Point Graphic Ink. Review & Giveaway



Im sure when I told my husband I wanted Chickens a few months ago he thought, A. I was crazy. Or B. I would get over it, but here we are 4 months into Chicken ownership and we both are super happy with out new fluffy family members. The Chickens we have are called Silkies and they each have a personality and a role in our small pack. 
They are super low maintenance, they eat anything that creeps or crawls, the kids LOVE them, they are great a de-weeding, and hopefully in the next month we will have fresh eggs. 
We have become a apart of the crazy chicken, underground movement sweeping through out the burbs. Our neighbors are aware of our new friends. We only have 4 chicks, and so far we haven't heard any Cock-A-Doodling so fingers crossed I'm hoping this will all work out. 



Now that we are proud parents I wanted a way to show off our Urban farm style, come in 

They make hand screened t-shirts and aprons with a vintage feel. I saw their Urban Chicken Tee and knew hubby would look great rocking it!

Urban Chicken Tee $22

Some of our other favorites include

Ladies Urban Backyard Chicken Shirt $22
Nautical Anchor Tattoo Shirt $22
BBQ Grilling Apron Retro Gasoline $27
Vintage Eye Chart Shirt $22





Love the vintage look and the tee also has a nice, soft, vintage, feel. 
Thank you so much to Point Graphic Ink.

You can view all their designs on their etsy.com page located HERE 
and their facebook page HERE

Would you like the chance to win a Point Graphic Tee on your own????

Father Day Gift Alert! Dollar Shave Club

Anyone need a last min Fathers Day gift idea??? How about a monthly subscription to 

How does it work???

Check out this video for more info
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUG9qYTJMsI

Dads don't usually treat themselves to the daily necessities, why not get them a Dollar shave club subscription so its just one more thing they don't have to worry about..

Every month they can receive new blades in the mail, and if your Husband is like mine, he often forgets to buy him self new blades and ends up ripping the hair out or cutting himself with a dull blade.

You can add on Shave Butter for $8, or Wipes for $4 to your monthly subscription.
(check out the video for the wipes sections)


You can also check out our previous review of Dollar Shave Club
HERE

You can find Dollar Shave Clubs Website at
https://www.dollarshaveclub.com

Or their facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/DollarShaveClub

The razor above is from the $6 a month plan, we also recieved the Dr Carver's Shave Butter, which is a nice splurge for the hubby considering he usually just uses soap.

 
$6 a month is a small price to pay for a great quality, unique, thoughtful gift. Someone needs to take care of the men in our life :)

The Old Fashioned Milk Paint Company Review




Did I mention my new love for milk paint?????

I got a new laptop about a year ago and since then it has sit on a small, crappy, table, squeezed between the printer and a baby monitor. There was hardly any room, and poor hubby thought we would hear something crash down at any point. I knew I needed something to take its place. I didnt want to go the normal desk route becuase its in our bedroom and didnt want it to feel "officey" soooooo I found this cool dresser on a re-sale site for $25 which included delivery!! I also knew I wanted to add some color. Hubby kept pushing for black, but we have a TON of black furniture. Our bedroom set is actually a dark almost black and we have accents of blue and brown so I knew I wanted blue.. 
We were able to talk The Old Fashioned Milk Paint Company into trying their paint. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the way it turned out!


Hubby sanded it down when I was at work. I knew I wanted to take 2 drawers
out and use as shelves.

We bought plywood for about $2 a sheet and cut to size. 



We used Soldier Blue and mixed with Snow White. We also used the Daddy
Van's beeswax as a protective top coat. 


The paint went on so nice! We didn't even need to put on a second coat.


The master sander/painter/waxer ;)
Taaa Daaaaa!!!



LOVE the way this turned out! We still want to get baskets for the shelves but
such a beautiful piece.
Works great as a new desk!
The product we used is called Safe Paint. A few facts include...
* Environmentally friendly
* non-toxic and biodegradable
*Non-Flamable
*Odorless when dry
*Cleans easy with soap and water
* Dry's to touch in 30 min
*easy to store, can keep mixed paint in
a airtight container and powder in a sealed bag
*Permanent colors

 Multiple sizes available, the above bags are 16oz and can cover approximately 75 square feet with one coat. 

I love that this is a piece unique and something you cant just go buy in a store. The color is beautiful and the wax really brings it out while leaving a protective coat.

Thank you again "Old Fashioned Milk Paint" for the amazing paint!!! I will never use store bought latex again!
