Flashlights and things for our home

Add as a preferred source on Google

Every home needs things like flashlights in order to make it just right. Flashlights are something we may not think about until the lights go out. Having our home well stocked can make it where we are not searching about blindly in the dark. There are other essential things we probably don’t think about needing, but are just as essential all the same. Making sure our home has all these things can go a long way in creating peace and quiet.

There are several different types of things we need but don’t always think about.

This GearLight M3 mini LED flashlight is small, but offers large illumination. Just four inches long and about an inch in diameter, this will easily fit into pocket, purse, or backpack with room to spare. Even though it is small the beam is wide and powerful enough to light up the backyard. It uses two AA batteries so it is easy to supply.
We sleep on top of it every night, but we probably never think about protecting our mattress. This memory foam mattress protector is made from bamboo derived viscose rayon. It is waterproof to protect against all fluids. The surface is terry cotton, giving it a soft and comfortable feel. This is made from a blend of bamboo fabric, making it hypoallergenic and very breathable. It is designed to fit up to 14 inch deep mattresses. We can rest assured since this is phthalate, PVC, and vinyl free.
As odd as it might sound, there are many of us who have the ashes of our departed loved ones in our home. Sometimes these arrive already installed in an urn, but in many cases, they arrive and remain in a nondescript box. Having a fitting tribute to our loved one can help them remain a part of our lives. We can honor them with a handcrafted vessel that helps us remember them. These urns are gracefully shaped and handcrafted artfully to make a fitting tribute.
It only happens once a year, and probably once a year we run into the issues of hanging stockings on the mantle. We may resort to drilling in hooks, but for those who do not to damage the surface and also for those mantles that cannot be modified. These right-sized mantle hooks have soft grippers so as not to scratch surfaces. They grip more firmly the heavier the stocking weight increases, so no more spills. Will hold up to 10 pounds, so we can really load up the goodies.
Making holidays festive for kids is something most of us yearn to do. What a great way to delight the little ones with this light-up Santa hat. These hats have the traditional red cone with a white brim and a white ball on the end. They have 20 LED lights inside that will light up and dance from color to color. We turn them on and off with a switch. These are made to fit comfortably without scratchy material. They come in adult and children sizes so everyone can be part of the fun. Uses 2 AAA batteries.

The list may have surprised us with what was included, but we can all agree that these things are great choices for making sure our home has everything it needs for us. These items make great gifts as well.
