Imani Collective has you covered! #Review

Let me start this post by saying I am not good when it comes to measurements and things like that.  I know who I am and that will never change.  There are just things I do and don't do, and that is one of them. When I hang pictures, I just kind of eye it and hope for the best, my mom on the other hand gets out tape measures and levels and all sorts of things... But anyways, I have been known to order things and when they come in I have been a bit shocked at what I actually got. Oh well, it is just a surprise... 
That being said, let me tell you about my latest review.  
I was given the chance to review product from The Imani Collective... Keep reading...

Okay, so my kiddos mean the world to me. We have things we say each day that is kind of our "go to" and I love it. I am all about traditions and making memories with them.  They are punished when they do wrong, but I think positive words are a BIG DEAL too.  I send them notes in their lunches *Yes, even the 13 year old...  He might read it, he might trash it.. but I send a positive message each day.  
I have always told them they can do pretty much anything they set their mind to and as long as they put forth the effort, I will be right there cheering them on and supporting them all the way!   

I could go on and on about them for days, but this post is about The Imani Collective... 
So, I was given the opportunity to review and let me tell you, I LOVE it all.  It is super cute and trendy and I would own it all if I could.  I chose the Girl, You are a World Changer sign...  Now, I LOVED IT as soon as I opened it... but- I WISH IT WAS BIGGER.  Don't get me wrong, the description CLEARLY says it is 7 in x 7.5 inches... remember, I don't do measurements... but I wanted it HUGE to hang on the wall.  (Not like she has wall space with everything else she has going on in her room... but still... I can want!)  It was actually perfect for her door.  She has a hook on her door that we ended up hanging it on and let me tell you, I surprised her with it, so when she came home from school and went to her room, it was the first thing she saw and she loved it too. Maybe it was how cute it was, maybe it was because it was a gift... but I am pretty sure the reassurance of the message of the fact she can change the world is now proudly displayed on her door.. well, it helps!  

The message behind Imani Collective is a good one.. EMPOWERMENT! Head on over to their site and see what all you might need to go ahead and buy now.  The prices are affordable, with the boutique look minus the boutique prices!  That is what I am talking about!!!!  (The holidays are coming, buy a few thing and make a difference at home and with the women producing them!)  

FROM THEIR SITE: 

it started with sixteen women

Sixteen women looking for a better way to provide for their families. Sixteen women who believed they were worth more than the saturated fruit selling street markets. Sixteen women intrigued enough by Jenny’s vision to stick by her side and grow together.

Imani Collective started in a small village outside of Mombasa, Kenya. Our founder, Jenny Nuccio, traveled there looking to help fund education projects for kids. As she got to know the families she realized that the children who were struggling the most came from single income homes where their mother’s did not have many job opportunities and often sold fruit for mere pennies a day. Jenny fell in love with the people and decided to move to Kenya full time to learn from and invest in the community. Through broken English and Swahili, she and the sixteen women awkwardly laughed their way into deep friendship and mutual partnership. They taught her how to cook over an open fire, how to wash her clothes, and of course, how to carry her water like a local. In return, Jenny taught them how to sew. Through creating this collective, she realized they were not just better together, they are their best together.
