebook to post your best individual selfie in the comments section for a chance to win a selfie stick! The one with the most votes (FB Likes) wins. Winner will be announced next Monday, June 15, 2015.

Here are some tips for taking a great selfie. • Pay close attention to your background before photographing. • Know your good side or bad angles. If you cannot find the right pose, just opt for your sweetest smile! • Look for good light. • Be confident. We’re our worst critics. You’re more beautiful than you know. • Hold your phone slightly above your head. • If you wear glasses tilt your head down slightly, it helps minimize the glare. • Please stay out of the bathroom.

…of course, the more creative the better! Lets see those selfies!!! Good luck!

kiss & tell

Tis the season of Love. Why not tell us a little bit about your first kiss?

We’ll choose our favorite story Wednesday morning and make someone’s Valentine’s Day just a little sweeter by sending a little package of love from Silverbox.  Simply respond below, or on our Facebook Page.

My first kiss... Seth P., 5th grade, Spin the Bottle at his Birthday Party. I brought him the Rosanna, Toto 45 record as a gift. Oh, the things we remember when there's emotion intertwined to the moment.

an easter scavenger hunt for the big kids

Are your kiddos getting a little too old for an egg hunt?Here's an easy idea to step it up a little. A photo scavenger hunt.

1. Plan a scavenger hunt route. (We planned ours for outside, but inside the house works just fine too.) 2. Take zoomed-in photos of the area you'd like to have the egg hunt. 3. Print out photos. (We used 4x6" photo prints). 4. Appropriately place your pictures, so the photo clue directs you to the next location. (We placed our clues in fun envelopes). 5. Of course your final destination should have a basket full of goodies! 6. Have fun and Enjoy!

Happy Easter from Silverbox!
