Who says you can't swim? #OBelivers

Summer is here or at least it feels like it has which means lots of time for swimming and beach fun.

I know my girls are gearing up for time near the water and OB is helping us by sending us their OB Pro Comfort in regular so we can swim all month long.

No more suffering through hot days waiting for it to be safe to go swimming, now you can go and not have to worry.

OB Pro Comfort regular is great for beginners or those with a light to moderate flow.

ShikShook

I have one other shaker set and it is not nearly as nice as this one. I love that this one has the name of the product all over it so I don't mix up my pieces. This set comes with your shaker, top, double jigger, 2 pourers and a nice velvet like bag to store your items in between use.

This is a really nice set that we use to make bubble tea rather then mixed drinks. We have found when adding flavor to our bubble tea the larger size jigger works the best. Very easy to care for. I just make sure that it is completely dry before storing away.

The ShikShook can be found on Amazon.

Infused Water Pitcher

We have been making what we call spa water for a few years now but we usually just pile in the fruit and then pour the water in. The fruit pretty much just floats in the water and infuses it but with this pitcher from Gear Ultimate the fruit is in the infuser compartment from top to bottom which infuses the water more quickly.

I love that this also comes with ice insert so if you just want ice water or even cold sun tea this will be perfect and won't dilute your drink.

This pitcher has a really nice look that can be taken out and actually served right to your guests. Very pretty and decorative serving pitcher.



The Gear Ultimate Infuses Water Picture can be found on Amazon.

PinPix

Are you looking for a really nice bulletin board for your office, bedroom, or classroom? Then you might want to check out PinPix from Art for Frames which you can find in several colors and sizes. If you go to Art for frames website you can even order personalized bulletin boards. Myself I am thinking really nice Christmas gifts that can be useful art.

These bulletin boards come packaged really well. I thought I was getting an expensive piece of art when it was delivered but nope just the bulletin board so right away this company was making an impression on me.

Once we opened the box and took out the bulletin boards I was in love. They come with everything you need to hang this on your wall, and even a package of pushpins. With self healing technology where the holes heal themselves this is an awesome product. Our girls loved checking on the holes in two days to see how much they healed.

Now of course I have two girls who each want one of these plus me being the mom having my heart set on putting one in my computer room, so I am thinking ordering some for gifts for Christmas just has to happen this year so everyone is happy.

The PinPix bulletin boards can be found on Amazon in several colors and shapes.



What Art to Frames has to say about their product.

• PinPix is a patent-pending canvas bulletin board created with self-healing technology that limits wear and tear when pricked. 

PinPix boards are made from high quality canvas with beautiful designs you will be proud to display anywhere in your home.

Prick the canvas with a pin to display a recipe, photo, note or clipping.

Remove the pin and within the space of 48 hours the holes will partially repair themselves due to the self-healing quality of the canvas!

Mimosa and Apple Champagne

Our family is big on burning candles both for the scent and for the lovely glow they give a room. Very calming. Ocotillo South West did a really nice job of packaging these candles, they came safe and sound. I really like that they included a little charm on each candle container which makes it great for splitting up for two gifts if you would like to. We are going to save the charms to put on our Christmas tree.

It also came with a wick key which I really like, this is the first time we have ever worked with one and I am very impressed. You just push the wick down into the wax to distinguish and then pull the wick back out for a smokeless way to put out your candle. All that is left is the scent from the candle not the flame being put out. Love this.

They each come with a screw on top and the scents well they are amazing. I wasn't so sure about the Mimosa I was more interested in the Champagne Apple. Turns out I love the Mimosa better then my trusted apple scent which is amazing in itself, but the Mimosa really surprised me.

These are great for gifts, or for use in your own home.

The Ocotillo South West Candles can be found on Amazon in several scents.


What Ocotillo South West has to say about their product.

We pride ourselves in using only the highest quality fragrances or essential oils in a soy/paraffin wax blend which creates a beautiful smelling, long-burning candle (40 + hours each).  The wicks are all natural fiber and metal free. Our Spring collection has "Mimosa", a fabulous grapefruit-citrus fragrance, and the other candle is "Champagne Apple”, a wonderful crisp green apple scent.  These are the perfect fragrances and colors for spring and summer.   They arrive in a charming gift box and include a wick dipper for smokeless extinguishing.  This is the perfect set for Mother's Day or any occasion!
