The labels quickly print and then just peel off the back and apply the label sticker wherever you need it.

I love that the labels are waterproof, oil proof, and scratch proof – perfect for labeling leftovers, or whatever you want to organize! You can find the Phomemo D30 portable label printer on Amazon.
One of my favorite ways to be productive is to pop in an audiobook whenever I am doing mindless tasks. Such as running errands or sorting laundry or going for a walk. Audible has the largest collection of audiobooks with all sorts of titles from self-help and motivation to fictional stories you can get swept away into. I’m excited for the new exclusive series with Mel Robbins titled Here’s Exactly What To Do. It’s podcast series with short episodes that are easy to sneak into your week.
With an Audible Premium Plus Membership, not only do you get your choice of audiobook each month, you’ll also have access to the Plus Catalog with tons of audiobooks included! I love that there are titles for everyone in my household included like The Sesame Street podcast for the kids and an exciting true crime podcast Death by Unknown Event for the adults!
If you’re wishing for more sleep this year, turn to PeachSkinSheets for the most comfortable sheets I’ve tried that will upgrade your bedroom! PeachSkinSheets are made of a soft luxurious 1500 thread count level of softness. The sheets work wonders to help you feel cool by wicking way moisture and being breatheable. They’re even hypoallergenic so even if you have sensitive skin you’ll be comfortable all night.
PeachSkinSheets are naturally stain resistant and don’t fade in the wash! I also love that they don’t shrink or pill and come out of the dryer without wrinkles meaning they look great wash after wash. They have a range of gorgeous colors to choose from, like this subtle sage green or go for a bold navy or even a classic white sheet – whichever you choose you’re going to love your new sheets!
Are you looking for thoughtful personalized gifts for your Valentine this year? Turn to Groovy Groomsmen Gifts for thoughtful personalized gifts. A unique gift idea is a personalized Bottle Opener! They have styles that can be attached to a wall to quickly and easily open a drink without having to mess with a tool. The built-in magnet even catches the caps! The guy that loves watches will be thrilled with a personalized watch or watch box!
I also love their assortment of great groomsmen knives! I personalized knives for my older boys this year for Christmas and they each got a unique style that matched their style. The knives are engraved and personalized with their names which makes it such a wonderful gift and keepsake.
Get the family ready to tackle wet weather this winter and spring with Sperry! You know you can trust Sperry’s line of shoes to keep you playing, no matter the weather. The brand started with the inspiration that you should be able to stay steady on your feet, even on a wet ship deck, and they’ve been helping people spend more time enjoying the land and sea ever since.
My son tested out the Big Kid’s Bowline Boot in our recent snowfall and it kept his feet warm and comfortable while sledding, a snowball fight, and lots of time outside playing in the winter weather. I love that they’re not heavy and clunky like traditional snow boots, but they were still up to the task! They have a durable and comfortable foam footbed and a non-marking rubber outsole for wet and dry traction. Another favorite style is their Big Kid’s Bowline Storm Boot that are perfect for everyday wear but durable and water-resistant to tackle the weather.

It’s been an extra cold winter here this year, but Atarni Kids Winter Gloves came to the rescue! They offer waterproof gloves that have a soft fleece inner lining and insulating velvet, and then a wind and waterproof nylon outer that keeps them comfortable and dry while out in the cold. I really liked the integrated strap that helps cinch the gloves at the wrist to help keep out snow – it worked great!

It’s compact design makes it easy to take anywhere and the extra storage pocket will let you bring along your supplies and keep everything together so you’re hands free and comfortable during your activities.

The mats are wipeable and water-resistant making them easy to wipe clean, and then store away to use again! They are made of a bonded leather with a soft flocked suede backing you’ll love. I adore this Midi Square in Knoll, a beautiful steely green and the generous 54″ square design has so many uses!
The smaller Micro mat in Stone Stripe, or your favorite print, is perfect as a changing mat, placemat, pet mat, or desk mat! I love that it can be easily folded up and stash in your purse for a clean surface for your little one while dining out! My boys would have loved the Block print Micro with a cute town scene.
