Kaylees Craft Store Review

Charcoal Bath Bomb Kaylees Craft Store 2000

Kaylee’s Craft Store is a fun and exciting shop found on Etsy. Kaylee, the owner and designer, makes fun and hip bath bombs for everyday use. Ranging in scents and themes, she is sure to have something that will rock your world!

Being a self -proclaimed bath bomb expert, I know what I want in a bath bomb. Kaylee’s Craft Store hit the mark with everyone of their bath bombs I tried. The key elements that make or break a tub time experience are: feel of the water, coloring, strength of scent and fizz factor. Every Kaylee’s Craft Store’s bath bomb had the perfect amount of scent added. Not too powerful but not too weak. I don’t want to smell like a flower factory after my bath, but I do want to enjoy the scent while relaxing. Her’s were perfect. Coloring is very important to me. I hate when a bath bomb dissolves and it’s was too small or lacked in coloring, leaving me with a weakly colored tub. I use a standard size bathtub, nothing crazy big. I think that when the tub is filled and the bomb is fully dissolved you should have a decent coloring to the water. Kaylee’s were right on the money. Finally, watching the bomb dissolve and feeling the little fizz is the main experience you by a bath bomb for. Each bomb was fun to watch, fizzed and bubbled away for the standard dissolving time of 1 to 2 minutes. It was a real treat every time using a Kaylee’s Craft Store product.

I have never used a Charcoal bath bomb before, and man am I hooked! Charcoal is used to detoxify your skin and help with skin impurities. This bomb turned my bath water a deep blueish greenish color. It was so deep in color that I couldn’t see my feet under the water. I never experienced such a thick coloring in a bath bomb before and I loved it! I could feel my skin being softened as I soaked. I didn’t know that charcoal would be such a soothing scent. Using one of theses bath bombs is the perfect way to unwind.

Pokemon Surprise Inside Bath Bombs:

Kaylees Craft Shop PokeBall Once again, Pokemon is all the rage again with many avid players checking out Pokémon Cards For Sale, especially if they are old school and remember the days of the original Pokemon. What with the latest installment, Pokemon Go! as well as the fact my kids will not stop asking me to get them a pokemon black and white rom game to play for 300+ hours we’re always getting something Pokemon related. Oh but don’t get me the wrong way. My kids and I cannot express our love for Pokemon enough. When I saw that Kaylee’s Craft Store made these little pokeballs I was in shock! What a perfect item for adults and children alike. The ball is made with a combination of white, red and blue coloring, which will turn your bath into a lovely lavender color. But the best part about this special PokeBall is that there is a Pokemon figurine inside for you too. It’s like a bath tub blind bag! If you want to spice up your kids bath with a super fun treat, this is a must have product. Just don’t take your Nintendo DS or smartphone in the bath to try and catch it!

My Pokeball was peppermint scented and it went perfectly with the light lavender color my tub water turned. I got the Wigglytuff, which is Jigglypuff’s evolution (I told you I love Pokemon). With all the excitement and nostalgia that Pokemon evokes, this is a must buy bomb!

Colori Classic Set

I have never been professionally trained, but I have attended a few classes at a professional cooking school (Western Reserve Cooking School). Being a student, I tried to observe and take in all that I could. What I noticed was that all of the knifes they choose to use there are Kuhn Rikon. If they are good enough for this amazing school they must be good enough for my own kitchen. After doing some research I was so excited to see that they are truly in the average consumers budget. A knife, or a knife set, is not something you constantly purchase. You buy a set a stick with it for several years. You want a knife that will maintain its integrity and keep sharp. I have found that when treated and washed properly that a Kuhn Rikon knife will keep sharp far longer than any other knife I have worked with.

I highly suggest trying out Kuhn Rikon’s Colori®+ Classic Culinary Knife Set. The set contains: a paring knife, a serrated paring, a utility knife, and a serrated utility knife. Each knife has a sharp Japanese stainless steel blade with a colorful ergonomic handle and matching safety sheath. Japanese stainless steel blades are super sharp, making short work of cooking tasks.

Kuhn Rikon Colori Classic Set

Colori®+ Classic knives offer convenience through their sharpness, secure-grip handles, and lightweight design, making all of your kitchen prep tasks a breeze.  This versatile set offers a greater amount of control for slicing, de-boning, and other kitchen prep-tasks.

  • Handy all-purpose knives – can handle all your kitchen prep tasks in record time.
  • Paring Knife: perfect for slicing cheese for your sandwich, peeling an apple, or chopping vegetables.
  • Serrated Paring Knife: perfect for slicing bread, tomatoes, and other soft fruits.
  • Utility Knife: for de-boning meats and other tricky kitchen tasks.

Super Undies Training Pants Review

Super Undies Review 300

Training a child to use the bathroom is no easy task. It’s time consuming and can really wear you down. Being prepared is the first step in beginning to potty train your child. I am in no way an expert in this field! I wing it like most other parents. I learn as I go with my child. Each child is perfectly unique, and their potty training experience will be unique as well. For my children I couldn’t push them to start earlier than they wanted. For some amazing tips and tricks about potty training just click here.

My son has been a cloth diaper wearing child. I knew I wanted to continue that choice while embarking on my potty training season. Why use cloth for all that time then switch to disposable trainers? If you have been using disposables, now is the perfect time to switch to a cloth based product. You don’t wear disposable underwear yourself, do you? I mean, why monkey with all that trash?

This Mama’s Experience

Super Undies Training Pants

Having already potty trained my daughter (who I used disposables with and disposable pull ups) I was really excitedmax 2 and sad to begin the potty training journey with my son. After countless prayers and conversations my husband and I have decided that he will be our last child (unless God chooses otherwise).  I love my cloth diapers. Like love them. I am going to miss seeing my son wear those adorable little prints and see that cute fluff butt running around. But I know he needs to grow up and I have to swallow that pill and take the plunge. My son is very interested in potty training due to his age (he is 2.5) and because he has a sister who is older to him but close in age (3). She is the leader in his little world and he wants to be just like her, and that includes using the potty. He has also begun the take-off-the-diaper-to-run-around-naked stage of life. This signals that he is becoming more aware of his body and that he doesn’t like the wetness of his diaper any more.

It is good for a child to feel their wetness while potty training. This makes them uncomfortable. They like the dry feeling, and can you blame them? Diapers wick away the moisture, we don’t necessarily want that in a day time trainer. We want them to learn that going to the bathroom on the toilet keeps me dry. I like to be dry. I should pee on on the toilet. It’s very elementary thinking. My son, being the younger child, is fully aware that his big sister only wears underwear. He is very interested in them too. When I asked him if he wanted to wear underwear he looked at me in a confused but curious face. He is not very verbal so I took that as a yes. I was so excited to see that I was pulling them on him like a real pair of underpants, not laying him down for a cloth diaper. He was able to help set into his underpants too. His sister immediately got excited for him and told him how cool his underpants were. That made that little boy feel over the moon with joy.

These training pants are such high quality that I was instantly in love. My sons face lit up when he felt the pants instead of a diaper. He knew he was wearing underwear right away. He felt excited and it increased his conference. If you have struggled with potty training in the past, using Super Undies a great way to boost moral. 

Groupon Spa Deals

groupon logo

Being a mom I get swept up in taking care of my kids and family. I love being a mother to my children and a loving wife to my husband, but I also need to remember to recharge and take care of myself. I personally unwind and take a bath several times per week to settle down and focus on myself. At least once per month I try to do something extra for myself too, typically in the form of a spa treatment. Being the frugal wife I am, I try to cut costs whenever I can. I love using Groupon to find the best local deals. I love to use Groupon for finding the best local deals on manicures, pedicures, massages and facials. They even have a few specials on hair removal services, which I think would be a great gift to any busy women. I would love to take shaving off my shower time check list. I barely have time to wash my body that I often have to cut out shaving. Booking yourself into a hair removal clinic could be the ideal method for you if you’re looking for a more permanent solution to getting rid of unwanted hair. Head over to Groupon to find the best local hair removal deals in your area.

Remember Forever Blessed Grove Keepsakes

Using breast milk, placenta, hair clippings or created ashes, Blessed Grove Keepsakes can make a special memory last a lifetime by transforming them into amazing, wearable jewelry. 

This Mama’s Experience

Breastfeeding my children was one of the most precious times in my life. It is hard for me to express just how much of an impact it made on my relationship with my children, relationship with God and my overall parenting choices. It truley is a moving and magical experience. The feel of holding your child close, skin to skin. Seeing their tiny hands wrap around your hair or finger. Knowing that you are giving them amazing nutrition and nutrients that man is not able to recreated gives you a feeling of wonder and humbles me in my faith.

I know many mothers who loved breastfeeding their kids. We talk about it with such fond memories; recounting the feelings and emotions that it evokes. Recently I heard about the concept of creating a bead from your breast milk. The concept blow my mind. At first I was a little bit weirded out. Then I thought about it quite a bit, like a lot. Then I started to fall in love with the idea. When I heard about Blessed Grove Keepsakes I took the time to look around her website and saw that she makes classy pieces for everyday people. I was instantly interested.

Bead Blessed Grove

I had a small bag (about 4 ounces) of breast milk in my deep freezer. I stopped breastfeeding around Feb or March of 2016, but I had that small bag that I never got around to tossing and I am SO glad that I didn’t! That was all the Blessed Grove Keepsakes needed to make a perfect little pearl-like bead out of my milk. I love how this bead looks like a typical pearl or bead. Nothing about it screams “Hey! I am wearing my booby milk people”. It’s simple, it’s classy and totally me.

Blessed Grove Keepsakes can accept shipments from US and Canada (if out of these countries please reach out to Monique about possibly working with her). It took a while for my milk to arrive due to customs and the fact that I was shipping a liquid through the USPS. Monique can walk you through what to write on the customs form and declaring the liquid.

The cost of one of these beads is C$65.00, which is roughly $50 in US dollars. This is a wonderful price! For a keepsake that is forever that is made with care you cannot go wrong with a Blessed Grove Keepsakes bead.
