Original Shirataki Facial Sponge from Nothing But Skin Care
So far this is the best exfoliating sponge I have had. This one comes pre-moistened sealed in a bag, instead of rock hard. I loved that it gently exfoliated my face. I do not have acne nor am I prone to pimples, but I do live in Florida and sweat a lot, and I do work with household type chemicals all day, so I really like making sure my face is as clean as it can be after a hard day. So far I am pretty sure this one will be my favorite for a very long time.
I just gently rubbed this one my face for a few minutes then rinsed off my face, put a light moisturizer on and was amazed at how nice my face felt. This sponge will harden as it dries, but just soak it in some warm water for about 5 minutes before each use. When finished rinse it out good and hang it to dry. It does come with a string attached to hand it on. The string is a little flimsy so not sure how long it will last, but you could take a stronger piece of twine or even yarn and run it through with a large needle to make a stronger or longer even string to hang it on.

DOGTEK Sonic BirdHouse Bark Control Outdoor/Indoor
This sure is cute. I set it in my living room since that is my dog's favorite room. They love to hang out on their love seat and watch TV, oh yea and bark. This didn't really seem to effect them at all when they went nuts barking. I set it on the lowest level to start with, nothing. I moved it up to the medium level, nothing. Now it it on the high level, and well still doesn't seem to faze them. I sure was hoping it would work. I did read in other reviews that it did not work well on small high pitched dogs. I do have a small dog, but I also have a medium sized dog, his bark is very loud but it is also a high pitched bark so maybe that is why it is not working.

Earth-Air Optimum Health Car, Truck, & RV Air Purifier Ionizer Freshener
This Earth-Air Optimum Health Car, Truck, & RV Air Purifier Ionizer Freshener is about the best thing in my car. We are a family of allergy sufferers and some of my family cannot handle the air fresheners and some of them just stink, plus they just cover up the odors in the car anyway. This does a great job of removing the odors not covering them up. I live in Florida and its almost always hot and damp, so cars usually have a stale or musty odor to them. My car is also a new car, so it has that horrible new car smell, which kind of makes me sneeze at times when the car has been closed up in the hot sun all day.
The ionizer is so easy to use, just plug it into the charging port or cigarette lighter of the car and forget it. It has a really cool blue light that glows when the car is running, this lets you know it is doing it's job. This is silent, I cannot hear any noise at all from it.
My husband and I both quit smoking 7 months ago, but there is still a little bit of a lingering smell in the car, at times I can smell it other times I can't, but with the ionizer so far I haven't smelled it at all.

Herb Grinder Tool Large 4 Piece (2.5) Metal Big Kief Catcher and Scraper by Flying Monkey
Ok so I am probably not using this Grinder for the exact purpose it is being sold for but let me tell you it done a great job grinding herbs and spices for my dinner.
There were a couple of burrs on the grinders but only took a couple minutes to knock them off.
I am a from scratch cook, there are no boxed meals served in my house. I am also a budding Gourmet cook. I really love using fresh spices and herbs. This is at the top of my list of favorite kitchen gadgets, and let me tell you I have tons of gadgets. I have a couple of spice grinders including an electric one, but this one works better then any of them. This one has 50 very sharp teeth and grinds everything perfectly. Took me a time or 2 of experiments to get the consistency down I wanted, but now that I have it I love it.
It is so easy to use, just put your herbs, spices, or whatever in the top chamber and twist a few times. The grinder is made of premium zinc alloy. The little spatula is also a great plus if you are looking for a fine powder. The ground herb/spice falls into a screened chamber, take the spatula and gently run it around the screen area and the fine powders or silt will fall to the bottom chamber, which holds about 3 tablespoons worth. This would make a great gift for anyone on your list who loves to cook or who grinds their herb or tobacco (since that is what this one is actually sold for)
This one is amazing looking also. I love the flying monkey embossed into the top.

HiGlow Flame-less Candle set
This is a great set of flameless candles. There are 4 candles in the set a 2 inch, 3 inch, 4 inch, and 5 inch candle and a remote control. The candles have LED lights. The candles and remote run of 2032 batteries. These are beautiful, they even flicker like real candles. I like to call them childproof, since it is safe to leave them "burning" with the kids running around. They are great to put into holiday decorations, party decorations, or just make a pretty display on the coffee or end table.
The candles are made of wax, so the light shines through like a real candle. These come in a nice box so would be great for gift giving.

Organic Handmade Wool Dryer Balls by:lullaby baby
So I tried to find something, anything that I didn't love about these wool dryer balls, I came up empty. These are saving me money in more ways then one. I do not have to buy fabric softener, dryer sheets, or the fabric softener bar that sticks to the inside of the dryer, and it doesn't take as long to dry the clothes. Not sure how these make my clothes dry faster but I am not gonna complain.
I have not noticed any static in my clothes when I bring them out of the dryer, and I am pretty sure these are responsible for the less wrinkles in certain items of clothing.
I do not use fabric softener in my towels, it seems to make them not as absorbent, so sometimes they are a bit stiff, but after using these wool dryer balls my towels are soft and fluffy, just like a brand new towel.
Best part no more chemicals!!! These are pure wool. Each ball is handmade from 100% organic New Zealand wool, now I am not sure what the difference is between New Zealand wool and any other wool but I won't complain or question that either.
There are 6 balls in the set. For smaller loads you may not need all the balls, for bigger loads you do want to use all 6. These are even safe for delicates since there is nothing sharp and nothing to snag on. Unlike the plastic ones.
Did you know wool is naturally mildew resistant, flame resistant, is a natural air purifier and wool absorbs noise making them quieter in your dryer then those plastic balls?
Ok so yes I love these!!! You should check out the link below and get yourself a set, and when you do you get BONUSES!!! You get a very nice pull string bag to store your wool dryer balls in, me I just leave the balls in the dryer when I am done, and you get a really nice handmade wool sheep coin purse.

Electric Milk Frother and Whisk with Coffee Spoon
This is a very nice set. I love the coffee spoon, it is just great. It is the right size for a scoop of coffee and the clip is very strong and perfect for a coffee bag.
The frother is a little on the heavy side, but it has 2 speeds. I have had a few different frothers and they only have 1 speed. This one is also very quiet. It has a very nice clean look to it, with its stainless steel and black look. It runs on 2 AA batteries which were not included.
