Braxley Bands environmentally sustainable and trendy Apple Watch bands

Braxley Bands environmentally sustainable and trendy Apple Watch bands

Slipping my Apple Watch on and getting out the door for the day is much more effortless with my Braxley Band. Not that fastening my Apple Watch is that stressful, but it is just one easier task in my morning routine and a small difference. I have several Apple Watch bands to match my day or clothing. I grab my Braxley Band for everyday use. I can just slip my wrist through and go. Some mornings, I need ‘easy’ like that.

Better than a simple convenience, Braxley Bands are environmentally sustainable and crafted using recycled plastic that is machine washable and moisture-wicking. This band is truly made with care. Using very little resources, the brand makes sure the environment is not harmed in their process. In fact, Braxley Bands has partnered with Trees for the Future, and for each band sold, a tree is planted with partner farmers in forest gardens throughout Africa.

What about fit? A couple of things – they have different sizes, so take a quick measurement of your wrist. If you are not satisfied or anything happens to your band in the first year, they have your back with a replacement warranty. If it stretches out, toss it in the wash to get it back into its original shape. If it feels a tad snug, hold it stretched a few seconds and give it some time, it will eventually mold to your wrist size. I measured my wrist and knew if I ordered a size up it may be too loose. The size I ordered was just a little snug, but not uncomfortable at all. It has now formed much better to my wrist size and stretched to where it needs to be as I have worn in off and on the past 2 weeks.

Cloth and Bristle No. 001 Household Cleaner has only 4 ingredients

Cloth and Bristle No. 001 Household Cleaner has only 4 ingredients

Last night’s burgers in the air fryer made a mess! I am not sure how the explosion on the oven door came to be, but with my Cloth + Bristle No. 001 Household Cleaner it comes clean with little effort and is safe around food. This is because the cleaner is made with only 4 ingredients – Water, Clay, Xanthan gum, Essential oil.

I can take on the worst rust, lime scale, soap scum, mold, mildew, bacteria, dirt, grease, and more without toxins or chemicals. I drip a small amount on the surface, wet my sponge, cloth or brush and scrub. I then take a dry cloth or paper towels and buff clean. It’s that easy. Grease came off my oven door easily.

Cloth and Bristle was founded in Maryland in 2019 by a woman who owns an award winning residential cleaning company. She wanted a green product that was safe for families, works to clean tough residue off any surface without harm and actually leaves the surface better than before the mess.

You will find a few products in their shop such as the No. 001 and the spray for daily use called, All The Things. They have bundles and smaller product bottles. You get a natural clean for every surface and level of grime that you will feel safe using around the home and kitchen. You can view the science behind how these products ingredients come together to clean so well and naturally.

Maybe I can just show you all of the photos I took of my order from FossilEra because they are so much fun. I was blown away at the quality that arrived in my order. I was browsing their website looking at stones, crystals and even shark teeth. I saw that there were some fossil plates and I love to entertain so I was intrigued. I ordered the 11.1″ Tropical Hardwood Petrified Wood Dish from Indonesia. Wow! It is gorgeous and heavy.

Petrified Wood

I decided I want to find a place in the bar area and have visions of placing a few wrapped candies or mints to make it useful if entertaining. I love all the imperfections I would expect from a real piece of petrified wood. FossilEra really impressed on the way it was packaged. It was wrapped very securely.

They even included a free gift. I found this cut and polished Agatized Ammonite Fossil. My teen claimed it right away for his nightstand. Every item comes with an identifier card so you have all of the descriptions on your piece.

I also ordered a few Worry Stones. I chose Black Obsidian from Mexico and the Red Jasper is from an unknown region, but my son loves fidgeting with these and wanted a ‘red’ stone. I ordered a few extra because they are fun to add to gifts.

Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes for a Cleaner Home

Thank you to Arm & Hammer for providing these wipes to me. I am proud to be an Ambassador to this brand.

Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes for a Cleaner Home

I am cleaning and disinfecting more this year than in previous years and it is important that the cleaning products I use are safe for my pets and family. I do not like using harsh chemicals, it really is unnecessary when so many natural products are proven to clean as effectively, if not better! I quickly went from shopping any ‘ole cleaner that was on sale, to making sure I choose pure ingredients only so I don’t leave extra harm behind after I clean. Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes are what I am using right now.

Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes

Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes do not contain harsh chemicals such as bleach, ammonia or Quats! This is because they use Citrus Based Disinfection – it is pure and simple and cleans effectively. These wipes are safe on any spaces near pets and kids such as food surfaces (although wiping down food surfaces with purified water to finish is always recommended no matter the cleaning products used).

I can even ring the excess moisture form a wipe and use it on electronics. Remotes, phones and screens get touched the most in my home and by the dirtiest of hands, so using a cleaning wipe that kills 99.9% of Viruses1 & Bacteria on these products is fantastic!

Arm & Hammer

I have used these wipes in my bathroom, kitchen, home gym equipment and electronics and I am never left with any residue. It dries quickly so you can just wipe and move on. They smell great and come in these tall, narrow containers for easy storage.

Look for these Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes at most major retailers. Make sure that when you clean, you find pure and simple ingredients and no-mess options to save you time.
