Shmoozees: A Perfect Earring Storage Solution & Fun Contest

shmoozees
Has your daughter discovered Shmoozees yet? These adorable plush toys have a bean bag bottom and are perfect for storing earrings. When I was asked if I wanted to review these I wasn’t really sure what to expect. The box arrived a few days later and we opened it to find Funky Zebra, Wild Giraffe, and Dreamy Purple.

Em immediately fell in love with them all, but Funky Zebra was her absolute favorite. She grabbed her jewelry box and started digging for earrings to put on the Shmoozees. My favorite part of the Shmoozee is the glow in the dark eyes and ears. Just leave the Shmoozee under the light for at least 5 minutes and you’ll have a glowing Shmoozee in a dark room.

If your daughter doesn’t have very many earrings or doesn’t have pierced ears she can still have fun with a Shmoozee. Earring charms can be purchased to decorate Shmoozees. The charms can also be traded among friends for more variety.  I think these are just adorable and I know Em is loving using them for her earrings.

Shmoozie2 During the month of May Shmoozees is hosting a video contest on their Facebook page. You can enter to win great prizes! Now, don’t let the idea of a video entry scare you away. It doesn’t have to be anything extreme. You can check out our skit in the video above for an example.

Spring Wreath

I spotted this wreath on pinterest and knew I would have to try making one for myself. I made this on an 8″ ring and I absolutely LOVE how it looks, but you could make it on a larger ring and it will still look great. This wreath makes me think of warm weather, sunny skies and …Read More

Making An Ordinary Day Extraordinary #QuakerEpicAdventures
