Hap-pee trails to you
Western toilet seats - A John Wayne toilet seat that celebrates the Duke everytime you’ve gotta go
One of my favorite eras of American history fell during the latter half of the 19th century in a period fondly referred to as the Wild West. Cowboys and Indians, saloons, gold rushes, Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday’s showdown at the OK Corall… it was a time.
It’s hard to find a good old time saloon nowadays, we need a license to shoot things up and outhouses are a thing of the past, but I can still celebrate the legends of the Wild Wild West whenever I hit the john thanks to this John Wayne Western Toilet Seat from Wild West Living.
When it comes to toilet seats, it’s #1.
When life gives you lemons, light a lemon scented candle
Lemon scented candles lightly scented with ginger, grapefruit and lemongrass
Some days, things just don’t go your way.
You realize your umbrella has a hole in it during a tropical storm.
You grab a doorknob at Disney World and get sick for a month.
The coffee maker splurts coffee grounds all over you.
You find out there’s 50lbs of honey in the walls of your house.
When life gives me lemons, I don’t make lemonade (too much sugar). Instead, I do two things.
1. I take a lemon-flavored Emergen-C packet for a burst of Vitamin C.
2. I light my Ginger, Grapefruit and Lemon Scented Candles from Nice Aromas.
It works every time.
I’ll get you my pretty, and your heavy door too
Decorative door stopper to keep your doors wide open
Sometimes you have an open door policy, sometimes you’d rather keep things behind closed doors. When the annoying building alarm has mulfunctioned, door closed. When there’s juicy office gossip circulating in the room next door, my door is always open.
I love the musical Wicked, so I’m really loving this Wicked/Wizard of Oz inspired Decorative Door Stopper from Colorful Images. It does the trick every time, keeping my door securely ajar when I’m open for gossip, visitors and cute little black doggies. I only need to beware of the flying monkeys. Nigel hates those guys.
Fragrance ball of honey
Fragrance balls filled with honey scented fragrance sachets
When I walk in the front door after a hard day at work, I would love to be greeted with the smells of clean linens, warm cookies in the oven and spicy, intoxicating fragrances. Since I live with a teenage son and a fiesty labrador retriever, I’m usually greeted with the scent of eau de wet dog or parfum de dirty sneakers.
I love lighting sweet smelling candles around the house, but leaving a flame unattended while I’m at work isn’t an option, (especially considering my quirky smoke detectors) which is why I am obsessed with this lovely Fragrance ball from Chesapeake Bay Candle. It’s a fragrant life saver, making my home sweet home smell like a home sweet home, masking and overpowering any other disenchanting aromas.
Lay your head on Elvis’s shoulder
Elvis pillow for Elvis Presley fans like me
There are two types of people in this world - Elvis fans and Elvis haters.
My co-worker Nigel is an Elvis hater, although Nigel hates almost everything… including watermelon and unicorns. I fall into the first category, a loyal fan of the King’s, ever since I marveled at his waist up performance on the Ed Sullivan show in 1956. Decades later, Elvis and I would share a special moment together in Hawaii when I accidentally plowed into a tall, dark and handsome man with a killer pair of mutton chops. True story.
I’ve been wanting to add a little bit of rock and roll into my home decor, so I’m all shook up over this Elvis Pillow from Image Design & Furniture Co. Now I can lay my head on Elvis’s shoulder and reminisce about our lovely Hawaiian getaway.
Lost in space
Space bag large sized for extra large space saving
My Spring Cleaning saga continues…
I started on my daughter’s room last weekend, and am still not even close to being done. Winter is over and my daughter needs to make room in her closet for all of her new Spring fashion acquisitions. I was cleaning out her closet, wondering how she accumulated so many cute and comfy sweaters, then I realized most of them were mine. No wonder I was freezing all Winter. Thanks a lot dear.

A Spacesaver #1 Bestseller, these state-of-the-art space bags are out of this world giving you up to three times more storage space for bulky sweaters, comforters, coats, sleeping bags, patio cushions and more by storing and compressing items quickly and conveniently. Plus, they eliminate bugs, moisture and dust while storing! No moths on Space Bag’s watch.
Blissful bedding
Duvet linens and luxurious duvet linen sets make for blissful bedding
I never get up on the wrong side of the bed.
Bedtime is happy time for me. My bedroom is my ultimate sanctuary and I love nothing more than crawling under cover every night for my routine seven to eight hours of uninterrupted shut-eye (that is, when the fire alarms aren’t going off). I’m not always able to splurge on the finer things in life - overpriced jewelry, tiny yappy purse dogs or Maserati Gran Turismos, but when it comes to bedding, my budoir calls for the very best.
Every night when I rest my head on my Ashley Citron Duvet Linens and shams from Blissliving Home, visions of sugarplums dance in my head with all of the day’s trials and tribulations simply melting away.
Snuggie with me
Snuggie ™ fleece throws for single snuggling situations
Sometimes you just need a snuggle.
Whether you’re sick, having a bad day or experiencing unfortunate digestive problems, snuggling makes it all better. I am not embarrassed to admit that I am a self-professed Snugglepuss. I love cozying up on the couch Sunday mornings with a warm blanket, my man and a hot cup of extra bold coffee. The only problem with snuggling? You can’t always go it alone. Snuggling often requires a partner.
Well I’ve got news for all you loner snugglers, I just saw an infomercial for an amazing new snuggling sensation that will allow us all to snuggle solo! The Snuggie Fleece Throw from abc distributing isn’t just a snuggly blanket. It features sleeves that keep your upper body totally covered while your hands and arms are still free to move, so you can snuggle all by your lonesome until you’re as snug as a bug in a snuggie.
Sleep in heavenly peace
This therapy pillow gives me a therapeutic night’s sleep, finally
It’s never a silent night in my house.
I have 2 teenagers, and it’s been 6 years, 4 months, 13 days and 9 hours since I’ve had a good night’s sleep. I know, I’ve counted. I’m too busy thinking about all the work I need to do, all the pitches I need to make, all the bacon I need to bring home and all the kids I have to raise. Instead of crying tears on my pillow every night from all my accumulated stress, I can now be soothed by my favorite mellow sounds of Sade’s “Smooth Operator” or Enya’s “Orinoco Flow” thanks to this Sleep Oasis Therapy Pillow from Soundbytes.
Hi, I’m Matt
This Custom doormat gives your visitors a customized hello
Hi, I’m Matt.
Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I work at Catalogs.com. I wear flip flops to work. I like Smuckers peanut butter. Everyone likes me, not only at work. Everyone around town knows I’m the Mattster. Everyone in my apartment building knows me, the mailman knows me, even the Chinese food delivery guy knows me. They all know my name because when they come to my door, the first thing they see is this Custom Hi My Name Is Mat Doormat from Catalog Favorites that makes all of my introductions for me.
Make holiday entertaining bear-able
Add some black bear decor to your home with NorthStyle Catalog
I’m not the best host. I’m a great party guest, but I’m not so crazy about hosting. I don’t even like getting up every ten minutes to refresh my own drink much less other people’s drinks. Whether I’m watching a game on TV with the guys, having a dinner party or entertaining guests at a holiday shindig, I can’t take the stress of making sure everyone’s glass is half full. We can’t really afford a butler to perform white glove service at every one of our entertainment functions… but I can afford this Butler Bear from NorthStyle catalog.
Make it a Tuscan happy hour
Why have a glass of vino when you can have a whole pitcher with Tuscan china and pottery from Artistica
Who doesn’t love Italy? I adore all things Italian: the art, the fashion, the gondola rides, those men with the striped shirts, red scarves and funny hats that steer the gondolas, the pizza, the meatballs, hey, I even love having a little taste of Italy now and again at Olive Garden. But most of all, I love the Chianti vino muy delicioso. (Was that Italian or Spanish?…romance languages kill me). One of my most prized possessions is my Tuscan China Vino Pitcher from Artistica.
