BuildASign.com business cards review

I just received 250 business cards as a review promotion from BuildASign.com.

I created a personalized design using the easy to understand tools they provide. I didn't have to download anything. It took less than 10 minutes to create the cards for my husbands Lego business. They have designs you can use as well with imagery and preset boxes where you add your own texts. The cards are on durable card stock. They look so professional. My husband is thrilled.
As a blogger looking to expand my audience and my husband who is looking to take his Lego selling from a hobby to an actual home based business, business cards are a welcome way of advertising. Especially since they are far more portable and less pricey than other ways. BuildASign.com has other advertising options as well such as banners, various magnets, signs, bumper stickers, license plates, decals, stakes and frames, and more! Some of these are even shipped free. I did the math for the business cards. 250 cards for $13.99 = .05 each! Not bad when you consider the return you'd get for your business being promoted.
I great recommend you checking them out. I even have a nifty button on the side of my blog so if you want to get to them quick and don't want to search for this post, just check the right side there! Let me know what you think about them. I love hearing from my readers.

Fellowes products review via Shoplet.com

Shoplet.com has once again sent products to review. These are office supplies by Fellowes, designed to add comfort and ease to your office experience.

One of the products I received was the Laptop Riser. As you may know, typing daily is something most people do as technology has taken over most homes. However, typing with your wrist laying flat has given way to concerns of developing carpal tunnel. One suggestion is to raise the wrist at an angle. This lift helps you do so comfortably by tilting the laptop forward.

The angle is a little steep for me. I do like that it is a light weight plastic. It has grips in the front that keep the laptop from sliding off the lift. Make sure if you do use it that you hold the laptop with one hand as you lift it open with the other. I find one-handed use doesn't work well as it pulls the laptop off the stand (as a mom, I had to try, you know).

I like that it keeps the laptop cool by keeping it up. The fan won't be blocked by anything and can circulate the air as needed. It also has grips on the bottom to keep it from sliding around.

The other product I received was the Document lift with dry erase surface. This is a multi-function office item that I absolutely LOVE!

First, it can be used as a dry erase board. It's portable and strong, but still light.

It also wipes off easy without leaving a stained appearance behind.

Add the clip to the top, and it instantly transforms into a clipboard.

Add the stand at the bottom and you have a document holder that allows you to work/type while checking your document at the perfect level. All hands-free! It comes with the three pieces that are easily assembled as well as disassembled.

The stand is heavy enough to keep it stable. It has grips on the bottom to keep it from sliding around. This is great for in the office. As I type, I can have my page clipped and ready for me to glance at as needed.

I really love that I can take it apart and on the go easily. It has three uses that I need often. I use the dry erase board for leaving messages and for teaching my boys at home. My husband uses the document stand for pulling orders or adding to his inventory without having to look down at the paper all the time. And I can run through my lists while on the go with the clipboard function.

I hope you find this useful! Be sure and check out the other items provided by Fellowes that are available at Shoplet.com. 

Easy Canvas Prints review and giveaway!

I was recently offered the chance to review some canvas prints from Easy Canvas Prints. I ordered three: 2 8x10" and 1 16x20" canvases.

Creating and preparing them for my order was so simple. There are multiple options to choose from. Uploading my photos was quick and didn't require downloading anything.
Shipping was done through UPS Ground so I could check my UPS account and see when and where they were. They came pretty quickly too.

 I did upload a photo for the 16x20" canvas that wasn't optimal for the size. The Art Team emailed me to let me know and give me the option to either approve of it anyway, or to substitute another picture that would be better.

 They were absolutely beautiful! Each canvas is wrapped around a sturdy wooden frame. They add a simple elegance around our home. There is also no worry of breaking glass should my children knock them off the wall (which we have had before). No worries of moisture seeking between glass and picture as I've also had with a very special picture of mine.

There are quite a few specials going on as well, so definitely check in on them. As an extra bonus, they have agreed to host a giveaway just for you guys! So get your entries in and good luck. It will run from August 15-29th and only open to those in North America.

***I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE GIVEAWAY. That is completely being handled by Easy Print Canvas. THEY will be the ones collecting your information.***
