My Best Home, Product Reviews by Valerie M

One of the easiest ways to make a house feel more alive? Add a few plants. 🌿

Houseplants add color, texture, and warmth to a room — and the good news is you don’t need to be an expert to keep them thriving. Some plants are surprisingly low-maintenance and perfect for beginners.

I put together a list of **easy houseplants that are great for first-time plant owners**, plus a few simple tips to help them thrive indoors.

If you've been thinking about adding some greenery to your space, this is a great place to start.

I created this logbook for my Etsy shop… but I've been using it for my daughter.

We’ve been adjusting some medications recently, meeting with specialists, tracking reactions, watching for patterns — and I quickly realized I needed everything in one place.

So I started using the Medication Log Book I designed.

And honestly? It’s been incredibly helpful.

Each week I can:
✔ Track medication doses and timing
✔ Note any side effects or behavior changes
✔ Write down questions before appointments
✔ Keep a simple running record of what’s working (and what’s not)

When you’re managing appointments, prescriptions, and daily life, having it all organized in one place reduces so much stress.

I know I’m not the only parent or caregiver juggling this. If you’re walking through something similar — for yourself, a child, or an aging parent — I wanted to share this tool with you.

If it helps you even half as much as it’s helped us, it will be worth it. 💛

Those who have been with me for more than a minute have seen this one before….

Amazon Prime sale is back!!

My absolute favorite Shark vacuum is always marked way down.

The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Robot combines an ultra-powerful vacuum with Sonic Mopping for a complete clean from start to finish. First, it’s an ultra-powerful whole home vacuum on carpets and floors that empties its own dustbin. Second, it’s an ultra-powerful vacuum that sonic mops hard floors...

4.4 stars on Amazon

****the brand that I reviewed is no longer available... link is a similar product

What I think: I love the bamboo and flexible divider options. For the most part they are staying in place too, even with the kids putting the dishes away.

2 Pack Drawer Organizer sold by the Carry360 Store
3.3 stars on Amazon
~~LINK IN COMMENT~~

What I think: I'd buy this again! BUT you really need a good place to install it... solid wood shelves would be the best application for this. There are so many things that could be organized in these compartments! Here I show you how I organized my tank tops.
