For those looking for convenience and ease of carrying things, the tote bag is often the best suited for the job.

The word tote started to be used back in the mid 1700’s and literally means to carry, with technically unknown origins; originally attested in Virginia. The Oxford English Dictionary questions the popular theory of its origin in a West African language (cf. Kikongo tota “pick up” and Kimbundu tuta “carry, load,” linked to Swahili tuta “pile up, carry”).

Embroidery a form of art that involves decorating a surface, typically fabric, with designs created by using a needle and thread (or yarn) that started out as a form of hand sewing and eventually advanced into a type of machine sewing. The exact origins of embroidery are hard to pinpoint, but there are many early examples that have survived throughout the centuries from ancient Egypt, Northern Europe and the Zhou Dynasty in China. In many cultures throughout history including ancient Persia, India, Japan, Byzantium, medieval and Baroque Europe – embroidery was a sign of high social status and wealth and became a hugely popular art form.

JenJenHouse.com is the Source For Made-To-Order Prom Dresses at Off-The-Rack Prices!!!

jenjenhouselogo

At this time of the year, I get excited thinking about anything related to spring!  Whether it’s seeing displays in stores for patio furniture and gardening, racks filled with swim suits or Easter decorations, it puts a huge smile on my face.  To think about green grass, warm weather and blossoming flowers really helps my mood as we are in the midst of an Arctic Blast in the Northeast.  Springtime is also the time for proms.  Many girls and their moms will set out on a journey to find the perfect prom dress to celebrate that special, memory filled day.

I know shopping with my daughter, it seemed every store carried the same dresses and it was inevitable that at least 2 or 3 girls would be wearing the exact same dress at the prom.  We had to really go off the beaten path to find a store that carried a larger selection of dresses.  That’s why I am excited to tell you about JenJenHouse.com!

My boys love monster trucks, cars and trains as most boys do.  We recently had a chance to experience Motorworks from Manhattan Toy.  Motorworks vehicles are able to be detailed by your child and they can swap wheels and parts from vehicle to vehicle creating new looks for their race cars, monster trucks and cars anytime they want.  My boys went to town with the stickers and had so much fun decorating their cars and trucks.  After that they were off and playing, stopping for tire rotations and then right back in action.

I have to say that the framed print was impossible to get a photo of, the glare was so distracting, no matter what I tried, I could not eliminate it.  The pictures do not do the piece justice and I had to try and crop and show you parts of it but still it does not look anything like the beautiful piece it is.  I may try again and see if I can get some better pictures and update.

Shains Recycled Fashion Accessories Review and Giveaway!!!

 

I was recently sent a variety of Shains accessories to review. These rubber bracelets are very supple, comfy to wear and are easily adjustable. Each of the bracelets came with their own sets of elements which were mostly letters with a few pictures. With the bracelet cuff you have two rows in which to write your message, with so much space It can be fun coming up with things to “write” on it.

Even their hair elastics have an insert for an element! The pet collar is great because it is very adjustable, It fit on my small cat, but would still fit on a bigger cat, or small dog as well. I got some cute little pet related element tiles to accessorize with. The elements were very easy to pop in and out of the holes on the bracelets, and you can switch out the letters to make many different names, phrases and simple words that you might like on a bracelet! You can add picture elements to the bracelets along with your phrases as well,  the possibilities are endless.

Kids will love that they can switch the letters out every day to create a new style or note! Shains products are like the new age of letter bracelets for a young one with interests that change fast! I remember making bracelets when I was about 12 or 13, with the name of a band I liked, but after I lost interest in that band, I was stuck with a bracelet I didn’t want to wear anymore! With Shains I could have just popped the letters out and transformed my old bracelet into a talisman of my new obsession. With these cool bracelets and accessories, you can proudly show your support of a cause and look trendy while doing it!

Shains products are all about recycling. The bracelets and cuffs are made of recycled Thermoplastic Elastomer, a rubber, the elements are made of recycled Acrylonitrile Butadiene styrene, and their packaging is made of recycled papers, bags are polypropylene. Shains accessories are also recyclable when you are done with them! All of their products are tested and passed all US and European safety standards.

The Giveaway:

Shains is graciously sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings! Only lucky blog reader will win a Recycled Cuff with 100 elements!!! Thank you Shains for the fabulous review accessories and awesome giveaway!!!  Open to US residents.
