I received product from Bittersweet By Design for this review. All opinions are my own. One of my new favorite clothing boutiques is Bittersweet By Design. I am fond of the company because they offer eco-friendly clothing and accessories. What is better than being fashionable while you help make the world a better place? I recently reviewed the Button Sleeve Tee and wood Stones Throw Necklace from Bittersweet By Design. They quickly became go-to pieces in my fall wardrobe. For this review, Read more [...]

I received products from Tusk for this review. All opinions are my own. My husband has a gross wallet. It is old, dirty, worn and full of stuff. He has had this wallet for as long as I can remember and we have been together for 14 years. He doesn’t just use his wallet for currency, ID and credit cards like most people. His is more of a mobile filing cabinet; with scratch paper notes, receipts, business cards, currency, ID and credit cards. I wanted to surprise him with a new leather wallet Read more [...]

I received product from The Silver Loft for this review. All opinions are my own. Although I wear a lot of necklaces, only a couple of them have a special meaning to me. Today I want to share with you my newest treasured necklace; it came from The Silver Loft. The Silver Loft is owned and operated by Leisa Waldron. Leisa is an artist. She has been creating art for at least the last 20 years. She enjoys a variety of arts including making jewelry. In 2007, Leisa opened The Silver Loft Read more [...]

I received products from Village Candle for this review. All opinions are my own. I love scented candles! If I am at home, there is a good chance I have a candle burning and/or my wax melt warmer turned on. If my home doesn’t smell good to me, it puts me in a bad mood. When guests come over, I want them to walk into my home and have it smell comforting, inviting and pleasing. I recently had the opportunity to review a few items from Village Candle.  They offer a variety of candle products Read more [...]

I received products from Statement Boutique for this review. All opinions are my own. I have become a bit of a statement necklace aficionado. I just love them. I feel like I can completely change the looks of my outfits with simply adding a statement necklace. I love the colors, textures and sparkle they add. I also appreciate that statement necklace can help me take an outfit from casual to dressy and a daytime look to a more sophisticated nighttime look. I recently discovered a fun Read more [...]

I received products from the Lovely Candy Co. for this review. All opinions are my own. Every year, our family members find sweet treats in the bottom of our Christmas stockings. Usually I just grab some foil wrapped chocolates from the bulk bins and our local grocery store. They are inexpensive and in my opinion don’t taste very good. My husband and daughters seem to enjoy them so I always give them mine. This year, I wanted to find a better treat for our stockings…something we could Read more [...]

I received products from Lucky Ginger Studio for this review. All opinions are my own. I have a really hard time shopping for my Mother-In-Law. Our interests are so very different that it is a challenge for me to imagine what she would like.   Because of this difference, when the holidays roll around I start shopping for her first. This Christmas, I began my mission thinking about her passions and how I could combine them into a special gift. She is an artist. She enjoys shopping at small Read more [...]

I received product from Humble Chic for this review. All opinions are my own. This week, it has been frosty cold in Oregon. I have been wearing lots of layered clothing to stay warm. One of my new favorite cold weather accessories are scarves. They are trendy, versatile and come in many different styles and designs. I recently had the opportunity to review a new scarf from Humble Chic. Humble Chic offers trendy women’s clothing, fashion jewelry, belts, handbags, wallets, scarves, resort Read more [...]

I received product from MistoBox for this review. All opinions are my own. Just about everyone I know enjoys a good cup of coffee. Most of the coffee drinking men in our family, like their coffee strong and black. Whereas the women in our family, prefer their coffee brewed medium to strong in strength and enhanced with “foo foo” (as my mom calls them) flavored coffee creamers. One thing we all agree on is that it is nice to try different coffees blends every now and then. That’s where Read more [...]

I received products from Walter Foster for this review. All opinions are my own. Savannah, my almost 7 year old daughter, really enjoys drawing. Since a very young age, she has impressed us with her artistic abilities. Since neither my husband nor I can draw a straight line without a ruler, we encourage Savannah to practice her drawing so she can progress with her abilities. A few months ago, I found a Walter Foster kids drawing book at a garage sale. It showed step-by-step instructions Read more [...]
