Dali Decals Review and Giveaway



Lately, I have been really fortunate to do some great review and giveaways for Wall decals and wall quotes, my house has been looking really nice with all of them on the walls. The best thing is that each company that I have had the pleasure of working with is completely different, so all of the decals are not the same. The latest company is Dali Decals and they have such a HUGE selection of Wall decals, quotes, trees, shapes and so much more for you to choose from. I received a great wall quote for review: "This Is Your World, Shape It Or Someone Else Will." I picked black matte in color and I decided to put it in my dining room right above the entrance from the kitchen. It looks really nice and the oldest really noticed it as soon as she came home the day I put it up. I think there is really something special and inviting about a wall quote or decal, makes the home look cared for and decorated. I was really impressed with the quality of this particular Dali Decals and loved the font style of the quote. It really makes my dining room look nice! It was also so easy and quick to put up, I had it done in less than 10 minutes and they even sent me the tool for easy transfer. These wall decals from Dali Decals would make a lovely addition to your home or as a housewarming gift for someone. You are sure to find a style or quote to fit your needs.


Dali Decals are a great and inexpensive way to decorate your apartment, home, office and more. They have hundreds of stock-designed wall decals that can be made in over 40 colors to match just about any decor. They can also be custom sized to suit your needs and they also create custom wall decals to your specific instruction and designs. You can work directly with a Dali Decals designer to create just what you want to fit your style and home. Wall decals are quicker, easier, and less expensive than painting. The Wall decals from Dali Decals have a painted on look once installed and are easy to remove at any time. Each decal includes step-by-step instructions and an application squeegee with each order. A representative is always available with any questions or concerns that you may have. These wall decals are easy to install on just about every wall, smooth or textured, and are easily removable without damaging the walls, but these decals are not reusable. Dali Decals can also be applied to glass surfaces, indoors or outdoors, and even on vehicles. They use only the best quality material available for each one of their decals.



Dali Decals has a great new variety of wall decals available as well as special decals for the nursery, trees, branches, floral grasses, quotes, monograms, playful & fun, shapes, urban, sports, animals & insects, wedding, toilet decals, headboards and furniture, people, geographical, color samples, and holiday wall decals as well.

Oxi Clean Max Force Review and Giveaway





I hate doing laundry, it is one of the worst chores out there. Having two active girls and a hard working hubby, I end up doing laundry twice a week just to keep up with it all. I have used a lot of different brands and types of laundry detergent, because I haven't found one that truly gets the jobs done and when I do it may be on sale one week and full price the next and I might not be able to afford it. I have used off brand generic to All to Tide as well as a variety of stain removers. Some stain removers work really well, others not so much. I may have finally found help with my laundry situation after all of the time. I was SOOO lucky to have been contacted by a PR rep named Sarah who represents Oxi Clean. I'm sure a lot of you if not all of you have either heard of or tried any form of Oxi Clean products for yourself. How can you have missed the commercials of the late, great Billy Mays plugging away about how well Oxi Clean really works? I know that when it first came out, my aunt swore by it. She added it to every load of laundry especially her whites and always said she got great results. It wasn't until I tried it that I knew exactly what she was talking about. The whites were definitely whiter and the colors a lot brighter. Well, I was lucky enough to get sent two of Oxi Clean's brand new products that should be hitting your stores shelves any day now and I can't begin to tell you how excited I was to be able to get this opportunity. The products I got to try were:
*Oxi Clean Max Force Power Paks 4 in1- These are such a great products and so easy to use. Power paks seems to be the in thing lately, but these paks from Oxi Clean work with your detergent by releasing oxygen that seeks out hidden stains and makes your colors and whites brighter. Simply drop one in your wash and let it work, it's deep cleaning that works well with all temperatures. I absolutely love the results that I got with using these. With my girls, especially little one, there are sometimes stains that I don't see until it's too late. There's also some stains that I see and know that are there but forget to spray. With Oxi Clean Max Force Power Paks, I feel confident that if I do indeed forget to do that, that they will take care of the stains and make my clothes look their best without those embarrassing stains. I absolutely love these and these will be a staple in my home and in my laundry regime.
*Oxi Clean Max Force Gel Stick- This stick is key for me to have in my household. It is so easy to use and ready when you are! It helps you get the stains out the first time, It comes equipped with a special applicator that gets those tough hard to get stains and gets deep down into clothing fibers where the thick gel formula sticks to stains and breaks them down. The color safe formula is packed with four types of stain fighters.
*Amylase Enzyme-Lifts food stains from fabrics
*Solvents/Surfactants-Dissolve and trap grease and oil
*Polymers-Bind to dirt and soils to suspend and rinse them away
*Protease Enzyme-Targets protein stains like grass and blood
This Gel Stick Pretreater works best on tough stains, even ones that set in on clothes for over a week. Just rub it on your clothes and let set for a few minutes before throwing it into your normal load of wash.



Both of these new Oxi Clean Max Force products are a must have. Oxi Clean products have been around for a while and has been a trusted name in my family for years. More than 15 years ago, scientists came up with a way to harness the power of oxygen to clean better than ever before. The breakthrough was Oxi Clean Versatile Stain Remover, a cleaning sensation that virtually revolutionized the industry. Today there are several Oxi Clean products to fit your needs that all contain oxygen.
The Oxi Clean formulation is actually a combination of ingredients, the chief ingredients being hydrogen peroxide. Another essential part of the formula is surfactants or detergents. Combined these ingredients work together to do amazing things like:
*Making stains soluable in water
*Emulsifying oils
*Lifting stains off surfaces
*Providing the right combination for the right job
Oxi Clean is environmentally sensible, powered by the air we breathe and water we drink so it uses the environment to fight stains, it is also biodegradable.

For more information on these new Oxi Clean Max Force products and all of the other great products that Oxi Clean has to offer, head over HERE.

Explorer's Bounty Review and Giveaway


My hubby loves his coffee and tea and his love of tea has rubbed off on both of my girls. My oldest loves hot tea and likes to have a cup just before bedtime and especially when she is sick, for her there's nothing better than a hot cup of honey lemon or peppermint tea to make her feel better. She also loves iced tea, one of her favorites has always been raspberry iced tea. Little one loves taking sips off of her dad's iced tea all of the time. Hubby loves all kinds of tea whether it be hot or cold and drinks all kinds of coffee as well, except for vanilla flavored coffees, he can't stand those. We are also lovers of chocolate. Hubby and the oldest absolutely love their dark chocolate, while I am more towards the white and sometimes milk chocolate. Crackers are also a great snack around my home. Little one loves her crackers, sometimes that's all she eats. The reason why I bring all of this up, is that there is a great company out there that offers all of these great products and more. They're called Explorer's Bounty and their thing is offering the consumers a great range of premium organic products like coffees, teas, crackers, chocolates and puffed fruits. I was very fortunate enough to receive a wonderful assortment of their products as follows:


Explorer's Bounty Coffee Ground Colombian Medium Roast-Organic- Hubby absolutely loved this coffee. He tends to gravitate toward the light to medium roast coffees, but once in a while loves a dark robust coffee. They call this Expedition El Dorado and is the best known and highly marketed coffee in the world. It is a well balanced coffee and is rich in flavor with a medium body and crisp finish. I tried some of this coffee and I know it tasted delicious when I added my Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer. Hubby brews a pot of coffee every morning before he goes to work, so needless to say, this coffee didn't last too long around my house!
Explorer's Bounty Dark Chocolate Covered Macadamia Nuts- I was lucky to even get one of these to try, as soon as my hubby and the oldest saw these, they pretty much attacked them. I absolutely LOVE Macadamia Nuts, if they weren't so expensive, I would buy them all of the time and eat them up. When I was 7 years old, I went to Hawaii and they gave us a bunch of these little package of Macadamia Nuts on the airplane. I ate so many of them that I made myself sick. I haven't had them in so long, but I still love them just the same. If you are a lover of dark chocolate, you will definitely love these as the dark chocolate coating is very good and flavorful. I know my family enjoyed them very much as these are completely gone as well.


Explorer's Bounty Organic Puffed Pineapple- This was a really delicious treat. Both of the girls and I loved this because it was full of great pineapple flavor and it crunches, how many times do you get to eat crunchy pineapple? I love this for my girls because it's not only a tasty snack, but it's good for them as well. They have other varieties of this fruit too like Sweet Plantain, Banana Cinnamon, Pineapple Cinnamon, Banana Pineapple and Banana. I would honestly love to try all of them as they all sound really good.

Explorer's Bounty Organic Yuca Onion Tribal Stone Crackers- These crackers had absolutely amazing flavor and when partnered with a sharp cheddar cheese, was a yummy and satisfying snack. These crackers are gluten free, fat free and you get a small hint of sweetness from the brown sugar that is added. My little one really like these crackers and just couldn't get enough of them and quite honestly neither could I.


Explorer's Bounty Expedition Tribal Tea-Green Tea & Mate- Of course, hubby and the oldest daughter loved these tea, hubby is a HUGE fan of green tea and told me that this was one of the best that he has ever tried. Very flavorful and certified organic, this tea is great with a few crackers or a piece of toast for a bedtime snack.


Explorer's Bounty Expedition Tribal Tea-Orange & Mate Black Tea- I loved this tea, because I love everything orange. This had some wonderful orange flavor that sometimes I forgot it was a tea! Another tea that is certified organic like the rest of their products, this is a great tea to enjoy by itself, with a snack or just by itself as a special treat. This is by far the best tea that I have had the pleasure of trying in quite a while.

Explorer's Bounty is devoted to making our planet a better place to live. They search the world over for earth friendly, extraordinary products that help preserve the environment. They strive to support organic farmers who reduce the pollution and waste so harmful to our planet. At Explorer's Bounty, they believe Mother Earth is the most impor
tant asset for all of us and generations to come.

Gaddy Nipper Crayons Review and Giveaway




My oldest daughter is a budding artist, she loves to color, draw and paint anything and everything that she can get her hands on. She's also starting to be a little fashion designer of sorts, although I wish she would take more time on her own appearance sometimes. I can't begin to tell you how many sets of markers, colored pencils, chalk and crayons that we have bought her. She has a tendency to break crayons a lot or chew on colored pencils, I can never figure out why she does it. I found the BEST little Etsy store where I can find her the cutest, most unique and unbreakable crayons that I know she will not only be able to use, but love to use as well. It's called Gaddy Nipper Crayons and they have some really cool crayons in all different shades and styles to keep your artists entertained. I was sent the cutest little set of Cupcake Crayons for review. Upon opening the box, if you didn't know these were crayons, you would think they were indeed little cupcakes. They were attractively packaged and complete with the little paper wrappers that come on the bottom of the cupcakes. They come in two pieces, the cupcake top (which I have always found to be the tastiest part of the cupcake, what's better than frosting?!) and bottom so it's almost like getting 12 crayons instead of 6. My oldest daughter was so excited when she got these, she couldn't wait to try them out. I almost didn't want her to use them, they were too adorable. She did end up using them to make some fantastic pictures and color in her coloring books. She has used them so much that they are almost gone! I actually got a chance to test them out, the colors are vibrant and they really made great marks. Gaddy Nipper Crayons are handmade, hand poured and non-toxic and if you don't see something that you like at the site, you can contact them and they'll see what they can do for you, talk about great customer service, Nichole was a pleasure to work with. I definitely will be ordering more crayons from Gaddy Nipper Crayons in the future, my daughter is already telling me which ones she wants.


Gaddy Nipper Crayons specializes in custom made crayons for every occasion. Each and every crayon and crayon set comes packaged just the way you like it, whether you want it individually or separate, it's up to you. You will also receive free personalization with every purchase. Gaddy Nipper Crayons offers a great selection for your party needs and gift giving needs as well. These crayons would make wonderful birthday, Christmas gifts and so much more. Some of the crayons are small and less than one inch in length, make sure to read the item description before purchasing if you have little ones like me that like to eat everything and put everything in their mouths. All of the crayons from Gaddy Nipper Crayons are made from recycled Crayola crayons. They have a great selection of NEW crayons available such as crayon gems, mustache crayons, animal crackers and farm yard. You really have to see these crayons to appreciate the hard work and dedication that goes in to making them. For more information and to see all that Gaddy Nipper has to offer, head over HERE.
