Silicone Collapsible Funnel - Set of 2

Disclaimer: I got this at a discounted price for my honest and unbiased opinion
Collapsible Funnels!
Such a brilliant idea because funnels are such an odd shape and don't always fit nice in your kitchen.
They are super easy to collapse and un-collapse
Are flexible and dishwasher safe!
I was satisfied with this purchase, it stayed nicely in place so that I could pour any liquid into a smaller hole.

Baby Bandana Drool Bibs By: Feli star

Disclaimer: I got this product for a discounted price for my unbiased opinion.

Bandana Drool Bibs.

Pros:
They are stylish
The material is soft
The designs are gorgeous
I love that you can reverse the bib so instead of just 4 you get 8 different styles.
I love that its buttons instead of Velcro

Cons:
They need more snaps for a tighter fit
They say unisex but there were 2 of the 4 I wouldn't of put on my boys, but I don't put any type of pink on my boys.
Don't love that they have to be hand washed that's just hard to always remember to do

I think all in all this is a great purchase and absorbs the drool fairly well.

Cleaning Pillows

Most people buy new pillows after so long but apparently mine just felt just right that why ruin getting another one.

I also put pillow covers over them and cleaned them so I just never really cared to clean my pillows.
These aren't the best pictures BUT the one was really dirty....I'm embarrassed to say I think I've had it my whole life, almost 25 years if not, I've had it for a VERY long time.

I decided I might as well at least try cleaning them. WOW they are cleaner, but takes sometime and I don't plan on doing this very often.

Here is the link to someone else's blog about it (coming soon, pinterest wasn't working right)

before: don't mind the cute little foot


I was advised to soak them in the tub for an hour or so first

I used hot water, 1/2 cup - 1 cup of bleach, 1/2 cup of borax and I didn't have powdered dishwasher, just the tab so I cut 2-3 tabs open.

Then we rung them out and put them in the washer on the hottest setting with the same mix and added detergent.

Then we put the pillows in the dryer with two balls a few times to get them really dry.

After =]
It was a success

3 day teeth whitening

http://www.pinterest.com/pin/23010648071919836/

It doesn't say if you do it morning & night but I figured that's what you did.

How my teeth looked before I started 10:00am : my teeth are more yellowish in person but no matter how I took the picture it made my teeth look still white. So we will see if there was a difference by day 3




The first day...ew it's so gross and after the third day I was just done with doing the routine. And I don't think it looks that much different. My husband did point out that it's possible it works better if your teeth are stained differently. So if it was coffee stains it might brighten your teeth better then other stains.

They are maybe a little whiter but not as much difference as the post's picture.

So I wouldn't recommend this.

no heat day time curls

http://www.buzzfeed.com/verymuchso/17-ways-to-never-have-a-bad-hair-day-again  #4 on the list

When I got out of the shower I brushed my hair and put it into 2 sections and twisted them tight and constantly twisted them on and off until my hair dried. It took about an hour or so, but my hair is thin and already pre curly but it is simple enough now did it work..... yeah not too bad, I probably could of let it dry a little longer

5 minute curls


5 minute curls, I already have wavy/curly hair but not nice curls and hate curling tons of strains of hair to get this curl so I tried it.
It did take only about 5 minutes. It gives volume it looks semi weird so I ended up fixing two curls I make it a little better but I like this pin :)
It's very helpful being a mom of two kids!
