Divine Botanics




One of my favorite ways to relax when the kids are down for the night is to take a bath and read. One of the ways I relax is by using a facial mask and popping in a Bath Bomb for some extra pizazz.

Plus I love the way the ball looks when it is breaking down in the water. My girls call them fizzy balls. This set is packaged well for gift giving and has Konjac sponge.

My older daughter loves the Konjac sponges for washing her face, These Bath Bombs are big bombs not the tiny ones we often see but the really big ones which are nice to have around.

Making over a old toss pillow



This pillow cover was the perfect way to update old throw pillows in our home to match our bedroom decor.

I love that this has pockets to keep our remotes in because they are always being misplaced around the room.

This cover would also be great in the living room but like I said we used ours in the bedroom over an old toss pillow which you can see in the picture.

Easy to stuff either with an old toss pillow or filler. Nice zipper that pretty much disappears once zippered.



This cover can be found on Amazon in two colors.


A custom designed throw pillow (cushion) cover made of jacquard fabric which has three pockets sewn on to the outside to accommodate storage for a variety of small gadgets and accessories (remote controls, cellphones, glasses, etc).  It's designed to fit over a standard size pillow (18in x 18in) and can easily be removed for washing.  The pillow insert is not included.

Action Camera Kit.



Love this set, it has so many pieces to hook up to your Gopro or other action camera. This is the best kit I have seen to date, and can not wait to use it.

We have played with the pieces a bit to familiarize ourselves with the products so when we go to use them we pick the right pieces for the job at hand.

I know my girls would have loved to have this when they went on the skyfall last year, or even the human slingshot. They were pretty daring last year and having a Gopro then would have been really nice, but summer is almost here so there will be more time for getting some great shots of them in action.

The case is really nice and holds all of the items quite well. They all come packaged in different bags within the bigger bag so you can easily lay them out to make sure you received everything in the kit. I really like the bag because it is comfortable to hold and fits inside of my larger camera bag where I carry my regular digital camera, my iPad mini, and now my Gopro bag and camera. Perfect for any action camera enthusiast.  (Gopro camera not included)

The Action Camera Kit can be found on Amazon.


GO PRO with this GoPro Kit Bundle for Hero 1 2 3 4 that is compatible with any action camera.
GO PRO using 31 different GroPro accessories including a memory card, tripods, harnesses, mounts, and hooks in a sturdy case for active and extreme sports enthusiasts.
GO PRO with hands-free recording using the chest harness and head strap by capturing the moment with your action camera while cycling, hiking, climbing, running, motocross, or any other outdoor action sports.
GO PRO with high-quality materials that are designed to keep you and yours safe while filming action.
GO PRO confidently with a 1 year limited warranty. Having the best action camera kit available, Action Camera Kit offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

My husband loves this kind of over the ear headphone because they stay on his ears better. He can move and not worry about them falling off. This is how he listens to his shows when I am sleeping.

Easy to hook up via bluetooth, great sound, and fit. We are very happy with these headphone or should I say my husband is very happy with them.

They come with several ear pieces so you can find the best fit for your ears. Charging cord is included.

Recently I was able to try out two product from Phytopia. Each product is sold separately. Both products come with a nice velvet pouch and silver tie to store the product in between uses.

The first is Tranquility which is an essential oil that you can rub and or massage into your neck and shoulder area to relax your body. I really like this one and it is my favorite.

The second product is the Stretch Mark remover which is great for anyone who has given birth, lost weight, or put on weight. Great for the belly, arm, and thigh areas. Easily soaks into skin.

What I love most is that these products don't have a lot of chemicals that will soak in and cause my body harm. These are great for both the home and therapedic setting.
