As a parent it is great when you can give your child a name that is familiar but spelled differently that usual. The problem you will soon discover is that when you go to the mall or certain specialty shops to buy those personalized items, such as key rings or lanyards or pencils or anything you want personalize, you will search and search to no end and not find what you are looking for. The problem is that these personalized items are only personalized with COMMONLY spelled names.
My daughters name is Dennise, my name with an "e" on the end. I toyed with the idea of spelling it thusly also, Dyniece, but we went with the former because it is more named after me but in a feminine version of my name. Even while typing this my spell checker is telling me that all of these versions are not spelled correctly, but in fact it is. Dennise's sister Samantha had key chains and notebooks with her name on it but none for Dennise and for this I am so sorry to my daughter.
But alas she is now over 20 years old and finally has something personalize with her correct name on it. The necklace comes with a polishing cloth and a bag to store it in when not being worn. She was genuinely very happy with this necklace and told me "finally something with my name correctly spelled on it". So if you are looking to get something personalize because of the same parental blunder that I encountered or you would just love to have a beautiful personalized necklace, this item may be right for you.

I just wanted to give a shout out to a great new to me item. This is the Boomile Wireless Doorbell. Nobody wants to spend the extra money or time professionally installing a doorbell, so with this item there is no drilling or expensive installation fees. As seen from the photos this item comes in a nice compact box and you can see everything you get except for the battery which I had already put into the doorbell. You get the doorbell that your visitor will push to "ring" either one or both of the receiver units, which plug into a standard wall outlet, a small screwdriver, a piece of mounting tape (to mount where ever you want to, usually a smooth surface such as door panel), and a little instruction booklet.
If you watch the included video you can see a demo of some of the sounds that this doorbell makes. Please pardon my cell phone which received a text message while doing this demo. You can tell by watching which is my cell phones notification, because the light only comes on which each bell is pushed or selected. There are only two buttons on the units. One to control the particular bell and the other to select the volume. I was amazing that this wireless doorbell has a 1000 foot range, because this covers a lot of space. You could put one receiver unit in the bedroom and the other in the kitchen or where ever it is convenient for you.

I find I am a little behind the times as this is my first phone holder ever. I now know what it means to be truly hands free behind the wheel. There are several things I really love about this phone holder.
First I love that it fits a wide assortment of phones. My phone is a bit on the smaller side and my wife's is way larger and it fits them both with ease. I say with ease because there is a little button on the back you push and the arms slowly telescope out to the maximum size and then you put your phone in and squeeze to you phone size.
I love the little legs that support your phone from falling and it has a gap in between them so you charging cord can go through there. I also really think that it is neat that there is two different options to squeeze onto your vents. You can select a tighter grip or one that has a bit more space for those larger vents.
I also find that the ability of this phone holder to swivel from vertical to horizontal is great for when I am sitting in the vehicle for a bit and want to watch a video. I have nothing to base it on since this is my first phone holder, but the construction of the item feels very durable so it will last a long time. I included many photos are all different angles to try and show just how great this item it.
It is so funny as I have reviewed many headphones and you would think...ok they are headphones. But I have learned that not all headphones are the same and various companies that manufacture them are always striving to make headphones to not only suit the listeners needs but to add their own flair to make their companies stand out above the crowd. This company FUNBOT just happens to be one of those companies that meet and exceed; me as a customers expections, by using those little things to make a quality item.
From packaging to quality of the actual headphones FUNBOT stands out. These headphones as you can see from the photos were packaged wonderfully. Within the package you will receive instructions, assorted ear hooks and ear covers or tips; both in small, medium, and large sizes, a cord length adjuster, a charging cable, a storage bag, and the headphones themselves.
As shown in photo the backside of the headphones are magnetic and click together and this is were the magic happens as that is the power on and off switch. While together the unit is off and once you separate the two, the power turns on. This in my opinion is wildly innovative. Next wonderful things to say about these headphones is it's muti-function control center.
After familiarizing yourself with the instructions you will be able to do all of the following (this is an amazing list):
These headphones support bluetooth 4.1 technology and support a calling time of approx 4.5 hours with a standby modes of approx 160 hours. The headphones are lightweight at 13 grams and take approx. only two hours to charge.
This is a great item and so versatile...you are only limited by your imagination. I decided to put around a mirror and it looks wonderful when the sun goes down. Only two buttons to operate this 33ft 100 LED copper copper string-light. The buttons are the on/off and the mode which you have the option of 8 different and entertaining styles. I really have to get more before the holiday's as these are IP65 waterproof rated and it comes with a stake that you can put into the ground to get the maximum charge. Once charged light can last up to 10 hours.
I included some photos and a small video to show one of the modes. Check it out for yourself and see if this item is right for you: Solar LED Lights.

I just got this CREE LED Headlamp in the mail today and boy am I excited about it and how versatile it is. Whether you are out for a night time walk, hunting and/or fishing, working on a vehicles, or just spending the night camping with the family this headlight may be just what you need. I personally got it for the ability to go for walks in the cool night time air. I love how the angle of the beam can be adjusted from 0-45 degrees, this is great if you are going for a night time walk. It has five different modes which add to its versatility. The white beam has a high, low, and S.O.S. feature and there are two red lights on either side that run steady or also in the S.O.S. mode. Oh and check this...it comes with three AAA batteries to get your started.I included a few pictures of packaging and what it looks like when you get the item as well as a quick video showing the different lighting modes. I hope this helps you decide if this great inexpensive item is right for you, check here....CREE LED Headlamp by Street Cat

I am so excited to bring another wonderful Riwbox item into my blogging spotlight. A while ago I got my daughter a pair of Riwbox headphones and was pleasantly surprised about the quality and performance of these versatile headphones.
The main reason I got these XBT-80 headphones by Riwbox is for the option to use either wireless or wired. I will primarily be using them for the wireless feature because when I am on the go I love to not have to worry about getting all tangled up in a corded device or accessory.
In the box you will find instructions, headphones, charging cable, and aux cable. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. The headphones which I got are black/gold, but they are also available in white/silver and purple/white, so there is a nice variety to match your particular style.
To charge the unit you can use the USB charging cable. Either use on laptop or computer with USB slot or use a A/C to USB wall plug which is not included. I also found it very pleasant that these headphones came with an aux cable. This is an amazing deal by itself as I have seen the cable alone be expensive. The aux cable on one end has a 90 degree angled end (which adds some versatility depending on either your device or charging area) and the other is straight, and the cable is braided so you know it is more durable that the non-braided type...so it will last much longer.
All of the controls are on the left earpiece which also includes the port if you wanted to use as a wired pair of headphones if you don't have the ability to charge and utilize the bluetooth 4.0 technology. There is also the charging port as well as a TF card slot...This is totally new and unique and a very great idea in my personal opinion. I haven't been able to try out this slot, as I didn't know this extra feature was built into the headphone and I need to obtain a new card or pull the one that is in my cell phone.
As a side note I wanted to let you know that if you choose to use wired, there is a microphone build into the cord as well, so you will still be able to use with those important phone calls. Also this item is versatile with multiple types of devices such as PC, tablets, phone, and MP3 players (always check with manufacturer to made sure it will work with your device).
Overall I am again excited with Riwbox because of another quality product. From the excellent construction and design to the outstanding quality and performance Riwbox gets another thumbs up from me.
