Melinda Nelson Designs Tile

 

I am one of those people that is completely and totally obsessed with taking pictures of absolutely everything. I love to have pictures of every moment of my life. I can’t exactly say why that is, but I know that I am always taking pictures, as well as scheduling family pictures.

I was lucky enough to be able to personalize a Wrought Iron Frame as well as a Smart Cover for my Ipad from Melinda Nelson Designs.

About the Personalized Wrought Iron 9″ x 18″ Frame with (3) 4″ Tiles:

This is a wonderful personalized photo gift.

This is a Black Wrought Iron Fram that displays three 4″ decorative tiles, plus side scrolls.

When this is kept out of direct sunlight, these tile frames can make long lasting, beautiful momentos for your household.

With the tiles that you choose, you can choose to put words, numbers, or even photos on them. On top of that, you then get to choose if you want to have a gloss, matte, or satin finish.

My Thoughts:

As you can see, my frame turned out wonderful. The pictures that I chose were put on the frame with wonderful, precise perfection. A little while after I chose what pictures I was wanting I received an e-mail proof to make sure that the pictures were in the right order, as well as to make [Read more…]

totseat

 

We are definintely a family that is on the go at most times. Sometimes that means that we are out to eat, but more often, it means that we are at friends or family’s houses, many whom don’t have children. It sure is hard to try and feed a baby or toddler while holding them. But, at the same time I hate to lug along our “travel high chair”, because it takes up so much room. I was lucky enough to be able to review the perfect solution for our problem, The Tot Seat.
