Mikasa Review

Someone from Mikasa contacted me and offered to send me this beautiful set of Grace dinnerware for a product review! Oh man...that's like offering drugs to an addict, how could I possibly say no!  In my mind you can never have too many dishes and I happen to love Mikasa! Blogging certainly does have some good perks!

I love the design on these dishes and although the background color wouldn't have drawn me in while I was shopping I was surprised at how much I loved it on my table.  The color is a little off on my photos. We've had so many dark, gloomy days that it was hard to get a decent photo! The color is very neutral and it would work well with almost any color of placemats or tablecloth!

They also sent me these beautiful Avenue wine glasses!  I love the design and how the cuts catch the light!

I love that these dishes could be more formal or casual based on your table decor. Very versatile!

I think this set makes a very elegant table!

You can check out more beautiful tableware on the Mikasa website.  Also...if you love solid white dishes, they have some really beautiful ones! I  especially love the pattern called Antique White!  I want those! LOL!

Comfort Works

I love my new slipcover from Comfort Works!

 One of the best perks of blogging is receiving items for product reviews and this one got me really excited!

Comfort Works offereded to send me one of their slipcovers for my Ikea EKTORP sofa.  I picked out this blue striped fabric for mine but they have a very nice selection of other fabrics as well!

I love my white slipcovers so I was not sure how I would feel about a stripe but I love it!  It's nice to be able to have a change once in awhile. It keeps things fresh!  I really don't know how I lived with a sofa that didn't have slipcovers before this! I LOVE being able to wash my covers so easily!

 The fabric is so soft, much softer than the white denim type of fabric that comes with the Ikea sofa.  It makes the sofa more comfortable because it's so soft!  The quality of these slipcovers is much better than the ones that come with the sofa too.

If you are looking for slipcovers I highly recommend Comfort Works for IKEA Ektorp sofa! They also carry other items like custom cushion covers, curtains and quilt coverlets.

HomeGoods! My Favorite Place to Shop!

This is a compensated review by BlogHer and HomeGoods.

I was so excited with the opportunity to do a little shopping courtesy of HomeGoods and BlogHer! As you probably know, HomeGoods is one of my favorite places to shop! I can always find something there which makes it the best place to shop for the holidays!  I was given $50 to spend and it's amazing how much that can buy there!  I had all intentions of doing some Christmas shopping for family and friends but then my daughter, Lauren and I both found things we really wanted instead! Lauren and I justified this selfish move by saying that most of our family and friends read my blog regularly and they would see their gifts!

 We really need a new throw for the living room.  They had a great selection of these and this one was only $14.99 and it's the perfect shade of blue for my home!  I love the texture and it is so soft!

I have really been wanting a magnifying mirror like this since I used one of my girlfriends a few months ago. I originally wanted the kind that lights up and they had that type and at $50 it was a great deal...I know because I've been shopping around for one of these for awhile.  I decided to get one that didn't light up because it was too good of a deal to pass up at $14.99! Lauren and I both LOVE this for plucking our eyebrows! The only bad thing is that you can see every pore and wrinkle!

Lauren got so excited when she saw this pink and black lap desk!  She's always doing homework on her bed so this will be great for her!  This was also $14.99. I guess that's a popular price at HomeGoods!

So for a grand total (with tax) of $49.13 I walked out with 3 beautiful gifts for my daughter and I! The fun we had walking around the store picking out gifts for ourselves was priceless! We had a blast! Thank you HomeGoods and BlogHer!

You can win $50 HomeGoods gift card to spend any way you like! See below for more information:
