Spotlight on a Mom Invented product this Mother’s Day: Lovable Labels

***I received an ultimate camp pack for review purposes. No other compensation has been received***

Moms, is there anything we can’t do? I mean we’re multi-taskers, problem solvers, family coordinators, meal planners, boo boo healers, and some…even inventors. Really the list could go on and each mom could have her own unique list of tasks and titles. That’s why, as we’re nearing Mother’s Day, I’m proud to highlight this mom invented product.

Lovable Labels was started by a mom with a problem. The problem of labeling all her sons things as she was told to by the daycare. Everything from clothes, shoes, sippy cups, backpacks, etc. She realized there was a need for personalized labels that would last, be waterproof, dishwasher and microwave safe, washer/dryer safe, sun safe, bleach safe, sunscreen safe, and temperature safe. That’s what she created, labels that are just that, not to mention come in cute colors, shapes, and designs.

I’ve personally been using Lovable Labels for about 2 years now before I even was offered this review. I have labels for each of my kids AND myself including labels with my blog url on them. For the kids I’ve used them to label their water bottles for sports, back packs, shoes, toys, folders for school, gym/sports bags, and there’s probably more. For me I use them to label my office supplies, my clipboard I carry around at work, my tupperware, and more. They are so handy and can be used on just about anything. They stay put and really are durable. I have labels on some of my tupperware that I put on a year ago and still looks like the day I put it on, even after being washed numerous times. We have cover dishes for different things at work and I’ll label my bowls and even utensils.

I had a chance to try out the Lovable Labels camp pack. The camp pack includes

–15 sticker labels

–40 slimline labels

–12 shoe labels

–72 Press n’ Stick Clothing DOTS

–2 mini metal tags (like dog tags)

–12 Square labels.

For a total of 150 labels!

You can get any name on them and can choose the theme of your pack. I chose the Ultimate Camp Pack -Diva theme for my baby girl because she didn’t have her own labels yet. Here is some of her things I labeled:

her diaper bag (mini metal tag)

On her shoes with the (shoe labels)

on her toys (slimline label)

In my opinion I think the camp pack would work great for daycare or school too. So many things you could label. If you visit their site: http://www.lovablelabels.ca you’ll see a variety of labels to fit your needs. Allergy labels, medical ID bracelets, household labels, and even stationary.

You can find Lovable Labels on facebook

HALO SleepSack Early Walker and Big Kids now available

***I received a sample of the below mentioned product for review purposes. I was not required to write a positive review. Any opinions expressed are my own***

I remember a few years ago first hearing about the HALO SleepSacks and I thought they were a great idea. A safer way to keep your baby warm without blankets and things that could cover you little one’s face or for them to get tangled up in.

Now you can transition your little one into HALO SleepSack Early Walker and then HALO SleepSack Big Kids.

HALO SleepSack Early Walker

HALO SleepSacks are the original light weight wearable blanket for a safer sleep for your little ones while still keeping them warm. HALO SleepSack Early Walker and Big Kids have foot opening so your little one can still get around but has the same warmth and safety of the original SleepSack. Wear this over their pajamas and they’re good to go for the night.

Here’s some info provided by HALO:

About the HALO SleepSack Early Walker & SleepSack Big Kids:

HALO Innovation’s SleepSack® wearable blankets have become the standard for hospital nurseries and parents alike. In fact, 1,000 hospital nurseries use the HALO SleepSack Swaddle instead of blankets through the HALO Safer Way to Sleep Initiative. As your child grows from baby to toddler, HALO Innovations offers the SleepSack Early Walker and SleepSack Big Kids – now in a new lightweight- knit fabric. HALO SleepSack Early Walker and SleepSack Big Kids offer your child the warmth and security of a SleepSack so he can fall asleep fast and sleep soundly throughout the night as well as unique foot openings for more mobility when awake.

I tried the HALO SleepSack Big Kids with my 3 yr old son. HALO SleepSack Big Kids comes in a 2T/3T size and a 4T/5T size. I got the 4T/5T for my son. They also come in with different embroidered designs on them. The one I received has a truck on it.

This is my little cutie in his HALO SleepSack Big Kids. My son is currently in a size 4T but not for long. This SleepSack gives him a little room to grow.

It’s not uncommon for me to walk into his room in the morning and see his covers on the floor and him all curled up in bed. I liked the idea of the HALO SleepSack Big Kids in that sense because I’m sure he’ll be warm. The only downfall I can see to this is that kids that are potty trained are gonna need some help in and out of this. The zipper actually connects at the top and zips “up” by pulling the zipper down towards the feet, if that makes sense.

I woke up this morning to this surprise at my feet this morning.

No covers on himself, just sleeping at the foot of my bed. I’m glad he had on the HALO SleepSack Big Kids.

Besides the obvious safety benefits some of the other pros I found;
–machine washable
–a portion of every sale is donated to First Candle/SIDS Alliance which I think is awesome
–available in different sizes and for boys or girls
–comfortable material

You can find HALO on several social media sites:
HALO on facebook

and HALO on Pinterest

HALO products including the SleepSack Early Walker and Big Kids can be found on Amazon

New Soft Scrub Mold and Mildew Stain Remover Gel review and giveaway

***I received a sample of the below mentioned product at no cost in order to complete an honest review. No monetary compensation was received***

Soft Scrub has been busy. They’ve added so many new and effective products to their line. Soft Scrub Mold and Mildew Stain Remover Gel is just one of them.

Soft Scrub Mold and Mildew Stain Remover Gel spray is great for use in the bathroom. The gel is easy to apply with few pumps, is strong enough to remove dirt, mold, and mildew. There’s no harsh fumes from this product.

When I knew I had the opportunity to review this product I new exactly what I was going to do with it. The end of last year our roof started leaking. The water had come down through our dining room ceiling as well as the bathroom ceiling. Our house is nearly 100 years old. The bathroom has no vent system at all. Long story short the moisture and lack of ventilation led to mold starting to grow. We’ve since got our roof fixed but the mold continued to be an issue. We’re now in the process of doing a remodel of the bathroom including adding a ventilation system and moisture resistant walls. I thought I’d take the chance to kill some of the mold during the remodeling process just to see if this stuff worked.

This is just one spot on the wall above the shower head. Gross I know but we’re taking care of it. Thought I’d zap some of this stuff though before it was ripped out.

Worked pretty good, no? I Think so. The gel sprayed out clear. It only took a few sprays and a little bit of elbow grease to get that mold off the wall.

Soft Scrub is on facebook. Stop by and like their page, they have a coupon available for $1 your favorite Soft Scrub product: https://www.facebook.com/SoftScrub

To promote the new Mold and Mildew Stain Remover they have an awesome sweepstakes to go with it. Say Goodbye to Mold and Mildew Stain Sweepstakes: http://insiders.purex.com/saygoodbye?id=154 Grand Prize is $1000 and a year supply of Soft Scrub. 250 second place winners will win free Soft Scrub Mold and Mildew Stain remover!
