Domino Birthday Keepsake Ornament Tutorial

By 5 Comments

What Could be Cuter than a Domino Birthday Keepsake Ornament?

Domino Birthday Keepsake Box

I decided quite a few year ago that it would really great to create some ornaments that my children would be gifted when then got married or bought their first house. I had seen dominoes altered for jewelry and ornaments on various websites way before pinterest!

I am having my children make ornaments each year but making sure they make doubles or triples. When they grow up and we gift them the Domino Birthday Keepsake Ornament Box they will also receive a set of all the kid ornaments they crafted! This will leave us a set to continue to decorate our tree with until we have grandchildren! I remember getting married and having to go out and buy meaningless ornaments to put on our bare artificial tree, lol. (Now we have loads of ornaments store bought and handmade.)

Giveaway: Sentry Electronic Fire-Safe with USB Connection

By 2 Comments

Sentry Electronic Fire-Safe with USB Connection

 

I have teamed up with Mizz Review Lady and a host of other bloggers to bring you this awesome giveaway!!! Be sure to read her review below, and then enter the giveaway for a Sentry Electronic Fire-Safe with USB connection(Big Bolts USB Safe).

It’s not too late to purchase a safe for your loved ones for Christmas!  Sentry Safe offers a wide selection of innovative safes to fit your every need and desire. No matter what you need to protect they have you covered!  From electronics to guns and even digital media, if you’ve got it, they can protect it!

Sentry Safe has a history of providing customers with high quality safes; in fact, they have been satisfying happy customers for 80 years now, spanning for three generations.  This family owned company was founded in 1930 by John Joh D. Bush Sr. and Willard Punnett. They were the very first to bring consumers the UL classified fire-resistant safe in 1955.  Sentry Safe is dedicated to bringing customers reliable safes, while providing them with a pleasant shopping experience.

I was recently given the opportunity to select a safe from their gift guide,  so as you can imagine I was super excited!  Especially by the fact that I was going to receive a safe from Sentry Safe, because I knew I would be receiving the most utmost quality safe.  Besides that I have been having to store my valuable jewelry at my parents house because I did not have a safe place to put it, that is until I received the Sentry Electronic Fire-Safe with USB connection(Big Bolts USB Safe), from Sentry Safe. I was mostly excited to review this extraordinary safe because it allows me to stay connected to my protected data via a USB 2.0 connection, allowing me to access my protected data while it’s stored in my safe.

The Sentry Electronic Fire-Safe with USB Connection safe has many different useful features including:

  • Advanced and ETL verified 1 hour fire and drop protection to keep your belongings intact and safe
  • Bright, LED interior lighting to make organizing belongings easier
  • 1.2 Cubic Foot Capacity
  • A multi position tray which allows for easy organization
  • ETL verified 15 ft. drop test
  • Dual electronic lock and key increases security
  • 4 live-locking bolts are 60% larger and help prevent unwanted entry and access

And those are just some of this incredible products features!  I have to say I love the fact that it includes an electronic lock and a key making it impossible for my children to break into. That being said I also love the fact that after 5 unsuccessful attempts to enter the code, it automatically shuts down for fifteen minutes. The safe includes a bolt down kit which allows you to bolt it down so that nobody can take off with it.  Even though, I must say it is very heavy, so it’s not the easiest to steal in the first place.  It includes a bright LED light so that you can easily see inside of it, even at night-time.  

Since I have received the safe I have got so much use out of it, and so has my husband.  He was able to store his money, and extra set of keys in it, while I am able to store my jewelry, important documents, and expensive electronics in it.  We can rest assure that they are safe from theft, and even fires and floods.  Yes, I said fires and floods!  This is because the safe has a fire and water-resistant design.  

This safe is just one of many that Sentry Safe are featuring in their holiday gift guide this year.  Scroll down to the bottom of the gift guide and you will find a link that will allow you to print out a copy of the guide, so you can bring it along with you shopping.

BUY IT: You can purchase the Big Bolts USB Safe online at Amazon.

WIN IT: Thanks to Sentry Safe one lucky reader will receive a Big Bolts USB Safe, just like the one pictured in the post.

I’m a part-time stay at home mom of three amazing kids ages 21, 20, and 14. Our family has always been into music and art and we LOVE to be creative! Sister9designs is my outlet for creativity!

In January, 2012 I discovered infinity scarves! They have been a great addition to my shop and I really enjoy experimenting with new colors and color combinations. I am always happy to make custom-colored scarves for my clients.

I also offer cozy sweatshirt fleece blankets and sweatpants that can be personalized with a name, high school or college name, jersey number, graduation year – you name it.

My favorite thing about having a shop on Etsy is the acquaintances and friendships I’ve made along the way with fellow Etsians all over the world! My time on Etsy these past 2 years has been much more enjoyable and rewarding than I ever imagined it could be!
