A perfume stick, what's that you ask?? I didn't know either!! She makes these AWESOME perfume sticks in any of her scents that are the absolute most perfect things to have in your purse or pocket.

Not only does it have their names in it but it also mentions family members like Mama and Daddy, Gramma and Pop and even the dogs make an appearance!!

Perfect for the Holiday Season they also have A Christmas Bear for Me - Make a child's Christmas magical. Comes with a mini plush bear and a personalized letter from Santa!

I love that I See Me's mission is to increase self esteem in children through personalized books that celebrate the uniqueness of each child. The goal of their books is to show each child how absolutely unique and special he or she is, to teach the child how to spell his or her name, and to build vocabulary skill. My boys are SO EXCITED to see their name in print and the smiles are so worth it. It's very special to have your boys feel so great about themselves.

This would make a fantastic gift this Holiday Season and any time of year, a real keepsake!

* Lise Watier Couleur Folle Mineral Loose Powder Eyeshadow - mine is aqua colour, not a colour I would choose for myself normally but I love it!!

Libre Tea

Did you know Canada.. people are so into hot drinks lately I think a HUGE hit will be Libre Tea glasses this Holiday Season.

The Libre tea glass is the perfect tea gift for any tea lover in your family. Perfect for at home, the office AND on the go, you can take it anywhere!

Check out this fantastic video on how to use the glass, so you can see it in action. Easy to use, get the best drink from your tea every time!! No more trying to use those messy filters over top of your cup that slop HOT water everywhere, or someone new to tea wondering how you even use tea leaves on the daily basis. Libre Tea glasses are for every tea drinker, with their loose leaf tea infuser it makes a perfect cup every time.


I think the Libre glass'n poly Mug would make a beautiful gift this Holiday Season. I find it very cosy and perfect for at home or in the office with the handle, can be used 2 ways to brew and travel with loose leaf tea 'on the go' – tea in the tea glass or tea on top of the twist off filter.

One of my favourite things about Libra tea glasses is how LONG they keep your tea warm. I am sure every tea drink out there has run into tea gone cold and while iced tea is good, luke warm tea is not. With the Libre Tea glasses you never have to worry, they are thermal because it is double walled - keeps hot tea hot and iced tea cold.

A fantastic gift idea for friends, family, co workers, teachers and more this Holiday Season!!

We are so excited to share that one lucky reader will be winner their own Libre glass'n poly Mug!!

Kidz-Med VeraTemp Non-Contact Thermometer

Did you know Canada.. Have you seen the new no contact thermometers from Kidz-Med?

Pediatrician recommended, these thermometers are awesome! Even past the baby stage my guys hate getting their temperature taken, with VeraTemp there is no need to wake them up, have them hold still or any of those other terrible things they don't want to do when they feel sick.

Not only does it take core body temperature, but you can also use it to check food temperature, water, formula, warm drinks - anything you can think of!

We've been having fun around the house with this as of late I admit, we know the temperature of the fridge, drinks, bath water, hands and feet, food, the dogs and more. While not really a tool to make a game out of, after all our fun the boys certainly don't mind having their body temperature taken now!

Perfect for Mom's of little ones to sneak a quick temp check during the night (back lit for easy reading) to put your mind at ease without bothering anyone else, this is a tool every household can use and would be a VERY thoughtful gift this Holiday Season.

Find them at Shoppers Drug Mart for a safe, hygienic and easy to use thermometer!

Worried about extra shipping charges online??

Did you know Canada...that you can shop online for Christmas presents and pay no Customs Duty?

Many people Canadians complain about the getting hit with Customs Charges when they have something they bought shipped to Canada. Well the truth is that those fees are either avoidable or are not even a Customs charge. Here are some examples:

Shipping Charges - Be sure to read how much your online shopping site is charging you for shipping. *Note many Ebay sellers will list a lower sale price but state an artificially high amount for shipping. i.e. item is listed at $20 but shipping is $20 too, while in fact the shipping is actually $5; so the seller makes $15 off the extra shipping charge.

“Customs Handling fee” - if you order something that comes through Canada Post be aware of the “Customs Handling Fee”. These fees do not come to customs or the Government in anyway. These are fees that Canada Post charges for handling the collection of duty and taxes for the CBSA. As of June 4th 2011, the fee is now $8.50 on top of any duty or taxes owing. In comparison to what a broker or courier company would charge you for customs clearance, this is still quite a bargain.

Customs Brokerage fee - Depending on the level of service selected with various courier companies, the customs brokerage charge is included or extra. Usually if its low value (under $1600), the charge is in the range of $20 per commodity. So check with your vendor and ask them if the customs clearance fees are included in the shipping. If they are extra you always have the choice to self-clear through customs, then the courier company must reverse the charges.

Gifts - Many people receive gifts from friends or family abroad and end up being charged Customs Duty and taxes. Things to keep in mind are that the Gift exemption is $60 CAD per item and the package should clearly appear to be a gift. To better understand customs tariff 9816 read my post here on the gift exemption here in Canada.

So here the top 3 popular categories of items you can buy online and have shipped to Canada and pay no Custom Duty.

1. Toys - yes, that's right, you can buy your kids all their Xmas gifts online and pay no duty.
2. Electronics - For the most part most of the popular electronics like e-readers, tablets, laptops, mp3 players, digital cameras, camcorders and cell phones are all duty free.
3. Books - hardcover, soft cover, magazines....all have no duty.

Just be aware everyone that GST/HST and PST will apply depending on the province of residence/destination. So in Ontario you will not pay duty on the above items but you will pay 13% HST. Alberta on the other hand will pay only GST as they have no provincial sales tax.

Happy Shopping Canada!

Drink warm or cold, a fun treat to share with your family and a beautiful set for under the tree! Could you imagine a little girl opening up a new "tea set" and getting REAL tea to use with it?? Every little girls dream. :-)  My boys absolutely love it too, our new fav after playing outside in the cold, perfect for those red cheeks once the snow starts too!  The Tropical Fruit Punch and Strawberry Kiwi flavours are our most favourite.

Though the Holiday Blend Black Tea is my absolutely fav, the scent and taste of the Almond Biscotti and Caramel Apple are so delish, I can't stop sniffing the packs while I make a cup!

For after all the Holiday Celebration it might be a good idea to pick up some Slim and Slender tea too. The combination of natural ingredients come together to create a tea that both boosts the immune system and burns fat with a guava-pineapple-lemon flavour.

Gorgeous gifts, tasty teas, Teaopia has thought of everything this Holiday Season, order online or in store!!

MITT-ONS

Did you know Canada.. you know how much we love ONS-GEAR, but today we wanted to remind you what an awesome gift their MITT-ONS will make this Holiday Season.

We finally had an occasion to use our last week when it SNOWED!!! At 4 years old the boys are really ready for some fort building, hill sliding and snow balls this year. Many attempts at heading outside last year ended in some tears after they got snow inside their mitts and jackets - but no more!

With ONS-GEAR usual innovation MITT-ONS keep hands warm and dry. Featuring a sleeve to the elbow and a zipper at the wrist for optional wearing of the mitt with or without the sleeve, no more snow will get in with these! Rip-resistant tip, grippy surface on the palm and (this is how you KNOW a Mom made these) a cotton thumb for runny noses!!

I was unsure if my boys would take to them right away as they are different than the old mittens with the long sleeve, but they loved the idea and the colours! Said they are very cozy, and yes, we did try out those cotton thumbs..lol

Available in three colours and sizes, Moms and Dads will appreciate seeing these under the tree this year and kids will love them!

Giveaway! Scentsy

Did you know Canada.. Scentsy is a a direct selling, wickless candle company. Have you been to one of their home parties? Or maybe seen then during a ladies night out shop? I just saw a Scentsy rep last week at one of those shops, I think I stood at her table 10 minutes sniffing all her scents..haha

A wickless candle, called a Scentsy Bar or a Scentsy Brick, is a highly fragrant wax bar that is warmed to release fragrance into the air. Because the wax is gently warmed rather than burned, it can hold more fragrance oil than a traditional candle. Scentsy’s beautiful ceramic warmers house a low-watt light bulb that slowly melts the Scentsy Bar or Scentsy Brick, filling your home with one of more than 80 distinctive, long-lasting scents. They also have Scentsy scent circles, travel tins and scent paks that would make great stocking stuffers this year!!

I've been using a beautiful Scentsy warmer the past few days and have already gotten compliments from everyone that's been in! It smells FANTASTIC - Snowberry is a perfect Holiday scent, the warmer is beautiful, easy to use and did I mention it smells fantastic?? :-) I was SO impressed with the beautiful way it was sent, as you know I SO appreciate when businesses take care in the way they package items, this was perfect - thank you Bonnie!!


Bonnie Andrews is a Scentsy consultant with a fantastic story. Bonnie adopted her beautiful daughter Kate from Guatemala and they would love to make Kate a big sister!! Using funding from their small business of selling Scentsy products, Bonnie, her husband, and Kate and looking to earn enough to open their hearts and home to as many children as it can hold.

Not only that but they say.. It is our goal with our Scentsy business not to stop at adoptions for just our family, but it’s our dream to create a program for children all over the world to feel the love of a family through the power of adoption too. As we grow here at iLoveScentedCandles.com we hope to be able to open the doors to many children and many families with financial assistance and education about the power and miracle of adoption.

What a fantastic story, great products and a great way to support a beautiful family this Holiday Season. Check out Bonnie's Scentsy site today for great deals and get shopping!
