Scented Shoe Laces Review

When kids start wearing tie shoes, they sometimes complaint hey aren't as fun as velcro shoes. Most kids shoes are designed on the sides and have boring white or black laces. I was thrilled to see something fun for my kids. Not only are they colorful and fun but they smell good to. Scented Shoelaces. They offer some adorable designs, as well as some very interesting ones.  I think my favorite ones are 

Chocolate Sweets

Although Chocolate shoelaces...  it could be bad, every time you put on your shoes you crave chocolate that could throw a diet right out the window.

These are awesome, bright colors and they smell like real fortune cookies.   yummy

How cute are these? I love them I know my daughters would to.

Gum anyone?

These would make a great stocking stuffers this holiday season. These are only a couple designs that are offered. Check Out Scented Shoelaces today.

Buy It:

Each Pair is $5.00 and although that is more then I would normally pay for shoe laces even I have a pair of these in my shoes.

Hearthsong Silly Soft Seating Review and Giveaway

Since its beginning in 1983, HearthSong has been committed to helping parents follow their instincts to provide their children with age-appropriate, wholesome, quality playthings. That's because at HearthSong, we believe childhood is a vital chapter in life-a special time when children can be occupied with the joy of being children. And, equally importantly, a time when children need to experience as much creative, imaginative play as possible because kids experience so many of life's first lessons through play. 

The first HearthSong catalog was printed in black and white, with pencil drawings of carefully selected toys and books and mailed from the home of founder Barbara Kane by her family. The name HearthSong was chosen to reflect core family values - the Hearth, a traditional symbol for the center of the home, and Song, a symbol of family spirit and of a special playfulness that parents and children enjoy together. 

Over the next 25 years, HearthSong evolved into a nationally known and respected source for quality children's toys, games and crafts. Parents who found unique toys for their children decades ago tell us they're now thrilled to be finding the same kinds of educational, entertaining toys to give to their children's children. 

Our selection of products has grown and expanded too. But we can still guarantee that each item is carefully selected for its quality, safety, and relevance to your child's development - and we are steadfast in our commitment to provide you with Toys You'll Feel Good About Giving®.

Ever since I had my son in March of 09 my hair and scalp has never recovered. I have the worst dandruff ever, and it will get better if I buy the $8.00 a bottle  shampoo full of chemicals, I hate putting them on my hair. I was thrilled to learn  Bioken made a product that could help me,and was natural. 

Anti-Dandruff Shampoo

Bioken Enfanti Anti-Dandruff Shampoo was also created not only to help ease the flaking and itching  associated with dandruff but also to help ease symptoms of psoriasis.

I do love that this shampoo offers a natural solution to my problem., I have always hated to but all the chemicals into my hair, not to mention  that not many of the normal shampoos have a pleasant scent to them. Who wants to have their hair smelling like chemicals? Not I... So the last few weeks using Enfanti Anti-Dandruff Shampoo I have noticed a change in my hair for the better, It's soft, manageable and flake free. 







Enfanti Antiruff toner is defiantly something I have never tried anything like before. I love the ease of use, just apply a few sprays to your head after shampooing and massage for a few minutes, and your done. For me though, it caused my scalp to be very itchy, worse then normal so I discontinued use after a couple weeks. I do believe it was a reaction to one or more of the ingredients.

Budget Gadgets Review

Budget Gadgets offers products of almost every sort. I got to try out 2 products from the website.

First was a set of Dolphin salt and pepper shakers, they looked like they would be adorable, and when they arrived I washed them and was very eager to try them... the salt shaker is white and the has holes where the eyes would be to dispense the salt. I do find the salt comes out a little faster then I would like. The pepper shaker offers 3 holes, two for the eyes and one where the blow hole would be. I do find this allows for the perfect amount of pepper. 

My kids haven't as of yet tested the breakbabilty yet, but they are  not claimed to be unbreakable or anything. 

The other item I was sent would be the Gyro Bowl I have seen the commercial at least a dozen times. I thought it would be perfect for my son, after all Mr.Z is two and can make a huge mess, so I though a mess free bowl would be great... Although I have not had the luck I thought I would. The bowl has allowed Mr.Z to spill all over the room because unless you move super slow. to me sadly it was a disappointment.

Budget Gadgets  does offer these products at a very low price, and I do believe that is has nothing to do with the company , these are just my experiences and yours may very well differ.

Weather you dress up often or once in a while a nice tie is always nice to have. Ties-Necktie carries a wide variety of colors, and designers. I got a chance to see for myself the quality and selection they offer. I received 3 of their ties, and I would say they are of great quality.

Each Tie is sophisticated looking, and will defiantly last. Each Tie is made of silk, and look very nice when paired with the right shirt.The nice thing about Ties-Necktie sells designers such as

ShaToBu Review and Giveaway.

Mayfair Tech Inc. ("Mayfair"), a Canadian corporation established specifically to launch ShaToBu™, is an affiliate of Doris Hosiery Mills. Mayfair was created to bring to life Dr. Denise Perron's vision of shapewear with built-in resistance training to help women fit exercise effortlessly into their day. This vision became a reality with the manufacturing expertise of Doris Hosiery Mills. Combining talents, a revolutionary new technology was born: ShaToBu - The Workout You Wear™

To ensure the success of ShaToBu, Mayfair invested heavily in the necessary research to not only meet and exceed women's expectations in wearing shapers in terms of comfort and style, but to also provide scientific proof to confirm claims of muscle toning and caloric burn. Mayfair's investment in ShaToBu included the following:

• The Science - independent scientific studies conducted at both U.S. and Canadian Universities substantiate the performance of the product, including the claims for shaping, toning and calorie burn.
• Branding - focus groups were professionally hypnotized in order to learn consumers' true objections to shaping products. The results of those studies enabled Mayfair to construct a shaper overcoming those objections.
• Manufacturing - Over the course of nearly three years of testing and trials on state-of-the-art manufacturing equipment,ShaToBu was perfected to not only provide optimal shaping, toning and calorie burning benefits, but was also a shaper comfortable enough to wear all day every day.

My lip Stuff Giveaway

My Lip Stuff began many years ago, back in 1999 as a hobby. My name is Brea, I'm the creator of My Lip Stuff (feel free to call me the lip balm goddess, lippy lord, or your royal Breaness works too). I decided to make my own lip balms after watching an episode of Martha Stewart about hand made lotions and toiletries. Being a Vegan, I knew 'natural' was the product for me, so I began to research natural butters and oils to find the perfect ingredients for the perfect lip balm. After many many many many many (did I say many?) recipes, I finally came up with a recipe that I fell in love with and "My Lip Stuff" was born. It started with just personal use (a lip balm addict from birth with a nasty tube a week (at least) habit), and eventually moved onto Birthday and Christmas gifts. By 2000, friends and family were loving "My Lip Stuff" and it was turning into a mini word of mouth business. 
In 2001, I was in the beginning of a very difficult 'bed rest only' pregnancy and was unable to work (I was formerly a foreign and english languages teacher). As I lay there, I thought about developing My Lip Stuff into more than just a small business with only lip products, and into a full fledged business with many different bath and body products. In June of 2001, the unexpected happened, and I became VERY ill. The doctors had no choice but to deliver the baby by emergency c-section. So after only 5 months of pregnancy, I gave birth to a 1 pound 1 ounce premature little boy. 4 long months in the hospital by my sons side gave me A LOT of time to develop My Lip Stuff into My Lip Stuff & Other Stuff! I quickly realized that life would never be the same, and that working a "normal" 9-5 job like most people do, would be impossible for this single parent with a special needs child. My Lip Stuff needed to be developed into a fully functional business and online store to support myself and my disabled child, so the My Lip Stuff & Other Stuff online store was offically open for business!
Fast forward another 8+ years and I am still a single parent, working around the clock (seriously, who needs sleep!) to bring you My Lip Stuff and Other Stuff. I also find the time to homeschool my Autistic/special needs child who is now 8 years old (and who is also addicted to My Lip Stuff!). My Lip Stuff continues to be a thriving online store, with a 1000 sq ft "factory" where the magic happens! Our mission is still the same: to create products that are skin, earth, and animal friendly. We stuck to our roots and still handmake all our products in very small batches to ensure freshness. The end result is plain and simple- My Lip Stuff is serious lip care with a fun flair, for the kid (albeit the responsible kid) in all of us.
