Enstrom GIVEAWAY & Review

Photobucket

Time to move onto today's giveaways! The first giveaway I have for you today is from a company called Enstrom who makes all sorts of delicious gourmet treats.For my review I received a one-pound box of Enstrom's Almond Toffee.



Can I just say 'WOW best toffee I have ever had' & have that be my review? That statement is quite true I was excited when my package arrived because if anyone really knows me they will know that I love almonds & cashews so I was more than happy to accept this review.This toffee breaks easily so that you can have small portions at a time,just by the texture you can tell it will be delicious,I honestly can't describe how good this toffee was it was mouth watering,melted like chocolate & has yummy almonds it was more than I could have imagined.It didn't stick to my teeth at all & tasted yummy my DH liked it as well which was a surprise because he doesn't normally like sweets like that,Surprisingly we actually made this box last more than a week in our house even with visitors.Besides Toffee Enstrom also sells other goodies feel free to check out their site.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used.

Photobucket

Now onto todays first Review & then onto the really good stuff! The giveaways I have two of them for you tonight & I hope you enjoy them both.The first company I want to share with you tonight is called Little One Books, I really love working with this company I have worked with them once in the past & have had fantastic results.I am not only here to present you with a Review but a giveaway as well.



For my review I receive a book called "The Hat" here is a little about the book from the Little One Books Website: "When Lisa's woolen stocking flies off the clothesline, Hedgie finds it and pokes his nose in. He tries to pull it off, but the stocking won't budge -- and so the fun begins as six noisy farm animals laugh at Hedgie, especially when he tries to pretend that he's wearing a new hat. In the end, it's the clever hedgehog who gets the last laugh when the animals reappear looking proud and silly with all sorts of winter clothing on their heads. But where is Lisa when all of this is going on? She's in the borders, getting ready for winter until she realizes her stocking is gone and she enters the story to find it." I highly enjoy this book & my daughter enjoys having it read to her,The photos in the picture are great the Hedge hog in the story is super adorable as well as the other animals,All of the illustrations are wonderful & in full color,the story really brings the feel of winter to you as you read the story it is very heart warming & nice to read a great family tale for the whole family. You will also have a chance to win a copy for yourself =] Little one books also has tons of other books for different ages & different reasons they also offer DVD's,& CD's plus more feel free to visit their site & have a look around. ****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used.

OrlyDesigns GIVEAWAY & Review

Buying handmade items is not only much more personal than A store bought gift but they also last a lot longer than store made items because they aren't being pumped out by a machine that is programed to do so.I personally own a ton of handmade items including most of my makeup collection which I love to pieces.



The second shop I would like to present you with today is called OrlyDesigns Who makes Bird Sculptures & Ceramic wedding cake toppers,For my review I received Two birds sitting on a stone one of the birds is red & the other is blue,When this arrived at my house I was unsure what it was because of the packing it wasn't something I expected it was a rather cute gift box.Inside the sculpture was wrapped quite nicely though I think one of the birds did break off but it was an easy fix once I realized that it was in fact supposed to be attached to the stone itself.The birds are adorable & a great size the birds are small enough to fit into the palm of your hand.The birds are smooth & glossy the tail & beak is sculpted into a point but the tips are rounded off so they wont hurt if you touch them.I have enjoyed working with this seller.

My Tot Clock GIVEAWAY & Review

Ready for some more fun Giveaway action? Finding toys that are both fun & educational for my daughter is high on my priorities list so I was happy to work with a company called My Tot Clock on both a Review & a Giveaway.



For my Review I received a My Tot Clock for my daughter,I think the clocks are very adorable they have an interchangeable story card so that your clock will play new stories,Not only does the My Tot clock tell stories at bed time,It sings,It rings & has different lights for the various settings It also has timers & alarms,If your child needs 'Time out' you can place the red light on & set the timer,The blue light means bed time,Yellow means wake up & green is Encouragement time.Some other fun features this clock has is the face plate is interchangeable & it has both a manual & digital clock on it.My daughter has enjoyed the time she had with this clock unfortunately it fell off of our Kitchen counter onto the floor & stopped working though my daughter does still play with it because she uses the buttons to name colors & we have her point to the numbers & say what they are.This clock is very helpful & educational for Toddlers & young children this clock can help them fall asleep at night & know when its okay to get up in the morning that way they are not getting up at 5am & waking mommy/daddy up.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used.

Japonesque Baby Review

Ready for another fun filled day of giveaways? Before I start into today's giveaways I do have a giveaway I would like to share with all of you.As many of you know every once in a while I work with a company called Japonesque,I recently had a wonderful chance to review part of their new collection of Baby Care Items.To help them promote their new Line I will be posting pictures & full details of these items because it is a brand NEW line.



For my review I received A First Aid Safety Scissors which have a monkey on them,A Duck Safety Nail Clipper & File,A Alligator Gentle Grooming baby comb & a Kangaroo Safety Nail Scissors & file.These products are so unbelievably cute I wish I had products like these when my daughter was still a tiny baby I can still use them now as well but these would have been a great gift to get at my baby shower.Here are some descriptions for each product: Monkey First Aid Safety Scissors "First Aid Safety Scissors are handcrafted to remove Medical bandages quickly & accurately,So you feel prepared in any situation.These professional Quality scissors feature a protective blade covering as well as a cute & protective case,Which keep blades locked when not in use,for complete safety." Duck Safety Nail Clipper & File 'These clippers are designed to trim baby's fingernails tear free,so you can clip confidently with easy & precision every time.This miniature clipper fits little fingernails & toes perfectly & features a comfortable grip & thumb lever for easy manuring.A nail file is also included to gently shade & smooth sharp nail edges after clipping,These clippers are designed in the shape of an adorable yellow duck.",Alligator Gentle Grooming baby comb " This adorable baby comb features rounded plastic teeth that glide gently through baby;s fine hair.This cute alligator shaped comb comfortable removes tangles with ease for soothing care of baby's hair & scalp." Kangaroo Safety Nail Scissors "This Nail scissors & file are designed especially for baby's delicate nails.The small scissors feature comfortable plastic handles & precise stainless steel blades with rounded tips for safety.The baby nail file should be used after clipping to gently shape & smooth rough edges.Both tools can also be used for toenails.A cute compact & protective plastic case is also included for storage"



BUT there are many things that these descriptions don't tell you about these adorable products so I will list them here for you now.The Kangaroo Safety Nail Scissors Has a protective case shaped like a Mother kangaroo with a small pouch which has a baby in it,but if you were just looking at it in a package you might not be able to tell that the baby kangaroo inside of the mothers pouch is actually the Nail file which is attached with a small rubber attachment so that you do not lose the nail file.The Monkey First Aid Safety Scissors has a protective cover that locks onto the scissors when not in use so that little hands can not open them if they manage to get a hold of them.The Duck Safety Nail Clipper & File is an adorable little duck the Nail file is on the bottom of the duck & the clippers are inside of the ducks mouth you simply remove the bill to reveal the clippers.The Alligator Gentle Grooming is the perfect size to hold in adult hands & toddler hands who know how to brush their own hair.I think all of the products are super cute & helpful when it comes to toddler grooming I would buy this product lines for Christmas gits & baby shower gifts they are friendly for both genders they also offer a Giraffe shaped hair shears,A Hippio gently grooming baby brush & two other nail clippers/file combos shaped like a Penguin & the other is a Dolphin.I really enjoy working with this company their shipping is always fast & customer service is friendly.****This was not a paid post and my honest opinion was used.
