Click n' Play Blue Building Brick Baseplates - 5"x 5" - (Pack of 8)

So this is Click n' Play building brick base plates. They cost $13.61 for an 8 pack. You can buy them here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017EUX974?ref_=cm_rdp_product

So this pack of lego plates comes in a pack of 8. They are a perfect square, at 5x5. They are all a pretty blue color, and smooth to the touch. You can use these so many different ways. You could attach them to a table, and build a lego table. You could use these in a school setting, so that each student has their own plate to build on. No worrying about fighting that so and so gets the bigger one, these are all the same size, shape and color.

These plates work well with name brand legos, and with off brand bricks. They fit nice and snugly, but not too snug. You can build as high as you want, build a house, a village, connect them together. Ideas are endless!

Click n' Play - 500 pc Value Pack of Building Bricks

First off, my kids, all boys, from 2 years old to almost 12 years old, LOVE Lego's! But, we all know how expensive those can be! Even just a small lego car kit, runs $6 and up. Multiple that by 6 eventually, and that's $36 for 6 little cars. But we all know that boys like to build, and build and build! You can get a tub of Lego's with around 500 pieces for about $40. So you can bet my excitement when I found this 500pc set, for under $20!

You can buy this product here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017EUXEF6?ref_=cm_rdp_product_img

Low cost of only $18.99!!!

You get a 500 piece value pack of building bricks with 10 assorted colors and 14 different shaped pieces!

While these may be what you'd call "off-brand", aside from the "name" on the brick, these fit, and look exactly like real Lego's! They are sturdy, and well constructed. They fit snugly together, to create a long lasting structure. They mix and match with no problems, and the colors are great! There are a few colors that you won't find in real legos, so it makes for even better imaginations!

These bricks also interchange with real legos, so you can mix and match, and build, and they will all work together nicely! They also attach to lego plates, so you can build villages, houses and more!
With this price, I can buy multiple bags for my kids, and they'll have enough legos to last them years!

Sili Bake Pastry mat

First of all, you can find this amazing product Sili Bake
This product costs $16.99, and is well worth it!
 
This is a large mat, 23"x15". It is a non slip mat, which is NICE to have! I was able to place it on my desk and my kitchen table, and roll out my fondant, without worry about the mat slipping, and taking forever to finish my work. It comes rolled up in the box, and when you pull it out and unroll it, it lays flat. There are no wrinkles, or creases. It's ready to go as soon as you pull it out of the box.

This mat is safe for the oven, freezer, and dishwasher, although you can hand wash it if you prefer, with soap and water. It is made of the highest grade of FDA silicone, and chemical odor free. When using this mat, it has a non stick surface, meaning you don't need extra flour or oil to keep your pastry's from sticking. With the pre-measurements printed onto the mat, it allows you to roll out the perfect size pastries without any fuss.

It even comes with a pie recipe and a sugar cookie recipe printed on the mat as well. You'll also find oven temperature conversion, measure conversion and weight conversion. SO convenient! This is the perfect pastry mat, for all your baking needs! I received this product for free, in exchange for my honest, unbiased review, however, my opinion is my own.

ISA Professional Mirror Titanium Flat Iron

Okay, to start off, upon pulling this out of the box, and un-doing the twist ties, the first thing I noticed was how LONG the cord is! I can easily plug this in to an outlet that's a bit of a distance, and still have plenty of cord to use it with ease. The second thing I noticed, was at the base of the iron, the cord swivels, which makes using this iron so easy. You can turn this iron every which way, and the cord will turn, to be flexible!

 This Hair Iron retails for aprox. $299, but you can purchase it for $129 on Amazon, Here is the product link:  ISA Professional

After I plugged it in, I love that it has a display, that tells you if it's on/off, and what the temperature is. It also has a power button, and a + and - sign, to bring the temperature up or down. It's very sleek and smooth. The design makes it easy to hold and use. The color, deep red, is very flawless and reminds me of something you'd see in a salon. You'll want to be careful when touching the iron, as the top part where you put your hair, gets hot to the touch. I wouldn't recommend touching it without some sort of protective cover on your fingers.

This iron took way less time than any other iron I've used. I have fairly long hair, and it took me about 15 minutes from start to finish to get my hair nice and straight.

This iron is made of mirror titanium plates. It has a neon background LCD Display. You can straighten your hair, create curls or waves with ease! The temperature goes from 265* to 450*, and you get a 2 year warranty!! This is my all time favorite iron!

Jola Case for Samsung Galaxy S5

So, I just had the pleasure of reviewing a case for my Samsung Galaxy S5. This case is very sturdy, and solid. You can try to bend it, but it doesn't give much. It's made of hard plastic and rubber. Each of the area's where the buttons would line up, are positioned perfectly, so there's no frustration of your buttons not working correctly. This case has a cut out for your camera as well, it's designed around it, so that it doesn't interfere with your camera or flash. It comes in Green, Red, Black, White, Navy Blue, and Orange. When the case gets to you, you'll find it packaged in a cardboard box, on a plastic insert. When you pull the case out of the box, on the inside of the case, it will have screen protectors. A super nice bonus! These screen protectors work nicely, and I was able to get nearly almost all the air bubbles out. I found that there was extremely minimal peeling at the edges, creating a nice tight seal against the phone. The case is light weight on it's own, so once added to your phone, you won't find that it increases in heaviness or size by much. It's a one piece case, so now fumbling with an insert, and then the outside part etc. The inside is a soft rubber to help with impact, and the corners have large bumpers around them and a nice front lip to help the screen keep free of scratches and breaks.

 

Overall, this is a great addition to your Samsung Galaxy S5, and it even comes with a 1 year warranty!!!
