Goswell Led Light strip DIY vanity project

I really like the LED light strips I got from Goswell. I got these lights because I wanted extra lighting while doing my makeup. Who wouldn't love a little extra lighting to do their makeup?

The lights come on a reel for easy management of the strip. The strip is waterproof and flexible so you can place these indoors or outdoors. The lights are 300 SMD LED lights and are 12 volt. You can cut along every third light to get the length you desire. They also mark where you can cut to make it a bit easier for you.



The strip has a 3M sticky backing so that you can apply them to most surfaces. In my opinion the adhesive is not ideal as I applied it last night and some areas are already coming up, so I will be looking for a solution to this soon. The strip is powered by a 12V LED strip barrel connector to screw adapter which is sold separately. It was very easy to connect the wires to the power supply and inhale no experience in lighting/electricity.


I was able to easily apply the Led light strip to my vanity. I had wiped it down and cleaned it so it would stick well. However, after just a little bit the adhesive started to come off. A little disappointing but I am sure I can find an easy fix for it.

Other than the sticky backing not firmly staying in place and having to figure out how to power the lights on, I am pretty happy with my LED project! I can't wait to figure out what I am going to do with the other half of the reel.

So if you would like to pick up a set for yourself, here is the link to where I got mine.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QUIMGI0

Goldween Retractable Cat Teaser Wand | Cat Toy with Feathers and Crinkle Balls | Value 10 Pack review

Image
So I was looking around for some fun new cat toys for my furbabies and I came across Goldween Retractable Cat  Teaser Wand | Cat Toy with Feathers and Crinkle Balls | Value 10 Pack on Amazon. I was tired of the old regular toys they played with and wanted something more interactive with them. They love these! I don't know who actually likes them more the kids playing with them or the cats. It keeps them both pretty busy so it's a win-win! The package comes in a clear package sealed with a lip.  It doesn't reseal well so I can't keep them stored in the bag but that's okay. There is a rod that extends and attached to that is some fishing line. Attached to the fishing line is lead where you can attach different toys the set comes with. The rod when fully extended is pretty long and there doesn't seem to be a way to lock it into place so it will slide back and forth.  Bends easily like a fishing rod too but holds up well with the kids and ...

    My kids have been loving their new toy from Meigo! This wooden block set comes with 32 blocks and a drawstring storage bag. There are 4 large cubed wooden blocks and 28 domino style blocks. Each side of the domino has a different theme to it, but I will get into that later.      This toy is very versatile. There are so many ways to play with the Meigo Wooden Block set. Let's start with the easiest. The kids can line these up like dominos and then topple them over. One of my son's favorite way to play with them.      Another great way to play with them is to line them all and match the pieces together like a puzzle. All of my kids seemed to have enjoyed this one. The pictures on each piece make it easy for even the littlest of kids to enjoy putting it together. My two oldest children enjoyed using the four larger cubed blocks to create puzzles with. You can put them together to create the puzzle...
