A Marvelous Mess #21 and Features

Ah, another sweet weekend of beach and family. Even on Sunday night, I'm busy!! :-) I hope you guys are having a lovely summer. 
Here are my fav's from last week:
Homemade Oreos from Captive Creativity. Um.....delicious??!!

Lily's Play Kitchen for under $100 from Utah Country. I love how it looks like a real kitchen, not covered in pinks/blues and checkered patterns like most kids kitchens. This one looks *real*. And, that is just the ticket!!!
Thrifted Fourth of July Decor from Something Created Everyday. Love the use of spools....it's vintage and crafty all at the same time. :-) Some great ideas for next years celebrations. 
And, the post that I am going to feature on my sidebar for a week:
Cream Puffs from Red Door Kitchen. These look so scrumptious!!

For those ofyou that I featured in this post, congrats and be sure to grab a button!!

Here are my favorites from last week:
Giraffe Shirt from Cookie and Claire........Um, adorable. Freezer paper and ribbons. This is such a fantastic shirt!!

Dare To Be Spare from Hello Lovely.......she totally inspires me with her decor simplicity. Everything is much less *complicated*. 

Here is a great "I never thought of that" tutorial:
How To Paint Laminate furniture from DIY Kinda Girl. I seriously had no idea it could look so *good*. Very very cool.

And, the project I am going to feature on my sidebar for a week:

Strawberry Shortcake Cookies  from Cooking with K...........I don't know about you, but around here Strawberries are just in season and taste amazing. What a sweet compliment to all the jams and pies made with this perfect fruit.

Danny vs the ShedMonster

Danny has a problem. He is a Fuzzy, Furry, Shedding hair onto everything, finding Danny hair in our foods kind-of-cat.
In enters the ShedMonster pet grooming tool:
He is no stranger to a good brushing. Unfortunately, I don't do it enough because it makes me so darn *itchy* and it takes so long!! Danny usually adores it. Any attention is good attention in his book. :-) 

The ShedMonster is purported to reduce shedding by up to 90%!! It gets right to the undercoat and gets at the hair that it so hard to reach. It it supposed to de-shed, de-mat, and de-tangle.
My verdict?? This tool is everything we have been looking for!!!!
Watch this 1.5 minute video to see how much hair I get from combing Danny (in such a short time):

Imagine what it could do it 10 minutes!! 

You can find the ShedMonster online HERE for only 19.99!! That includes a 5 piece Grooming Kit!!
I am totally impressed. Now that I've got two doggies as well, I am sure this tool will be a blessing. 
You can find ShedMonster on FACEBOOK as well!!
