Getting Organized With Accessories Organizer

barbara

While I was out looking for custom car seat covers for my dad’s car,  I stumbled upon a very nice jewellery organizer at Diva.  If you do not know already, Diva is my favourite shop to go to for accessories.  This Australian brand has a huge range of affordable and cool accessories for women.    I have been on a lookout for an organizer to keep all my accessories.  They are all in a box right now and it is pretty difficult for me to choose what I want to wear.  So, having an organizer is just great.  I cannot seem to find the organizer on Diva’s website.  Here is a similar one which I saw at Amazon.  I cannot wait to sort out my accessories.

 

Organic Bug Repellent Serum

If you are looking for a bug repellant spray to keep you away from the nasty mosquitoes, well you may want to take a look at the Intelligent Nutrients Certified Organic Bug Repellent Serum from Spirit Beauty Lounge.  This perfume is made to attract human and at the same time repel stinging or biting insects.  It has a skin-loving and non-greasy combination of oils that conditions and softens while providing moisture resistance.

Heading to the beach this summer?  Well, here is something that you may want to bring along.  It is the Saress Beach Cover Up that is very easy and flattering to wear.   No fasteners, ties or knots are required.  You can just simply slip the Saress around the back, thread the opposite arms through the loops and you are set to go.  It only takes a few seconds to look stunning at the beach.   The Saress is made from a cool and crease-free fabric which allows the wearer to move with ease and confident.   Check it out at Sarees.com.

 

Want A Facebook Ice-cream?

Everyone is into Facebook right now. A clever designer just invented the Facebook Ice-cream dubbed “The Face cream”. The Croatian designer just turned the iconic logo into a lip-smacking treat.

It certainly looks delicious. Want to take a bite out of Facebook? Unfortunately, this is only a concept. I cannot wait for this to be real as I want to know how it taste like.  I hope the ice-cream companies are taking note of this.

Cotton Candy Tin Holders

I am loving these cute Cotton Candy Design Tin Holders from Pearl Rivers.  These brightly coloured tins have a vintage touch to it.   When I was little, I wish to have one of these to keep my coins, hair clips or some treasured knick-knacks.   You can also get them to store tea, coffee or sugar.  Perhaps you may want to get a few of these tin holders to decorate your kitchen too.  How endearing, right?

 

Temporary Tattoos For Children

I came across this very useful tattoo kit at  Tottoos.org.  You can temporarily stamp your child with your contact info, especially when you send them to the camp or outings with friends.   The convenient kit comes with 2 sets of 15 custom tottoos.  Make a great gift too.

Pretty Toilet Rolls

 I was at the Bead store supplier’s place yesterday and decided to use the bathroom.   I was pleasantly surprised to see her cute toilet paper.  It was in a funky print of hearts.  She told me that she got them from The Designer Toilet Roll Company in UK.  Well, I really don’t mind getting some for my bathroom too.  Why go for boring toilet papers when you can get Colourful Hearts, Cheeky Chicken or Beautiful Butterflies print eh? These toilet rolls are made with safe, colorfast vegetable-oil based-ink.  Can’t wait to beautify my bathroom with them.


 

I am A Pinaholic

Did I mention that I love Pinterest?  I can actually spend hours just browsing this site.  I bet all Pinterest fans do that.  With 15 Boards and 890 pins, I am a Pinaholic.  You can find virtually anything in Pinterest such as Film, Fitness, Technology and even what is the best cable tray. Besides fashion and food recipes, my favourite category is craft.  There is virtually nothing that these creative people cannot do.  I get so inspired seeing all the wonderful crafts pinned in this virtual board. I have been looking for Teacher’s Appreciation gift ideas and I found these at Pinterest.

 

Scrap Trap

Here is something that I really need in the kitchen – The Scrap Trap from Taylor Gifts.  The Scrap Trap helps to keep the counter and sink clear while we prepare food.  All those peelings, shells, scraps and more can be easily scrape into the bin for quick garbage collection or composting.   This plastic bin holds up to 2 quarts and can be easily clipped onto any standard drawer or cabinet door.   It is dishwasher safe too.

 

Cute Gift Packaging For Parties

My daughter’s birthday is coming up next month.  I have been cracking my head on what to do for her birthday.  Though there won’t be a big celebration, I would still buy her a cake and prepare some goodie bags for her friends.  So, the hubs has been looking around for digital recorders just so that he can capture the birthday celebration and I have been busy looking around for gift packaging.   Found a few lovely items from Sur La Table.
