The original Kilner jar invented by John Kilner and Co in the 1840's has stood the test of time for over 150 years. Although, the design has been updated, they have kept the unique vacuum feature that helps keep our blends, preserves, and pickles fresh. I find the Kilner jars can be used in lots of different ways, not just to store preserves and pickles.
I used a variety of different sized Kilner Jars to organize my kitchen pantry.

The Keyless Future with Schlage
The hassle of losing or forgetting house keys or any set of keys can be very cumbersome and nerve wracking. Imagine a life without keys? I think with our busy active lifestyles it is sometimes best not to worry about the simple things such as house keys. This keyless future is currently sitting on my front door! We installed a Schlage Touch Keyless Touchscreen Deadbolt recently and have been surprised and happy about how stylish, easy, practical, and functional it is.

Organizing using Chalkboard Tape
I enjoyed using removable chalkboard tape and organizing. This is an easy and practical way to organize anything we want.
I usually use this drawer to put different things, so I like having this removable chalkboard tape on the drawers. This allows me to write what is inside the drawers, erase and rewrite when I change the content.

Drink in the Box: Healthier, Safer and Better
I like having eco-friendly options that allow my family and I to make healthier, safer, and better choices. Drink in the Box allows us to make this choice! By using Drink in the Box, we can be environmentally conscious and enjoy fresh juice or milk. We can buy large containers of juice and fill this box or make delicious healthier juice at home, instead of buying individual packs of juice that fill landmines and adds extra expense.

Fusion Mineral Paint: Dresser Project
We are excited to be using the Fusion Mineral Paint to do a variety of projects! Fusion Mineral Paint is an innovative product that is easy to apply, self-leveling, and requires minimal prep work. We like how the end projects have a durable matte finish that lasts for a long time. There are 24 custom-blended colours that we can choose from, which are rich in colour, depth, and hue. The paint is perfect for any of our home décor projects small or large, inside or out. We chose three colours, Upper Canada green, Fort York red, and Champness blue to do a few projects that we are excited about.

Automate Your Home with WeMo
I have heard about the terms "Internet of Things" and Home
Automation, but never expected to try them out myself so soon. What
if all the gadgets in your home can connect to the Internet and be
controlled by you with the help of your smartphone or tablet?
Sounds a bit scary but with the popularity of the Internet,
smartphones, and in home Wi-Fi the future is headed in that
direction. I have been wanting to find out how home automation can
benefit us with the simple things that we use day-to-day and
improve our lifestyle.

Cleaning with the Easy Spin Mop
I like using the Easy Spin Mop to dust, as well as mop, as this mop can be used either dry or wet to clean a variety of different surfaces. It requires very less effort on our part to dehydrate the mop. All we have to do is lightly press it in to the spinner and the water squeezes out of the micro fiber mop head by rotating automatically. This makes it easy to control how much water we want in the mop, depending on the surface we want to clean.

Win Your Own Welcome Mat from Carpet One
I am excited to partner with Carpet One Floor and Home Welcome Mat to bring awareness to the importance of cancer research. For the past decade, Carpet One Floor Home has raised almost a million dollars to support breast cancer research. 25 percent of the proceeds of each Welcome Mat goes towards the research.
