Bumble Road

One of my favorite ways to relax in the evening is to take a nice warm bath. While in the tub I usually read, watch a movie, or just sit back and unwind with a cup of tea. In my water I like to use bath oils, bubble baths, and Bath Bombs like these from Bumble Road. These Bath Bombs are made with epsom salts and essential oils for a nice relaxing scented bath.

Bath bombs are great because you can just add them to the water and they do all the work on their own. They are also fun to watch or play with while they are fizzing in the tub. These bath bombs do color the water slightly but so far have not stained my tub that is a big thing to take into consideration. 

With this set you get 4 different scents to keep for yourself or give as a gift. You can even split them up and make 4 gifts out of them by designing a basket around each scent or color. 

The Bumble Road Bath Bombs can be found on my affiliate link below.

My time that I call for myself and which has kept me sane all these years is my bath time in which I read, relax, and unwind from the day. Sometimes I even sneak in a movie or several episodes of a favorite show while relaxing. 

With taking baths I love bubble baths, bath oils, and bath bombs. They just make it that much more of a special time for just me. With that being said the price on these items can get pretty high, so this is where Pinterest comes in. With a simple search for Bath Bombs Recipes this link came up. Filled with simple to more complicated recipes for bath bombs of all sorts. 

Now you just need to have some kind of mold, we have the above bath bomb molds, but you can use cupcake tins, silicone molds, or anything else you would like to use. I want to work on making some for gifts. Like some with little toys that my youngest daughter and oldest grand daughter like. They will get a kick out of finding a hidden surprise inside. 

I like the metal molds the best because they hold up to constant use. These Bath Bomb Molds from WEBSUN come in three sizes 2 inch, 2.5 inches, and 3 inch. I do want to add a larger on later as we get better at making them but these are great to start with. You mix up your recipe then pack each side with the ingredients and then put both molds together tapping lightly all around the mold then carefully open and remove your Bath Bomb.

Our family was able to try Aroma Sense out before hosting this giveaway and we loved the results. This was easy to install, worked great, and we love the way our skin feels. It says it also helps with your hair too but our hair is pretty healthy so not sure if there is a difference or not. This did not change the way our water came out but it does says it cuts consumption by 25% which is great if you are trying to save on the Earth's resources. My winner will have a choice of the one shown or the handheld which can be found here .

MarksvilleandMe would like to thank all of my followers 
and wish all those who enter 

Good Luck!

Bamboo Washcloths

Bamboo washcloths, yes bamboo. I would have never thought of bamboo being used for clothing, washcloths, towels, bedding. I always think of the hard bamboo poles or the bamboo plants, but boy are there bamboo washcloths great.

Much softer then I thought, but have grip for washing your body, face, etc. We put these away for our bathroom, sorry kids but these are for mommy and daddy. We deserve a little luxury from time to time.

These washcloths are a generous 10 by 10 inches and are just the right size for bathing use.

You can find these Bamboo Washcloths on Amazon.


What Estilo has to say about their product.

• Pack of 6 bamboo washcloths. Each cloth measures 10 x 10 inches. Perfect for newborns and adults with sensitive skin or eczema. A great facial cleanser and ideal for bath time. Made of durable, eco-friendly, and antibacterial super soft and absorbent rayon from bamboo & organic cotton blend. 6 individually wrapped pure white.  

Care Instructions and Tips: Machine wash in warm water on the gentle cycle using mild detergent. Do NOT use bleach or fabric softeners as they are not needed or recommended. Tumble dry on low to medium heat. To prevent your cloths from snagging, we recommend that you wash them in plain warm water immediately after purchase. This wash will tighten the weave structure of your towels and substantially diminish snagging. With proper care, your washcloths will stand the test of time and still look and feel wonderful.

Dancing in the Rain

 I have been wanting to try one of these showerheads out so when was given the chance to review one I jumped right on it. It is really easy to install, you do not need the long straight bracket we were able to just attach it our existing shower mount.

I love the way it feels. Having Fibroymyalgia sometimes water from a shower can actually hurt me while I am showering but with this rain fall I don't find that happening which makes showers more enjoyable again.

If you like the feel of dancing in the rain then this might be something you would interested in.

Using and Taking care of Microfiber Cloths

Being a Mother and Perfectionist at heart, although I am working on not putting so much pressure on myself for the later, I have bought other Microfiber Cloths in the past. I usually just use them right out of the package and wash with my regular towels. Wrong in so many ways. 

This is why I didn't like them. When you first get your microfiber cloths was them with a gentle detergent in cold water by themselves, hang to dry (do not use dryer like I have in the past), once dry they are ready to use. Make sure to wash separately and hang to dry each time they need to be cleaned.

Once I got past how to take care of Microfiber cloths I found a new best friend in cleaning. The best part is that you don't even need chemicals to clean with. I suggest if you are using a cleaner to use your old microfiber cloths that have seen better days or other rags around the house. 

What I like about VibraWipe Microfiber Cloths is that they come in 4 different colors so I can have a few for each room I would use them in. For my house I use the green for my kitchen, yellow for my bathrooms, blue for windows, and pink for everything else.

If you have had a bad time with Microfiber Cloths not working for you try following the directions and giving it a go again. You just might find a new best friend in cleaning too. 

You can purchase the Microfiber Cloths on Amazon.


What Vibra Wipe has to say about their product.

8 pieces of VibraWipe Microfiber Cloth, 80% Polyester / 20% Polyamide, 14.20-inch x 14.20-inch. The 4-color economy pack, allows color-coding for various tasks and change of cloths regularly without doing wash. VibraWipe Microfiber Cloths come in pastel colors to reduce color bleeding. 
Every piece of VibraWipe Microfiber Cloth cleans gently, removes dirt and grime like magnet. Super absorbent, holds up to 5-6 times its weight in liquid realistically, based on our testing. Cleans without chemical, leaves lint-free and streak-free results.
VibraWipe addressed the unraveling of stitches, a common problem faced by many consumers, with its rounded corners that are firmly and continuously stitched.
This product receives highly-rated reviews on Amazon.com.
