Astor Canvas Log Carrier Review



MarksvilleandMe reviews the Astor Canvas Log Carrier

When the Astor Canvas Log Carrier arrived even though I read the size I didn't think it would actually be as big as it was. I love how it doesn't have open ends. No more wood falling out and smashing you in the foot, or tripping over one that you didn't see fall out. 

Our family found another use for this bag as well. When we buy groceries I use coupons so even if it is a small trip, it is bound to fill up the back of our SUV. We can carry in about 3-4 canvas orpaper grocery bags with this and if they are just in plastic even more that that. 

We also buy our soda in bulk when it is on sale, which means about 20-40 bottles at a time and again this can carry them in a lot more quickly then each person carrying in 2-4 bottles. The best part is that the Astor Canvas Log Carrier can be washed and dried. 

So if you have a heavy load to carry this might be something you would want to make your job easier. 

You can buy a Astor Canvas Log Carrier on Amazon.

What Astor has to say about their product 

Make quick work of bringing logs indoors to your fireplace with the heavy-duty Astor Canvas Log Carrier. Its roomy size and smart design handle big loads with ease ... and keep dirt, moisture and splinters off your hands, clothes and floors at the same time!
Tough, Leak-Proof Canvas

The Astor Log Carrier is built to last. The super strong canvas body can carry up to 8 logs at a time without tearing. Plus, it's lined inside with PVC, so dirt and water can't seep through onto your floors or rugs. And although it performs like a heavyweight, it only weighs 1 lb.
End Walls Prevent Slippage

If you've tried open-ended carriers, you know how easy it is for logs to fall out if you don't keep them balanced just right. And if you've tried box-shaped carriers, you know they're not so easy to fill. The Astor presents the perfect compromise: lay it flat to fill, then simply lift the handles and logs are automatically aligned and contained.
Reinforced Handles Won't Come Loose

Designed for maximum security, the Astor's handles are actually continuous loops that are stitched all the way around the carrier. There's no way they could rip off! Nor can they tear apart, because they're made of reinforced fabric designed to support heavy loads.
Easy Care, Easy Storage

The Astor Log Carrier can easily be rinsed or hosed clean. If you want, you can even put it in the washing machine (cold water) and dryer (air fluff setting). You can also store it just about anywhere: it folds to a mere 6" x 4" x 1".

My Favorite Animal: Dogs written by Victoria Marcos is a cute book with vivid pictures that you or your child can read and learn about dogs. The book also has areas where it  asks questions and you have to guess, and wait till the end to learn if you are right. 

A great way to learn about animals for both children and adults. Great for striking up a conversation with your child, while learning in a fun way.

Animal Family Portraits Review


MarksvilleandMe reviews Animal Family Portraits
written by
Becky Lam
Animal Family Portraits written by Becky Lam is a simple book with pictures of animals, that you would probably never see in a photo together. Also great for children to learn new names for animals they may not know. 

Animals are fun for just about anyone, with children being one of their biggest fans. My grand daughter loves to look at the pictures and for me to repeat the names of the animals she doesn't know while she points at them. When she comes to one she know she yells out the name or when she remembers a new name on her own she yells that out too. She gets so excited. Would love to see more pictures of more animals.

Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush Review


The Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush is my new favorite kitchen gadget. Anyone who knows me knows I love kitchen gadgets. Right now the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush comes in Green as above and Yellow which you can see below. We ordered the yellow.

The Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush is easy to fill, use, and wash when you are all done. I like that my children can help sauce our meat or even oil our baking pans for a treat. You can also use the spout to pour oil in your pans. I want to get a second one to have for my olive oil this would be very useful in our home. 

I would like to see the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush made in red as well. I am really excited about this company and their products they are all awesome. I can not wait to see what they come up with next. 


Check out how easy it is to use below.




What Beesili has to say about their product 

If you cook at home and want to save money, time, health and the environment you will love this product. Drizzle oil from the bottle sparingly, turn over and use the  convenient built in brush to baste and spread the liquid. 

You can purchase the Bee Sili Silicone Oil & Sauce Bottle & Basting Brush  on Beesili or on Amazon.
