Hi,
I hope today finds you well and happy.
Through research, I found that 500 million straws are used per day in the USA. This came as quite a shock to me. That is a bunch!
Most of them get disposed of after one usage. They can take up to 200 years to decompose.
Plastic straws are in the top ten debris found in our oceans. I watched a YouTube video where a turtle had somehow gotten a straw stuck in it's nose. It cried, as the rescuers pulled it out.
I love the ocean. It makes me sad that people throw trash into something so beautiful and beneficial to our world.
These stainless steel straws will save you $$ and help protect the environment.
These come in a box with a cleaning brush and a cute little "Thank You" card.
These sell on Amazon for less than $6. And, they have a life time guarantee. Ya' just can't beat that!
One should avoid using plastic straws for strong citrus drinks, as the acid from the citrus can pull harmful toxins out of the plastic, and then we drink them. :/
Stainless Steel Straws may be purchased on Amazon.
Wishing Much Love and Happiness to You All!

Hi everyone!
We are having a great day here at Dragonfly Tales! My friend and I are getting ready to head out to do some cosmetic shopping. Wheeeee! I love all the holiday items they bring out at Christmas!
Since My First At Home Mani , which was February 2014, I have not touched cuticle cutters; ....until a few weeks ago.
Well... you see, I had some hangnails, and that made me remember that I had "those cuticle cutters."
I am being honest here when I say: put a pair of cuticle cutters in my hand and I become "Vicki ScissorHands".
I have hack marks on most of my fingers and I'm not sure my thumb is going to survive, as I have barely been able to use it for 5 days.
Seriously, in the event of a zombie attack a cuticle cutter will be my first line of defense! Maybe you should consider getting one too! :)
Now, I told you alllll that, so I could show ya this:
This is why I NEED Professional Nail Files! I (thought) I was cutting my cuticle on the side of my finger.... but no I snapped the edge of my nail right off. So then I tried to even up the top side and well I was left with that jagged mess you see there. It was so sharp I think I could have used it to slit my own throat! Blahahaha!
When I first received 50 mini nail files, I thought "50 files is a little over the top". But, there are several convenient places to keep these mini nail files, and when we had a family gathering, I took some of them to share with others and no one turned me down. I heard comments like; "oh, I always need a good nail file" and "I love the size of these". So, yeh, the human race is crying out for a good nail file. ;)
I also think these would be great to include in a spa day party. Or make up a nail care gift basket, (include cuticle cutters ONLY if you don't like the person you are gifting.) :/
Here are a couple of pictures to show how much wider and thicker these files are compared to others I have. The tan color file is NOT the professional one. Ha!
I really like the grit of these files, they do a great job, and it's nice to share.
Mini Nail Files may be purchased on Amazon.

Hello!
Wow, the holidays are upon us! The older I get, the faster time passes! We are having an early Thanksgiving meal in just a few days and then BAM it's on!
To answer my own question; Yes, I feel one would find a "baby monitor" quite useful even if there are no children in the household.
And, I'm gonna tell ya why!
- Security purposes
- Monitoring an elderly live-in
- Checking in on fur babies
- Checking on an ill family member, without disturbing them
- During the holidays, family members with children may visit. They could monitor their children at play or sleep. They would feel this was very thoughtful of you!
This monitor is reasonably priced, set up is very easy and quick. I am very pleased with how simple it was. I do not do well with reading directions. :)
One downloads an app, hooks the monitor up to their router, and electric, opens the app and fills out the required info.
Once the app shows the monitor is on-line, it is disconnected from the router.
This next image is a screen shot from my cell phone of what the monitor was seeing.
To get different views, one just drags their finger around their cell phone screen and the camera moves. Pretty Neat!
There is also an alarm should one wish to be notified of movement in the cameras viewing area.
SNUG BABY MONITOR may be purchased at Amazon.
Wishing much Love and Happiness to you All !!
