HotelSpa® Ultra-Luxury 7-setting LED Hand Shower with Temperature Sensor



Recently my bathroom got a mini makeover with a new shower head, liner, and rings. I am thankful for the little things in life and a nice shower is one of them.

What I love about this shower and it is something we show people when they come over is the LED lights. For me I now know my children can take a shower and they know that green is safe while red is too hot for them. Personally My shower flickers from red to green for it to be just right for me, but everyone has a different temperature they like to take their showers at.

This is a great for children who are just learning to take their own showers that way you know they shouldn't burn themselves. Great product for home or hotel. I can see why hotels might want to put this in their business. It lets their customers know when it is safe to take a shower and when it isn't. The one thing I love about hotels is their never ended hot water for showers or baths.

6000 Piece Loom Band set (10 colors)



The rubber band looms and bracelets are still going strong. For us it is a problem finding bands in our local stores so I have been ordering from online. Recently we received the 6000 Piece Loom Band set in (10 colors). 

My girls were like vultures as soon as they were opened they were calling out the colors they wanted. I told them as soon as I got a few pictures they could have them. Soon as the pictures were done the bands disappeared and they have been making bracelets ever since.   

Not all bands are created equal I am sure some other parents out there have run into the bands that are way to big or to thin. You don't have to worry about these bands they are just right, and easy to work with. Like I said the pictures were in hurry so they could go off and create, so excuse the mess in the background.


You can buy the 6000 Piece Loom Band set (10 colors) here or on Amazon.

The Japanese Konjac Sponge - Activated Bamboo Charcoal Natural Facial Cleanser




Ever since I was a teenager I have enjoyed trying new products to wash my face with. The Japanese Konjac sponge is one of the newer items I have used and it is fantastic. Although the one I am reviewing today was given to my daughter to use as she has had a lot of break outs on both her face and back, so I wanted to get her something gentle but effective. 

I enjoy my Japanese Konjac sponge although it is a different form, they currently have 6 kinds available, which you can find on their site (the link is below), I thought this would be a great way to start her off on top of the cleanser she is using.

I love how it transforms from a hard product into this soft fluffy sponge, it is amazing and never gets old. If you have children make sure they are around when you transform yours so they can see the difference a little water can make. Before the Konjac sponge I was a big Sea Sponge fan, not that I still don't love it but I have a new fondness for the Japanese Konjac Sponge that can't compare. 

The Japanese Konjac Sponge is super easy to use and works wonderful, leaves your face soft and clean. 





You can purchase the Japanese Konjac Sponge  here or on Amazon.

Family wall decal



Being a big family, I love to have lots of photos hanging up, sadly since we moved here about 8 years ago, we haven't had many up, most of them are still packed away. Why you ask? Because even though I am thankful for this big old farm house we live in, the walls sadly can not hold a picture. 

So I have been dreaming of the day when we will have a place to put the pictures while planning out how all of the pictures will hang, Pinterest is a great place to find ideas for how to arrange pictures. One of the posts I liked included having the words Family somewhere mixed in with the photos.

Bobee so generously sent me another of their clings to review and this one is just perfect for using this very way. This cling is 22 inches long by 10 inches high, pretty big and will look great surrounded by photos.

I can't wait to see the finished product. Now to fill all those frames that have been hanging around.




You can purchase the Family Bobee wall cling on Amazon.


What Bobee has to say about their product. 

• Decal can be applied to any smooth surface such as walls, windows, doors, mirrors, furniture, chalkboards, and more. 
• Add the vinyl word to your photo collage and really make the décor pop! 
• It's an excellent way to inexpensively decorate and fun too! 
• The Family sticker is ideal for surrounding your family pictures. Add photos around the vinyl sticker!

Bellaboo Chocolate Mask For Tweens and Teens



I love to tell my readers about great products, but my children love to help out with some of the reviews as well. Bellaboo Sweet Sin Chocolate Face Mask could not have come at a better time. It is still very much winter here and tonight we are getting what looks like an ice storm. My husband said the roads were pretty bad and he traveled all of the main roads to get home instead of taking backroad shortcuts.

The girls decided it was time to get out the face mask and give it a whirl. Oh boy does it smell like chocolate and goes on like a thick pudding, but looks like melted chocolate once on the face. You can view my video on YouTube here.

My daughter Deanna pictured below did not feel tingling like others said their children had, but I have felt that with grownup masks so I am pretty sure I understand what they are talking about, it just didn't happen with my daughter.

We did a little spa night which my girls love, we try to do something special a few times a week depending on how healthy I am at the time being. Once the mask dried my daughter went up to take a shower and wash the mask off.

She came running down after the shower because she wanted everyone to feel how soft and smooth her face was, well she is sold, and she doesn't like just anything.

What I liked best which I didn't mention in my video is how this doesn't have sulphates or parabens in it. Sulphates my daughter is allergic to which is something I look for in food or medicine all of the time but didn't always check what we were putting on our bodies for the allergen.

As a mother keeping your children healthy and safe is never ending.


You can purchase Bellaboo Chocolate Mask on Amazon.
