The other day I was thinking about how to make Valentine's Day a big deal for my little family!  I LOVE holidays and I really want to make even the smallest holiday a BIG DEAL!  
I discovered these... must haves and found myself swooning over every thing!  There are lots of fun things to incorporate into V-Day!  
Now, our day will consist of a Valentine's breakfast with LOVE, lots of treats, baking and just being with the ones I love!

Guest Post: Enough is Enough!

Guest Blogger:  Tami, Carlsbad, CA
There are somethings that go on in my house that drive me nutty. The hand towels ending up on the bathroom floor was one of them. One day I said enough is enough. The hope that my kids were going hang the towel back on the rod was apparently too high an expectation. So I got out the hammer not to use it on the next culprit but to pound grommets into the dirty little towels. Now they happily hang on the rod removed only for cleaning.
This project is super easy and super fast. 


 Grommet kits are available at your local fabric store and include everything you need minus the hammer.



 I machine stitched the Velcro on to make sure it stayed put.


Head over to her blog for fun ideas from a creative mom who KNOWS!

BOON in the Bath

 BOON
 







 The BOON Frog is a popular amphibian whose habitat is in your tub!  They stick to the wall to store & keep things tidy.  Whether it be toys loaded to the brim, bubbly soap or extra odds & ends to hang from their feet or fingers.  The back of the frog is a drainable scoop that helps to prevent everything from getting yucky with mildew & scum. Mount this to your wall & make bath time much more fun & easy!










Lady Lady Lady BUG!  The BOON Bug has flown in to help keep your tub organized & clean.  Your little ones will have a blast with this little guy, removing the scoop & picking up all their bath time mess!  This lady holds your shampoos, bubble bath, toys & other doo-dads that need a place a place for hanging.  The BOON bug is such a helper for bath time & the mess that comes with it!






These crazy odd ducks are a funkified version of the rubber ducky!   With bright colors, and crazy designs your little ones will want to play with these guys in the tub.  With names like Slim, Jane, Bob & Squish they are made to have fun & are PVC-free & don't hold water so the yucky stuff doesn't grow in their bellies.  Let these guys come "quack" in your tub!






 The scrubbles are some of the funnest toys around!  They are used to squirt & get your child all soaped up.  These toys use a removable bulb that you can fill with water & your favorite bubbles.  Kids love to get clean with the scrubble & they can have fun by mixing and matching all the fun colors!
