I love the taste of this mix of chicory & dandelion root. The colour is coffee-like. I drink it without sugar and with a drop of milk and it takes similar to coffee. It's slightly bitter without sugar, but the kind of bitterness that is enjoyable and palatable. The product comes in handy individual teabags inside a saleable plastic bag One teabag is enough to make a strong large mug of 'coffee' in the morning. As it's caffeine-free, I drink it at night without worrying that will affect my sleep. I've noticed a slightly laxative effect if I drink several cups of this a day. A bit pricey.
Although not made for water colour, this 4x4 paper stock is really fantastic for mixed media and zentangle. I use them to create tiny series of mixed media studies . The tan colour can be incorporated into the art piece but I usually gesso the paper and then work on it. It stands heavy, flow and high flow acrylics, water soluble crayons, water mist, drawing inks and basic hand/ machine stitching. I find that this paper is better than other similar tiles with more gsm. My only but is that these are usually a bit pricey.
I got this set due to an emergency to fit it in with an old laptop I was using while my current computer was being repaired. The adapter is small and lightweight, therefore, easy to carry and move around. It has different tabs to click on to adjust the laptop voltage; this varies from laptop to laptop and from geographic areas, so the only thing I had to do is look at my laptop belly, check its voltage and click on the right adapter tab. My main concern before purchasing this set was, though, the plugging head that goes into the computer; however, luckily, the set comes with a varied selection of plugging heads and the one that fits my laptop was there. The only two criticisms I have is 1/ the small adapter tends to heat up a bit and 2/ the non detachable part of the cable is a bit too short. For the rest, this has been a life saver.
I've used this broom both on my wood floors and my concrete front yard to sweep and remove garden drops or little stones; it works perfectly on both surfaces. Good quality rubber broom, too. It really brooms beautifully catching little particles that my normal bristle broom doesn't. The only let down is that the telescopic handle tends to loosen itself a bit and I have to fasten it often
Great selection of washi tape rolls in different widths and sizes printed with vintage motifs. My only 'but' is the fact that the printing is a bit too dark. For the rest, very lovely.
This is a great whimsical pop-up 3D card. It has a beautiful flower & butterfly scene inside and the colour of both the card and the envelope are wonderfully elegant. The card has gold accents and is made of good quality card stock. It has a inner tab that you pull out and it has a large note to write the message. In this way the beautiful card is not damaged but I can still write something meaningful for the person I give it not just a short congratulation. As the card comes without added text I use this for both birthdays, farewells from work colleagues or any other sort of congratulatory event in my life.
I have several rotating pen holders and this is the roomiest of the lot. It is made of good quality sturdy plastic in a lovely ivory colour that fits in perfectly with my Scandy studio. The different compartments are taller than other pen holders so I've been able to fit in all my paint brushes, small or tall, spatula, water brushes and scissors. It rotates 365 degrees beautifully. Very happy with the purchase, as it has tidied up my brush mess in the best possible way.
This hair colour is really great. Easy to apply, good quantity to fully cover my roots and part of my hair, and the results always get me compliments on how healthy and shiny my hair looks.
The package includes a treatment that really rounds up the process of colouring and gives me the shine that I love so much.
The golden bit is great because, although it doesn't show when I first apply the colour, and what you see is a nice dark brown, it shows when the colour fades away. This is good because it holds on to my greys and they look light brown not white.
The colour lasts me on about 3 weeks due to the fact that I have very white grey hair and I don't wash it every day.
Although my hair looks super healthy and shiny after application, the truth is that this colouring makes my hair quite dry due to the fact that it has hydrogen peroxide as one of the ingredients.
For the rest, this is my dyi colouring between salon colouring.
