Decorative Bowl Review

Recently I was able to review a really nice bowl. It is decorative and made from thick aluminum. I am really impressed with this bowl and everyone who has seen it falls in love. Right now we are keeping candy in it which really gets it seen by visitors. It stands out and has found a place at the edge of our entertainment center as you enter our living room.

I love how versatile it is and that it will go with most decor be it your living room, kitchen, dining room, or when you are entertaining. The measurements for this are 6"x 6"x 4" and holds 14 fluid ounces. You can see in the picture above just a few examples of how this bowl can be used.

This would make a great wedding, housewarming, or hostess gift. My readers can get an extra 10% off (can change at any time) with code INYOLIVE

Fun Confetti Balloons

Love these balloons. Easy to blow up with the attached blow piece which is great for those who fight to blow up balloons like myself. Usually I have to get help to blow balloons up but not with these. This is a 15 piece set of 12 inch balloons filled with confetti. Great for pretty much any kind of party. Think New Years! Kids will love popping these and having the confetti fly everywhere.

I like that I can use the mouth pieces over again for other balloons we might have. I do have a few words of caution. I did find while blowing these up that smaller pieces of confetti can end up in your mouth so be aware so that if you have children helping you are close by.

To get the confetti to stick to the balloons like you see in the top picture I find that rubbing the outside of the balloon creates enough static to hold the confetti in place so that you have a more even look, instead of the confetti just laying at the bottom of the balloon like in my pictures. It was a bit of trial and error to figure it out but thought I would save my readers the time.

Every man needs a black tie

My husband has several job where he had to wear a tie, but he would rather be in shorts and a t-shirt everyday because that is what makes him feel comfortable. Now that he is out of jobs where he has to wear a tie, for the now being anyways he takes full advantage of shorts and t-shirts.

Sadly deaths happen as well as Happy Weddings. Places ties are expected and sometimes needed depending on the part you play in each one.

Lately we have had a few scares with death and this week alone we had two deaths, one a family member on my side and another one is a dear friends husband who passed too soon.

My husband hasn't gotten in a tie or for that matter even dress pants in years so he is not even sure he will fit his pants or shirts but is going to try. If not he wears shorts and a t-shirt and then once we can a visit to the store for a new suit  just in case another wedding or funeral comes along.


My husband really likes the quality of this tie and we were both surprised to see that it also comes with a tie clip which is also very nice. Gives your tie that extra little zing when you need it.

You can purchase the black silk tie on Amazon.
