Affiliates:

Oh Whimsical Me is a blog that uses affiliate links on occasion. An affiliate link is a link, that if clicked through, can earn me a small commission (if you purchase something from that site). It is a very small commission and one that I hope will eventually be enough (from affiliate links and advertising on OWM) to purchase a domain name and improve the content I post. I will always disclose when an affiliate link is used in a post, by stating so in a disclaimer at the end of the post. I am never paid for link insertion. Affiliate links do not affect my writing, opinions, or any of the content on Oh Whimsical Me. I only promote products that I believe in and can truly support.
