Laundry problems? Resolved with Whirlpool ® WashSquad App #WhirlpoolWashSquad

Disclosure: This is a post sponsored by Whirlpool in conjunction with Niche Parent network.

 

Do you have laundry problems?  I used to hate doing laundry but when I got my Whirlpool Duet Steam Washer and Dryer a couple years ago things just got better and laundry didn’t seem like so much of a hassle anymore.  I love everything about the set except that it doesn’t assign laundry tasks to other members in the family and it doesn’t track completed chores either.  Apparently Whirlpool® has been spying on me because they have solved my problems with the Whirlpool® WashSquad App!

Authority of hemp: Earth friendly hemp

Disclaimer: I was given a bag of rope great hemp and a t-shirt for this review.

I am a great defender of the use of hemp clothing and revised recently a great t-shirt by authority of hemp. Make graphic t-shirts that are made out of hemp and organic cotton.  Industrial hemp is a very abundant crop that does not require any pesticides to grow because everything else grows. It grows in low levels of rain water, allowing it to be grown in large areas without the need for expensive irrigation or other tools. How much more "green" do could you get than that? It offers superior performance in comparison with cotton and more durable provides added UV protection and moisture wicking. These shirts are so soft and I thought the saying on the front was great, also. They do custom printing for large orders wholesale if you wanted to have your company or organization the hemp rock tee. Simply visit the web site or shoot them an email for more information on wholesale. One of these "t" definitely want to order.

About the hemp DrawString backpack

A perfect size for a visit to the market of farmers or to bring school supplies. They are made of 55% hemp and 45% organic cotton. They are available in a variety of fabric green, natural, pink, purple or red. They measure 17 "height and 13" wide. Hemp is an excellent choice without having to use herbicides, fungicides or pesticides for healthy growth. You will not regret to choose organic hemp industry to do their part in protecting our environment.

One, no regret.

Do It Yourself Mod Podge Halloween #HalloweenMP DIY door hanger

Disclosure: This is a DIY craft post sponsored by PLAID.  I was given material to create a Halloween focused craft post.

 

Our family is big into Halloween.  It is definitely our favorite holiday. It gives the adults a chance to be kids again and it gives our kids the chance to be whatever they want to be.  How can you beat that?  We decorate both inside our home and outside, but if you haven’t been to the store lately you might not realize just how expensive decorations have become.  A Halloween sign ranges anywhere from $14.99 to $39.99 online and in most stores.  Well, worry no more because I am going to share with you how to make a Halloween Door Hanger in a few easy steps with products you can find around the house and through Plaid.

 

Every year we are adding to our arsenal and this year we decided to spruce up the signage so I decided to try working with something using Mod Podge.  I have never used it before and thought this simple project would be a great starting point.

Mod Podge Outdoor (waterbase sealer, glue and finish lets you decoupage for the outdoors)Folk Art Paints in colors of your choosingStencils (or freehand it if you like)Old photo frame (great time to repurpose)

The first step was to cut a scrap board into the size that fits into the frame you are using.  We used a 1/8? board.  Once you have your board spray paint it evenly with Chalkboard Paint and leave to dry.

 

Find Halloween paper to apply to your frame.  We used the Mod Podge ® Design Elements Halloween themed paper supplied from Plaid. Follow the directions via the Mod Podge bottle.  Because of the look we were creating we left the imperfections in the paper.  It added depth into the look of the frame.  We also wanted to add a touch of color so we left gaps large enough to add ribbon in each corner.

 

Once you put on several coats it’s time to measure and cut your ribbons.  We used Mod Podge to apply our ribbons on the frame as well.

 

Once the ribbons are in place we added our black board into the frame.

 

Finally we put Halloween themed stencils where we wanted them and painted with the Folk Art paint from Plaid.  If you are good at freehand you might also want to  pick up a couple different paint pens as well to add small touches here and there.  You can spruce up your outdoor sign with spiders made with Stiffy for a really cute addition.

 

If you are a pumpkin decorator Plaid has the perfect contest for you, the Trick Your Pumpkin Contest.  What’s your favorite kind of decorated pumpkin?  This year we are doing a “Florida Themed” pumpkin here…so be on the lookout on Life with Lisa.  Heck, we might even enter the contest.  If you are interested all you have to do is submit a photo of your most creative pumpkin from September 25-October 24, 2013, and you could win a $250 gift card to Michaels along with a Mod Podge and FolkArt Prize Pack, and bragging rights of winning our 4th Annual Trick Your Pumpkin Contest!

Melee Mayhem month 2013 - M9 Phobis III - #MeleeMayhem

 

Do not bring weapons body to body and set aside the M9 Phobis III.

 

Surplus military tents are some of the best places to buy Apocalypse survival equipment.

The M9 Phobis III is a bayonet and when used with the wrap is transformed into a cutting about tool! Only hooking them together and works like a pair of scissors post-apocalyptic. His long thick blade will go a long way to protect themselves from the undead.
