JAWS is simple to use.  Just fill the reusable  spray bottle with water, pop in the super-concentrated cleaning  cartridge, and you’ve got an eco-friendly powerful cleaner in a  snap. It’s innovative, easy to use, inexpensive, and reduces plastic  in landfills, conserves resources and saves you cash. When you  finish your JAWS starter kit and buy the recyclable cartridge  refills, you’ll get two full bottles of cleaner for less than $3.00 each!  (A starter bottle is around $5).

There are four different cleansers, to make sure you can clean your whole house, with JAWS.  The glass and hard surface area are perfect for mirrors, windows, and worked great on my whiteboard!  The multi-purpose cleaned my entire kitchen, and eliminated the grease from the stove top.  The disinfectant worked great in both the kitchen and bathroom, to kill germs and on other heavily touched areas like door knobs, telephone, etc.  Finally, the bathroom cleaner worked great on my tile in the shower, as well as the counter-top, sink and other areas in the bathroom.

What’s even better is this is a locally own business, right here in Toledo!   So by using these products, I’m supporting our local business, and families.  I love that once you have a spray bottle, you only need to buy a new cartridge.  Therefore, you are not throwing out so much waste material! I love helping to protect the environment, and this is doing just that.

You can find JAWS at so many locally stores, including:  The Andersons, Amazon.com, Bed Bath and Beyond, as well as Kazmaiers, Churchills, and Sautters.

Head on over to their website to find out more!

Toledo Moms are lucky to have JAWS be promoting right now, because they are offering one lucky mom or dad, a beginners kit, which will include one of each cleaners, and some refill cartridges!!! This will be perfect just in time for holiday cleaning, as well as saving you some money around the holidays!

To be entered to win, just comment where is your favorite place to clean!   Good Luck!   Winner will be randomly selected on Saturday morning!

Allison from It Works! Has your answers!

After having her own body wrap done, Allison fell in love with the It Works! Products.  A close friend of her’s was selling the products and so Allison decided to sign up to be an Independent Distributor.  She has been with the It Works! family since, March of this year.

With the new year right around the corner, many of us are looking to “improve ourselves”.  Allison can help steer you in the right direction with some of the products.  Need to slim up?  She has you covered, literally!!! She can do a wrap and help slim away those holiday pounds!  Need some help with your skin?  She’s sure to find help you find what you need!  Want to workout in the comfort of your own home?  She can help, with a DVD!  She has all this and more, to help you!  Prices range from$23 on up.

While she has so many favorites the products she uses the most include: the ultimate body applicators, defining gel, vitals, greens, fat fighters and thermo fit.

While she does converse with other consultants on new ideas to do at a party, she recently described to me her “typical”  wrap party!

“At a “typical” It Works! Party guests sign-in when they arrive.  If any guests have questions about the ultimate body applicator, I      answer their questions before I begin wrapping.  After the questions have been answered, I wrap one guest at a time in a private area.  Let me remind you, that you DO NOT need to disrobe.  You share which area you would like to wrap on your body.  You can wrap nearly any part of your body.  I take measurements before the wrap is applied.  The guests leave the applicator on for at least 45 minutes.  During the 45 minutes is when I give the rest of my presentation about the other products we have to offer.  After 45 minutes, I remove the wrap and re-measure.  Each guest is given a personal card where they will record their measurements at 24 hours and 72 hours.  Your body will be detoxing for 72 hours so don’t be alarmed if you “bloat.”  Someone that “bloats” has more toxins that they need to release.  It is highly recommended that you drink at least 8-10 glasses of water per day since your body is working extra hard to release the bad toxins.  If the hostess has at least 6 guests attend the party, the hostess will get to wrap for free!”

If you would like to get wrapped, she offers a single wrap for $30!  Perfect to do for that holiday office party!

To get in contact with Allison you can email her at: Ally101479@aol.com, she is willing to answer all your questions and inquiries.  You can also head on over to her website, and check out the products and order directly from her!!

I recently sat down with Caitlin, who along with her mother, runs Plum Tree Cottage.  They make all sorts of handmade items for sale, including, Nook covers, wine bags, coasters, purses, table mats, credit card holders, and even dog beds!  They have been making crafts for a long time, and have just started selling on Etsy and on Facebook.

“Quilting is something that has been important in our entire family my whole life,” so when Caitlin was in third grade her mom taught her to quilt.”  As for starting the business, Caitlin said that “One day I was looking at all the various items my mom had stored in her basement and I told her we should start a business, I created a Facebook page and Etsy the next day!”

When asked about how they came up with the name, Plum Tree Cottage, Caitlin replied: “My mom has been quilting for as long as I can remember, we had a plum tree in front of our house when I was growing up so she started signing all of her quilts ‘Plum Tree Cottage’.”

Their items can be found on Facebook and Etsy, they can also make custom orders and if you have an idea they will be glad to make it! Prices start at $5!  Head on over to Facebook and “like” them, then when you make your order tell them “Toledo Moms sent me”, and receive 10% off your order!
