Can’t Afford a Pedicure?

December 3, 2008

I know I sure can’t!  But aren’t those just some pretty little feet up there?  I don’t know about you but with a husband, four kids, and a dog, I rarely see pedicures, if ever!  When I do get one it’s my lovely husband who gives it to me.  I love that man!

But you know what?  He makes fun of my feet too when they aren’t all prettied up.  You know, he’ll ask me to please stop shredding up the sheets and things like that.  Go ahead and laugh.  Ya’ll know The Glamorous WAHM keeps it real!

But it’s all good because I have found something cheap (cheaper than a pedicure honey) that will make my feet as smooth as a baby’s bottom.  Well maybe not that smooth but hey the sheets will appreciate it.  :o)

Yes ya’ll the Ped Egg!  This little puppy really does work!  The Ped Egg gently removes calluses & dead skin so your feet will feel smooth and soft. Fits securely in the palm of your hand so you can gently slide it across the area you wish to treat. It has 135 stainless steel micro-files that are safe to the touch, and comes with two high-quality buffing pads. Your feet will feel and look like they’ve been to a spa. Easy to empty and clean.

By the way, it’s not just for women.  Men can use it too.  I know my hubby has a few dry areas on his feet he could use it on!  So go ahead and splurge!  Ten bucks aint bad for pretty feet!  Just click on the banner below and oder it.  Your feet, spouse, *sheets*, and wallet will appreciate it.

A Great Game to Bring the Family Together

December 2, 2008

Hand & Foot Canasta is new card game from Marina Games.  I had never heard of this game before but when presented the opportunity to review it, I couldn’t pass it up.  I’m always looking for new things to incorporate into family time.

 

 

The game includes 4 decks of cards that have been created with point values on them for easy learning and playing.  However, we were a bit confused at first but it just added to the fun.  After laughing at each other, trying to figure it out, we were able to get down to business and the competition was on!

If you’re looking for a fun way to spend time with your family this holiday season and beyond, Canasta Hand & Foot is a great game to incorporate into your special time with loved ones.

PolliWalks Are Here Review/Giveaway

Oh my goodness!  These are some of the cutest, most comfortable little shoes I’ve ever seen!  I’ve never been one for themed shoes for my boys but when I received the opportunity to review these innovative little shoes, I could not pass it up.  My three year old has worn his Gator Polliwalks every day sinse we received them.  The colors are vibrant and you could almost mistake them for a toy.

The current Polliwalks line features colorful sculpted animal shaped shoes in the likenesses of a duck, a gator, a frog, a Ladybug, a puppy, a kitty, and a pinguin.  One of the features that I love about these shoes is how easy it is for my toddler to put them on by himself.  He likes the independence and I love the convenience.  Did I mention how easy they are to clean?  A quick wipe with a soapy damp sponge and voila, clean shoes!  I don’t think there could be a more convenient shoe for both parent and child.

The most important feature of this shoe is its design.  While I love a cute shoe, I am always concerned about design and how well they support my child’s foot.  Polliwalks are not only fun, but they are made with little feet in mind with a built in arch support and deep heel cup for a great fit!

Polliwalks just launched their new spring styles, fish and firefly which are now available at Dillards and on Zappos.com  The “Fish Lips” style features a playful fish shaped sandal with squishy lips that change from transluscent white to light purple when exposed to UV rays of the bright sun.  The Firefly is a molded clog complete with rubbery antennae and a tail that lights up as a child jumps, runs, or plays!  These shoes will make wonderful stocking stuffers and great gifts for nieces, nephews, grandkids, and others.

WIN A PAIR! The Glamorous WAHM is going to give one lucky winner a pair of PolliWalks.  You will be able to choose the color, size, and from the following styles; puppy, kitty, gator, duck, frog, or ladybug.

TO ENTER: 1) Visit Polliwalks and check out these cute and innovative little shoes.  Come back and tell me which is your favorite pair and what you love about Polliwalks.

2) Subscribe to my email feed here at The Glamorous WAHM if you haven’t all ready.  The winner will be verified

Dear God…Help Me to Pull This Off

December 1, 2008

Unsung heroes…Salvation Army bell ringers.

Dear God, last week the family and I went to Walmart to do some grocery shopping and I noticed the lady out front ringing the Salvation Army bell.  It was bitterly cold but she had a big smile on her face.  She had headphones on and danced back and forth to the music in her ear as she rang the bell.

I thought to myself, “I wonder what her story is?  How did she come to ring the bell for the Salvation Army?”  And then I had a divine idea that I know came from you.  Thank you that my 14 year old is working for MTV and was sent a Flip camera to do her job.  My idea is, to go around to different stores and interview the person standing outside ringing the bell and get “their story.”  But what I really need you to help me with is this, I would like to get the store that the bell ringer is standing in front of, to sponsor a $50 to $100 gift card for the bell ringer that I interview.  When I’m done with the interview, I want to be able to hand the bell ringer a Christmas card with the gift card inside.  This will be my way of saying thank you for sharing their story.

God I pray that this idea catches like wild fire and people all over the United States will implement the same idea.  These unsung heroes stand in the bitter cold ringing a bell for hours for minimum wage.  I imagine that many of them probably can’t afford to even shop in the store they are standing in front of.  I bet many of them are war veterans like myself.  God my heart goes out to them and I really need you to help me pull this off.  I look forward to working on this project with you.  Let’s have fun!

Save Water Save Energy Save the Planet

November 30, 2008

I recenlty had the opportunity to review a new product, the  Refresh n’ Dryer Towel.  This is a brand new, first of its kind, eco-friendly product.  The Refresh ‘n Dryer Towel reshapes, revives, freshens fabric.

I liked it for its use.  My husband wears scrubs to work and this towel works great for throwing his scrubs into the dryer in the morning and making them fresh and revived.  This towel isn’t made to replace cleaning obviously dirty clothes.  But it’s great for freshening up those balled up clothes in the closet.  I really like the fact that is eco-friendly, void of harsh toxic chemicals.

The Refresh ‘n Dryer Towel creates steam in the dryer that kills bacteria and oder. Velcro-like fabric traps lint, dust, and dirt particles from clothing thus, helping you to save a considerate amount of time, money, water, and electricity!

Visit the Refresh ‘n Dryer Towel site for more valuable information about this innovative new product!

Dawn Hand Renewal Review/Giveaway

I recently had the opportunity to review the new Dawn Plus Hand Renewal dishwashing soap.  At first I was skeptical because, I’m a “traditional” Dawn girl.  If it aint blue it aint workin’ honey!

But I’m a girl who can think outside the box and give something new a chance and I’m glad I did.  I din’t think that this version would cut grease as well as the original but it actually did.  I found its cleaning power to be just as effective.  The Pomegranate and Splash smells fabulous and made my hands feel just as fab!

Don’t just use a dish soap that’s mild on your skin-try one that actually improves the look and feel of it! Dawn PLUS Hand Renewal is great for hand care and you’ll still get the excellent grease fighting power you’ve come to trust with Dawn.  This innovative dish liquid effectively washes dishes while transforming hands.  It is clinically proven to improve your skin’s look and feel in just five uses!

WIN IT! Tell The Glalmorous WAHM why you would love to win a bottle of Dawn Plus Hand Renewal.

Fix Droopy Drawers in a Snap!

My children have all been long with narrow waists.  So, when I buy pants I have to go up a size to accomodate length.  The unfortunate thing is that the waist is always huge so, I have to resort to putting safety pins in the waist to hold them up.

Thanks to Dapper Snappers this problem has been solved!

The Dapper Snapper consists of a short piece of suspender elastic with snaps that fits in the back 3 belt loops of the child’s pants and snaps over the outer 2 loops to cinch the pants thereby keeping them from falling down.  Dapper Snappers come in one size and are recommended  for ages 9 mos to 5 yrs.

I absolutely love them!  No more safety pins thank goodness.  The Dapper Snappers also come in colors for girls and thay also have a new snapcessory collection.

So be sure to visit Dapper Snappers today and fix those droopy drawers!
