Ethereal and elegant, moonstone beads are so named because of their eerie resemblance to the pale rays of the moon and thus are popular stones for jewelry items like bracelets, earrings and broaches. Historically, moonstone beads have been favored by such ancient civilizations as the Romans and Greeks, who associated this stone with their moon gods and goddesses. These lovely beads also become extremely popular during the art noveau movement of the late 18^th and early 19^th centuries. Geologically, moonstone is composed of orthoclase feldspar and albite, which causes its lustrous look. This gem occurs naturally across the globe, including Brazil, Germany, India, Mexico and the United States, and can come in a variety of colors: pale blue, milky white, green, peach and even rainbow moonstone.

The folklore of moonstone is varied, and usually varies according to each country of origin; for example, in India, it is said to be sacred to lovers and is also called a “dream stone” and can bring the wearer beautiful dreams. In some Arabic countries, women wear moonstone as a symbol of fertility; it is also said to be protective of fisherman and is carried on voyages on the sea. Moonstone beads can be used for making stunning pieces of jewelry, like drop earrings, bracelets and necklaces. For example, attach six medium-sized moonstone beads (in round or oval shapes) onto 20guage jeweler’s wire, then string on a large silver pendant, another six moonstone beads and then secure ends with a lobster claw clasp for easy fastening. This makes a stunning statement piece that works for many different outfits. Make earrings or a charm bracelet to match.

For Valentines, I don’t think it’s so easy to get any unique accessories in Red here. Last year, I asked my husband to buy me red top. He showed me only the marroon color. I thought I can get red top in Kohls but sadly, it was not available there. I saw  women fashion accesories available in red only online. They are so expensive. It’s hard to find them under $25.

With my excitement, I am pleased to receive Mom Red Bracelet (CFLLB-07) from Charm Factory. It has a good combination of red and black with Mom blocks in the center. It is made up of silver platted Brass and lead free pewter glass. It will definietly fit for women of any age. No need to worry if you are not sure about your wrist size. The average bracelet size is 7 ½”, 8 or 9 inches.

It is so cute to see it in the white gift box. I am really impressed with the quality of this bracelet and it reminds me of Valentine theme with a hugable beads i.e heart beads It’s strong enough with two stoppers on each side. You can choose your theme to add or remove your favoite charms with this lovable bracelet. It’s beautifully designed with lobster clasp.

I feel handmade items are hard to find and so I am super excited when Beanie Designs requested me to review one of their item. I spent so much time to browse varieties of hats that we don’t need to sacfrice style, color and cost.I choosed Organic cotton Multi Color Stocking hat: blue as the multi-color stocking hat is not easy to find for outfit-matching options. It is made of extra soft 100% organic cotton yarns.

Kabil looks so cute when I put it on his head. He cried and fussed as he didn’t want his hat to stay on his head. He pulled it to take it off. I am sad to say that the summer is still here. I took it off and tried again when he calms down.

I hope he will adjust to wear it in the winter months. I roll-up the rim design makes it easy to get the right fit. He’s so clever to wake up and cried to take it off. My husband was laughing when I keep trying to do it over again. I can do it very slowly when he was sleeping to take the above picture.

I was lucky to find Meeno Babies when I was just browsing and went to read more about their products. Meeno Babies is cleverly designed seat liners to keep baby and kids cool in their car seats and strollers.

I don’t want to take Kabil out in this hotter month as he is not comfortable to sit in the stroller and often cries. I have to carry him to keep him cool. I came to know his seat is not breathable. So, I was thinking not to take him out often.

When I showed  “Cool Mee” seat liner to my husband, he immediately tried it within few minutes and told me that it is super easy to use it. He appreciated me for getting this terrific produt that has a very thin material with extra cushioning for comfort made from a 3-ply mesh fabric that allows air to flow. It helps to keep their babies “sweat-less” and cool.

You all know, the weather in Dallas is like open oven in summer. Kabil was also not comfortable to sit in his car seat. He wants me to sit on my lap while travelling. We are so happy that he sits comfortably with Meeno Babies “Cool Mee” Seat Liner and sometimes  he fall asleep. I took him slowly from his car seat and he didn’t have sweating in his head and back. Look my cute baby is now COOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLL

Isn’t it hard to pick one for yourself? Yeah, me too! Breda send me the Victoria Blue. I have not owned the watch with sparkly stones that comes with blue leather crocodile strap. My husband bought Sweden watch with dark brown leather strap as a wedding gift. That watch is very simple and last till now since 1998. I couldn’t find the better strap for this watch.

Now, Breda has numerous styles and colors that will spoil any women. I suggest the price should be more than $50 but it is suprisingly sold for $45 as it comes with beautiful case that makes perfect gift for any occasion. It has genuine leather, and comes 14 different colors.

The dial is made up of stainless stell and it makes the perfect size to cover the entire wrist of women. The mother of pearl dial adds beauty to the watch by surrounding crystals as it is marked with 3 chronograph dials and 8 crystal dial markers

You can see its hands are illuminated to tell the time when it is dark. This is what I would prefer to have when travelling at night. It has a one year international warranty.

When I approached  Baby Bedding Zone , I grabed the hot coffee and relaxed to browse the unique collections of baby bedding. Decorating the windows with the curtains make a luxurious feeling at home. It’s very difficult to choose different design curtains for both baby and kids.

I love the new look of curtains that can easily do mix and match with nursery decorations in baby or kid’s room. For interior decoration, looking photography is the best option to choose lovely curtains. In their website, it made clear easy to choose the best options as you can see the photos and decide to buy which theme, pattern and design you prefer to buy.

If you purchase the poor quality curtains, then it’ll not look so good as you see in the photos of their website. I love to decor it in kid’s room by changing different theme and design in every 3 months. It is easy to pick up the items in popular brands like Bananafish, Skip Hop, Dr Seuss, Cotton Tale, My Baby Sam, Brandee Danielle, and more.

Fairyland Curtains with Tiebacks and Valance is beautifully designed with Green and pink striped tiebacks. It is 96″ long and Made in the USA from 100% Egyptian cotton. What a great deal that comes with solid green drapery panels with rod pocket top, toile swag valance and white lining. It makes the photo look great as it has mixture of Green and pink design on top and striped tiebacks. Thanks to Laura for sending me lovely curtain!

Baby Bedding Zone is giving away the winner’s choice of one of the following products:

• Palm Beach Blue Curtains with Tiebacks (valance not included) ARV $650
