"Colded" In

While we don't have much snow here in our little part of the world, it is really cold.  And it's been cold for the past week or two.

So Goose and I have been "colded" in.  After the newness of all she got for Christmas wore off, we started to go a little stir crazy.  There is really only so much TV you can watch and after a while music gets a little old.  But, I had to come up with something.

Some people may not know this, but I used to make and sell jewelry.  In fact, I have a ton of supplies, and haven't really touched it since Goose was born almost 3 years ago.

I haven't been using so I decided to let Goose play with it, and I thought I could make a few things as well.  Here is what we came up with.

 I put pin backs on these for her, so that she could give them to people as pins.  

I thought this necklace turned out really well.

This is one I made out of Jasper and Lepidolite

This one is made out of Onyx and Malachite

 These two are candle holders we made with seed beads.  We put glue all over the candle older and then rolled them in seed beads.  I think they turned out really well.  

As you can see we had a bit of fun.  Now on to the next "colded" in activity.

ZEEPO Sleep Mask and Sleep Serum Review and Giveaway

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

A few months ago I started looking for a way to help block sunlight from the bedroom while my husband slept since he works nights.  We got some really fancy black out curtains, but the still let light in on the sides, and really bad on the top.  So the search continued.

Then I had the opportunity to review the Zeepo strapless mask and the Dream Essence Sleep Serum.  I was really excited for hubby to try this out to see if he was able to sleep better.

First, you stick four of the adhesive strips to the mask and place them as pictured above.  Then pull off the clear portion of the strips so that they are sticky.

Then you stick the whole thing to your face making sure it fits well over the bridge of your noes.

The mask blocks out the light really well, and you don't have to worry about it falling down while you are asleep since it's stuck to your face.

The sleep serum also smells great!  You just dab a little on your wrist and temples, and the aromatherapy scents will help you relax and soon fall asleep.

If you would like to get a strapless sleep mask or sleep serum of your own, you can purchase them on Dream Essentials website links below:

Wiley's Finest Wild Alaskan Fish Oil Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

I have been taking fish oil for a few years now.  I love how it makes my nails and hair grow faster, and I believe it has helped some with keeping my blood presser down.  How ever one thing I don't like about the fish oil that I have been taking is the taste.  Yes it come in pills, but several hours after I take it, I start tasting and burping fish.  YUCK!!

Recently, I decided to try a different brand, and Wiley's Finest was looking for a review.  So I thought I would give it a try.

Wiley's Finest has purified and concentrated to provide a Peak dose of EPA in each softgel.  That means you get 4x more than you would get in a regular 1000mg fish oil.  Peak EPA is clinically proven to increase Omega-3 levels in human muscle tissue and red blood cells.  You get all of this without the fishy taste.

I take one softgel at night with my regular medications.  With my old fish oil, I had to take two.

Each bottle of 30 sofgels will cost you about $21.99 + shipping.  These can purchased on their website here: http://www.wileysfinest.com/peak-epa-1000mg-epa-dha-per-softgel-30-softgels/
