Learn more about products that you’re thinking of buying at Wize

by Tricia

Now that the weather is cooling many of us are likely staying inside more often. Perhaps you’re looking around the home and thinking about what you can do over the winter months to improve the look of your home? Perhaps a new television or some appliances are needed?

Well if you are planning on making any purchases over the next while you might want to visit Wize.com where you can read up on all kinds of pr0duct rev1ews.

Wize.com has pr0duct rev1ews for just about anything that you might be thinking of purchasing – from a GPS and navigation systems to the latest digital cameras, washers, dryers, televisions, computers, laptops, health and beauty, products for kids, the latest games such as playstation and Xbox and more products that I can mention in this post!

Just start at the main page and find the type of product you’re interested in learning more about and then drill down through the menus until you find exactly what you’re looking for – don’t worry it’s easy to find just about anything and you can always use the search section at the top of the page too. Once you find the pr0duct rev1ews that you’re interested in you can read reviews and check out the Wize rating number.

The Wize rating beside each product is a measure of how popular an item is and how satisfied consumers are with the product in general. The higher the rating the higher the general consumer satisfaction in the product really is – so that means it’s a product to keep your eye on and possibly purchase.

I’m not planning any major purchases in the near future – well other than possibly a new washer and dryer, but I’m going to bookmark this site and I’ll be sure to visit it the next time I’m thinking of buying something for my home. I always like to do a little research on major products before I buy them and Wize makes it easy to do just that.

Pink Balloon

A lovely pink Balloon flower.

I believe my pink balloon flowers have stopped blooming, but my blue Balloons are still pushing out a few blooms each day. Soon, now that it finally seems to be cooling down a bit, they will stop blooming all together.

I’ve found these flowers to be very easy to grow once they get started. I’ve only had one transplant fail and that was a clump of white Balloon flowers that I took from my parents home after my mother passed away. I just couldn’t get that clump to grow. I believe that Balloon flowers have long tap roots and most plants with similar root structures do not transplant well.

Hey, I had to try.

I’ve decided to use Glass tiles in my kitchen and bathroom reno projects

by Tricia

I love watching home decor and renovation shows on TLC and the HGTV channels.

I always get great ideas for my own ever ongoing home renovation projects from these shows. If one of the shows is particularly good I’ll literally take notes – writing down product names, or visiting the shows website so that I can find out what products were used and then go on to visit those sites and bookmark them for future use.

I guess I’ve been working on a virtual home renovation scrapbook? Hey the information that I gather is good for my blog posts too of course. If I can’t use an idea maybe you can?

One of the products that caught my eye a while back when I was watching shows like Trading Places and that fun Australian group renovation show The Block is glass tile. I just love the look of it.

I guess you can’t really tell from this photo how much different glass tiles are from standard ceramic tiles, but they are glossy and just have what I think is a very luxurious look to them.

Our kitchen and bathroom renovations won’t take place until sometime next year, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up using glass tiles in both rooms.

I mean, I’ve even gone so far as to look for online stores that sell tiles.

I actually found what I think might be a good site to purchase my tiles from. It’s called AnchorBayTile.com and they specialize in the sale of ceramic tile. I’m really happy I found this site and thought that if any of my readers might also be in the process of renovating your homes that you might also be interested in this site.

There’s quite a selection of tiles ranging from ceramic, glass, to metal and wood! Now, I’m not near ready for my reno project yet so I haven’t even begun to compare prices, but as far as I can see AnchorBayTile.com has great prices for quality products. I mean – you can’t find glass or metal tiles at very many retail or online shops and this store has a huge variety.

I’m definitely keeping this site in mind because I just know I’m be purchasing glass and probably ceramic tiles for my projects.
