Garnier Clean Facial Cleanser

So I get a sample of this facial cleanser in the mail the other day and I absolutely love it. The scent is clean and fresh, it goes on smooth with a fine exfoliating effect that leaves my skin feeling extremely clean and freshly scrubbed. I will for sure purchase this next shopping trip.

Great way to remove pet fur from furniture

I have always having problems getting my cats fur off my furniture. I have tried my hands, vacuum, rubber gloves, to no avail. But then I came across a post mentioning using a squeegie. I was highly doubtful but I bought one and tried it. OMG, it works like a charm. So I wanted to share with everyone who has the same problem. Try it. I'm so happy and now my couches are fur free

How to make a fabric wreath tutorial




I have always loved fabric wreaths, like the one above. It's so much fun to pick the colors and prints you want to use. It doesn't have to be expensive either and makes a great decoration on your front door or inside your home. Best of all , they are pretty durable because they are made from fabric they can withstand the elements.

I have found 2 great tutorials,each uses a different wreath form and technique and both turn out beautifully. You can purchase inexpensive fat quarters at Walmart or craft store.

I hope you enjoy them.

What does your front door say?

I was taking a look around to see how other people paint or decorate their front doors and the results were very interesting. The front door is a focal point and just like any room inside your home, accessories are the finishing touch.Paint or stain your front door in contrasting colors. It brightens up the area and shows others that you take pride in your nest. Any door decorations are a bonus. A beautiful wreath or flower basket on your door can be quick, creative and easy on the budget. And that's not all, it reflects your style, your personality plus door decorations come in all shapes, sizes, seasons and prices.
