Looking for Hotel Supplies?

When hubby and I were married, we enjoyed a very fun honeymoon in sunny Florida. I had never been to Disney and so just in case we never were able to get their in our lifetime, we decided to go for our honeymoon and had a blast! When going to Florida, the hotel we chose was a big deal. Being that we had just spend alot of money on our wedding, we were...umm...kind of broke. So, we had to compromise and go with a cheaper hotel, which around Disney, means it was still a nice hotel.
As a guest in a hotel, I have no clue about what goes into running a hotel but I will say that I am VERY observant in each hotel in which I stay. Some hotels have fantastic rooms, others have dumpy rooms. It just depends on who you go with. Well, if you happen to own a hotel, I wanted to tell you about where you can get Hotel Supply Online and shopping at this site could not be easier! PeachSuite is a family owned and operated business that supplies hotel owners with all the items they need to make their hotel inviting and comfortable for guests. 

What I love about PeachSuite is that all of their products are organized in easy-to-find categories. If you are looking for Hotel Bar Supplies, they have you totally covered with a wide selection of anything you could think of that would be found in a bar. I don't typically go to bars but sometimes there are restaurants inside of bars and in a hotel situation, that could be appealing to me. 

Also, if you are a hotel owner and are looking for Atlanta Hotel Supply, this company has some classy items that would look fantastic in your hotel! So, check out PeachSuite today and find out just how luxurious and affordable your hotel could look, feel and cost. Their website is super easy to navigate and they really do carry everything that you will need now or down the road. 

This is a sponsored post however, all thoughts and ideas are 100% mine.

Holiday Gift Guide ~ Travalo: Take Your Favorite Perfume ANYWHERE! (Review & Giveaway...Open Worldwide)


With the holidays right around the corner, I'm sure most of you might have travel plans. Whether it is travelling to a different state or even country, or just across town we all have places to go and people to see when it comes to this time of year. Our family traveled the week before Thanksgiving and one of my biggest complaints about packing for trips is the fact that my all time favorite perfume bottle is HUGE and doesn't fit well into my suitcase. This has always been a problem so I usually end up taking something else...or nothing at all. When shopping for travel sized containers, it is always easy to find the small bottles for shampoo and body wash and even for baby wipes! But no one seems to have an easy solution for easily taking your perfume with you when you travel...until now!
Travalo is a company that makes...drum roll please...Refillable Perfume Bottles that are TRAVEL SIZE!!! I have heard about Travalo before but had never looked into them. I am kicking myself now because I wish I had one for all those trips I have taken with no perfume! Today, I am going to show you how Travalo works and how you can get one (or two, or three...) for yourself or for someone on your Christmas list! Here is a little more information about this fantastic company...

We are a British company, based in Dundee, Scotland. Our products are made to international quality assurance standard ISO 9001, environmental standard ISO 14001, and fair working conditions and ethical standards SA 8000. We aim to produce and deliver the world's best fragrance bottles, and finally make perfume portable and safe to carry. We don't want to make hundreds of products. We want to sell a few brilliant ones that everyone can enjoy. Travalo is the 'genius' refillable mini perfume bottle atomizer spray that refills easily directly from a big fragrance spray bottle, like magic from one sealed bottle to another sealed bottle. Tough and leak proof, you can freshen up fragrance anywhere!

When I contacted Travalo about being featured in my Holiday Gift Guide, I was thrilled when they agreed to work with me! I was so excited to finally have the opportunity to experience this product first hand.
So, for this review I was sent two Travalo Perfume Bottles. One is a darker pink color and the other is gold. These bottles are about 3 inches tall and have no sharp corners on them, making them easy to slip into a pocket, purse or carry-on.
My first question was where to find directions on how to use this product. My worries were quickly eased when I opened the carrying case and found the (2 step...so easy!) directions neatly printed on a small piece of paper, nestled around the Travalo.
My next question was "is it as easy to fill as it looks?" That question was also quickly answered. There are two ends to the bottle. One end is the sprayer, where you would pump and apply the perfume. The other end has a special refill opening that you press onto the perfume bottle to transfer the perfume from one container to the other.
So, to fill the Travalo all you do is remove the spray cap on your perfume bottle. Keeping your perfume bottle on a flat surface is important, as is keeping the cap on the Travalo. This will keep you from spraying yourself while pumping the perfume into the Travalo. Next, just pump the Travalo and watch the perfume fill through the window! It could not be any easier. I had NO issues at all with this and was actually quite impressed with how simple and quickly this was done.
Once filled, your perfume is ready to use...anytime, anywhere! Take it with you to your Holiday parties and get-togethers. Make the other ladies jealous when you are in the powder room freshening up and pull out this tiny perfume bottle...filled with your favorite perfume!
A Travalo will give you 50-65 sprays and range in prices from about $12.00 to $25.60...depending on the size and style you want. If you would like to keep up with Travalo, you may do so by "Liking" them on Facebook and following them on Twitter. They always have something fun happening on Facebook so make sure you check them out and stay up to date on what is new and exciting!

So, in my opinion...Travalo is an amazing product!! I love how I can take my favorite perfume anywhere, without having to tote along a huge bottle. Travalo would make an absolutely stunning stocking stuffer for anyone and I would definitely recommend them!

Travalo has offered to giveaway two Travalo Excels (the same style I received) to one of my readers...in winner's choice of colors! This giveaway is open worldwide. Here are your entry options...

Holiday Gift Guide ~ EatSmart Precision Voyager Luggage Scale {Review & Giveaway}

When it comes to travel, it seems that you can never pack enough. We are a family of five and I dread having to pack us up to go anywhere. When you have children, there is so much gear that you have to drag everywhere...car seats, diaper bags, baby carriers, strollers, etc. However, that is really nothing compared to all the clothes that need to be packed! We are going to Chicago in a month and I am really not looking forward to packing for the children. Think about it, it will be cold so not only will I need warm clothes, I will also need hats, coats, and changes of clothes in case one outfit gets soiled. My youngest is 6 months old and he always needs at least one more change of clothes than the older children. Thank goodness we are driving and not flying. Taking a plane is definitely faster than driving, but I hate all the travel rules and regulations that have been put into place now. The worst one (especially for families) is the one that charges you extra money if your bags weigh too much. How in the world are you supposed to be able to fit all your luggage into just a few suitcases when you are packing for more than 2 people??? Do they really expect you to bring an empty suitcase to the airport terminal so you can un-stuff one suitcase and transfer the extra stuff the the empty one to avoid being charged extra money? Pure silliness if you ask me.
Well, if you are gearing up for Holiday travel and want to be sure you don't over pack your suitcases, I have a really neat gadget to introduce you to that will help make packing easier! This product will also make an amazing gift for that frequent flier in your life. The EatSmart Precision Voyager Digital Luggage Scale is a hand-held luggage scale that allows you to check the weight of your baggage BEFORE you head to the airport!

Before I continue, here is a bit more about EatSmart and their commitment to provide healthy and innovative products...


We know that maintaining a healthy, happy lifestyle is a constant challenge. At EatSmart we want to give customers the tools and confidence to meet the challenge head on. Founded in 2005, EatSmart Products is a leading designer and manufacturer of high quality, user friendly digital scales into the US market. The EatSmart product line currently includes some of the most accurate and reliable bathroom, kitchen and luggage scales available on the market today. Every EatSmart Scale is engineered to the highest precision standards, easy to use and uniquely designed to provide customers with consistently reliable products.


Prior to my writing this post, I had heard about their wonderful products mostly through blog reviews. The most popular item that I can recall reading about was their EatSmart Kitchen Scale. So, hearing that they had a luggage scale was wonderful! I was definitely excited to feature this product in my Holiday Gift Guide!
So, for this review I was sent an EatSmart Precision Voyager Luggage Scale to check out and I love it! What I love the most is the portability. It is small enough to take with you anywhere and can fit in any purse, bag or carry-on.
This scale is designed to be held by both of your hands as you pick up your luggage...which is attached to the strap that hangs down from the handle.
Designed to hold up to 110 pounds, this portable luggage scale will read in pounds or kilograms. All you do is press the "UNIT" button and it will change the reading into the desired unit. It also has a really nice digital display that has a bright blue back light, making it super easy to see and read.
To use, simply attach the scale to the handles of your bag and then hold so the bag is not touching the ground. For this review, I weighed my diaper bag. I am always being told that my diaper bag is SO heavy, I wanted to see exactly how heavy it really is. My bag weighs a grand total of 4.6 pounds. :) So, it isn't as heavy as everyone thinks. HA!
I can really see how this luggage scale would come in handy for frequent travelers  I don't travel as much as I used to but remember those days well. The EatSmart Precision Voyager Luggage Scale is available for purchase from Amazon and retails for $19.95. Be sure to follow EatSmart on Facebook and also on Twitter so you can stay up to date on new products, coupons and specials! 

EatSmart has offered to give away one of these luggage scales to one of you! This giveaway should end in time for you to give this as a Christmas gift if you so choose...get your entries in today!
