Invisble Shoes Review and Giveaway!

Gift Guide Post #

Hi Neighbors!

How many of you are like me and love to go barefoot? I try to wear shoes as little as possible. My husband laughs because I shed my shoes at the front door, and usually wander barefoot in our yard. A couple of the children are doing this also. So, when I heard of Invisible Shoes I thought, why not! I received a pair made for me, and a DIY kit. My husband of course smirked when he saw them. The actually "shoe", looks like a thin piece of tire tread, which you wear on your foot with laces. And you can even choose the color of laces, so you can color co-ordinate with your outfit!

These are so comfortable!

Glad there is instruction on how to lace these!

I chose purple laces and pink laces. They are actually quite comfortable. I did have to get used to the laces, but it really was not uncomfortable, just not used to it. They are very comfortable after walking in them. Invisible Shoes are also called Huaraches, or Barefoot Running Sandals. Now, I am not up to running yet, but they sure are nice for walking! You need to send them a tracing of your foot to have a personalized pair, and there is a DIY kit. The DIY kit comes with laces, a piece of outsole and two laces. You can do some trimming if necessary on the the sole, and add your holes between the toes. You then add your laces. There are plenty of good videos on the Invisible Shoes website to show you how to accomplish this. You can even add beads, charms and pendants to your Invisible Shoes.

Invisible Shoes would make a great gift idea for the runner in your life. Or perhaps for someone like me who loves to go barefoot, but just needs a little protection. These are seriously comfortable to wear. I can actually wander the yard now without worry of stepping on something, and yet still enjoy the barefoot feel! Both durable and comfortable.

From Invisible Shoes:
"Our huaraches are made with either our exclusive FeelTrue™ rubber or 4mm Vibram Cherry sole material. The FeelTrue™ outsoles are the only rubber outsole made specifically for barefoot running sandals, and they come in either 4mm or 6mm thicknesses. So far nobody has outworn the soles of their Invisible Shoes. The 4mm FeelTrue™ Contact gives great protection, whether you’re running streets or trails, while also providing the most barefoot feel you can possibly get. The 6mm FeelTrue™ Connect adds a bit of extra protection for when you want a “smoother” ride.
We also make our huaraches with colorful polypropylene and nylon lace. They’re soft, strong, don’t stretch, are waterproof and, maybe best of all, look really cool. Plus, they keep your cost down."

Invisible Shoes will be sending the winner of this giveaway a custom pair of Invisible Shoes.

Disclosure:I received no monetary compensation for this post. I did receive two pairs of Invisible Shoes for review purposes. All quotes are taken from the Invisible Shoes email or website. All thoughts and opinions are mine.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June. Our family has been taking the time between now and then to be together and remember what a light mom was. I came on towards the end of last year and was planning on fully moving my interviews and review to this website. I intend to to so partially to keep mommas beautiful website going. Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. ~Mercy
