Shoelaces that Make a Difference

Love these laces. So helpful with me being able to put my own shoes. With having Fibromyalgia the days that I actually wear tie up shoes is limited unless one of my children or husband helps me.

Having to have someone help me put my shoes on was never on my list of to do items. These shoelaces have made a big difference in my quality of life even if only in one area. As I find more products that help me get things done for myself and around the house I feel a little better because I am able to achieve goals that were so easy to do before.

Being disabled is no fun, but there are companies like LemonHero that are out there trying to make this world a little easier to live in with products that help those who are disabled to be able to move forward.

These laces took me a little while to figure out but they really aren't hard to use, just new to me so it took a bit to get them right. They come in 9 colors and I am going to be getting some more so I can wear different shoes more often. Very happy with the results, not too tight, not to lose. Shoes are comfortable and the hold of the shoelaces is easily adjustable.

You can find the LemonHero no tie shoelaces on Amazon in many colors.

Hands Free Dog Leash

I think this is about the neatest thing they have out. I have always seen people walking, jogging, and running with their dogs but thought it would be so much easier if they had their hands free.

This won't quite fit my waist so hoping they will make larger ones even for those who are obese so we can walk our dogs more safely as well.

Other than that my girls are loving this. Even my 7 year old can now walk our Saint Bernard. Easy to put on, and just hook up your dog like you normally wood and you are ready to go.

Hand Pruning Saw

Finally the perfect pruner for the tree out front that the neighbors kids pretty much killed. My husband thought that the tree might just be shocked but of course it wasn't the case and we need to trim off  some more and then he wants to give it another year before we give up on it all of the way.

Easy to use, folds up compactly, and does a great job.

Good for pruning, hunting, hiking, clearing trails, emergencies, etc.

Rechargeable Desk Lamp

Our family loves products that are rechargeable because that means there are less batteries going into landfills or time spent finding out where to drop off our batteries.

Much larger than I thought it would be, works great while I am in bed and my husband is sleeping for either working on the computer or reading, clips to most of the desks in our home. Really fun for a sick child so that they can keep up with their homework if they are bedridden.

Great extra for your college student for late night studying. I love to clip this on my desk in the living room because we have a very dark home, and it never seems to have enough light even in the daytime.

You can find the OxyLED rechargeable desk lamp on Amazon.

Candles make a great gift

One thing our family and most of our friends love are candles. Always a great gift. Scentiments Candles come in a mason jar for the homemade from the heart look. These burn for quite a while and when you are done the jar is reusable, either to make your own candles or to even use for craft items. Some people even like to drink out of mason jars so there is another use for the empty jar when done.

I really like how you can order Happy Birthday Candles, Family, and Friend Candles in different scents to fit the person it is intended for. Cute and whimsical. A gift sure to please.


You can find the Scentiments Candles on Amazon.
