One of the many things we need to do before we have family over for the holidays is clean.  Perfect Planet tries to make our lives with their new product called Squeeze and Clean Floor Cleaner.  It is as easy to use as the title implies.  You literally just need to squeeze the bottle onto your floor, mop with a damp mop, and let dry.  That’s it!  The best part is that this floor cleaner is ecofriendly.  It is made without using harsh petrochemicals, ammonia, VOC’s and phosphates.  You can use it on finished hardwood, linoleum, vinyl, laminate, ceramic tile, marble, grouted tile and non-porous hard surface flooring.

Perfect Planet’s Squeeze & Shine Floor Polish works in conjunction with the Floor Cleaner.  Using it can’t be easier.  Again, all you need to do squeeze it on your floor, spread with a damp mop, and wait 15 minutes for it to dry.  You will definitely notice a difference right after your first use. It will also make your floor more resistant to dirt, scuff marks, and scratches.  It contains no heavy metals, ammonia or formaldehyde.

I recently came across a ton of items that I can definitely use in my kitchen, and I know you can too!  These are all made my Weiman Products and should be every kitchen!

First, the Weiman Stainless Steel Wipes work great and work on pretty much every stainless steal product you may own.  They clean, shine, polish, and protect.  It leaves a greaseless streak free shine.  It also repels fingerprints (which is a huge thing for me with two little ones who like to touch everything), watermarks, dirt, and dust.  I love that you can use it both indoor and outdoors.  You can find them at Ace Hardware, Expo Design Center, Kmart, Target, True Value, and Walmart.

Next, I tried out the Weiman Granite Wipes.  I don’t have granite counter countertops in my kitchen.  However, these worked excellent on my laminate countertop.  However, I do have a granite sink in my bathroom, so I have been using these there.  The granite wipes easily removed grease, grime, dirt, and toothpaste.  This workds well on Corian, cermanic, chrome, and fiberglass.  It is also certifited Kosher.  These can be found at Target, Walmart, True Value, Kroger, and Publix.

One of my all time favorites is the Weiman CookTop Quick Wipes.  I hate cleaning my stovetop off and having a ton of streaks!  Now, these wipes are the nation’s top rated brand for glass cook top wipes according to IRI and ACNielsen.  They clean, shine, and protect with just one wipe (which is exactly what us busy moms need!).  This won’t scratch and actually helps prevent food from sticking.  This is also certified Kosher.  These are available at Target, Walmart, Ace Hardware, True Value, Expo Design Center, Kroger, and Publix.

My other most favorite product of theirs has to be the Weiman CookTop Scrubbing Pads.  Since my stove is fairly new, I had to use anything that might even scratch it.  However, no matter how careful you are, stuff gets spilled on your stove.  It just happens.   The scrubbing pads are guaranteed not to scrach and are safe for all smooth top range.  These also reduct clean up time by up to 50%!  I use these in conjuction with the Cook Top Cleaner, and you don’t have to use a lot of elbow grease to get the food up. These can be found at Ace Hardware, True Value, and Walmart.

I always feel that if you find a brand that works, you should stick to it.  This is a brand that works, and it works great!

I always have to laugh when I read about everyone else besides me who hates doing laundry.  Actually, it isn’t the “doing” of the laundry we hate — it is the folding and putting away.  What I tend to do, and yes I know better, is leave everything in the baskets way to long, and it ends up looking like I didn’t even wash it.  The other thing that happens (and that I hate) is when you wear a pair of dress pants once (and they are dry clean only), and they look horribly wrinkly after.  The Refresh’n Dryer Towel is one of those items you wonder how you lived without.  It works really easy.  All you do is pick up the clothes that you want to unwrinkle, through them in your dryer, get the towel wet, and put it in.  You then start the dryer and dry for around 10 – 15 minutes.  That is it!  Your clothes will come out great and unwrinkled!  You can use this on jeans, slacks, shorts, dresses, sweaters, etc.  Honestly, this will save you a lot on dry cleaning costs when you are just taking your stuff in to get the wrinkles out (am I the only one who does that?)

Here’s what I love about the Refresh’n Dryer Towel.  It is easy to use.  With two little ones, I can’t have intricate directions.  There are no chemicals involved, so I don’t have to worry about my kids getting into it.  The towel is able to kill bacteria and odor (with the steam) and also traps lint, dust and dirt.  I will be saving on dry cleaning costs.  In this economy, if I can save on anything, I’ll happily take it.  I also love that you can save approximately 700 gallons of water and 90 kwh of electricity when used on wash and wear clothing.  Lastly, I love it, because it really does work!

I personally have a lot of outdoor plants. I was actually outside cutting down a lot of my dead plants today. Since I am allergic to life itself, (Yes, you may laugh at that statement. However, I was allergy tested, and I was allergic to every single thing they tested me for,) I always wear gloves when doing any sort of yard work. I love my Ethel Gloves. First, I have super small hands. I never can find gloves that are 4 sizes too big.  However, these gloves fit like a charm (they also come in several sizes, so if you have bigger hands, they will fit you too).  Second, I love the feel of them.  The inside of these are super soft, so they actually feel nice to wear.  They also have elastic around the wrists.  For me, that is heaven sent, because when I am pulling weeds and dead plants out, I always get dirt into my gloves (which negates the use of the gloves most of the time).  With Ethel Gloves, I did not have that problem.  What is the thing I love most about these?  They are machine washable!

This definitely makes an awesome gift to the woman in your life if she does any sort of gardening outside.  We are always looking for fashionable gloves that fit well and do the job we need them to.  Ethel Gloves fits all of the above, so she’ll love them!

If you have athletes in your house, you definitely need to look into getting some Cleatskins.  This is one of those products that it is hard to believe no one has come up with before, because it is so genius.  They are designed to fit over cleated shoes and quickly and conveniently take athletes from the field to the street.  These fit over all types of cleats:  baseball, soccer, football and more.  I remember when I played soccer in high school, and I would have at least two pairs, if not three pairs, of shoes I brought school.  I hated that after practice or a game, we always had to change into a different pair of schools.  I know that this is something we will definitely be investing in when my kids get a tad older and are in sports.  All of the floors in my house are real hardwood, and I will not have them marking it up.  They also protecting your cleats from wear and tear, and are machine washable (that has to be a mom favorite right there!).  It also creates a sealed barrier which keeps dirt and grass out of your home and car.

If you have an athlete in your family, this is the perfect Christmas gift.  These come in a multitude of sizes and colors, so you should have no problem finding a Cleatskin for the favorite athlete in your life.
