Recession Proof Your Living Room

In the face of a grim economy, consumers are looking for low-budget ways to save on home decorating. As furniture is one of the biggest decorating expenses, replacing a couch or sofa ends up costing hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to replace or fix….until now.



For quick, easy and recession proof ways to update your living room, Sure Fit couch and chair slip covers help transform furniture without breaking the bank or replacing your current furniture.

The Stretch Graham couch slipcover in Chocolate (pictured above) retails for just $129,99 much cheaper than replacing an old couch. This brand new line, available at SureFit.com, Bed Bath and Beyond and Macy’s.com, looks like leather, with the great slipcover feature of stretch, without bearing the hefty price and is also machine washable. A matching dining room chair cover is only $19,99, enabling you to completely re-vamp your living room for $150.00!

With styles including stretch suede, cotton, jacquard, organic cotton, chatham and more, these furniture covers will seamlessly fit into any and all décor. Available in an extensive range of colors and styles, Sure Fit is the recession-proof way to update the look of an aging furniture set.

Review: Simple Green Naturals

Review: I had the opportunity to try out the Simple Green Naturals line, which includes: Naturals Carpet Care, Naturals Glass & Surface Care, Naturals Liquid Hand Soap, Naturals Bathroom Cleaner and Naturals Multi-Surface ($3.99 each).



I couldn't wait to try out the Naturals Carpet Care. Thanks to bambino, our living room carpet had a few hard to get out beverage stains. I sprayed a little bit of this on the tough stains and waited a few minutes for it to penetrate. Then, I gently blotted the spot with a white cloth. While this didn't get the red juice stain out of our carpet, it worked perfectly with the mild stains. I honestly haven't found a carpet cleaner that worked great as this one!



Most traditional hand soaps make my hands dry and some even cause my hands to peel. This one did not do either. It makes my hands feel soft and smelling pretty with natural oil scents of basil oil, orange oil, rosemary oil, sage oil and clary sage oil. The consistency is slightly runnier than your traditional hand soap, but it lathers surprisingly well without any harsh ingredients.



I've tried out a few "green" glass cleaners that weren't worth the hype. However, this one puts the not so green Sparkle to shame. It doesn't leave any smears and it smells great with the subtle scent of rosemary mint.



Cleaning the bathroom is my least favorite chore, but their bathroom cleaner makes the experience easier to tolerate. It didn't take very much of this product or time to get the bathtub sparkling clean. It has a sugar based acid that works flawlessly to remove stubborn grime, alkaline soils and hard water deposits that are found in most bathrooms. Unlike the glass cleaner, the rosemary scent is much more evident and smells better than most of the bathroom cleaners I've used in the past. It is not recommended for limestone, marble or soapstone. Granite is okay.



Their Naturals Multi-Surface has multi-tasked it's way to my heart, cabinets and counters. I'm usually leery of multi-purpose cleaners, but this one actually works. If you're looking for something that will work above and beyond, this is it!



As certified by Green Seal, the five Simple Green Naturals products contain 100% naturally sourced ingredients – no synthetic preservatives, colorants, or fragrances. The ingredients of Simple Green Naturals are derived from sources such as chicory, coconut, corn, palm, minerals, salt and sugar. The scents in Simple Green Naturals are 100% natural essential oils and plant extracts manufactured to the most stringent regulations of the International Fragrance Association, ensuring skin-sensitization does not occur when these products contact skin. Simple Green Naturals contain no animal or animal derived ingredients and the finished products are never tested on animals.

Simple Green has been on the cutting edge of non-toxic, biodegradable, environmentally responsible cleaning products for over 30 years, and will continue to develop new and exciting products for generations to come.

Review: Gold Canyon

About LaTasha Usin: Like most of us, there's nothing more important to her than the time she spends with her family – watching a movie with her mother, enjoying holiday dinners with extended family members, or everyone sharing popcorn during the latest animated DVD release. When she close her eyes and think back on all these memories, she can vividly remember the scent of the recently cut lawn, the soft glow of the candlelight in the dining room, the calm feeling as everyone watches the plot unfold.

For her, that's the essence of living well™! Gold Canyon enhances these moments through its line of great fragrances, scented candles, decorative accessories and more!



Review: I had the opportunity to try out the Clean Sheets tealight candle ($6.98). I've used scents in the past that never lived up to their name or description. However, this candle smells exactly like clean sheets. This serene-like candle has notes of fragrant blossoms and herbs that will make the ambiance of the room welcoming and relaxed. I'd love to try out their scents in the future after hearing so much good about Gold Canyon and finally having a chance to sample their line.

Their tealights come in a set of 9. They also have other noteworthy scents:
Cinnamon Vanilla, Apple Spice, Cinnamon, Spruce & Citrus, Lilac, Fresh Orange, Pomegranate, Mulled Cider, Sugar Cookie, Fruit Fusion, Cucumber Melon, Birthday Cake,
Cozy Cabin, Key Lime Pie, Ginger Lime, Autumn Walk, Sweet Pea, Apple Orchard Pear'adise, Coconut Lime Verbena, Quiet Moments, Pineapple Coast, Cobbler on the Porch, Relaxing and Cranberry Orange.
