Purple & Gold Plated ‘Divine Deva’ Bracelet #DivineDeva
When I said I want one of everything at Novica I truly meant it. I absolutely love this site for so many reasons! I’m not even sure which is my favorite reason! The girly girl part of me wants to put the beautiful pieces at the top. However, the fact that Novica does such wonderful work with artisans around the world should make that the top reason that shopping at Novica is such a joy. NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, works together with talented artisan designers around the world to produce stunning, keepsake treasures. Novica’s mantra is to spread global happiness and they do an excellent job. NOVICA Purple…

When Adding Technology to Your Home, Don’t Forget the Master Bedroom
When Adding Technology to Your Home, Don’t Forget the Master Bedroom Over the past 10 years or so, people have been in the process of adding more and more technology to their homes. The focus has been disproportionately on living rooms. We get it. The living room is very important. But it is not the room you spend most of your waking hours. No, it’s not the bathroom either, no matter how it might seem at times. At least eight out of every 24 hours, you are in bed, or at least in the room where the bed happens to be. At first blush, you might think that the bedroom…

Nikon D7000 Glass Screen Protector
I have a glass screen protector on all my electronics. It’s the smartest thing I add to them! Honestly! My Samsung Galaxy S4 crashed to the cement 2 weeks ago and shattered the screen. I do mean SHATTERED, the glass screen protector kept everything in one piece. Now I am even more sold on the protectors. With all that said I have to admit I never even thought about protecting the screen on my Nikon. The viewing screen on my Nikon D7000 is large and protected by a plastic screen. Which is great sorta, over the years this plastic screen has been scratched and gone cloudy. The screen has definitely…

PowerSkin, Extended Battery Case Galaxy S4!
I love my mobile phone. I am lost without it. We are talking serious withdrawals when the battery is dead. Unfortunately, as great as my Galaxy S4 is the battery life is HORRIBLE! With just using the phone feature I’m lucky to last 5 hours. Add radio? Faaagetaboutit. Adding the PowerSkin Extended Battery Case made specifically for the S4, has not only made my battery last all day (and I do mean ALL DAY) but it protects my phone with the silicone case. Unfortunately, my phone has been dropped several times; yes, I’m blaming the 4-year-old. I’m pleased to report that my phone has survived unscathed; no dents, scratches or…

iRULU eXpro X1s 8 Inch Google Android Tablet Review
I was given the opportunity to review the iRULU eXpro X1s. This 8 Inch Google Android Tablet powered by 5.1 Lollipop operating system is pretty amazing. I was thoroughly impressed that this tablet was ready to go right out of the box! First the look. Side by side to my iPad Mini you can’t tell the difference except that the iRULU is not as tall as the Mini. Other wise I have to turn them over to see which is which. The iRULU has the same white boarder as the Mini along with a silver back. Set up was really, REALLY cool! (Yes, technology still amazes and intrigues me!) First,…

Koalabu Unfinished Wooden Dolls #CraftTimeWithNaNa
One of the best parts of hanging out with a 4-year-old during the week is craft-time. Today’s craft made Alice giddy!! The kid was jumping up and down excited! As soon as I saw these Koalabu Natural Unfinished Wooden Dolls I knew Alice and I would have so much FUN with these. Before they arrived I spent too much time on Pinterest (does anyone else have an addiction to Pinterest?? It’s never just 5 minutes!!). You should see how creative some people are! WOW!! I did save out a set for me to decorate later; some of the Pinterest ideas were just too cute not to try!! To start, I used paints;…
