Review - Kushyfoot Open-Toe Flats to Go

2012-05-26T17:30:00.002-04:00

Open-Toe Flats-to-go Soft, flexible faux leather Flats-to-go are an instant and elegant solution to a perennial need for the relief of sore heels, blisters and scrunched up toes. They're still lightweight and portable - perfect for the desk drawer, car or purse - but now the toes are open. The 3-dimensional wavy sole cushions and massages the foot as the wearer walks-perfect for indoor and smooth outdoor surfaces. They slip neatly and easily into their owner's purse, folded into a cute clear plastic carrier with its own little handles.

I absolutely love Kushyfoot products and when I heard that a pair of their new flats to go were on the way, I was really looking forward to trying them out.

For my review, I was sent their Open-Toe Flats-to-go. These are designed to provide relief from heels, and they can also be used after a mani pedi. They feature an elastic back and wavy soles (to massage feet). These also come with their own carrying case which allows you to just simply slip them neatly into your purse.

So far I've used them in the backyard, at the beach, and in the car. They are super comfortable and look great too! I didn't have any issues with the sizing. They fit true to size and they aren't too tight or too loose.

One thing to keep note of is these aren't really meant for heavy everyday use, so I wouldn't recommend them being used that way, but for occasional light use they are absolutely perfect!

Open-Toe Flats-to-go are available in sizes 5-10 and come in the color black.

Review - Marika Slimming Capri

2012-05-10T14:07:00.001-04:00

Exceptionally capable, sensibly fashionable, resoundingly feminine
Marika is the company’s namesake brand focusing mainly on multi-sport performance active wear. By combining fitness basics, technical fabrications, and functional fashion pieces with lifestyle elements, the Marika brand has remained popular for over 25 years.

For my review, I was sent the Marika Slimming Capri Legging. These leggings have built in feature tummy control that contains inner PowerMesh on the side panel and inner waist band, creating the ultimate compression, core support and slimming. Contoured curved seams at the back help contribute to a more flattering figure, and breathable gusset lining ensures that the material stays dry before, during and after a workout.. They are available in sizes small to extra large and retail for $60.

Legging with Tummy Control The Miracles line is all about flattering fashion. It utilizes a slimming ELASTA-TIGHT Dry-Wik fabric and incorporates patent approved and patent pending designs and technologies, which ultimately provide an enviable shape to a women’s body before she even hits the gym. Marika tanks, bras and pants are all made of its exclusive ELASTA-TIGHT fabric, which provides a slimming two-way stretch, being specifically designed to lend support and uplift specific parts of the body, while remaining flexible enough to work out in. The DryWik technology wicks away moisture, making for an enjoyable workout.

These Capri are very comfortable, breathable, well made, flattering, fit well, and haven’t faded in the was yet. They conform to your figure and sit up high enough on your waist area so when you bend over your bottom doesn’t show. I also find that they do a great job at staying up when walking, running, bending etc, so I find that I’m not constantly pulling them up which is great.

Marika Slimming Capri Legging will definitely give you the support and control that you need while giving your body a slimming effect.

It is not too heavy and is just enough to tame the flyway ends. Just be careful not to apply too much or else your hair will look greasy.

For my review, I was sent a pair of their FAGA Full Length Bamboo Leggings. These leggings are high waisted which minimizes any muffin-top, there’s no camel-toe, and they are also banded at the bottom to ensure for less shifting.

These leggings are made from 51% Bamboo, 21% Cotton, 20% Nylon, 8% Spandex and are available in the sizes S/M and M/L.

I usually wear a size M, and I got these in the size M/L. They fit me perfectly and they are so comfortable! They do not fall as leggings sometimes do which is a huge plus for me.

These are also made very well. I’ve worn and washed these leggings many times and they are still in great shape and not faded. They also show no signs of shrinkage. To me they seem to hold up well enough, so I think they'll last a while

These leggings are a bit thicker than the other pair of leggings I own. They are thick enough but not too thick, and they are also not particularly transparent like other leggings can be.

I've tried many different brands of leggings & searched high in low for the” perfect leggings” and these honestly fit the bill. There my favorite pair out of all the leggings I own, and I have a lot so that’s saying something!

Overall the FAGA Full Length Bamboo Leggings are a great quality pair of leggings. Pair them up with basically any top & your good to go. I love these so much and only wish that there were more colors! Highly, highly, highly recommend these leggings .

Think Outside the Basket with Hasbro!

2012-03-25T19:22:00.004-04:00

Can you believe that April is almost here? Oh man, these months are going by super fast! Easter is coming up very soon and Hasbro has some great gift giving ideas.

Like many kids, my kids love play dough. Hasbro has got some great Easter themed Play-Doh items that are just perfect for kids.

PLAY-DOH Character 2 packs come with a bunny & chick filled with play dough. You can make play dough stamps with them by using their feet. Once kids are done playing with them they can just place the Play-Doh inside the bunny & chick for easy storage. These were a huge hit with my kids! They had loads of fun making play dough stamps and they also had lots of fun pretend playing with the bunny and chick.

The PLAY-DOH Box of Eggs come in a cute box of 10 and the PLAY-DOH pack of Eggs comes with 4. These Play-Doh filled eggs would be perfect for Easter egg hunts. My kids really enjoyed taking turns pretending that they were the Easter bunny & hid them around the house taking turns searching for them.

Hasbro PLAY-DOH Character 2 packs, PLAY-DOH Box of Eggs and PLAY-DOH pack of Eggs are a great alternative and/or addition to traditional sweet Easter treats. Why not switch things up this year and include these? Kids will still have lots of fun without the sugar high. If your kids love playing with playing with Play-Doh, then they’ll really love these!

In addition to Easter themed Play-Doh toys, Hasbro also has a MR. POTATO HEADSpud Bunny. This comes with 1 pair of eyes, 1 nose, 1 mouth, 1 pair of bunny ears, 2 arms, 1 pair of pants with feet and basket of eggs. It also contains a storage compartment at the back. I think this is super cute! My kids were filled with loads of laughter while they rearranged the pieces making MR. POTATO HEAD Spud Bunny look goofy.

So, go ahead and Think Outside the Basket this Easter with these sugar-free Hasbro treats. Kids will love them!

PosterJack.ca is a Canadian company that turns your photos into works of art! You can turn them into framed photos, canvas prints, metal prints , mounted prints & much, much more! I previously never heard of them before until I was asked if I wanted to do a review. I gladly accepted and boy I’m I ever glad I did.

First off ordering from PosterJack.ca is super easy and their website is easy to navigate. They ship only to Canada and offer free shipping on orders over $150, and it’s just $8.50 for all other orders.

I was unsure about what photo I wanted to use, so since my good friend just moved into her condo I decided to get her something for her new place. She loves African inspired art, so I found a photo that I knew she was going to like and transformed it into a 14 x 18 inch frame.

PosterJack.ca shipped very promptly and my order took only 2 days to arrive. When it arrived to my door it was packaged up securely to ensure no damage which I really appreciated.

Here is how it turned out:

I was extremely satisfied with the end result and so was my friend. When I handed it over to her she was very happy and it is now hanging on her wall.

PosterJack’s prices are great as well and with their many photo options, I’m sure you’ll find something you love. So go ahead, check them out and create your piece of artwork. You won't be disappointed :D

Review - ShāToBu Shaping Tights

2012-03-17T16:04:00.002-04:00

With ShaToBu Shaping Tights, you can shape your body & burn some calories at the same time! How great is that? ShaToBu Shaping Tights shapes and smooths your tummy, hips, thighs and they contain resistance bands for muscle toning, so this is why you burn more calories during your daily activities.

Check out this video explaining the science behind it:

ShaToBu Shaping Tights are available in the sizes small, medium, large, xlarge and 2xlarg. They are also available in the colors jet black, steel and brown. For my review, I received jet black in medium.

These are fantastic! They shape wonderfully and don't roll down or bunch up. I’ve worn them several times under dresses and they felt great. I did not feel squeezed or like I was about to suffocate. They also do not show any lines underneath your clothing, so that is great as well -- you sure do not want to go out looking like your wearing shape wear underneath your clothing, nuh-uh! Not a good look.

The tights are VERY strong & durable, so you do not need to worry about them running or ripping. They also fit true to size as listed on the size chart. I highly recommend them if you want a tighter, more flattering figure.

Nature Bright SunTouch Plus Review & Giveaway

2012-03-13T22:16:00.002-04:00

I absolutely hate the winter! It’s cold out, there’s less light and I find that it affects my mood. When spring/summer come around I find that I’m happier, and when it rains I feel gloomy. This is because the weather often has a HUGE impact on the way I feel and I know that many other people feel the same way as well.

Some people, however, suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). SAD is a type of depression that usually occurs during the fall and winter months. Less often, seasonal affective disorder causes depression in the spring or early summer.

One of the treatments for this is light therapy and SunTouch Plus is a great device for this. I’ve been using the Sun Touch Nature Plus for several weeks now and it has helped me greatly! I find that my mood is much better, I have much more energy and my mornings are more bearable.

Whether your needs revolve around your pregnancy, your age, the challenges of your life or the weather outside your window, the sky’s the limit with SunTouch Plus. Literally: By harnessing the healing powers of the blue sky, this lamp delivers an optimized amount of blue light rated at 17,000 degrees Kelvin. It’s cool, safe, comfortable... just what the doctor ordered!

The Sun Touch Nature Plus is very portable, emits a bright light, has an ionizer, 10 000 lux, timer, and it’s easy to use. I typically use this for 30 minutes in the morning. It sits on my desk 12-16 inches away from my face while I’m browsing net.

I will admit that I was a bit skeptical at first on how well the SunTouch Plus would perform and I have to say I’m pretty impressed! It does what it was made to do perfectly. I highly recommend this to anyone that needs a boost! It’s a great product and helps a lot with the winter blues.

Make your sad days happy days with Sun Touch Nature Plus :)

Be a Sexy YOU with EdenFantasys

2012-03-05T14:06:00.007-05:00

This post contains links that are for mature audiences only. If you are under 18, please do not click on the links.

I love being women! I honestly think it’s the greatest thing. We are caring, nurturing, and we love hard. Women have shaped the past and influenced the presence. We have a strong hold on the future and we have the opportunity to bring life into this world. Let’s not forget we can also achieve multiple O’s as well…hehe. The only thing I do not like about being a woman is PMS, but who really does? Apart for that, being a woman is great!

I personally love getting manicures and pedicures, massages, facials, really anything to pamper myself! I also love wearing high heels and getting dressed up.

EdenFantasys' focus for the month of March is all about being a Sexy YOU. March 8th is International Women's Day and what better way to celebrate than with EdenFantasys. In celebration of Women’s Day EdenFantasys is offering 25% off orders over $75 with coupon code WOMEN2012 and a free Eden Bullet with orders over $56. They are also offering 30% off select vibrators and 25% off beauty & massage products. How great is that?

I’m personally going to indulge on a few sexy lingerie pieces. I’ve actually had my eye on the True bliss bustier coat set with hose for some time now; I think it’s so gorgeous! I also recently fell in love with the Animalistique garter slip and thong after reading a review & seeing a photo from one of the reviewers on EdenFantasys (you can see it here if you’re interested), and I also want to get the Sweet sensations pajama set.

I’ve also fallen in love with the DONA by JO body products! I have the body polish, mist lotion and body lotion. Since EdenFantasys has recently added the body butter, I’m definitely going to pick 1 or 2 of those up as well.

So go ahead and be a Sexy YOU! Weather you’d like to get yourself some sex toys, sexy lingerie or beauty and body products EdenFantasys has it all. Feel sexy, indulge and pamper yourself! You deserve it :)

Deserving Thyme Organic Fragrance Oil Roll-Ons Review & Giveaway

2012-03-04T18:02:00.004-05:00

Deserving Thyme is a Canadian company that manufactures quality aroma therapeutic body and bathing care products. Back in December I received one of their gift sets, and I absolutely loved it. I was very intrigued when I was told that they were coming out with a line of organic perfumes and would have the opportunity to try them out and review them.

Deserving Thyme Roll On Perfumes are Alcohol free, Paraben Free, and Blended with Organic Jojoba Oil. These perfumes are available in 6 different scents that are tropical & fruity.

The six scents that are available are:

BerryBoostiful: a blend of uplifting and fruity blend of Orange and Pomegranate.

BeSweet: reminiscent of sweet Pink Sugar

CaribbeanCoconut: a blend of Coconut and Mango.

Creamsicle: a delicious blend of Orange, Mandarin and Vanilla.

Crips Apple: a blend of zesty and uplifting blend of Citrus and Apple.

HawaiianPayaya: blended with a tropical blend of Mango & Papaya.

I love the roll on application as it is very easy and mess free unlike spray bottles (no need to worry about getting any in your eyes, mouth etc). The size of the bottle itself is great as well, not humungous but it will last quite a while. The scents also seem to last for quite a while. It's not going to last for the entire day but it will easily last for a decent amount of time before you need to reapply. Thanks to its convenient size, you can easily pop them into your bag just like a lip balm and reapply whenever you feel the need to.

I love the fact that the fragrances are not overpowering or overwhelming. I'm not a fan of heavy fragrances. I also love the fact that I have control in terms of how much fragrance I put on my body. Sometimes when you use perfume sprays, you can accidentally spray too much. I also think it would be awesome if there were matching body washes and body lotions to compliment each scent, they really smell wonderful and it would be nice to layer them.

Twenty dollars may seem pretty expensive to spend on a 10ml bottle of fragrance, but let me tell you: it's worth it, because it's an organic product. You're getting all the benefits of department store perfume without any of the drawbacks. Why spray your precious body with chemicals that you cannot pronounce when you can use safe ingredients instead? I definitely recommend these Deserving Thyme perfume oils for anyone who wants a natural and lovely smelling fragrance.

One winner will receive their choice of 3 Organic Fragrance Oil Roll-Ons!

All products from our line are formulated to meet or exceed the demanding specifications of the finest world spas. You can trust the quality of the products from The Stratford Apothecary™. We use the finest ingredients in our complete line; essence of clove, lavender, olive oil, shea & cocoa butter, and coconut cream, among other essences impart aroma & texture to soothe every sense. You will see & feel the benefits of anti-oxidant vitamins, minerals, proteins & other natural ingredients in our products.

For my review, I choose the Pink Chrysanthemum Luxury GiftCollection. This set comes with 2 bar soaps, shower gel, body lotion, body cream, and bath salts. It also comes packaged in a gorgeous box making it perfect for gift giving.

The bar soaps have a lovely light and clean fragrance. They lather up nicely and leave my skin feeling clean. The Shower Gel produces a nice rich lather that leaves skin feeling fresh, soft and clean after showering. A little goes a long way; it lightly moisturizes in the shower and makes a luxurious bubble bath or body wash. The aroma is extremely light and subtle on your skin. You only need to dispense a small amount on pouf, lather it up with some water, and wash away. Overall the performance of the bar soaps and shower gel is great and they are very pleasant to use. They added just enough moisture to my skin, without it feeling oily or greasy after my shower.

Body Lotion has the same consistency as any other type of lotion and the body cream is a little bit thicker. They are both easy to spread and rub into the skin. They do not feel greasy and do a great job at moisturizing skin, so you do not need to worry about feeling dry halfway through the day.

The bath salts are very easy to use. All you need to do is add them into your water. The salt will then dissolve throughout the water fairly quickly. I like to do a foot soak with these and they leave my feet feeling wonderful afterwards, this is especially nice after a long day.

This beautifully packaged set is like a spa in a box. It gives you a luxury spa experience that can be a great treat and a relaxing experience to unwind after a chaotic day. Create your own spa experience at home with this lovely set from The Stratford Apothecary.

FitLips Review & Giveaway (4 Winners)

2012-02-20T00:10:00.001-05:00

If you have dry, chapped lips or simply want a lip balm that is going to provide your lips with moisture, look no further than Fitlips Lip Balms. Fitlips is a 100% natural, Canadian-made lip balm that contains no petroleum or parabens. They are available in 4 different scents ( Passion fruit, Peppermint, Vanilla & Natural) The lip balms also contain great ingredients too such as beeswax, hemp oil, mango butter, and Cupuacu butter.

The lip balms come in a metal tin that can be reused or recycled, and you can either use your finger or a brush to get the product out. It goes on silky smooth and feels really good on my lips. It’s not heavy, sticky, goopy or waxy. Once applied to lips, you do not need to constantly reapply.

The moisturizing effects of these balms are very evident from the very first use. The first time I tried them, they left my lips very moisturize and soft. My husband’s chapped lips were also transformed to smooth, soft lips and I’m happy to report that since he’s been applying Fitlips to his lips he no longer has sore, chapped lips! Woot

The aromas of these are really nice as well. My 7yr olds favorite is the Passion fruit and she wasted no time claiming that one as hers LOL. The scents of the scented variation aren’t overpowering at all, and the scents listed smell very authentic (don’t have that fake smell). The balms will also leave your lips with a nice scent for awhile after you apply.

These can be used alone, under lip stick, and you can also use them on your elbows & cuticles! It makes a wonderful base for lipstick, and it also does a great job at moisturizing elbows & cuticles.

Here is something interesting!

Fitlips lip balm will be in the swag bags given to Oscar nominees and presenters this year! This will be the 3^rd time Fitlips has been given away to the Hollywood stars.

All in all, I am very happy with the performance of these balms! Fitlips is a great lip balm and I’m pretty sure many will find it useful, especially in these drying winter months. If you want a balm that will protect, soothe, moisturize and soften you lips, I definitely recommend Fitlips.

NBW Review & Giveaway

2012-02-14T00:32:00.001-05:00

Nature Balance Wellness also known as NBW is a Canadian company owned by Mari-Claire Watkins. NBW manufactures all natural spa products like Body Butters, Body Scrubs, Facial Products, Soaps, Lip Balms, Outdoor Products, Massage Products and much more. All their products are 100% safe as they are free from Parabens, Sulfates and Petroleum.

For my review, I was sent their Marigold Magic Body Butter and Marigold Magic Body Wash. These 2 products are designed for those with sensitive skin, and it’s great for eczema, cracked and extra dry skin, burns, abrasions and pregnant bellies. They contain Sweet Orange essential oil and Calendula (Marigold) infused soya oil which heal & hydrate your skin.

Marigold Magic Body Butter

This is NBW’s most popular cream, and the reason why is because it serves as a natural alternative to hydro-cortisone for those who suffer from eczema. Its intensive moisture is also wonderfully gentle and can be used on the most sensitive skin types (and babies) Dry, cracked skin loves this cream'

Marigold Magic Body Butter has a light orange scent, so it is great for people who may be sensitive to stronger smells. It rubs in very easily, absorbs really well, and it’s not greasy or sticky. Being a body butter, the consistency is thick and I find that it’s easy to spread and rub into the skin.

A little goes along way, so the jar is going to last quite awhile. This body butter leaves my skin silky soft for the entire day! My husband has super dry hands and the Marigold Magic Body Butter restored them. The first few days of using the product on his hands we noticed that the appearance and texture of them greatly changed. My daughter suffers from eczema and the Marigold Magic Body Butter soothes, relieves and moisturizes her skin excellently. I highly, highly, highly recommend the Marigold Magic Body Butter if you have dry skin, eczema or simply want a moisturizing body butter.

NBW body butters are also available in love me lavender, beach with lime, desire, and vanilla kiss.

Ingredients

Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower Seed Oil), Soja Hispida (Non-GMO Soya Bean Oil) infused with Calendula Officinalis (Certified Organic Calendula), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba Seed Oil), De-ionized Water, Vegetable Glycerine, Natural Beeswax, Vegetable Based Emulsifying Wax, Sodium Borate, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Matricaria Recutita (Flower Extract of Chamomile), Citrus Sinensis (Essential Oil of Sweet Orange), Phenoxyethanol and Caprylyl Glycol (Optiphen 0.1% as preserve).

Marigold Magic Body Wash

This also has an orange scent to it, but unlike the body butter the scent is a little bit stronger, but it’s not at all overpowering. I find it very refreshing and it leaves skin soft and hydrated, not dry and stripped. The aroma is also extremely light and subtle on your skin afterwards. The Marigold Magic Body Wash is a very gentle body wash, so it can be used on babies & kids. Follow up with the Marigold Magic Body Butter and your entire body will feel pampered.

In addition to the Marigold Magic Body wash, NBW body washes are also available in love me lavender, beach with lime, desire, and vanilla kiss.

Ingredients

De-ionized Water, Alkyl Polyglucosides (Corn derived for lather), Cocomidopropyl Betaine (Coconut derived for lather), Sodium Cocoamphoacetate (Coconut derived for lather), Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf Juice, Vegetable Glycerine, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (Chamomile), Soja Hispida (Non-GMO Soya Bean Oil) infused with Calendula Officinalis (Certified Organic Calendula), Citrus Sinensis (Essential Oil of Sweet Orange), Phenoxyethanol and Caprylyl Glycol (Optiphen 0.1% as preserve).

I'd definitely recommend giving these products a go. Anyone can use and enjoy them, although they seem to be designed for those with dry, sensitive skin I think they'll work great on many skin types as they will provide your skin with a lot of moisture.

NBW is currently having a 20% off sale on their desire & vanilla kiss flavors. Click here to check it out :)

Yoga Paws Review & Giveaway

2012-02-10T16:44:00.002-05:00

I frequently workout with a yoga mat and I find that I tend to slip when my palms & feet get sweaty. This can be really annoying at times because I can’t hold a pose properly. Well thanks to Yoga Paws I no longer have this annoying problem!

About:

Yoga Paws LLC is a mother/daughter adventure which started in 2001 and officially in launched in 2003. Gail (mother) and Jamie (daughter) Getzwiller share a love for travel and yoga which lead to a natural development of the YogaPaws. Over the past 8 years they have embarked on a journey of love and working dedication to produce the best "Paws" possible. Yoga Paws have been a product and company that cares about spreading the love and allowing all the yogi's around the world to enjoy as non-slip practice Anytime Anywhere.

Yoga Paws are “the yoga mat you wear” They are made of Eco-Friendly TPE yoga mat material that contains 6mm of cushion and Recycled Natural Rubber. They also contain a towel lining which absorbs 7x its weight in moisture, so the more you sweat the more you stick – Pretty cool!

Yoga Paws are very comfortable, fit me perfectly, and have amazing gripping power. I’ve used them on both hardwood floors and carpet, and they worked great on both surfaces. I can now hold poses much better because I’m not constantly slipping.

I’ve been using these for a few weeks now and they have been used & washed a lot. They are still holding up, and are just as great as the day I got them.

Yoga Paws are also great for travelling as they take up little room and you do not need to lug around a mat or worry about not having enough space to lay a mat down.

I highly recommend these if you do yoga and/or any other floor exercises. I will no longer do yoga without my Yoga Paws! I love them so much :)

2012-02-05T22:55:00.000-05:00

The Hot Tools Curling Iron is by far the most popular curling iron in the world, it’s been around since the beginning and it has lasted through time for one reason alone because it simply works. Hot Tools Curling irons are ranked #1 on our Top Curling Iron List mainly because of their reliability, performance and most of all its low price. If you simply want a curling iron that will get the job done this will be your choice.

Hot Tools Curling Irons are available in a variation of different sizes that include 0.375" , 0.5" , 0.625", 0.75", 1", 1.25", 1.5", and 2" For my review, I was sent the The Hot Tools Curling Iron in 1". This iron creates beautiful curls and loose waves. It heats up fairly quickly, is super easy to use and my curls lasted all day long. I even slept on it and it still looked really good the next day.

At first, I was a bit skeptical on how well Hot Tools Curling Iron was going to perform because it's inexpensive & not tourmaline or a ceramic, so I thought the results were going to be just OK, but I have to say I'm pretty impressed with it! It is only $45.95 making it a GREAT inexpensive curling iron.

It holds very well, adds shine, does not weight hair down, does not build up, and it's not sticky. I was able to work through my hair after I sprayed it, and my hair still had a lot of movement and life to it. This has been the best finishing spray I've used on my hair and I cannot wait to see how it'll perform when the weather is hotter. All in all a good product!

Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts Review & Giveaway

2012-02-03T12:42:00.002-05:00

Manitoba Harvest is a Canadian company based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. They manufacture many hemp products which include hemp beverages, hemp oil & butter, hemp protein, and hemp hearts.

For my review, I was sent a bag of Hemp Hearts. If you do not know what Hemp Hearts are they are basically shelled hemp seeds, and they are a great source of protein, fiber and omegas!

These have a nice light nutty flavor to them. I enjoy adding them to cereal, oatmeal, salad, toast, smoothies, hot/cold main dishes and I even like to eat a spoonful directly out of the bag. Hemp Hearts are really delicious and so versatile, they can be added to practically anything.

I find that when I eat Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts they completely fill me up, and I also find that I do not crave anything sweet. I think this is very beneficial especially if you are trying to loose weight.

Delicious, tasty, filling, and healthy! Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts are a great product to add into your diet. I highly recommend them!

My Ribbon Barrette Maker Review & Giveaway

2012-01-31T17:23:00.002-05:00

Do you have a little girl that loves creating things? If you do then My RibbonBarrette Maker is a great toy for your creative little girl!

My Ribbon Barrette Maker allows kids to design and create their very own ribbon barrettes. Recommend for kids 6 years and older, this set makes creating barrettes fun and easy.

The set comes with:

8 barrettes
16 ribbons
128 tri beads
Loom
Tray
Instructions

My daughter is 7, and she was very excited when My Ribbon Barrette Maker arrived in the mail. She immediately opened the box and got cracking. I did have to show her what to do at first, but after that she was able to do it all by herself. She really likes it, and she's been making barrettes for herself, her sister, and her friends. She is very proud of all her creations and enjoy wearing her lovely barrettes to school. I must admit, I also like making these barrettes as much as my 7 year old does!

I really like that the bottom of the workstation has a storage compartment because it keeps everything very organized and secure. Also, the barrette and ribbon holders make creating barrettes super easy as it eliminates any confusion or tangles by keeping the ribbon sorted.

Overall, My Ribbon Barrette Maker was a big hit with my daughter and I think it's an excellent kit for any creative/crafty kid :)
