Today I have a really exciting company to introduce you to called Avthing In Its Place. This wonderful company has some of the most fantastic home furnishings I have ever seen! This store has fireplaces, home entertainment & media furniture, home office furniture, bedroom furniture, jewelry storage, entryway furniture, kitchen furnishings, bathroom furnishings, dining room furniture, waterfall wall decor and so much more! Wow, I could totally remodel and upgrade my entire home by just shopping on Avthing In Its Place! Their variety is just amazing!
My Review: The generous folks over at Avthing In Its Place sent me their SEI HZ6245 Wall Mount Craft Storage Rack w/Baskets in Black for me to review. I have been an avid crafter for 30 years now and I even have an entire room in my home that is dedicated as my craft room. I love all kinds of crafts, especially scrapbooking and quilting. This crafting organizing wall unit measures 35 1/2″ W x 8 1/2″ D x 27 1/2″ H in size. There is a top shelf where you can store all of your small supplies in baskets, bins or in jars (not included). Under that is 2 metal rods where you can store your ribbon rolls, paper rolls and other things that come on rolls like gift basket wrap, etc. Under that is a large shelf that holds 3 rattan baskets (included) where you can store more supplies. I love these baskets as it keeps everything together, neat & organized. Under that are 5 fabulous hooks so you can hang supplies off of them too! I love those hooks as there is so much you can hang off them! Finally, there is another metal rod where you can store more rolled paper, cellophane or ribbon rolls. This rack is such a space saver!
This organizing wall rack can be used in other areas of the home too! I can see it being used in a kitchen to store your spices, herbs, take-out menus, plastic wrap, foil, etc. You get the idea! It would be great in the kid’s room storing all of their arts & craft supplies or even in your laundry room storing all of those laundry supplies we all seem to accumulate!
My Overall Impression: Wow…I have needed something like this for years and now I finally have one! This craft organizing wall unit is extremely well made and it will last for years! I love how the top shelf has the railing so that my items don’t slide off. I love those baskets for storing all of my rubber stamps, ink pads, decorative edge scissors and other scrapbooking supplies. Those metal rods are fabulous for storing all of my ribbons on and now I can easily see each one without dumping my old box all over the floor to find the right one. I can not say enough good things about this rack! I am absolutely IN LOVE with it!

Today I would like to introduce you to a company called Clementine Art who makes awesome naturally non-toxic art supplies. Their line-up includes natural modeling dough, natural paint, natural markers, natural glue, natural crayons and natural crayon rocks. Their products contain only natural ingredients and are certified non-toxic and meet CPSIA requirements.
As a grandmother I am very concerned about the toys, arts & crafts supplies that I let my little granddaughter Gia play with so I have been actively looking for safe alternatives to conventional products and that is when I stumbled upon Clementine Art. This company is very green and they use packaging that is made from recycled stock and printed using soy ink in a wind powdered facility. If you ask me…that is very impressive!
My Review:
Clementine Art graciously sent me a box of their Natural Paints to use for my product review. Since my little Gia is a little too young for the paints just yet, I decided to let my 2 nephews try them out when they were down to visit a few days ago. These Natural Paints are colored with earth-based mineral pigments and they contain no dyes or synthetic additives. We received 1 jar of each of the following colors: red, orange, yellow, green, dark blue and black. These Natural Tempra Paints are washable and long-lasting so great for children to use on poster board for school projects, art canvas boards, etc.
The paints are pretty runny but very pigmented with color, so make sure you are careful when you open them as I spilled the black paint! LOL (it would be a good idea to put a drop cloth down or old newspapers onto your work surface before letting the children paint with them). Anyway, my 2 nephews had a blast with these paints and I left them paint on a few sheets of poster board that I had here. After they were done, I found that the paint cleans out of the paint brushes really easily with some liquid soap and warm water. Furthermore, they had it on their hands and it easily washed off…no scrubbing for days on end to get it off their hands.

Overall Impression:
I think the Clementine Natural Paint’s are just fantastic! I love that they are safe and non-toxic which makes them a great item for kids. I love how easy they wash off of your hands…you don’t need to scrub for hours & you don’t need any chemicals to get the paint off. I think every parent should own a box of these paints and keep them on hand for school projects, art projects or just creative rainy day fun! I give this company 2 grandma thumbs up!
Head on over to the Clementine Art web site and take a look around. I think you will be very impressed with their products. Hint…Hint…Hint…The holidays will be coming & these items make great stocking stuffers for the budding little artist on your holiday list.
I would like to thank Clementine Art for allowing me to do a product review of their Natural Paint Set.
