The Back-to-School Season is in full swing in most areas, and Fall is fast approaching! Here are a few great finds for this time of year - and they are even great for some Holiday Gift ideas!

Bluevua has developed the perfect countertop Reverse Osmosis Water System for your home. Unlike its competitors, the Bluevua system does not require a plumber to install or connect, and there are no plastics used in the filtration process. And you can forget about all those water bottles. Did you know that 91% of packaging waste ends up in landfills? At Bluevua, they’re working to change that. The packaging now uses 100% recyclable materials. By choosing Bluevua, you’re taking part in creating a smaller footprint for a healthier world.

This season, add a new friend to the household with LEGO Desk Pets, the follow-up to the mini LEGO Botanicals sets. The activity boxes let kids and adults build unique mini-models that can live on a desk or any place that needs a friend! The set includes all the LEGO elements needed to build a mini pet along with paper punch-outs and stickers to create accessories and cozy living spaces for them. Plus, a 36-page book lets families learn all about their new pet. Currently, there are two four-legged friends available for adoption: Corgi and Pig, but later this year the collection will expand with Panda and Koala.

For many Millennials and Gen Xers, Caboodles was practically a rite of passage - a colorful organizer that lived on dorm desks, bathroom counters and bedroom vanities throughout the '80s and '90s. Now, the brand is giving that nostalgia a collegiate twist with its new Caboodles School Spirit On-The-Go Girl Organizer. Available in school-inspired color combinations that let students rep universities like Michigan, Texas, Alabama, Penn State, Auburn, Tennessee and dozens of other fan-favorite programs, the organizer is designed to bring some zen to the chaotic college life. It keeps makeup, skincare, hair accessories, toiletries, school supplies and other everyday essentials organized in one compact case that's easy to toss into a suitcase, gym bag or backpack. Made in the USA.

Great Products For The New Year #NewYear2026

We love to try a variety of new things all year long, but we find it so fun and refreshing at the beginning of the year! Check out these finds:

Shady Lady was started 5 years ago because the founder couldn't find a hat that fit her well. While doing research, she learned that all hats are made from the measurements of a man's head, which is why they never look good on women, but they are changing all of that by making the best-fitting women's hats! They also make matching kids hats for the mommy and me look. Shady Lady was noticed by buyers at Macy's and now sells on macys.com as well as Ron Jon Surf Shops, Amazon, and over 50 other stores across the country. As the only company making hats to fit women, they are positioned to dominate this market.

Since many people are looking to refresh their workspaces for the New Year, the 3-Tier Rotating Desk Organizer would be a great addition to your office space. It’s designed to clear up desk clutter while adding a really cute, functional touch to a home office or in the workplace!

How does Rust Guard work? Insert – Place Rust Guard in your dishwasher’s cutlery basket and leave it inside. Protect – The aluminum core attracts rust particles in the water. Enjoy – Your dishes and dishwasher stay clean, safe, and rust-free!

Relic Modern #BookTober

When it comes to my books, I love to store them as well as display them to create a space I find beautiful. This can include a bookshelf, a side table, or a simple little knick-knack to add to the books. Justin Hossle is the owner, designer, and craftsman of Relic Modern, a mid-century modern furniture and decor company. He is a self-taught craftsman and designer, and all of his pieces are created using a combination of trial-and-error and instinct. The signature look of his pieces incorporates a beautiful high-end Baltic birch layered material with rich brown walnut faces.

Sold as a pair, either with an “edge grain” face or a walnut veneered face, they have cork padding on the bottom to hold them in place. These bookends will look great on your bookshelf, no matter your design aesthetic!

EnviroBiotics Home Purifier

When Spring and Summer hit, we become acutely aware of different kinds of allergens, specifically in our homes. And I do everything I can to keep my family healthy so we can keep up with our busy schedule. That is why I am excited to introduce EnviroBiotics, an innovative line of eco-friendly wellness products that’s redefining how we clean and purify our indoor spaces - no chemicals, no gimmicks, just nature’s own probiotics. With prices starting at $89 for the Mini (it’s super cute), this is a sustainable, accessible gift idea perfect for health-conscious consumers and families. Unlike traditional home purifiers or harsh cleaners, EnviroBiotics uses beneficial microflora probiotics to naturally tackle allergens, pathogens, and mold spores.

Devices like the Biologic Mini or compact Biotica 800 for small spaces or the larger unit BA2080 for spaces up to 2,600 sq. ft., release billions of probiotics that settle on surfaces, consume irritants, and dramatically decrease the allergen concentration in just eight days of use to create a healthier indoor ecosystem. Think fresher air, less dust, and fewer asthma triggers, all without a drop of bleach. The benefits are clear: an improved indoor environment with virus neutralization on surfaces and objects in as little as 15 minutes, relief from allergies and pet odors, and a low-maintenance design that works 24/7 with cartridges that last 90 days and then can automatically be refilled. Made from all-natural plant- and soil-derived ingredients, it’s non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for kids, pets, and the planet. From portable sprayers for cars and boats to HVAC-connected systems for bigger spaces, EnviroBiotics fits any lifestyle. Backed by clinical studies showing real allergen reduction and global expert endorsements, this isn’t just a product, it’s a movement toward cleaner, greener, healthy living. With Mother’s Day around the corner (May 11, 2025), the Mini is a great gift idea for the health-conscious woman in your life.

I have used the sponges in the past, and was in love with those as well! Spongelle created by Elaine Binder an internationally trained perfumer dedicated to discovering unique scents for her diffusers, candles, parfums, body buffers, lotions and body washes.

The Spongelle Diffusers add a decorative touch to any room. They include a custom hand-blown glass vase that holds 8oz of the scented oil and a handsewn floret with a cotton wick floret will delight any room with scent and beauty. Created by the hand of an artist, the Spongellé florets are hand sewn and made of a natural tapioca fiber. Each floret has a cotton wick to infuse the flower when placed in a diffuser oil. The time released fragrance will linger for up to 8 weeks. Enjoy captivating colorful beauty as your floret becomes steeped in one of Spongellé's alluring fragrances. We got the Blackberry Diffuser, and the entire house has that sweet scent, and the beautiful flower has turned bluish purple, and it is so pretty on my counter top!

 Spongelle Botanica Private Reserve Candles is a collection of luxurious and exclusive fragrances that transcend alluring florals, deep aromas and succulent berries. Gift-ready in a delicately adorned box, the included wooden wick crackles and flickers like a wood-burning fire, transforming any room into a luxurious experience. Hand-poured locally, all soy candles are non-toxic and made with extracts of rosehip, hibiscus, and green tea. All candles can burn up to 50 hours. The vertical wooden wick ensures an even burn - no more wasted wax at the end of your candle! We received the Peony Flower Candle, and I am in love. You can smell the aroma when it is not even lit! I love it!

Virtail For #FathersDay2023

Dad's do not always want tools or ties. Some dad's appreciate a good art piece or a functional item for the home. At Virtail, their mantra is Beauty Made Accessible For All. They believe that beauty is for everyone irrespective of gender, age, class or lifestyle. Which is why they have brought together some of the best brands in the business from the exclusive to the affordable, from the elusive to the obtainable, from the ordinary to the extraordinary.

We got this amazingly gorgeous cast-iron teapot. "I am a Lilac teapot, strong and stout with my cast iron body, I sure stand out. Here’s my handle, there’s my spout..." There’s an infuser hidden inside. And this is simply a work of art! I have it on display because it really is so beautiful, however, of course we could use it to actually make tea too!

ButterTree Blankets For #MothersDay2023

Have I mentioned how if I get a blanket for a gift, like I am the happiest person! I can never have too many blankets! ButterTree Blankets carry inspirational and uplifting gifts to show someone you care. Their super soft and warm blankets are something anyone would enjoy. The "I Love You Mom" blanket is the perfect choice for Mother's Day. This cozy blanket features a loving message that will remind your mom of how much you care. Packaged in a beautiful gift box, it's the ideal choice for those looking for the perfect Mothers Day gifts from their daughter or son.

At ButterTree, they do not use digital print for design transfer. They use a dye process that fully blends the colors with individual fibers. This ensures a high-definition design that won’t fade or bleed. The blankets are five inches longer than other blankets, as they don’t want our customers getting cold feet. The durable microfleece is both lightweight and breathable. The premium fabrics undergo strict quality control, are machine washable, and will always keep their rich and fluffy feel.

I love my blanket! It is by far one of the softest blankets I have ever had and I fight with the boys over who gets it - even though it says "Mom" (that's me!) on it! I guess I need to get them ButterTree Blankets! I love that the are so bold.

Lovely Poo Poo Bamboo Toilet Paper

It takes roughly 100 years to grow to the maturity level required for high-quality virgin toilet paper. It will only take 2 months to 2 years for bamboo to be mature. The good side is bamboo is a sort of grass. That means it not only grows quickly, but also regenerates by itself, avoiding replanting after cutting. Furthermore, it consumes CO2 - pulling carbon dioxide from the air 3 times faster than trees. That's brilliant news, since carbon dioxide is a major contributor to global warming. So not only is Lovely Poo Poo bamboo toilet paper good for your bum, it is good for the environment! Win/win!

Bamboo toilet paper is much faster! It is fast dissolved in the water. It is the same as it in the environment. Bamboo toilet paper is 100% biodegradable. It decomposes quickly and spontaneously, leaving no sign of its presence on the earth. In addition, it is made of 100% bamboo. As widely known, bamboo is super sustainable, and it grows super-fast compared with trees. It can keep growing after being harvested, so there’s no need to replant it.

I love the packaging, I just laughed my butt off (no pun intended) when I saw the box. I will save that surprise for you. And the actual toilet paper wrappers are gorgeous! As well as this TP actually works and I favor a good TP brand! I had never used bamboo before, and it is strong yet gentle and really works great! No mess, no fuss. Perfect!
