OTI Organiser Products

Well it's that time of year again where our organisers are reaching their final pages and the new year is coming leaving us that yearly question of "what's the best organiser for me to buy"

There are so many different organiser brands on the market that it honestly is quite a hard decision to make. Everyone has something different to offer and they are all so bright, shiny and exciting.

Me... I love that time of year where I choose a new organiser. It's exciting. After all, this purchase is one that will be with you for the entire coming year !

It is with this thought that I approached OTi Organiser Products with the idea that if they send me one to keep i'll review it for my blog. Thankfully they agreed !! YAY ME...

After being given the choice of which colour I would prefer I chose the gorgeous Spearmint Green which immediately caught my eye. I think it's so fresh and pretty. With some of it's handy features being:

Week to view spread:

• To do list
• Meal plan
• Exercise plan
• People to call

Other features:

• Removable contacts and info booklet
• Refillable post it notes
• Pen 

Don't you just love it ??!!

They have some wonderful stuff out there all waiting and ready to get you through the year 2013. You'll have every area of your life sorted with their products.

These are a couple of my favourites ( aside from the gorgeous organiser diaries ):

OTi Meal Planner. With a large magnet attached to the back so that you can store it on the fridge, it is a generous A4 size pad with 50 sheets of paper this is definitely going to make meal planning easier. With the up-side of everyone knowing what's for dinner it ends them constantly repetitive "what's for dinner" questions.

OTi Shopping Pad and Pencil. This convenient pad is 50 pages thick and 140mm wide x 205mm high with a handy large magnet on the back for fridge storage so it's right there when you need it most. There's no more writing your lists on scraps of paper in a disorganised manner. I love these types of organisers because you can go down each aisle fast and easily without having to backtrack because you  just noticed you have missed something on your list. 

What type of organiser do you prefer to get your life sorted? I'd love to hear what features you like in yours.

Cloth Nappies at Sustainable Hemp Products

There is so much I want to write about Sustainable Hemp Products but I thought i'd let the wonderful Michelle Stapleton tell you about herself and her beautiful business in her own words.

I'm Michelle, a mad mobile mouthpiece, manoeuvring amongst many mothers and maidens mentoring and mentioning the magnificence of modern cloth nappying and much more. Also most importantly I am a mum to 2 (a teen and a tween), and this passion has allowed me to work from home. I love what I do, and making and selling nappies and other natural products for mums and bubs is more than about the products. I was a Registered Nurse for a long time- (Eeek- sounding very old) and so very much love the interaction with people.

I've been involved in the business ( more a way of life really) making and selling nappies for over 6 years and our products and service have a great reputation thanks to all the gorgeous mums who have supported us along the way- word of mouth is what we rely on. We have the most natural nappying system around and specialise in Night Nappies (the Sandman), Newborn nappying including our luscious Bamboo Velour lushies, Butt Couture for days with our gorgeous prints, Booby Pads and much more using the natural fibres of Bamboo, Hemp, Organic Cotton and Wool.  Our website has much info for new mums on natural sustainable alternatives for the care of your babies.

I don’t actually sew now but cut, pin and snap, and have a team of family and friends around me including my mum, husband, children, friends and others who I rope in from time to time. How we make our products is more important than how many products we make.  When you purchase one of the products we make or sell, you are supporting at least 4 Australian businesses and families through our supply chain. They will always be made in Australia and right here in my local community, having a good time hopefully while we’re at it. 

Don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions, 

Warmest Wishes,   Michelle ♥

Check out Michelle's store online and on facebook to see her latest products. And I know that everyone who has tried Michelle's gorgeous nappies continue to use them and can't speak highly enough about them! I myself LOVE Michelle's beautiful products and I trust that they are the very best for my family.

You can tell that she loves her business just by opening a parcel from her. There's no fast packing for Julia, she goes above and beyond caring for your purchase.

Julia's store is created in a way that anyone can find the perfect gift without worrying if it is age appropriate because every age category is accounted for right up to the tweens. You will find age categories such as cutie pie ONES, gorgie FOURS and MAMA mia. There's no questioning where you should be searching for your unique find.

Squeeze'ems review and giveaway

 

If you make your own baby food then you know the frustration of packing up all of them little tubs in your bag to take out. When it's time for baby's lunch you open up your bag and OH NO it's gone everywhere !! But fret no more. Today I have discovered something AMAZING that you really must know about - Squeeze'ems baby food pouches.

These reusable pouches are the solution to your baby food transportation dilemmas.

The gorgeous Samantha Hoyle from Squeeze'ems has agreed to give us some to try and review for you plus a 10 pack for a competition giveaway. I will be talking to Samantha about the details so watch this space for how you can enter to win a pack of these wonderful pouches. I just know these are very soon going to be seen in every supermarket in Australia and then overseas, so much am I excited about these!



 

• Each pouch holds 80g -  is free from BPA, PVC and Phthalate


• Caution: Ensure young children are supervized when using this product as it contains small parts which children could choke on or swallow.


• Please wash or sterilize the pouches before filling them.


• When microwaving please unscrew the cap/lid to allow air to escape the pouch, if the contents is below the level of the spout. If the contents is higher than the level of the spout open the zip-lock at the top instead. Please check the temperature of the contents before serving.


• Make sure not to overfill the pouches when freezing as the contents will expand which may cause the ziplock to burst open.


• Place the pouch on it's side with the spout facing upward when opening to prevent the contents from spilling out.


• Made from PET/NY/PE

Not only are these reusable which is fantastic if you are environmentally conscious like myself but they are affordable. With prices starting from just $3 for a trial pack how can you walk past them without giving them a go??

I am thinking of how practical they will be for everything from custards, yoghurts, homemade dinners and well.... the ideas are endless!!

You can check them out on their website HERE or on their facebook page HERE ..

Well... what are you waiting for? check these babies out =D

Bosisto's giveaway

What a wonderful way to come back to the blogging world.

The wonderful people at Bosisto's have once again asked if we would like to review some products and give some away to our readers.

We all know and love Bosisto's products for their quality and effectiveness. Hosting a review and giveaway for them is always an extreme pleasure. Bosisto's products are always in our home because we trust them to care for our family's health and well-being.

This time, together with Bosisto's we are giving away some gorgeous Lavender products !!  I am quite excited by this one particularly as Lavender is one of my most favourite scents.



 

Keep an eye out because we are currently in the process of setting up the competition and lining up the giveaway prizes for you. Once we have made the details complete I will be looking forward to your entries.

In the mean time you can check out Bosisto's website HERE and why not tell us what your favourite products are from their range.

Thank you Bosisto's for supporting our blog with your giveaway.

Back on board

It's been a very long time since the blog was opened and let's just say life got BUSY !!!

Running AmbeRocks and caring for my 5 little ones left little time for much else in life and sadly day by day the blog was forgotten and neglected. Danni and her husband have extended their gorgeous family to include the beautiful little boy Charlie bear so she has been beyond busy also.

I have sold AmbeRocks and the kids are just that little bit older now to grant me enough time to focus on the blog again and continue with the reviews we were having so much fun doing. There have certainly been MANY new and exciting products that I have tried since I last wrote on here so I will be writing about those very shortly.

 

I hope that you will enjoy reading along with us again and get involved with us by commenting here or on the facebook page which I shall reopen also.

I look forward to hearing from you
