organize your shower without a rusty wire caddy :: shower surfer review
Our wire shower caddy was not working out for us. Not only did our things not fit well, but my razor was always precariously balanced and inevitably ended up on the shower floor. Yes, bending down to pick up a razor isn’t a huge deal, but I don’t want my kids accidentally cutting themselves. And,…
wear your heart on your sleeve with phebe-n-me :: #springfashion

submariners from babiators for swim time fun :: review + giveaway

discover a new path to clean :: review + giveaway
There are so many different cleaning products out there, but one thing many of them have in common is that there is a lot of water or filler in the bottle of soap or cleaner that you buy. I was introduced to Cleanpath products, and I liked the concept they offered so I thought I…
fresh wave :: remove and neutralize odor :: review + giveaway
There are a lot of stinky people and circumstances that inhabit our home. It’s not as bad as growing up with 4 brothers, but there are times that I have flashbacks to my childhood of boy smells. Diapers, burned soup, overflowing toilets, and disgusting trash cans are just a few of the causes of bad…
