I received products from Husky Liners for this review. All opinions are my own. My husband has a dirty job.  There are days when he comes home covered in dirt and/or diesel grease. And because we live in Oregon, there are many days he comes home muddy and wet. His truck is a typical work-truck. The inside has a layer of dust on it. He has floor mats but they don’t cover much space and aren’t water proof so the mess soaks through them and stains the carpeting. I thought it would be nice Read more [...]

I received products from Educational Insights for this review. All opinions are my own. Like most kids, my kids learn best through play. If they are having fun doing something, they are going to be much more open to learning a lesson or skill.  So when I find a company with fun AND educational products, I become a fan quickly. I am fanatic about Educational Insights and would like to share a few of their products with you. First, let me tell you about Educational Insights. Their products Read more [...]

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 love cute shoes. However, I just cannot wear heals. They're too uncomfortable, make my toes go numb, and just aren't good for our feet. So, whenever I want to wear nice, cute shoes, I wear flats. They're just as pretty, stylish, and fancy, without all the pain. Corso Como has a line of ballet flats, Ballasox. They're comfortable, quality, pretty shoes that come in lots of different colors, patterns and material. I was very excited to be able to review some shoes from Corso Como's Ballasox line. I 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 sometimes find it difficult to find a really great gift idea for infants.  All the clothes start to look the same at the big box stores and I enjoy finding unique gifts.  I came across a great company called Stephan Baby that packs a punch with their products and was just what I was looking for.  They carry a wide array of items from clothing and blankets to headbands, socks, bibs, dolls, room accessories, keepsakes, diaper bags, growth charts, gift sets, and more.  I'm thrilled to partner Read more [...]

*I was provided with the books reviewed in this post in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own. I try to give gifts as books a lot, especially for children. I think that giving books as gifts sends children the message that books ARE gifts, and I like knowing that my gift might encourage them to read a book that they wouldn't have picked up otherwise. As an adult, I enjoy getting books as gifts too because it lets me discover books that I hadn't heard of. I was sent an assortment of Read more [...]
