Love The Artificial Christmas Tree Idea


Two years ago we purchased an artificial Christmas tree. Best.Idea.Ever.
No more trying to figure out what shape the tree we were looking at in the great outdoors was going to look like when we got it home. No more having to water the tree, and no more cleaning up all the needles that fall off. All.the.time.

When I shopped for an artificial tree, I looked for an bought a traditional type, but have since learned about three types of Christmas Artificial trees that are popular during the Christmas holiday season. These three are the Upside Down Christmas Tree, Fibre Optic Christmas trees, and the Christmas Palm Tree. True to the traditional trees, these artificial trees are available in various heights and also colors. Not sure if traditional trees are available in all the colors some of the upside down trees and fiber optic trees are such as black, red, and gold.

Benefits of each of these tree types include additional decorating space with the Upside Down Christmas tree especially for gifts, luminous light without any heat with the Fiber Optic Christmas tree, and the perfect decoration for a tropical environment that the Christmas Palm tree provides.

Many stores are offering their artificial trees at a discount this time of year. Why not grab one now at a great price and be all ready for Black Friday and the decorating season.

I Love Christmas Music

Christmas Song List Star Ornament
Each year I like to add to my Christmas Song CDs. I have Christmas theme CDs with instrumental music, jazz music, and even a Christmas Jimmy Buffet CD.

Music is just a part of my life and it only seems natural to enjoy it especially during the holidays. One of the Christmas Song CDs we have is a Snoopy CD that my Mom gave our daughter when she was young.

We have our favorites of course that we enjoy each year. It's not too far away, only a couple months before we'll be singing "Deck The Halls"!

Shine on With Moroccan OIl

Moroccan Oil for SHine and Manageability
I have been using Moroccan Oil for about 18 months. It has definitely given my hair shin, and also noticeable manageability. I use a little pea size amount each day on damp hair. I let my hair air dry which also has the added benefit of having the oil soak into the hair. I have also noticed using the oil seems to have helped my scalp be more healthy.

The Moroccan Oil is perfect for all hair types, and did I mention it smells GREAT?!

The Rechargeable Wine Opener by Oster 4207

Oster 4207 wine bottle opener
My parents introduced me to this wine opener, the Oster 4207 Rechargeable Battery Wine Opener. I was a little apprehensive about using it since I had my Rabbit opener, but thought I'd give it a try.

What I found is that it is a delight to use. The wine opener is easy to handle, works efficiently, looks good, and holds a charge with up to 30 openings per charge. Just place the cylinder over the wine bottle, press the button and the corkscrew descends into the bottle cork. Press the button again and the cork descends and falls out of the opener.

The Oster Wine Opener amazes and delights at how it works so efficiently and with ease.

Pawn Stars Season One DVD

Pawn Stars Season One
Do you watch Pawn Stars on the History Channel? It is a favorite of my family in part because it is a show we can all watch together and also because we learn and have fun at the same time.

The Harrison family owns the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas and that is what the show is about. During the show we see people bring their items into the store to see how much they can sell the item for.

The Season One Pawn Stars DVD is great for the entire family.

Watch your favorite pawn shop family in the premiere season and meet Richard "The Old Man", Rick "The Spotter", Corey "Big Hoss", and of course "Chumlee". Watch as Rick inspects and authenticates items people bring into the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas. See the experts give their evaluations of items and their history behind them. Watch as the negotiations unfold to see if the shop will buy the item and at what price?

Visit Pawn Stars Show for more information about the characters, the experts, and fun stats about the pawn industry.
