Review: Scribble on Everything



Make your mark without leaving a mark with Scribble on Everything. With endless decorating possiblities, you can decorate and improve the style of every room in your home or office with their selection of vibrant and stylish wall decals. Wall decals are a great alternative to paint, wallpaper and posters.

I chose the Tiny Trees ($51.99) for my living room and couldn't be more pleased with my selection. This vibrant set enhances the look of my living room. It makes it look more inviting. The designs are made of vinyl with a matte finish. The matte finish will give one the impression that these decals were painted on your walls instead. You can also apply them on your ceilings, mirrors, doors, laptops and furniture! Wall decals can be a bit tricky to apply depending on the size and details. However, I like that you can easily remove these wall decals without peeling off any paint in the process.

Review: Dyson DC31 Animal



The Dyson DC31 Animal ($269.99) is the ideal handheld vacuum for pet owners. I'm usually not a big fan of handheld vacuums, but the Dyson DC31 Animal surpassed my expectations! Tiring as they can be, I usually prefer the bigger vacuums. However, I was surprised about how lightweight and powerful the Dyson DC31 Animal is! Since receiving this vacuum, I have abandoned my other handheld since it would give out on me within a few minutes, no matter how long I charged it!

Dyson DC31 Animal is the best handheld vacuum I have ever used! It got so much embedded dirt from the carpet that my Bissell® CleanView® Helix Upright Vacuum ($89.99) didn't get, and the Bissell is a pretty darn good vacuum! Best of all, it is good at picking up those stray pet hairs that drive me up the wall. This vacuum is so easy to use, and stays charged for a long time! It doesn't easily give up on me in mid-cleaning. The suction still goes on strong even when the battery is low. The indicator light tells you when the power is about to run out, and the charge is quick - 3.5 hours.

This vacuum also has a lifetime filter, which means you don't ever have to replace it! This is good news to me, because replacing filters can be costly. All you have to do is wash the filter once a month and let it dry 12 hours before usage. The digital motor uses much less energy than traditional motors with losing suction. It spins up to 104,000 times a minute and doesn't emit carbon dust.

Overall, I'm impressed with the Dyson DC31 Animal. It is the best handheld for pet owners. For equal effectiveness, you might want to try the Dyson DC31 ($219.99) if you're not a pet owner. This is one handheld that you wouldn't want to shove in the back of your closet!

Review: Gabriel's Aunt



Welcome to Gabriel's Aunt where Apothecary meets Colorful, Playful and Fun. Simple yet complex natural scents. Minimal packaging, recycled and re-usable. High quality natural blends. Unique scents you will not find anywhere else. Always 100% Natural.



I received the Playtime Candle ($9.60), which has an uplifting blend of Peppermint, Eucalyptus, Herbaceous, Rosemary and other oils. Since it is a soy candle, it burns clean and is long lasting (25 - 35 hours of burn time). This is one of their most popular scents. This candle is very soothing during cold and flu season. It is also good for those who may be feeling under the weather or stressed out. It also may provide relief for those who suffer from allergies. I wouldn't mind try out other scents from their collection since Gabriel's Aunt has a variety of scents that sound very appealing, especially the Southern Tea and Morning Air.
