Family-friendly product and site reviews and giveaways
Blessings Abound Mommy is having my favorite kind of giveaway – a giveaway of a handbag! I’m posting this here as a bonus entry in her giveaway. One lucky Blessings Abound Mommy reader will win a personalized It’s A Cinch Bag with free personalization, and I’m really hoping that I am that lucky reader! Enter the Blessings Abound Mommy It’s A Cinch Bag giveaway by February 22nd at 11:59 PM (Alaska time).
1001 Picnic Baskets has a great deal on their collapsible, insulated, dual-purpose Picnic Baskets – only $55.99 plus free ground shipping!
What makes this particular basket unique is that the top zips off completely so you can use it as a tote. The frame and handles are lightweight aluminum, and the inside is lined with nylon and has a zippered pocket. Nylon is easy to wipe clean if something spills! On the outside is cotton fabric with a front patch pocket.
Best of all, the basket collapses flat for easy storage. Buy one for yourself and stash it in your car trunk to hold small purchases so they don’t roll around!
While I was at BlogHer, The Art of Shaving kindly sent their Starter Shaving Kit for my husband so he could get some pampering while I was away. That was very thoughtful!
Unfortunately, my husband never opens packages that arrive for me while I’m at conferences, and he left for England on business before I got back. So he wasn’t able to try out the shaving kit! Here’s what’s in the Starter Shaving Kit:
The 4 Elements of The Perfect Shave® combine The Art of Shaving aromatherapy-based products, handcrafted accessories and expert shaving technique to guarantee optimal shaving results while relieving and preventing ingrown hairs, razor burn, tough beard and sensitive skin. The Starter Kit offers 1 week’s worth of essentials for a close and comfortable shave. Complete with Pre-Shave Oil (.5 fl. oz), Shaving Cream (1 oz), After-Shave Balm (.5 fl. oz), Trial Size Badger Shaving Brush and $25 OFF FULL SIZE KIT CARD redeemable at The Art of Shaving Shops.
I’m trying to convince my 13 year old son, who is already shaving, to try it instead. He’s skeptical about the brush, not having grown up with a father who uses a shaving brush. It definitely seems like a lost art form, lathering up shaving soap in a bowl with a brush and applying it.
The Art of Shaving Starter Kit is $25.00 from their website. It’s a great gift idea for a special man (or shaving teen!) in your life!
