Shaving in style

Growing up I always love to watch my father shave his face. Watching movies you will see bathrooms with straight razers, leather straps, shaving brushes, shaving soap, and fancy cups to keep the shaving soap in. That is the kind of bathroom I want minus the straight razor of course. 

So I was finally able to score my husband a nice Badger Hair Shaving Brush to complete the bathroom set I was hoping for. OK we still need shaving soap but for not my husband is happy using shaving cream. 

Easy to use, super soft, rinses well, and looks fantastic. 

You can find this Badger Hair shaving brush on Amazon.

What Estilo has to say about their product.

Shaving Brush generate a wonderful, creamy, rich and warm lather. The densely filled brush head is ideal for holding and distributing lather. Helps soften and raise beard while gently exfoliating the skin in preparation for a close, comfortable shave. This is the ultimate shaving brush! Directions: Moisten face with warm water to soften hairs. Wet shaving brush, shake off excess water, and rotate brush over shaving soap to create desired amount of lather. Apply lather in a circular scrubbing motion to shaving area. PLEASE NOTE, that as with all genuine badger hair brushes, slight shedding may occur during the first few times in use.

Storage Wardrobe Closet

We live in a big house, our bedroom is upstairs but now that we are both disabled it is really hard sometimes to make it upstairs to even clean, and worse to even get in bed sometimes. We have really thought about moving but it is not an option at this time. So we thought we would change our computer room back into a bedroom so that we would have a backup bedroom downstairs just in case.

Sadly the bedroom downstairs only has a small closet so this Storage wardrobe closet from Ohuhu is the perfect item to add space for clothing. Great for making a closet in a bedroom or room that does not have any. Can be used for out of season clothes if you change out your wardrobe with the seasons.

Also great for those who craft , sew, or knit. You can store your products neatly inside with all of the cubbies, hanging space, etc. Just roll down the cover when not in use and all is neat and tidy.

Pretty easy to put together, and looks really nice once set up.  The only thing I can think of that would make this better would be for wheels to be attached to the bottom so you can move it around easier.

You can find this wardrobe closet on Amazon.

Composting Made Easy

We compost our products, from kitchen waste, dryer lint, newspapers, leaves, garden plants at the end of the season, etc. With that we have been building a compost pile which we use for our garden.
Most people who compost will have a bowl or container on their kitchen counter or somewhere near to store their compostable products.

In the summer months you deal with fruit flies, smells, etc if the bowl or container is not emptied out daily or washed. Our daughter would usually take out the bowl when it was pretty much overflowing which in the summer she would be reminded with fruit flies, and a very yucky smell.

When I saw this compost pail we just had to give it a try. and try it we did. Heaven pure heaven. Has a pretty big area for storage so it can last a few days depending on kitchen use, a sturdy handle for carrying it back and forth to the compost pile. No more broken handles from the ice cream containers we were using.

This also has a top that keeps out the fruit flies and other crawlies. It has a charcoal filter which keeps smells pretty much none existent. I love that it has a top because now my daughter knows if the top doesn't fit on then it needs to be emptied. No more overflowing bowls on my counter.

Last but not least this looks great on my counter top. No more ugly bowls or ice cream containers. This compost pail truly fits our family to a tee.

You can find the Estilo Stainless Steel compost pail on Amazon.

Stainless Steel Compost Pail provides temporary storage for fruit & vegetable peels, eggshells, coffee grounds, tea bags and other kitchen scraps to transfer to garden composter.

Aleratec 2-in-1 Tablet Stand/Hand Strap Holder

I have a case I really like but it is getting worn out fast from constant use. I have been eyeing a new case I hope to get soon, but a nice alternative until my case comes in is the Aleratec 2-in-1 Tablet Stand/Hand Strap Holder. This is really nice.

I love how versatile this is, works for both people who are left handed as well as right handed which is really important since my husband is left handed and we have one child that is ambidextrous.

Once I get my new case this will still be used for when I need my ipad mini to be standing up or when I am reading a book online. This is a perfect way to read online books, magazines, and even video tape events around you.

Very easy to install, sturdy, comfortable fit for hand, and leaves the camera unblocked for use when ever you need it. Different elastics are included to get the right fit on your tablet from 7 to 10 inches.

Foot and Shoe Odor Elimantor

The first thing you smell when using this is the scent of clove, peppermint, and tree oil all combined into one yummy smelling product. Ok maybe not yummy but it sure does smell great. As for those stinky sneakers of my husbands? Well they are a thing of the past.

Great for both feet and shoes this makes an awesome product for those with stinky feet, or shoes. Runners, hikers, farmers, athletes, teens, etc. Keep a bottle by your entrance way for those who take their shoes off and a bottle in your sports bag. This is a nice size bottle that will last a while. I have to say this is my favorite odor eliminator scent for shoes so far.
