STRAPLESS?

We have a golf bag that needed a new strap. I thought this would be perfect. But before I could mention it to my husband, he immediately thought of a different purpose for this military grade replacement strap.  The strap was perfect for his rifle.  He had had an olive green one but now he has one to match his rifle.  He removed the removable cushioned pillow because he didn't need it for this application.  The strap ended up to be a perfect replacement. The strapping is durable and the clips and links are sturdy and strong.

JUST DUCKY!

Years ago they had a song called 'Rubber Duckie' that would go round and round in my head like a broken record.  My kids loved the duck game at the carnivals and fairs. Ducks are cute and wonderful.  This duck is a nylon bag to hold the soft ducks after a bath.  It's bright and attractive so that the children will even play a duck game by tossing the ducks into the hole of the bag.  The bag attaches to the side of the tub or the enclosure, with 2 suction cups at the top of the back.  There's also a mesh pocket on the back of the head to hold the baby soap. It's like a momma duck and her ducklings stored in her pouch!

IT'S LASHABLE!

As you age, your hair is lost in places that you want to keep it and you get hair where you don't want it.  My eyelashes are thinning and I have to watch out for chin hair!  This Infinity product came in the mail and I couldn't wait to try it.  The first time I used the product, I didn't follow the directions correctly so I had a mixed result. The next time, I followed what the paper said and I got the results below. As I get more adept at applying the fibers, I think I will get better results.  It works well. I need to make sure that I apply the gel evenly so that the fibers don't start to fall on my face during the day.  All in all, it's a great product for thin or short eyelashes.

IT'S CHARMING!

This is a sweet little lion charm that is made out of stainless steel.  It is similar to the Pandora style charms. There are 2 spacers that come with the charm in a nice velvety storage bag.  It would be simple to add the charm to a bracelet or use it make a necklace. Of course, the company has many other additional pieces, such as colored stones and more charms, so that you can make a full bracelet or add to the charm in a necklace design.

OUT OF NECESSITY!

Last year my mom was hospitalized due to a severe leg injury. I grabbed my belongings, left work and headed to the ER for what I didn't know would take most of the day and into the night.  Of course, I brought my cell phone and called my sister in Florida, my husband, relatives, work, and friends, also surfing the web to find out more medical advice for definitions of medical terms.  After about 3 hours, I noticed that my battery was draining fast. Did I have one of these in my purse? No. A friend of mine happened to call and they picked up mine from work, so I could charge my phone. Good thing, too, because I was there for another 8 hours.  Now, this one is going in my purse and staying there. You never know! Works great and charges my phone without a problem.

NEED CABLE?

I am always running out of USB cables for my husband's phone and my Kindle.  That darn cat likes to chew the cords until the wires are showing.  Most of the ones she has chewed, were the plastic coated type that came with the electronic.  These cables have a heavy duty covering that isn't easily chewed. I also liked the fact that there are 3 different lengths.  The shorter one fits perfectly by my desktop computer so that there isn't a long cord in the way of my keyboard and mouse.  I think this seller has a great product for the price.

IT'S ESSENTIAL!

It ancient times, jewelry had specific purposes other than accenting clothes with beauty. I'm so glad that the return of jewelry that is pretty and has a purpose of emitting healing fragrances into the air.  This necklace is one of those. It opens like a locket and inside there is a felt pad on which you can place your favorite essential oil. Mine is lavender because it is a soothing scent.  Other oils are tea tree, that helps to keep away mosquitoes and eucalyptus which helps me when I have a stuffy nose. The chain is long enough so that on my short frame it comes midway on my chest.  There are also extra colored felt disks to complement my wardrobe.  Great product.

HAVE WINE, WILL CARRY!

This bottle carrier is perfect for transporting your wine to a picnic or party.  Made of a durable foam product that will protect the wine from heat or cold and keep it at the temperature you want until you are ready to indulge.  The built-in handle makes it convenient to carry. The design fits in with my style of accessories and the protective binding is stitched to the carrier securely.  The rounded bottom will fit snugly to any bottle.  Comes in a set of 3.

MULTI-PURPOSE SAFETY!

This is a very important tool to have in your car in a bug-out bag.  It doesn't just check the air pressure in your tires.  If you were ever in an automobile accident or came upon one, you would be able to cut the seat belt with the cutter part.  There is also a built in window hammer on the back side of the cutter that flips up when you need to break a window to get in or out.  There is a red LED light and a flash light in the head of the unit. For such a little handheld unit, it will be useful in an emergency. The tire pressure reading is on the window display and turns off after 90 seconds.

WATER IT DOWN!

I think the worst part of using a garden hose is rolling it back up so that you can use it properly the next time.  The plastic or rubber hoses are very hard to handle for a small person. This garden kit has a hose that expands and lengthens when the water is turned on and then when the pressure is released the hose shrinks back into itself. It maintains a light weight as you use it and storage is not a problem with this handy hose hanger. We were able to just hang it on the chain link fence and not have to install it on our house. The hanger has a handle at the top and an opening to fit right into the fence.  Included in the kit is a set of gardening gloves with rubberized/plastic coated palms.  The spray nozzle is fully adjustable and extra hose washers are included. Great product just in time for spring and summer outdoor needs.

LICENSED TO DRIVE!

It's not that I want people to think that I drive new cars all the time, but I don't really want to advertise for years that I bought it at a used car lot.  The is license plate frame accents the black on my bumper better than the plastic one that came from the dealer.  It is metal but with a nice powder black finish.  All of the washers, screws, spacers and a Phillips head tool come with the 2 holders. Easy to follow picture directions show the use for each part.  They are so nice that they are staying on my car!

ARE YOU KNEE-DY?

A long, long, time ago, I can still remember...well, that's a song but I remember the day my husband fell from a ladder and his knee landed on a tree stump.  Not a good day!  It is decades later and he has a hard time walking for a distance without the knee throbbing and feeling weak.  When I received these knee sleeves, I knew he had to give them a try.  Mind you, he only needs the one, but they are able to fit either leg so he can wear one out and then use the other one.  They are quality made and detailed.  The compression fit lends a lot of support to the joint and are comfortable enough to wear under his jeans or slacks.  A great product for runners, too.

HOME SWEET HOME!

This is a stunning accent to any home for looks and for humidifying the air.  I love that the top is made out of a gorgeous shade of blue.  If you don't want the blue, it has multiple colors that you can change to while it is diffusing the essential oil.  It operates quietly.  The directions are easy to follow. The bottom part and reservoir are made of plastic and easily cleaned after use. If you don't want the light on, that is an option, too. One thing that impressed me is that it starts immediately upon pressing the on button.  My house smells so nice.

A PLEASANT DRIVE!

 Tired of the closed up winter drives to and from work? Me, too. My car smells fresh after I just clean it but the odor becomes stale and the air can be just 'car' smell.  I got this lovely little car diffuser for essential oils.  It just plugs into the cigarette lighter with a USB adapter or if you already have a permanent USB plug, then you're all set.  The unit uses a small amount of water and a few drops of your favorite essential oil (lavendar).  I just plugged it in and immediately I had the wonderful fresh smelling vapor rolling through my car.  I love the colored light feature, too.  Very easy to clean and the instructions are very self-explanatory.

A CELL TO GO!

This is a very elegant magnetic cell phone holder for my car.  I have a BMW and the only holders that I could get locally were made of black plastic and rubber.  This one is a gold tone metal and is very heavy duty.  There are adhesive strips to attach the base to the dash or whatever area you want to position the phone. A metal plate goes on your phone. I put mine behind the protective cover for my phone. Just insert the swivel into the base and place your phone on top and the magnet inside the swivel will keep your phone in place while you drive.

HAVE UMBRELLA, WILL TRAVEL!

This has got to be one of the coolest umbrellas that I've seen in a while.  It has ample space and of course, I like the black color.  It's so basic.  Once you unstrap the part that protects you from the rain and press the button on the handle to open the top, it's there. The umbrella pops right open.  Press the button again and the umbrella will fold back in again and then you pull it back into the handle to collapse the umbrella for storage.  Comes with a nice zippered storage bag, too, that makes it easy to stash in your car pocket or travel bag.

IN THE PINK, BRACE, THAT IS!

My morning workout includes the 'dreadmill', I mean treadmill.  I like to do interval running/walking for around 10 minutes each morning.  At night, I try to walk for 30 minutes.  My treadmill is an older one with little spring on the belt, causing my knees to feel a bit uncomfortable. These knee supports are a perfect solution to support my joints.  They are thickly padded on the front and the whole strap is covered in a velcro type loop so the straps can adjust to the circumference of the area below the knee. I had to overlap the straps and they held securely.  These will make a difference for me when I run or walk. Joint injury is not something I want to deal with.  The package says to hand wash and air dry.  They appear to be of a fabric that dries quickly.
