It’s so scary, and aggravating, how easy it is for criminals to steal your financial information from you. They just have to walk by you, and they are able to steal your credit card information. You can lose everything in a matter of minutes. I am so glad that they are coming out with so many different RFID wallet options now. This particular wallet from Shyne Brands on Amazon, is a smallet style wallet. We all use one in my family. It’s such a convenient way to carry only what you need on you. This particular one is made out of a soft Lamb Leather, and was made in Mexico. Mine arrived in perfect condition. There was no odor to it upon arrival either. I have received many a leather item in the mail that has reeked of chemicals. I was quite relieved that this one arrived odor free. Even though it is the size of a smallet, it can carry 6 cards and a little bit of cash. There are three card slots on each side, and a center opening. The center opening is not wide enough to put more cards into it. It is just a smidge too small to do that. You can definitely fold up some cash though, and store it in there. Lol, I do not have even close to 6 credit cards, but every store seems to have an awards card, so you can fill the extra slots up with those. I do have to say, that the more cards you put into the wallet, the tighter the slots are. They will loosen with use though, since this wallet was made out of a soft leather. It is fully lined, and does offer the all-important and necessary, RFID protection. The stitching on my smallet was also done well. Overall, I am really happy with it. It fits comfortably in a front pocket as well as a back pocket. I recommend the front pocket for further protection. It is also small enough to throw in my epi-pen bag, when that is all I want to carry into a store. Overall this is a well-made, and convenient carry wallet. It carries only what you need, while providing some security from today’s thieves.

I received this for free, in exchange for an unbiased and honest review. – Shyne Brands’ World-famous 100% genuine leather handcrafted slim wallet from León, Mexico.

Handmade LED mason jar candle light. – HAIMI’s Led Candle Light. https://cspierdowis.com/handmade-led-mason-jar-candle-light/ https://cspierdowis.com/handmade-led-mason-jar-candle-light/#respond Wed, 18 May 2016 04:03:39 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=3990

I love LEDs, and I love candles. This particular one is so cute too. If you are a mason jar nut, then you will really love it too. It’s a mini mason jar with screw on lid and LED tea light inside of it. So, whenever the LED candle runs out of life, you can easily replace it, and keep on rolling with this one. The jar measures out at 3 ½” tall and 2 ½” wide. It was done in the country/shabby chic styling. It has grape vines wrapped around it, and a sprig place inside with the tea light too. The one inside the jar can be a little annoying, lol. You need to pull it all the way out to remove the candle, to turn it on. I keep thinking I’m going to break it doing that, but so far so good. LEDs are so great. They are durable, eco-friendly, and last such a long time. The batteries will give out before the LED in the tea light. The installed batteries have a 30-hour lifespan, and can be replaced. It uses 3 little button batteries.

Each candle is handmade, and so may look a little different from the picture. You can use these anywhere, and around anyone. The give off no heat, or scent; just lovely light. You can place this on your desk at work, in the bathroom, and bedside. It is so portable. You can travel with it, and use it in your hotel room. You can use it camping too. This is nice to use out on your porch as well. If you get a few, you can safely place them throughout your home during a blackout. I think these would be so great on a mantle during the holidays with garland wrapped around them. Since they don’t use real fire, or put off heat, they are so safe to use. If you have people with bad allergies or asthma in the home, these are the healthier way to have soft, relaxing candle light in the home. You can even think receptions, banquets and weddings with these. You can’t use real fire at most event halls nowadays, due to insurance and fire hazard issues. With these, you’ll be good to go. I am really enjoying my candle from Haimi.

Incredible craftsmanship in this Alpaca Silver “Fruit of the Spirit” Religious Cuff Bracelet (Handmade). https://cspierdowis.com/incredible-craftsmanship-in-this-alpaca-silver-fruit-of-the-spirit-religious-cuff-bracelet-handmade/ https://cspierdowis.com/incredible-craftsmanship-in-this-alpaca-silver-fruit-of-the-spirit-religious-cuff-bracelet-handmade/#respond Wed, 30 Mar 2016 05:34:45 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=3260

I lived in Mexico for 5 years when I was little. I love their jewelry till this day. This handmade bracelet is gorgeous. It was made out of Alpaca silver, which is a big stale for that Country, in regards to their jewelry making. Alpaca Silver has been around since 1823 when a contest began to find a great alternative for Sterling Silver. A German Manufacturer named Berndorf, created and named Alpaca Silver. It is actually a combination of metals normally to include a combination of Copper, Nickel, Cadmium, Zinc and Tin. It is not stated which metals were used in this bracelet.

The finish on this bracelet was done is a high polished finish. It is so pretty. My skin has suffered no irritation whatsoever with it. It is so comfortable to wear. It arrives as an open cuff design. The interior dimension it comes with is 2 ½”. It can be stretched a little to slide onto your wrist if you need it. This is not a thin and flimsy bracelet in the least. It is well made, sturdy, and quite beautiful. I love, love, love the sentiment behind this bracelet. It is religious in nature, and on each end depicts a “Jesus” fish symbol. The entire bracelet is engraved in the “fruit of the spirit” from Galatians. This bracelet is 6.5” long, and is ¾’s of an inch wide. It’s such a positive bracelet. I can’t imagine anyone not wanting to wear it. The words express nothing but positive statements: Love, Goodness, Kindness, Joy, Gentleness, Peace, Self-Control, Humility, Patience. These are words everyone should strive to live up to daily.
