ArtToFrames Photo To Canvas Gallery Wrap 1.5 Inch - 16x20 - Tomoson


A Tomoson Review - #arttoframes



What's Included:


  • One 16x20 canvas wrapped with photo of your choice



Directions:


  1. Simply go to ArtToFrames Photo on Amazon and Click on Customize Now
  2. Select My Computer and Choose your photo.

  3. Click Add To Cart and Check Out as usual.


My Review:

I was nervous about the smaller image Guidelines compared to other companies where you normally want to upload the larger file size possible for a quality print. The max size support is 7MB in .jpeg or .png format. (They recommend the file to be greater than 1 MB and at least 2500x3500px photo resolution.) This as apposed to, for example Easy Canvas Prints website where you have File size limit 20MB PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, and TIF files accepted. But with all this being said, the photo turned out great! If you watch my video, you will see a comparison of a photo canvas from ArtToFrames from here on Amazon and from Easy Canvas Prints website. You will see the quality of the Amazon canvas is actually better and the full retail price is less expensive as well. I couldn't be happier with this purchase!

Product Review of Ultra Luxurious Grey Shabby 3 Piece Kitchen Curtain Tier & Valance Set By GoodGram - FB



A Full Set

I spent some time looking for a contemporary kitchen curtain. I cannot believe how many are similar in price, picture all 3 pieces but then read the reviews to find out it's only 1 panel or just the valance. This set is the whole set, all 3 pieces!

Is It Grey

One thing I noted when I first opened the package is that the color is strange, not a bad strange, but just not a standard grey. I am a reviewer, so I read others reviews to get an idea of what issues or things that might be important to others. This is something that got this set a few bad reviews, people went as far as to say it is green. I do not think it is green, it's grey just like a grey with green or blue tint to it. I took photos of it next to different colored walls and in different lighting so you can see how different the color can look given the conditions. Strangely it looks most grey next to a blue wall and outside in direct sunlight. The color is versatile and would go with just about any color in your kitchen.
   


Know Your Window Size Before Ordering

I, unfortunately, didn't bother looking at the size and this is much bigger than I expected. Our kitchen window is smaller and the curtains are much to large for it. I did take it to a standard size window and that looks like it will be a great fit. We will be moving soon, so i'm going to wait and see what size the new kitchen will be, If it's smaller as well, i will just alter these because I really like them and want them in my kitchen.

Let The Light Shine In

They are not blackout curtains, which i like. They allow sunlight in while still providing privacy.

I love everything about these. It's a full set, they are modern, the color is versatile and would match just about any kitchen color, quality material, machine washable, and they let the sun in while keeping privacy.

Product Review Anbero Bluetooth FM Transmitter - FB

Photos:


My Review:

Why did I need this: When our 2nd child came along, we decided on an Avalanche for the family vehicle (no minivan). They stopped manufacturing them so all you can do is buy an older one, which we ended up with a 2004. While i LOVE our truck, that also means we ended up with a 2004 factory stereo. CD player, but no auxiliary input, no bluetooth, no good. I really didn't want to spend the money on a aftermarket stereo and now we don't need to after stumbling across this great deal.

It works great and has extra features that others don't:*Volume control
*sd card reader
*choose of any station up and down the dial
*skip/back up songs
*Digital readout
*usb charging port
*headphone jack

Color Options: The box does show red or blue options but I don't see an option online to choose which color you get. I was really hoping for red since we have a red truck, but we got blue. It's nice looking though.
The Bad: The only bad thing I have to say about this device is the negative pole on the plug seems to get stuck in outlet and feels like it is breaking. I've tested in my truck (both outlets), my car and my adaptor. It is kind of hard to put it and feels like it is going to break when you pull it out. With that being said, a simple adaptor should do the trick so i'm not pulling the actual device in and out, risking breaking it or my truck. I should note, I would plug it and forget it, but the truck feeds power to a plugged in device, even when shut off. If we forget to unplug the GPS and don't drive for a day or two, the truck battery dies. I can't say this would do that, but now we are in a habbit of just unplugging all devices from the outlets.
Other Uses: While this is obviously intended to be used in your car, you can get the nifty gadget I used in my video which converts an car charger or device to a house charger or device. SO you can actually use this in your house too! Great for lake and beach houses or cabins, which typically don't have the greatest radio reception or wifi service. You can listen to your own music when and wherever you'd like. In doors or in your vehicle.

While I love just about everything about this, the darn plug is a major issue. I debated actually going down to 2 or 3 stars because of it, but since there is an easy fix for it (although I do have to purchase and extra device) I still do really like it and it will be an item I use daily.

Roastabags - Self Basting Oven Bags (Pack of 8) Review - AMZReviewTrader

A AMZReviewTrader Mission

What's Included:

8 RoastABags and 8 nylon ties

My Review:

I received these quite a while ago, but have not been able to use them because they are much smaller than I expected them to be. The picture shows a bag on top of a chicken. While it may appear that the bag is larger than the chicken, it does not fit. Finally i just bought some cornish hens because I knew they would fit. The instructions say to toss in a teaspoon of flour and shake, then to tie the bag and cut 6 one inch slits in the top. Because the hens only took up about half of the bag per hen i only cut 3 slits. The instructions also provide a cooking time guide, but I went with the time provided on the hens instead because it was at a lower temperature.

When the house started to smell good I knew they were ready. My husband pulled them out and they were perfect! There is a bunch of juice in the bag, so getting them out was a bit messy, but all the juice made for some delicious gravy as well. This is a super easy way to roast meat. I'm going to have to get some larger bags so I can do whole chickens and roasts. But I cannot believe I've never cooked meat this way before. It turns out much better in the bag than in a roaster and you don't have to baste because it does all the work for you.






Rating and Why:

(4/5 HungryHollys)

Took one star off for being too small to cook a roast or a whole chicken which is pictured on the packaging. However, the product works as described and I would buy again, just a larger size

Bandana Bibs, Unisex 4-Pack+2 gifts by Pashosh - Tomoson


A Tomoson Review


What's Included:


  • 4 Bibs (Blue with White stars, White with Black Anchors, Grey withWhite Dots, White with Blue/Black/Yellow Arrows)

  • Pacifier Clip

  • Bottle Strap

Recommended Care:


Wash in cold water and lay flat to dry.

My Review:

My daughter has GERD (acid reflux) so she spits up a LOT! Some days we just leave her in just a diaper to save us from changing her outfit a million times. However, when we go out, we usually put a bib on her to save the outfit. These are a super cute addition to our stash. 

When I ordered this, I knew it'd be more of a "boy" set but I figured we could pull it off and make it super cute on our little girl. I had success with all but one, I just can't find a way to make the arrow bandana bib girly. But hey, no one ever said it was suppose to be. 

The quality of these are great. They are 100% cotton on the front and 100% polyester on the back. The back feels like felt almost. The combination makes for a pretty absorbent bib. 

The set comes with 2 "gifts". It's a bottle strap and a pacifire holder. The bottle strap isn't the most useful for us, see video for details. But that got me thinking and since my daughter won't take a pacifire, I repurposed the pacifire holder as a "keep your toys close" holder. Works great, you can attach it to the baby and then put a toy, like the pink ball in the photos, on the other end, and then she can't drop it. Comes in handy in a car seat.

Rating and Why:


(5/5 HungryHollys)

Overall I really like this set. Would also make for a trendy baby shower gift. Everything came just as described. The quality is really good. They put foresight into the sizing and made it easy to adjust so can be worn newborn on up.

Purina® Beyond Dog Snacks - BzzAgnet

BzzAgent Review

https://www.bzzagent.com


What's Included:

  • Chicken & Barley Biscuits

  •  White Chicken & Apples Jerky Strips


  •  Salmon & Oats Biscuits



  •  White Chicken & Carrot Jerky Strips


  •  White Meat Chicken Cutlets


  •  COUPONS :D



My Review:

My dog has many food allergies, so we have to be super picky about what we give her, even her treats. She is a 6 month old full breed Beagle Puppy. We've tried several different products and this one is a winner. They contain no corn, soy, wheat, poultry by-product meal or artificial colors, flavors and preservatives.

I was actually given a variety of flavors and types for her to try. A few did not work for us, so I will give you a quick overview of them here.

  • White Meat Chicken CUTLETS - The CUTLETS are hard to break into smaller pieces. They are hard and chewy. Despite it being difficult to break into smaller pieces, they certainly can be but no matter how small of a chunk i'd break off to feed her, she wouldn't ever chew it all the way before swallowing and would end up throwing up the piece whole. The CUTLETS do not work for us.
  • White Chicken & Carrot AND White Chicken & Apples JERKY STRIPS - The JERKY STRIPS are softer and work great. They smell yummy. They are easy to break into smaller pieces and the dog loves them. I do not think she has a preference between the chicken and carrot or the chicken and apples, she likes them both.
  • Chicken & Barley AND Salmon & Oats BISCUITS - Our dog is allergic to salmon so didn't try those. We gave her the Chicken & Barley and she has done great with them. I wasn't sure if she might have allergy issues since we know she has some grain allergies, but they are perfect. Out of all the different types, I like the BISCUITS the best for our needs. They break easily so can be feed in several different sizes depending on if using for training or just for a treat.

We like the Purina Beyond brand and find it comparable to the more expensive brands like Blue Buffalo, but definitely not as expensive and can be found in more stores.

Rating and Why:



(5/5 HungryHollys)

When you have a dog with allergies you really become grateful to find less expensive, yet quality items to feed them. While some of these products did not work for us, they are a great all around product. Even those cutlets that don't work for our dog, I can see working for a dog that likes a rawhide type treat.

Where to Buy:

You can buy these in store at Walmart (but call first to see if your Walmart carries them. Our local Walmart carries the Beyond cat food, but not the Beyond Dog food. Grr. They also do not carry any of the treats..yet)

Or you can buy them online at Amazon:

I give both the Calily & Radha Beauty Oil Diffusers 4/5 HungryHollys. As stated above, they both have pros and cons. I personally do like the Radha Beauty Diffuser because I like the more extreme mist.
