Potty Cover Review



POTTY COVER is a disposable toilet seat cover for children (and adults) that covers the sides and the front of the toilet, to keep away germs at public rest-rooms.  It is made of non-woven fabric coated with a layer of plastic, creating a waterproof barrier between the toilet and the child. This product has the largest coverage of all seat covers on the market and for added convenience, each seat cover is individually packaged in a small, easy to open bag that makes it super easy to always keep one or two in a purse or a back pocket. 


Using a public rest-room with a young child could be very stressful, but with Potty Covers the whole family can feel safe knowing that even at the filthiest bathrooms they will be protected from germs. This product was designed for kids, but it has become a must-have travel item for many of our adult customers.

A pack of Potty Cover sells for $5.99 and it is available on Amazon, Ebay, all Buy Buy Baby stores around the country and at select Bed Bath & Beyond stores.

I have been using Potty Covers for a few months now and I love them. I keep a pack in both of my vehicles. I use Potty Covers anytime we are on a road trip and I have to use the bathroom as I dislike using public restrooms but when you have to go there's no choice. I like knowing that while I use Potty Cover that I am protected and I feel less grossed out using the road side bathroom. Potty Covers are a great product to have on hand.

Best Infuser Water Bottle that is safe for you! Review


Amazon.com image


What a great way to create your own personalized flavored beverage with fresh, natural ingredients! Made of durable Eastman TRITAN™. A quality reusable product with comfortable single hand access. Fill the removable snap lock infuser basket with strawberries, lemons, limes, orange slices, mint leaves, tea bags and much more! These bottles are BPA-Free and are top-rack dishwasher safe.


Single fruits in each bottle is another way to go.  Personally I like to combine the fruits and you really don't need all the pieces of fruit that are shown in the above image unless you want it strong!



Infuser Water Bottle broken down. I like the taste of orange and lemon in my water. So I only need 1/4 of an orange and 1/2 of a lemon. I put those slices into the tube on the right side of the photo and then then cap it off with the blue piece on the left. It has holes in it and you actually drink from that top.


The infuser water bottle is also dishwasher safe and easy to clean!   I love this infuser water bottle and I think you will too.  You can order today and get a free gift- Order today and receive a free Jute Bag Bonus. Plus, your purchase will be backed by a 90 day money-back guaranteed!

BBQ Grill Mats are the Bomb! Review

These BBQ Grill Mats are what every serious BBQ'er needs!  This is the answer to having to scrub down the grill racks every time we use it.  It works with charcoal, gas, Big Green Egg, Yoshi, and Weber Style Grills. 


As you can see from the picture, there are 2 mats making this so easy now to barbeque. We had lamb burgers and rolls on the grill.  But the next time we grill we are going to use either chicken, ribs, burgers, steaks or seafood.  We can also use eggs and fish.  One thing we love on the grill is vegetables!



The mats are made with 100% PFOA free materials and is FDA approved.  That is important to our family because we eat fresh and frozen.  We want to use products that are safe to use.  The mats are also high quality grill mate and are 150% thicker than many low cost alternatives.  We never knew about these grill mats which says that we need to do more viewing and cruising through the aisles of Amazon.com to see what is new and useful.

My husband did the dishes (I know, he's great!) and he said how easy they were to clean because all he had to do is wash them with warm soapy water.  They can also be put into the dishwasher.

There is a no hassle money back guarantee, so why wouldn't you want to buy these and make the best food on the BBQ Grill Mats!  Here's where you can buy them: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KXEK84Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Paint Brush Set By Brush Artistry Review: The best brushes I have ever used!





I'm thrilled to be writing a product review about the Paint Brush Set by Brush Artistry. These are 36 high quality, long wooden handle paint brushes featuring synthetic, hog and pony hair bristles.  They can be used with watercolor, acrylic, 
oils and other paint media.  They are ideal for beginners and experienced artists. 

These 12-inch long wooden handles are color-coded for ease of selection.  I used three white handle brushes and one green handle brush for my first watercolor painting.



The brush I used in the next photo had a tuft that was round at the tip.  Several of the brushes in the entire set have the same tuft.  It was easy to use this brush and I used the yellow watercolor and dabbed at the paper.



The brush I used next had a tuft that was flat at the tip.  This allowed me to make a different stroke in red and I used a short stroke with the brush.




I then switched brushes and used a brush that had a tuff with a round tip.  I pushed the brush into the paper with the blue paint and continued doing this all over the paper as with the other strokes of the brush.



I used the first brush again, once it was cleaned in water.  I noticed how easily it was cleaned and it took in the green paint and I made dabs with that paint all over the paper. 




Since I had used up most of the space on the paper I decided to stop there and save this as my first watercolor painting.

Some of these brushes would be great with nail art as well.  This would be with the broader strokes covering most of the nail as nail art brushes are smaller and more precise.  

I just love these brushes and I intend on sharing them with my friends when they come over this week.  I'm going to work on more paintings and try other strokes and see how to use them.  

The case is cloth and is durable and has small pockets for each brush on the inside, as the flap covers the brushes and then this can be rolled and tied shut.


I would recommend these brushes to anyone of the age to appreciate brush care as these can be used by the beginner through the experienced.  This is a set that you will use for a long time.

They can be found at Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LHMVC5C/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_37
