SKIL 360 Quick-Select Review and GIVEAWAY!

Pin It
I was given the opportunity to try out the new SKIL 360 Quick-Select, a 4 V max cordless screwdriver that features a fully integrated bit management system (including 12 of the most commonly used bits!) built into the front of the screwdriver in a rotating compartment. And I can tell you, as a life-long Ikea customer, that this tool totally rocks my socks for so many reasons!

One of the neatest things about this screwdriver is that it comes equipped with the tool industry's first-ever USB charging capability.  

 How cool is that?  To charge it you can plug it in directly to a wall outlet or, get this....to your computer!  

This rotating compartment stores all the bits so you don't lose a thing, *ahem*, not that I've ever done that before!

You rotate the bit compartment by hand and then use the handy dandy black lever at the top to push the chosen bit into the barrel. The low-battery indicator is also on the top too!

There is even a flashlight near the bit head that helps you get your most pressing jobs done in the lowest light conditions :-)  You know, so when you are putting that Ikea furniture together at 1 am cause you found your second wind after the kids went to bed and you finished vacuuming your house, cleaning all the toilets, and putting away 5 loads of laundry...not that I've ever done that either!

Want to win one of these babies?  

SKIL Tools is giving away ONE 360 Quick-Select Screwdriver to ONE of you!!

BOOK REVIEW and GIVEAWAY: Terrariums Reimagined

Pin It
So not too long ago I received the coolest book called, Terrariums Reimagined by Kat Geiger.  And as you can imagine it's all about TERRARIUMS! Since I am just a little bit (ahem, a lot!) in love with terrariums these days...ummm, have you seen my Instgram feed lately?...I was super excited to dive into this book and learn about my new favorite way to not kill plants!

This book is a full-color craft book that show you how to make AND maintain 24 different plant environments in pretty cool containers to boot. As I am learning, one of the best parts of planting a terrarium is that they make the most unique decor pieces and really speak of your personality. 

This book has so much good info to offer.  I had no clue there were so many different kinds of terrariums! Each type has a chapter devoted to it along with planting instructions and project ideas for making your own.

And I've got to tell you that the pictures in this book are outstanding.  The vessels that Kat Geiger chose to create these terrariums are so, so lovely. They are like pieces of artwork.  And they really help you think outside the box for what kind of vessels you may want to use to create your own terrariums.

How cool would it be to make an Edible Mushroom Case?  Umm, I had NO clue this was even a possibility before reading this book!

All that to say...two thumbs up...4 stars...I love this book!  And if you are remotely interested in making your own terrariums for you or a friend (hey, they make fabulous gifts) you NEED to get this book!

Soooo, how about a giveaway to get you even more excited to get creating in the world of terrariums?
I thought you might like that!
