Cell Phone Holders

Posted by Trendy Chick on February 6th, 2010

A very simple gadget but works remarkably well for someone who doesn’t want  their cellular phones to be at the end of a table or somewhere - where someone can accidentally knock it down while getting charged.  Plus this is perfect way for the Mrs Meticulous who likes everything to be in order.  Unfortunately, I [...]

Cuckoo Clock For Children

Posted by Trendy Chick on February 5th, 2010

I love Cuckoo clocks but I didn’t know that my kids would too, well not until they saw one like the above.  It’s colorful and not as frightening as the old-fashioned cuckoo clock, in fact quite quirky if you asked me.  My best buddy who is an expect on top rated diet pills was actually [...]

Rolling Trash Bins

Posted by Trendy Chick on January 14th, 2010

Looking for the best colon cleanser but ended up buying a rolling trash bin for $69.00.  How can one resist a rolling trash bin you tell me? You can roll it wherever you want - whether you are cooking in the kitchen or partying with paper plates and cups - or holding a kid’s birthday [...]
