One of the best CLEANING/ORGANIZING experiences EVER! I admit, I tend to hold onto, well-pretty much, everything! With the 5 kids everything adds up VERY quickly & being somewhat busy, it’s been about 8 years since anything has been purged from the playroom! In comes Stacy….She is my sanity saving grace & without her, I can pretty much bet that I would have lost my mind had I had to walk in there one more time. Within 5 hours, we got rid of 4 bags of trash & 7 bags of donated goods – $175 of some of the most incredible $ ever spent! I would have NEVER EVER been able to do it on my own. I HIGHLY recommend her – not only for playrooms, but for closets, kitchens, offices, garages or ANY organizing needs! AND she is offering Jens List members $5 off her reg. hourly rate!

Nap Sac Having a baby means saying goodbye to the days of traveling with only a carry-on. When baby makes three, your luggage multiplies exponentially, and the schlep factor gets ramped up. The Lilly Gold Nap-Sac is designed to alleviate some of that aggravation. It’s a nylon diaper bag that unfolds to become a changing table and bassinet. Complete with washable sheets and a mattress, the Nap-Sac is perfect for snoozing at the airport during lengthy delays. And it sure beats having to sleep upright in a car seat. Unlike so many other baby products, the Nap-Sac doesn’t require a Ph.D. to use it. Even the baby could probably transform it from bag to bed if given the chance. http://lillygold.com/products/nap-sac.html

Baggus Changing our own shopping habits is one small thing we can do to make a difference. Using one Baggu for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags. One Baggu holds the contents of 2 to 3 plastic grocery bags. Six bags can hold a whole cart full of groceries. Baggu Bag handles are the perfect length: you can hold them in your hand, on your forearm, or over your shoulder. They are made from super strong rip-stop nylon (holds 25 lbs) so they are light (2 oz) and compactable. They fold into a flat 5 by 5 inch pouch that easily slips in a purse or pocket. That way they are always handy when you need them. Baggu bags have a nice big gusset in the bottom so they will sit flat when they are filled (good for eggs & milk.). For more info or to purchase – |
