I sent this kit to my grandmother in her assisted living home (1000 miles away from me) and she loved it!  It was like having her own little garden.  She said they were beautiful.

It's so nice to be able to feel safe in your own home when you reach a certain age. Lately I've been afraid of falling in the shower and it's great to know that Alexa can hear me from all the rooms in my house. I've tested it with a few friends and it works fantastic! Thanks again for the, My Buddy app. Hopefully I'll never have to use it but it's definitely nice to know it's there :-).

I purchased one as a gift and one for my own home. We both are amazed at the amount and pleasantness of the heat output from this heater.  This heat concept was new to both of us, and I did not want to sink large amounts of money into something so unknown.  We are so pleased that we are considering larger units for our homes.  And this review comes during one of the coldest weeks we have experienced in years!

Pulled out of me the things on my heart that I couldn't quite pin point! I have a kindred spirit with this mama and her writings. It helped me get a glimpse at the finish line and be ok with my family's style of home educating. I found the joy again that I first had when we started day 1 several years ago! Thx Durenda!

My daughter loved this!  She's raising a wonderful little boy on her own and is a wonderful Mother!

I bought this as a gift for someone special who lives 2,500 miles away - and she loved it. The photo she took to show me what it looked like was so much better than the stock photo used on Amazon!  Beautiful.

I purchased this hand painted loaf pan and mini loaf pan (or butter dish, if you have a need for keeping your butter out and are into that sort of thing!) as a gift for a good friend who is about to move into a new home with her husband and small child. She loves everything lavender (the color, the flower, the flavor! Shes made lavender cupcakes before and they are lovely) so when I saw this line of dishes I knew it would be the perfect house warming gift for her.

This loaf pan is a nice size for baking a loaf of bread or meatloaf. The dish itself has a nice weight to it. The mini loaf pan is a little smaller than half the size of the loaf pan.

Both sizes (loaf pan and mini loaf pan) have a scalloped edge that is very pretty. It has a very whimsical, homey feel and will fit in great in a country style kitchen. The lavender flowers and leaves are hand-painted, and very beautiful and delicate. The glaze is hard and just barely shiny. It is very smooth (not many imperfections that I expect from hand crafted pottery) seems like it would be very easy to clean if you got anything baked onto it.

I am pleased with this purchase and am thoroughly looking forward to presenting her with this gift. I know that she will love it. I'm hoping to soon be trying the yummy stuff she will be baking soon! I received these products at a discount in exchange for my honest, unbiased, and genuine opinion.

OMG!!!! I related to SOOO much in this book! I read about it in Country Living and I LOVED it! I grew up in an apt. in NYC so I 'blame' my addiction...lol...yearning for a house on my childhood!:) I bought my 1st house at 37 when I got married, sadly growing up in my generation it was frowned upon to own a house till you got married...lol...so I got married!!!! My 1st house was actually a villa so it really didn't count. In 1996 I owned my 1st 'real' house! In 2005 w/ the real estate market thriving I (now divorced) decided NO ONE would LOVE a second home more than I would. After YEARS of searching on Realtor..com I HAD to buy a farmhouse! That was 5 years ago and I must be honest....LIFE IS PERFECT LIVING IN A FARMHOUSE!!!!!:) I've rented my 1996 house and I am deeply in love w/ my 1886 farmhouse. I FINALLY found what I was YEARNING for throughout my entire life!:)

My daughter saved her money all year and bought this for herself for Christmas.  It was a great purchase, as she LOVES it!!!  From my perspective, it's sturdy, wasn't too hard to put together, and I love the garage/swimming pool and tv in the living room feature that a smartphone can fir in so Barbie can watch movies.  From my daughter's perspective, WOW A GIANT DOLLHOUSE BIGGER THAN ME AND IT HAS A TV AND AN ELEVATOR AND IT'S SO COOL!!!  A wonderful toy that I think she will enjoy for a long time.

WOW!! This little unit is awesome! I can finally feel comfortable in my home again! My living area has an open floor plan with the majority of it having 10 ft ceilings and this thing had ~600 sq ft of living space feeling nice and cool in a matter of minutes! I do not find it to be as noisy as some complain it is; unfortunately, unless you have a heat pump, you're going to have to deal with some noise from an AC unit. I set it up by myself in a matter of only about 20 minutes - although it was pretty heavy, but I didn't have to lift it too far. My only complaint is that I didn't purchase it sooner!

Elizabeth Ruth is named after my two grandmothers, women who passed away before this technology and would be amazed with her as well!

I purchased my home a year ago and have been remodeling ever since. Stuff is stacked everywhere! I am on the downhill side of remodeling FINALLY! Did I mention I have two long haired dachshunds who feel it is their MISSION IN LIFE to decorate my home with hair balls every where?

I ran her yesterday in the kitchen and hall and she didn't miss a trick! Today l let her run in the kitchen, hall and living room. The living room was the real test, as I still have boxes and stuff piled every where. She passed with flying colors! She got stuck behind my recliner as there are quite a few electrical cords and obstacles. I picked her up, sat her back in the middle of the floor, she finished her task and went to her home dock afterwards. She is the very best home purchase I' made to date!

Ive been eyeballing TheNesters new book for a while now, and have had it on my to-purchase-with-Amazon-rewards list. While Ive long loved the Nester, her style isn't particularly mine, but there are usually a few things Im oohing and ahhing over on her blog: Its one of those spaces that are always so clean and bright looking. So you can imagine my pleasure when it popped up as available for reviewing with BookLookBloggers.com.

While I have never, even in my life, rented, this book had general all around awesome tips on how to make a house {or apartment or anything else} a home, without getting caught up in the convoluted idea of Perfect {which doesnt exist by the way}.

Myquillyn talked about her own personal struggles with house envy and realizing the need to see beyond that and her budget. This book was just what I needed to help me start thinking about all the new spaces that Im going to soon be decorating in our home {It gave me a definite paintbrush itch!}

I have always drooled over Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware, The Company Store and any other home catalog, only to look at the prices and think yea right. The problem with those homes is that they're not real, people aren't LIVING in them.

While I would love for my home to be magazine perfect and company ready, what I really want is a home for people to feel comfortable in, and that is Myquillyns most important point in this book, creating the home that serves you, your family, while welcoming others into it.

If youve been struggling with being happy in your own home or having things just the way you want them, take a gander at this book; because it is so much more than just a how to guide on making your space beautiful.

*I received a digital copy of this book for free from BookLookBlogger in exchange for my review, my opinions here are entirely my own.

I have had this tapestry for a year and I LOVE it! It is a great size and makes my room feel so homey! I have it hung on my wall right now although I originally bought it as a beach blanket. It is not necessarily soft and the color did rub off on to people while we were using it at the beach but it really wasn't bad and it looked very cute! I definitely recommend this to anyone looking for something to make their room feel more cozy and homey!

Getting a gift card from my sister was great since we live so far away! I was able to get something I needed/wanted and she was able to provide the money for it! Win-Win for both of us!

Just what my better half needed to reminish a bit of home

I just finished this wonderful book and I highly recommend it. My husband and I are thinking about building or buying a tiny house, and I thought this would provide good insight. While it definitely is about how Dee Williams built her own tiny house, it is also just about life itself. I didn't think I would cry reading a book like this, but I did - because it touched my heart. The writing style rambles a little bit, but when it finally gets where it is going, you are glad you took the trip!

Received mine in 3 days (very impressed) and it worked wonderfully right out of the box, blowing heat immediately.
Things you should know: This little "stove " is cranberry colored (not red) I think only women will care about this Ha-Ha.
There have been a moderate amount of complaints about Duraflame stoves/heaters ( both here and on H  _ N  TV) which is why I purschased the extra protection plan (I figured for 19.00 bucks why not be safe (and why be cheap?) The compliments far outweighed the complaints so I decided to take a chance. The unit was light enough for this 61 year old lady (with an arthritic back) to carry up a flight of stairs ( I imagine it would then be easy to move from room to room) I must say that it is  adorable to look at!  We live in 103degrees San Antonio TX. so we'll probably use it for ambience ( does the flame look real?, of course not, is it enchanting and adorable ? YES. We plan to be able to turn the thermostat down ( during the few months of winter here  ( about 3 LOL, I laugh because we're from New England ) to 68 or 67 at night so we're not heating a 4 bedroom house (it's just the 2 of us and our "pup" sleeps in the bedroom with us) But.... to be honest this little unit is just adorable, what can I say and lets face it, a heck of a lot more stylish then your run-of the-mill space heater. I'll let you know if I encounter any problems with it ,as some others have.
