I am tired of throwing away my cheap, threadbare bath mats when they start to shed and leave little cotton dust balls all around my wooden floors! Bleh!

I tend to lean towards dark colors for my bathroom mats because I don’t like how quickly fair colors tend to look dirty. Plus, like I said I tend to purchase the cheaper variety and they literally fall apart in the wash, which is why when they start to get really snarly I just end up chucking them! It’s a wasteful cycle to say the least.

The time has finally come for me to be an adult and purchase higher quality bath mats.

I like the World Class Bath Mats from Frontgate.  These premium bath mats are tufted from polished cashmere cotton select woven from a superbly soft high pile offset by a band of low loops, these cotton bath rugs acquire a more lush texture with every machine washing.

• made of 100% combed cotton yarn
• custom-dyed for vibrant no-fading hues
• sprayed latex backing prevents skidding
• luxury bath rugs are hand-sewn
• (machine washable)

Costs $129.00

The price may seem steep to some of you, but you are buying quality. If I calculate how much I have spent buying the cheaper versions and then chucking them it adds up to about the same.

Do you have hard to reach crevices, high windows or towering cabinets? Find it difficult to clean that gorgeous chandelier in the foyer? Well if any of these problems sound familiar, then I think it is high time you invest in quality indoor cleaning supplies.

In our home we have vaulted ceilings, high triangular windows and a wide assortment of spiders! Thus, dust and cobwebs accumulate in hard to reach areas. I bought one of these Adjustable Bulb Changer Kits for my mom and she loves it, she literally can not dust without it.

The lightweight aluminum extension pole has an ergonomic 16′ reach, an integrated angle adapter, and easy-to-attach accessories to clean every corner and crevice. Say goodbye to all those creepy crawlies lurking in the heights of your home!

Price - $24.50

Funny story, ready? Well not so much funny “haha” but funny “sad slash ghetto”. My brother has a house in San Fernando Valley and he recently purchased those solar lights that line your lawn and some garden thief promptly stole them!

Well okay I know that not everyone may see the humor in that situation but if you knew my brother you would. This is the same fellow who had his car stolen twice (recovered and stripped in Riverside) and who has an uncanny ability to get into hi jinx wherever he goes. So really the event didn’t surprise anyone, just brought additional chuckles.

The whole event made me wonder if there were other solar outdoor lighting options available that could not be so easily swiped.

Voila! I introduce you to the Driveway Solar Lights from Frontgate.com!

Place along the driveway or along the steps of your porch or front walkway and let the solar lights be a beacon for your way home. The lights will guide you on your path safely as you bring in your groceries at night, sleepily pull out your trash early in the morning, or slowly guiding your car threw rainfall or drizzle.

Powered by solar memory circuitry for 18 hours of run-time on a full charge (even when the skies are overcast), they provide reliable outdoor lighting all night long. Housed in rust free aluminum, 6 super strong LEDs provide bright and brilliant light, completely cordless so no wiring required to install. Also mounts vertically so you can add the Solar Lights wherever some luminance is required. 

Price - $59.50 (for a set of 2)
