This white bonded Nylon sewing thread is a very strong durable thread.  This thread is very strong and can be used for many sewing projects especially if you are a hand quilter, I feel it would be great for that. I personally do not recommend it for an embroidery machine. In my opinion it is more of an upholstery type thread. It does have a beautiful shine to it. The spool is large and has lots of thread on it. I am posting a picture for a comparison on the size of the thread.

I did receive this thread at a discounted price for my honest opinion.

I ordered the Clementine Womens Triblend Short-Sleeve T-Shirt in aqua for myself in an X-large and it fit but was very snug. I like my clothes to fit loosely. That being said I had my granddaughter to try it on. She wears a size 8-10.It fit her nicely and she is very pleased with the shirt. 

The fabric is very soft and light weight and the shirt seems to be well made. The sleeves are just the right length  It has a rounded neck which has binding made of the same fabric which scoops down just low enough but not too low. This is a very attractive little shirt. It also seems to be wrinkle free. When it was taken out of the package after being shipped it had no wrinkles and if it was gonna be wrinkled that shipping should of done it.

I did receive this shirt at a reduced price for my honest review.

 ASSEM® Wireless LED Solar Powerd Security Motion Sensor Light is a great light. I put mine on my front steps because the steps are wide and if you come up on them in the night you can easily trip if you are not familiar with the steps. I have the light just laying on the side of the step and all is working great. Last night I went out to take a picture of the light and when I opened the door to go out the light was shining bright as if something had activated it. I look around to see what it was and decided it was my outside dog. No that wasn't it. It had been activated by a frog. Yes you read that right. After carefully examining the situation, I discovered there was a frog just sitting there looking at the light almost as if it was hypnotized. He was not the one that had it activated there was a frog on the opposite  side (the charging end) that had jumped causing the light to be activated. So as you can tell it will be activated with small things.   

The light shines dim once it gets dark and when activated it gets brighter. This light is totally solarized and seems to last most of the night. It does not have an on/off switch that you switch but you turn it upside down to turn it off. Also included is screws to mount it with.

I for one hate the sprays for repelling insects. I cannot stand the feel of it on my skin. More times than one I have refused to be sprayed with the stuff and anyone who has lived in Louisiana will tell you the mosquitos will eat you up if you don't use something to repel them. So when I got the opportunity to review the Mosquito Repellent Bracelet Kit  I was a bit hesitant but am so proud I agreed to give it a try. There was something that needed to be done outside and so I put the bracelet on my wrist and was amazed with it. I did not get bit one time. So for now own when I am working in the yard I will wear mine. These things are great. 

The package includes the bracelet, which can be worn on either the wrist or ankle and a carabiner clip which can be hung on the belt loop or where ever you desire.  Four refills which are supposed to last up to fifteen days. The instructions included are very easy to follow. 

The ingredients are citronella, geranium, peppermint, and lavender.

Tree Wall Decal


I had a hallway wall that was blank and I had thought about putting a tree decal on it for sometime but I didn't want to spend the outrageous price of most of the ones I had found.  When I came across this one I was very pleased with what I was seeing. When I received it I couldn't wait to get it put on the wall. I was a bit insecure with it thinking I would need help for I am short and couldn't see how I could get one of these up  by myself. Well let me tell you it was a breeze. All pieces are in numbered sections in lengths that are easy to handle. I put it up in no time and was very pleased with it. You make sure you match all the sections and do not over-lap them and all is good. When I got the tree itself up, I almost didn't put the leaves on the tree because I liked it so much like that. But I went ahead and put the leaves, bird nest and the birds and wording on it. I did not do the frames for I want more protection for my pictures. These are just vinyl frames that go around a picture.  It also comes with a growth chart that I did not use.

 If you are looking for a tree decal I recommend this one for it is easy to install and is quite large.

Rose Essential Oil


Oh my the Rose Essential Oil is the best. The smell is like going up to the rose bush and breathing in the wonderful aroma of the rose.  This oil is a very good grade of oil.. It actually smells like a rose not something they put in a bottle and tried to make it smell rosey.

The rose essential is an antidepressant and will help if you are having problems with depression. Just put some of this oil in your diffuser and lay down in your bed and it will be like sleeping in a bed of rose petals.  There are many other uses for this oil  to include adding it to your own homemade bath bombs and lotions.
