FRIDAY EVE FAVORITES – JUNE EDITION

Happy Summer! I’m going to start this Favorites list off with a few ideas for Father’s Day and gifts for the men in your life. They are some of my husband’s favorites, so maybe we can just refer to the first 2 as his list? You’ll understand soon enough…

The Tushy

The Most Thoughtful Bidet in the World. When Hubs said he wanted this I was simply grossed out. Since he never ask for anything, I ordered it. The packaging and clever marketing alone makes this purchase gold. The Tushy fits all standard toilets, doesn’t require electricity or plumbing. Just unscrew the toilet seat, pop the TUSHY on, connect to water (not the toilet water, the water line…this had to be explained to me before I’d even think about trying it!) , and you’re done. I can’t go any further with this one. Every man I know that has one of these, loves it. So weird. Happy Father’s Day to all of them.

Motion Activated Toilet Night Light

Ladies, let your men have Guys Night. This is what happens, they come home with new ideas on how to decorate our toilets. For those who have to potty often in the middle of the night and don’t want to fully wake by turning on the lights….Motion Activated Toilet Night Lights are for you. You can even chose your color. Stay classy friends.

Bondic LED UV Liquid Plastic Welding Adhesive Complete Starter Kit

I got this for the Hubs because I thought it looked cool and he needs more toys. The plastic is the adhesive and the LED UV light cures it to stay in place. It had mixed reviews, but figured if he doesn’t like it then I’ll use it.

Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eyeshadow

I’m not patient enough to do eyeshadow, especially everyday. How do other women have their life so put together they can do this?! I’ve recently found these eyeshadow sticks and love them! My favorite colors used so far are Au Natural and Cobblestone. For under my brow bone I use the following product.

Thrive Brilliant Eye Brightener

I use this eye shadow stick in Stella (Champagne Shimmer) for the brow bone and the inner side of the eyelid as a highlighter. It dries to a powdery finish, which I like for that area of the eyelid. The Laura Mercier brand (above) dries a tad more dewy.

The Miracle TimeCube Timer

This guy has been such a task saver. I’m not disciplined enough to use the timer on my phone. It’s basically a “If you give a Mouse a Cookie” situation. If my phone is near, I’ll reply to a text, remember I needed to order gift cards, and tend to 183 other task other than the one I’m suppose to be focused on. Simply turn it on and place the time management cube on whatever time you need to be set. This one is for larger projects (15-20-30-60.) They also offer a 1-3-5-10 minute timer as well. Even a Two Cube deal!

Cylinder Tissue Boxes

I think this officially knocks me over the edge of being old. I have favorite Kleenex. These cylinder tissues are the perfect size to sit in the car door drink holders and anywhere else! (For my local friends, they sell these at HEB!) If you are truly sick and needing Kleenex every 3 minutes, by all means get some tissues with aloe. Otherwise, these are amazing and cute.

Tissues Cylinder Cover 


Cute tissues lead to purchasing adorable Cylinder Covers like this aluminum one.

The Good Life Planner

I am one week into The Good Life Planner, I don’t usually share things until I’ve used them awhile, but this quickly became a favorite! I truly LOVE IT. It is a daily, step by step guide that walks you through what Amy, the author, has found to be the secret to a Good Life, even when life is not so good. The simple, affirming bible verse reminds us we are never alone. Next is the self-affirmation and going a step deeper with a question to ask yourself how you walk out your affirmation. Then move into praying or meditating on the needs of others. It’s been the best way to start my days, you can order yourself one at www.worthyheart.com. Amy is also a Peace/Freedom/Life Coach, and hilarious! Give her a follow on Instagram!

Dolly Parton, Storyteller Book

The perfect book….no matter the genre. It is so fascinating to read and look at. Every coffee table needs this gem.
