Easy, Inexpensive DIY Frosted Glass Windows


Easy, Inexpensive DIY Frosted Glass Windows
Here's a quick and easy DIY fix for your entry door sidelights or any windows that are difficult to cover with window treatments.

My windows had plain white pull-down shades that were getting tattered. I bought some frosted glass spray paint for under $5 and painted the outside of the windows.

I cleaned the windows first and thoroughly dried them. I didn't tape anything off or cover anything since the window frames on the outside are white, and any overspray didn't show. I used the entire can of paint, because at the point I felt I had pretty good coverage, there was just a little paint left.

In case you're wondering, I did this a couple of years ago, and it has held up extremely well. There is no porch or any kind of covering over this door, and this area's exposed to all kinds of weather. I haven't touched it up at all, but it would be easy to do if needed.

 When I first painted the sidelights, I checked that night to see if you would be able to see through the windows when the lights are on inside. You can't really make out anything except the fact that there is a light on. I probably would not use this alone on a bathroom window with no other window covering, however.

A few tips if you decide to paint your windows: I recommend standing back from your work often to see if there are places where more coverage is needed. Also, if you haven't spray-painted before, read the instructions on the can. You need to keep the can a proper distance from what you're painting and keep it moving to avoid drips and running paint.

Ghirardelli Chocolate Review -- Check Out New Flavors! Plus a Discount


Everyone who knows me can tell you that I LOVE chocolate, so when Ghirardelli asked if I'd like to receive some samples to review, of course I said YES!

Ghirardelli Chocolate Review -- Check Out New Flavors! Plus a Discount
Here's the cute box of chocolates I received with all kinds of delicious Ghirardelli squares to try--from the familiar milk and dark chocolates, to other flavors I hadn't seen before all wrapped up and tied with colorful ribbon. I can't show you the chocolates--yes, they're gone, but I promise I did share some of them.

One of my favorites was the dark chocolate with sea salt and roasted almonds. I know sea salt sound might sound strange with dark chocolate, but it was just a touch, and it was delicious! This one might have been my favorite.

Save 10% on Ghirardelli Chocolate Gifts   I also love chocolate and raspberry together, and there was a chocolate flavor with raspberry filling. That one was wonderful. If you like mint, like I do, you'll like Ghirardelli's mint and chocolate flavor too.

Everyone in my house liked the carmel-filled chocolates and the super-creamy Ghirardelli milk chocolates, so those went quickly.

I definitely will buy some of the new flavors now that I've gotten to try them.

Right now, everyone can take an extra 10% off at Ghirardelli online. (Prices are discounted on the site. No coupon code is needed.) Check out some of the new flavors, send some gourmet chocolate gifts (you can even shop by occasion), find wedding and party favors, and more!

This Giveaway Has Ended -- Shansen Jewelry Review, Giveaway, & Exclusive Discount -- Win a Tiger Eye Triple Wrap Bracelet

Shansen Jewelry Review, Giveaway, & Exclusive Discount -- Win a Tiger Eye Triple Wrap BraceletWe all love jewelry, and I want to tell you about  a new jewelry line that is meaningful to me for several reasons. You'll also have the chance to win a piece for yourself, and get an exclusive discount.

I'm talking about Shansen Jewelry founded by cousins Shannon Elizabeth and Tamsen Fadal. You know Shannon from her major box office films and television roles, and Tamsen is an author and tv personality.

I hope you'll go to the Shansen Jewelry site, check out some of the pieces, and learn more for yourself. Here's what's important to me about this jewelry:

    Shansen Jewelry Review, Giveaway, & Exclusive Discount -- Win a Tiger Eye Triple Wrap Bracelet
  • Shansen Jewelry combines semi-precious gemstones and specially-selected messages, and each person who possesses a piece of the jewelry is encouraged to find what inspires and supports them.
  • Every piece of jewelry is made with care and thought to how the gems, the design, and the meaning of the gems work together.
  • Despite being made with semi-precious gemstones and the amount of detail in these pieces, they are reasonably-priced. No matter what your budget, you'll find something you can afford.
  • The jewelry is made with faux leather, staying true to Shansen's vegan roots.
  • Shansen Jewelry donates a portion of all proceeds to charity. Their vow is that a percentage of every piece sold will always be paid forward to “do good” and help create positive change. (One of Shansen's favorite charities is Last Chance for Animals, a national animal rights organization.)
  • And, of course, the bracelets and necklaces are all beautiful!

Shansen Jewelry Review, Giveaway, & Exclusive Discount -- Win a Tiger Eye Triple Wrap BraceletShansen Jewelry is new, but is already creating a buzz, with celebrities, including Wendy Williams, Geena Davis, Andy Cohen, Mario Lopez,  J. Alexander, Nelsan Ellis, Derek Hough, Ali Landry and AnnaSophia Robb wearing pieces from the line.

I'm thrilled to have been able to review the Tiger Eye Triple Wrap bracelet (at left). According to the Shansen Jewelry site, this is a great stone for meditation and looking within. As you can see, the cord is a rich, chocolate texture to emphasize the brilliance and luminosity of each Tiger Eye. The button is an octagon shape, chosen because eight is a powerful money number, which can only help to bring prosperity to the wearer.

I'm so happy with this piece because not only do I simply love the look, but from a practical standpoint, it's obviously well-made, the earthy colors match most of my wardrobe, and it will be wearable year-round. Thinking not so practically, it's a substantial piece and the number of stones really catch your attention. This bracelet is casual, comfortable, and beautifully designed. I definitely look forward to wearing it with everything this summer!

If you like the Tiger Eye Triple Wrap bracelet, you'll be happy to know this is the piece you can win! Giveaway details are below.

Shannon and Tamsen at Shansen Jewelry have also generously offered MomsWhoSave readers an exclusive discount on the jewelry. Save 10% off all orders when you use promo code MomsWhoSave at checkout at Shansen Jewelry.

This Giveaway Has Ended -- Win an Aluminum Photo Print from Ritzpix (a $70 Value)

I'm happy to introduce you to another great product for your home and give you a chance to win one for yourself!

I'm talking about aluminum photo prints from Ritzpix. This is a new product and is one that I hadn't heard of. I uploaded a photo to the Ritzpix site, and they put it onto a aluminum sheet with floating wall mounts (see photo). The photo has no frame, and the edges are rounded (so there are no sharp edges) The colors are far more vibrant than anything you're used to seeing. It's a little hard to describe, but I think you'll love it as much as I do!

Check out the photo I ordered on the left. It's from one of our weekends at the beach. It was just a snapshot looking out of our hotel balcony, but it turned out great! (Actually this photo doesn't do it justice, since it's a photo of a photo!)

I didn't have any recent pictures of the kids I wanted to use, and I thought this shot looked just like a poster! I had no idea what I'd think of this new product, but I am really pleased with it.

This is a 24" x 16" size, and you can win the same size aluminum print from Ritzpix. This is a $69.99 value!

By the way, Ritzpix always has photo deals going on on their site. Right now, the deals include 6¢ photo prints.

You can enter the giveaway below using the Rafflecopter widget, which makes everything super quick and easy! When a comment is required for an entry, be sure to leave one, or your entry won't count. Good luck!
