Lea's Prime Purchases

How is it June 30th?  I mean, didn't we just celebrate Christmas? Truly, time is flying by and as so many say, the older we get, the quicker it flies.  But, for now, I'll share with you my recent Prime "finds" and we'll not think about how quickly the days are going by.  Hope you enjoy!

SKECHERS  WEDGE. SLIP ON

I love a wedge slip-on and these are just too cute!  And, I have several pair of Skechers and like them a lot.  I got these more with fall and winter in mind but went ahead and got them as I was afraid they might not be available then. There are a couple other color choices as well.

AMAZON

Hydrating  Spray

I need to use lotion after I shower due to skin dryness.  I get so tired of applying it and thought I'd give this hydrating spray a try.  It is great and, for me, a much quicker way to moisturize my skin.  

AMAZON

PLATFORM  WEDGE  SANDAL

I do not wear white shoes very often but, every so often I need a pair of white sandals. I found these and they "fit the bill" for me.  And, they come in several colors too.  I really like the addition of the cork.

AMAZON

DISPOSABLE  BAKING TINS WITH LIDS

If you've been hanging around my blog for long then you know I LOVE to bake.  And, I'm always looking for cute containers to bake in or package my baked goods in.  These are the cutest way to bake little mini cakes and they make a nice individual serving.  I've used them twice for cake and once for brownies. I only fill them half full for brownies and a little past half for cake.  After the cake rises during baking there is still plenty of room for icing and then you can cover it with the neat lid that comes with them. 

AMAZON

SLIM  HANDHELD  CORDLESS VACCUM 

I have a love affair with vacuum cleaners.~chuckle~ This one is so handy to grab for narrow spaces, such as in and around car seats, furniture cushions and the such.  It has a nice array of attachments.  I generally just use the crevice attachment.

AMAZON

AUTOMATIC  CARD  SHUFFLER

Okay, if you need a card shuffler, look NO further.  I have owned 2-3 automatic shufflers over the years and none of them worked as they should.  Cards would get hung up and it was very frustrating.  I decided to look for a new one and when I saw the reviews for this one I decided to give it a try.  It is awesome!  And, it's rechargeable and works like a charm and is quick as lightening.  It will shuffle up to 2 decks at a time.  The gran girls and I play a lot of cards and they put their stamp of approval on it the first time they used it. 

AMAZON

DISPOSABLE  TIN  BAKING  CUPS  WITH  DOME  LIDS

Here's some more cute baking tins.  They are perfect for cupcakes and have domed lids to accommodate a thicker icing.  And, the lids make them very portable. 

AMAZON

BAGGALLINI  GO  BAGG

I call this my "shopping purse."  It isn't big enough for all the stuff that I carry in my much bigger purse, but it is plenty big enough for all I need when shopping or running errands.  And, I generally will put my bigger purse in the car on the floor behind my seat, just in case I need something out of it.  This is such a cute bag and goes with everything.  It comes in several colors and is so lightweight.

AMAZON

24" ARTIFICIAL  BOXWOOD  WREATH

Since we moved in this house almost 10 years ago I have not hung a wreath on our door.  We have a large iron ornate door that I felt didn't really need a wreath.  Plus, I didn't want to have to store wreaths from season to season.  Well, fast forward to now.  I decided that a simple green wreath with a sash to match the season might be a good look for our door.  So, I ordered this faux boxwood wreath.  It is lush and beautiful and I will only change the sashes with the seasons, thus, no need to store a wreath.  The sashes will co-ordinate with the pillows on the benches on the porch.  These wreaths come in various sizes.  I chose the 24" as our door is very big.

AMAZON

WREATH  SASH

As I've said many times, I'm not sure there's anything that Amazon doesn't have.  I mean, who would have thought that you could find wreath sashes on Amazon.  Not me.  But, I decided to check and "wa-la" there are lots and lots of all sizes and descriptions. Easy peasy!

AMAZON

DECORATIVE  THROW  PILLOW  COVERS

These are such great pillow covers and comes in an array of colors.  These are the covers I use for summer on my front porch.  I use 22" pillows as they are larger and really make a nice statement from the road.  

AMAZON

15 SQUARE  NECK  SCARVES

And, neck scarves are making a come back.  This package of solid colors will likely cover any need you might have for a neck scarf.  They are especially nice if you are wearing a top with a design and not a solid color.  They are a "satiny" fabric and are such a fun accessory. And, so inexpensive.

AMAZON

SCARF  RINGS

There are lots of scarf accessories out there but these are some I ordered.  These are great if you want a different look from just tying the scarf in some sort of knot.  Browse "scarf accessories" and you will find a whole lot more choices.

AMAZON

Okay, that's it folks.  Hope you enjoyed and perhaps found something you had to go and put in your cart.  Until next time.............

Lea's Prime Purchases

I know, I know, I've been MIA for a while but thought I'd  do a Prime Purchase entry for all those of you that have missed them.  It seems to be a favorite of many, and I do enjoy sharing my "finds" with you because they may resonate with you as they did with me.  I keep thinking I'll get back to regular blogging as well but.......... Perhaps that will happen in the not so distant future, but, for now, I'll try to keep up the Prime Purchase entries.

OSTRICH  FEATHER  DUSTER

I do love our high ceilings but, dusting/cleaning the ceiling fans , door facing tops, tops of window facings, etc.  You get the drift.  This duster is GREAT!  Is it as good as a cloth that I would use with my hands? NO! But, it's as good as it's going to get around here.  Ladders are out of the question at this point for sure, so I'm more than happy with the results of this dandy feather duster that extends to the length I need.  AND, it's lightweight, another good thing.  

AMAZON

OUTDOOR  CHAIR  CUSHION

Some of our outdoor furniture was in need of new cushions this spring.  In the past, Amazon has had little to no selection.  But, this year, they have all kinds of choices in all sizes and patterns.  They no longer have this pattern in stock but they have several other choices in stock.  They are so well made and are in the weather/sun resistant fabric.  We are very pleased.

AMAZON

SMALL  SILK  SCARF

I do love a short neck scarf but haven't worn them in several years.  Well, they're making a comeback and Amazon has a HUGE selection at really good prices. I think they can be such a nice addition to an outfit.  I ordered a few in some different patterns.

AMAZON

APPLE  CORER

How did I not know about this little jewel?  My daughter told me about this a few weeks ago and I immediately went and ordered it.  It is so, so easy to use and then you just slice the apple and eat away.  I do love a good kitchen gadget!

AMAZON

WHITE  DENIM  JACKET

Who doesn't love a denim jacket?  This one is so cute and I do love the frayed hem.  I end up wearing a jacket even in the hottest of months because so many places I go are so cold on the inside.  That's especially true when eating out or going to church.  I liked this jacket so much that I got the black one as well.  I mean "if one is good, two is better." Right? 😀 It comes in several colors.

AMAZON

FASINATOR

I recently needed either a hat or a fascinator for an event I was attending.  I saw these and decided I would go with a fascinator.  Well, it was too cute, clipped in my hair so easily and was ONLY $10. It comes in about 20 different colors so if you need a little "snazz" in your life, order yourself one. I may never have a need to wear one again so I was very pleased it was so inexpensive. 

AMAZON

CONAIR  CLOTHES  STEAMER

I've had a clothes steamer for years but my last one "bit the dust." I browsed through Amazon and this seemed to be highly rated so I ordered it.  I made a good decision.  It has the best burst of steam and does a fantastic job.  If you need a steamer, I highly recommend this one.

AMAZON

SKIRTED CAPRI LEGGING

Ladies, these are toooooooo cute and soooooooooo comfortable! I wear them running errands and such.  They are cute enough to wear most anywhere.  And, there are so many different prints to choose from.  Get yourself some.

AMAZON

ATHLETIC  QUICK DRY T-SHIRT

I ordered this cute shirt to wear with the above skirted capri leggings.  It comes in many different colors as well.  Both wash beautifully.

AMAZON

CORDLESS  HOT  GLUE  GUN

Every so often I need/want a hot glue gun.  My granddaughter had this one and it is the "bees knees."  I mean, it's cordless and who has time for a bothersome cord on a hot glue gun.  It is so easy to use, heats up extra fast and I think they are a great item to have on hand.

AMAZON

LIGHTED  MAGNIFYING  GLASS

I know that I am "older" but surely even the younger crowd has a hard time reading directions on some over the counter meds, vitamins and the such.   Lord have mercy, could they possibly print them any smaller! Well, it's no longer an issue for me with this little "jewel." I'm pretty sure I will find other uses for it as well.

AMAZON

TRELLIS  FOR  CLIMBING  PLANTS

If you should need a trellis for a pot then these are for you.  We have two Mandevilla plants in pots and we needed trellis that would work in a pot.  These are perfect and look so nice.  I've about decided that whatever you might be looking for, Amazon likely has it.  It's insane but oh, so, convenient!

AMAZON

RETAINE  EYE  DROPS

I've decided that if you are over 55 you likely have issues with dry eyes.  Goodness, it is so aggravating and I'm always looking for the next "best thing" when it comes to drops.  I have a prescription drop but these seem to be even better.  They come in vials and I get three uses out of each vial.  One of my sweet friends told me about these and I'm so glad.

AMAZON

ADJUSTABLE  SHEPHERD'S  HOOK

If you have a heavy hanging basket that you want to hang on a Shepherd's Hook then this "bad boy" is exactly what you need.  We like to hang baskets of asparagus ferns in our flower beds.  They can be a bit heavy and cause a regular Shepherd's Hook to lean and that looks so tacky and aggravates me too death.  I knew they had to make some for heavier baskets and sure enough they do.  The 5 prongs keep it level and it is made of heavy duty metal.  Again, Amazon to the rescue!

AMAZON

JERGENS  NATURAL  GLOW  SELF  TANNER

I've likely shared this awesome find before but it's worth repeating.  This is the BEST self tanner I have ever used and believe you me, I've tried way too many of them.  This comes in Fair to Medium and Medium to Dark.  It is creamy, applied with your bare hands, dries quickly and afterwards you have a very natural tan glow.  It provides me with the perfect natural looking tan and it's only $10 a tube that will last a very long time.  A small amount goes a long ways.  Give it a try!

AMAZON

SEMI-CIRCLE  CUSHION  FOR  OFFICE  CHAIR

I have a wonderful office chair in our home office.  BUT, the seat is too deep and I've tried several "make shift" solutions to no avail.  Again, I began browsing Amazon and ran across this very odd looking pillow configuration.  The best part, for me, it WORKS!  The whole concept is genius. It supports me from my lower back up through my shoulders.  Win! Win!  I can't imagine how someone's mind worked to design something such as this ~ just sayin'

AMAZON

Well, that was fun and I hope you enjoyed reading about my recent "finds."  I'm going to do my best to get back to regular posting of my Prime Purchases.

Until next time, I leave you with this.................

January and February Prime Purchases

I must first apologize for not having a January Prime Purchase.  Some of you have asked me about it and I just couldn't seem to get it together.  I came down with the flu on Christmas Eve and it pretty much ruined my Christmas.  I was a sick puppy, as sick as I have been in a very long time. That set me back and I was so behind on several things that a Prime Purchase post was on the bottom of my list.  ~just being honest~  

But, I am excited to share a "double doozie" with you today and I'll try not to let that happen again.  I was thrilled to find that many of you really enjoy this post and often see an item that you add to your cart as well.  I enjoy recommendations too, so I'm happy I can recommend some of my "finds" to you as well.

JEWELRY  BOX

First, let me just say that I am NOT a fan of jewelry boxes.  I probably haven't had one in 40-50 years. But, I decided a couple of months ago that I wanted "something" to put my nicer fashion jewelry in.  I have stored my jewelry in the smaller, various size bead bags for years. That protects it and keeps the necklace, bracelet and earrings all together and I never have to hunt to find matching pieces. And, it makes grabbing it when we travel "easy peasy."  This box has worked beautifully for my nicer pieces. They are protected, easily seen and it holds a lot.  And, it's so attractive and comes in several colors. So, if you are looking for a nice jewelry box, I highly recommend this one.

AMAZON

LUCKY  BRAND ANKLE  BOOT

I have 2-3 pair of Lucky Brand ankle boots but I did not have a brown pair.  Now, I do. They are the perfect height and very comfortable.

AMAZON

BURST  PRO  SONIC  TOOTHBRUSH

I was in need of a new electric toothbrush when I saw my dentist in December.  She recommended this one and I really like it.  One charge lasts for probably a month and it recharges very fast.  It comes in white and this rose gold.

AMAZON

NATURAL  ACACIA  SLIDING  APPLIANCE TRAY

The appliance pull tray I have used for years finally "bit the dust" recently.  As I was browsing looking at what was available, I ran across this one.  It was exactly what I wanted and needed and it is so attractive.  I love Acacia wood and this works so smoothly pulling my coffee pot in and out from under the cabinet.  It's super sturdy too, no wobble whatsoever.

AMAZON

MICROFIBER  MOP  PADS

Our entire house has hardwood floors (ceramic in bathrooms) and when you have wood floors there are times you have to have a dust mop.  I have one of the old fashioned dust mops but I much prefer these smaller pads that fit right on to a Swiffer mop head.  I use them  under furniture, behind doors and places hard to reach with a vacuum  cleaner.  I really think these are superior to a vacuum cleaner as they grab dust and cob webs so much better.  I love the way they clean!

AMAZON 

CREVICE  CLEANER  BRUSHES

I'm sure by now you have figured out that I LOVE anything that makes cleaning easier and more thorough. I saw these brushes and was sure I had a need for them.  They are especially great around the base of a commode, and ceramic tile.  I'm sure I'll find more uses the longer I use them.

AMAZON

PROTEIN  INFUSED  WATER

In recent years I have really become aware of how important protein is in our daily diets. I'm always looking for easy ways to get protein and this protein infused water hit the spot.  I have not seen it in any stores in our area so, of course, I went straight to Amazon and there is was.  I first saw it on Tick Tock.  I was a bit concerned that I would not like the taste but I like it very much.  It comes in a variety pack and a peach/mango pack.  I love peach and mango so that's the flavor I went with and I drink at least one a day and one bottle has 15 grams of protein.  The down side is that it is a bit pricey.

AMAZON

NON-SLIP  HANGERS  FOR  SWEATERS

I may have featured these before because this is my second time to order them.  They are the absolute best hanger for sweaters and heavy knits.  They prevent hanger indentions on the shoulders and nothing can slide off of them.  I love them!

AMAZON

IRONING  BOARD  COVER

I cannot remember the last time I've had a new ironing board cover but it's been wayyy toooo looong. My old one had definitely seen better days.  Of course, I immediately went to Amazon and began browsing and what a selection they had.  I thought this was an attractive print and would make me happy as I iron, so I ordered it and am so pleased.  It comes with a pad and the fit was perfect!

AMAZON

In closing.........And, for those of you that haven't heard, my precious Daddy went to be with Jesus last Wednesday night. He began going downward over the weekend and on Monday, January 27th, he was hospitalized.  It was downhill from there until he drew his last breath on Wednesday evening.  My youngest brother and his wife arrived Tuesday afternoon and he and I had some very precious moments with Daddy that we both will treasure forever.   I'll be trying to find my new "normal" since I've been the overseer of his care for the past 14 years. It will be so different but I rejoice in his homegoing as he is enjoying a glorious reunion. in his new body with eyes that can now see.

December Prime Purchases

Oh, my goodness folks!  Here we are and it's December and Christmas is just around the corner. I truly can't believe 2024 has gone by so quickly.  But, it has and if you are still looking for Christmas gift ideas, perhaps this post will assist you.

LUXURY  MOP  SOAP

I saw a Tic Toc reel about this floor cleaner that not only cleaned but had a great scent as well.  And, I'm a sucker for all things in the cleaning catagory.  I use this in my battery operated mop and I am very pleased with the result.  I use 1/3 cleaner and 2/3 water.  It doesn't streak my wood floors and the house smells fresh and clean afterwards.  

AMAZON

CHRISTMAS  BAKERY  BOXES

These are too cute folks and if you do "baking and giving" during the holidays, these might be for you. They come with everything to wrap and tie them most attractively.

AMAZON

4  IN  1  USB  CABLE  CORD

This is a very handy cable as it fits multiple items and cuts down on all the cords for all the gadgets. This fits our phones and our tablets.  I'm all about fewer cords!!!  A great stocking stuffer.

AMAZON

MINI  DISPOSABLE  LOAF  PANS

Again, if you are a baker, these might be something you would enjoy during the holidays as well as all the time.  They are a loaf shape and there's multiple things they can be used for.  They can be tied up so attractively and make a lovely gift.

AMAZON

LEG  CRAMP  TABLETS

Hubby can have some leg cramps at times that cause him big time misery.  We heard about these and I ordered them and he calls them "miracle pills."  I seldom have leg cramps but I had one recently that definitely got my attention.  I took one of these and within a couple minutes I had relief.  You place them under your tongue and they go to work.  It's called "sweet relief."

AMAZON

SKETCHERS  PLATFORM  SNEAKERS

I love a platform shoe and this sneaker is so cute and comes in 3 colors and is so comfortable.

AMAZON

CHRISTMAS  EARRINGS

If you enjoy cute and fun holiday earrings, then go grab these.  I mean, they are so cute and the price can't be beat.  The trees and peppermints are my favorite!

AMAZON

FIRE  STICK

It has taken us a while, but we are in the process of setting up YouTube TV on all our TV's and doing away with cable.  Our local cable service leaves so much to be desired and leaves us so frustrated.  My brother and his wife were here a couple of weeks ago and set us up with YouTube TV on our main TV and we've been so pleased.  All of our TV's are smart but some are not smart enough to have apps, thus, the Firestick.  It enables them to have apps and for us to put YouTube TV on them.  It works off of WiFi and, unlike our cable, our WiFi is great. So, looks like we are joining the forces of streaming TV.  

AMAZON

BLING  WATCH  CASE

I just got a new Apple watch, series 10 with a HUGE face.  I could not resist this blingy face cover. I know, I know!  It would sure make a fun stocking stuffer.

AMAZON

And, there you have it, this month's prime purchases.  I hope each of you will have a non-hurried, enjoyable Christmas season.  My shopping is done and most gifts are wrapped.  Our tree is up and will be decorated tomorrow and that is about all the decor I do anymore.  I have the front porch all decked out and welcoming and we have some fun events to attend in the coming days.  I'm hoping for smooth sailing and an enjoyable season and I wish the same for you.
