Queen Bee Market Contest

We’re super excited about The Queen Bee Market at SNAP! and after some thought, we have decided to open up our Friday night opening party to the public free of charge.

It just seemed like a great opportunity to meet up with some of our friends who maybe aren’t as concentrated on blogging!

The Queen Bee Market is currently hosting a contest to help spread the word. Head on over and learn all about it…You could earn a great start to your Queen Bee shopping or another fab prize!
