Fabulous Finds!

1 comments
http://www.spoonsisters.com/ is an online gift shop offering a mix of unique products for adults and kids, males and females, young and old! Their products range from classic to kitsch, funny to functional. I personally loved the following...

Bibs to Go

The playful bibs in this tear off pad will keep baby clean and smiling! Constructed of a waterproof disposable material, the bibs are easy to secure with seals included with the pad.

It's a wonderful gift for new Grandparents -special treat bibs when little ones visit- or simply keep a set in the car to use when dinning out with baby in restaurants.

20 full color bibs to a pad –four designs with five of each style. The pad measures 9 ¼ inches x 12 ½ inches. Ages 0-3.

Deluxe Lunch Boxes
This box is form and function to the optimal. It's based on a "stacked" design that prevents food from being tossed around, thanks to the 4 small and 1 large container that fit comfortably inside the box. Plus the lid of the box, which is super secure, is shaped to keep a bottle in place, under the elastic strap. Remove the strap and you can immerse the entire unit in soapy water or it's dishwasher safe on the top rack.

This box is not just for kids, it's for anyone who likes to take lunch with them. All materials are food safe and kid-friendly: made from BPA-free and phthalate-free polypropylene safety tested for lead. Containers can be used in the microwave.

Clocky - The Alarm Clock that Runs Away and Hides (LOL i love this)

Clocky gives you ONE chance to get up. If you choose to snooze, believe it or not, Clocky will jump right off your night table (up to 3 feet) and wheel around your bedroom looking for a place - far away from your bed- to hide, beeping all the while, before sounding his alarm again. And, yes, you WILL have to get out of bed to silence his alarm.

The snooze time can be set from 0-9 minutes, so if you set it at "0" Clocky immediately "runs" away. If you want Clocky to be just like every other alarm clock on the block, and stay put on your night table, simply disable his wheels. Moves on wood or carpet.

Easy Fold Step StoolThis folding step stool is great for getting to those hard to reach places in the kitchen or closets, to help kids reach the bathroom sink or throw in the back of your RV. When not in use it folds flat and the top morphs into a convenient carry handle. This ez fold step stool can support up to 300 pounds.

To Do Tattoo
Here’s a tongue in check tribute to anyone who’s ever scribbled a reminder on their hand or wrist. (Would that be JUST about everybody?) This To Do Tattoo kit includes 12 graphic “To Do” forms that you can apply to your body, wherever it’s most convenient or creative, and a skin-safe washable ink gel pen. You’ll never again have to make lame excuses for missing bowling night, forgetting your Mom’s birthday or coming home from the supermarket without the olives!

Vertical space solutions for your kitchen

0 comments
Utensils are easy to find and never out of reach when hung on "S" hooks from a rod above the cooktop. No need to buy an expensive storage system -- a simple towel rack, tension rod, or dowel can be mounted near the food-prep area.
Keep sharp utensils stored in a stainless-steel box mounted on the side of a counter or island, and they'll always be easy to find. Consider putting the box inside an upper cabinet door if your household includes small children.
Built into a tall, wide stainless-steel backsplash, a roomy shelf and a row of utensil hooks provide on-location storage that doesn't block ventilation.
If you don't have a spot for a wall- or ceiling-mount pot rack, recast one or two base cabinets flanking the range. This narrow compartment is just wide enough for favorite pots and pans, which hang from "S" hooks that fit a track on the pullout rack. Cookie sheets and fold-away roasting and cooling racks are also naturals to store in a narrow space.

Decorating a teenager's bedroom

2 comments
When decorating teenagers' bedrooms, we should put in mind the fact that their age is really sensitive, that they're going through many physical and emotional changes and that they're trying to figure out who they are and what they want to become.

They have enough issues to deal with so instead of giving them a hard time, parents should allow their teens to express their personalities, interests and tastes through their bedroom decorations. Let them choose the color, theme and style even if you hate it! Afterall, it's their hide out, their space and it should reflect their individuality and creativity.

Consider it a great chance to work together as a team. Make a few key decisions together regarding color, prints and decorative accents but make sure that your teen plays the predominant role in making such decisions. This will definitely help build up your teen's confidence.

A little tip: The most important element in a teen's bedroom- in my openion- is the STORAGE SOLUTIONS! Teens usually have alot of CDs, magazines, toys, books, electronics, makeup, clothes, shoes, bags...etc. If your teen prefers having everything out where he/she can see it, then use open storage solutions like shelves, bookcases, wall cubes, organization boards and hooks. If he/she prefers everything neat and hidden, use closed storage solutions like under-the-bed storage bins, corner cabinets, drawer units and baskets.

Pottery Barn came up with a fun line of exclusive furniture and accessories created just for teenagers. So cool!

I always lose my keys at the most inappropriate moment! When I come home, I just toss my keys somewhere and I would totally forget where i left them and have to search for them later when I'm in a hurry to go out! I hate it!

But now I don't think I will ever forget my keys again with these human key holders! What a cool idea!
