    Jamberry Nails Review & Giveaway!

    I love going to the nail salon and getting my nails done. I always have two problems though. If I go for a manicure, it lasts about 2 days before it chips and starts peeling.  If I get acrylic nails, my nails break and are so weak after the 2 weeks. Do you have these same problems? [...]

I love going to the nail salon and getting my nails done. I always have two problems though.

  1. If I go for a manicure, it lasts about 2 days before it chips and starts peeling. 
  2. If I get acrylic nails, my nails break and are so weak after the 2 weeks.

Do you have these same problems? Jamberry Nails are so different than what is currently offered for nails. They are not the plastic press ons from back in the day, they are nail wraps. They wrap on your nail. Since you are not putting chemicals on your nails, they stay strong and healthy. Also since it is not polish it is not chipping.

Dawn from Jamberry Nails sent me a set to try and review! I got the set of wraps , a couple samples, and the Jamberry Nails catalog. The book is filled with so many possible designs, and just in case you can’t find your perfect design you can upload your own pics and design your own! I see Mickey Heads in my future!

The nails were a little tricky to get on the first time, matching them up to my nail and trimming all the edges. I definitely recommend you buy the application kit as all the tools will make the job so much better. Even though my nails aren’t perfect as you see in the pics, I LOVE them!!! I am sure practice makes perfect and Dawn says that see can put them on in about 15 minutes. It probably took me about twice that time.

nails day 1

I have done all the daily things and the nails still look like I just put them on. I have washed dishes (scrubbed pans), cooked, crafted, and blogged and my nails are not chipped or coming off.  Jamberry Nail wraps typically last up to 2 weeks on fingers and up to 6 weeks on toes. Dawn says, “I normally change mine on my fingers every 7-10 days just because I get bored and want a change.” I think I would agree, I would be tempted to change for every outfit. :) My husband even thought they were cute. I also noticed the nail wraps have prevented me from picking at/chewing my nails.

The cost is perfect too! Just $15!! That is about the same for a manicure and less than a full set and they are definitely worth their value.

Please check out Dawn’s site here and visit her on Facebook.  She has graciously offered to donate 2 sheets of winners choice and an application kit for a giveaway!

Opinion Place Review

Opinion Place® gives you a chance to express your opinions, get rewards, and help shape products and services you use everyday.

Companies want your opinions so they can make the best products and services. By providing truthful and accurate information in our online surveys, you help these companies build the products and services that are right for you. As a bonus, you get FREE rewards as a “thank you” for your time.

I have  joined and have already earned money in Paypal rewards. Opinion Place offers a few ways to earn “money” such as Paypal, Amazon Gift Cards, and more. They say it can take up to three weeks to get paid and I got paid within 2 weeks! It is easy to join and you can elect to get email notifications of new surveys available. I like that option because then my inbox doesn’t get slammed with tons of mail. I can go on to the site when I want to! It is awesome! I also love doing surveys, I like giving my opinion and I know they use our opinions in designing commercials and even products because I used to work at a couple survey companies. Have your say!

New Office- Home Depot Trip

I am in the process of setting up my office space.  I am, of course, addicted to this blog. I love sharing deals, recipes, and so much more with you. The thing is, right now I am working in an area that has very little space. I live in a 2-bedroom apartment and up until last week my extra bedroom was filled like a storage area. A lot of it was my husband’s stuff and I finally got him to go through it and toss so many old computer parts (he has been building his own computers since he was four). Now that the room is empty, my husband is going to build me an awesome space!

First, we picked out a computer desk. I found a cute red one that fits in the corner. We got is off Craigslist for just $25! It is not in perfect condition but it is exactly what I wanted. We also picked up a 2-drawer black file cabinet for $10.

Second, we went to Home Depot. We also picked up shelving and almost everything needed for the desk area, including the peg board! The friendly people at Home Depot cut the wood for the shelves, the peg board, and the particle board (the desktop) into the sizes we needed.We picked up Gliden duo paint in black for the desk and shelves. We are spray painting the black file cabinet with a hammered finished black so that any imperfections are hidden.  The peg board is going to be a red that matches the desk. The room is going to have a red/black color theme to go with my Disney/ Mickey love. This trip to Home Depot took about 3.5 hours.

What are some things you love about your craft/office space? Are you super organized, more organized than others, or you don’t know where you left the scissors last? I have to admit, I am more of the last statement. Hopefully, this handmade, custom space will help my cluttered life!
