In My Own Words:
Originally from Ireland, now living in the UK. I would read all day every day if I could, but having a young family tends to impose strict limits on the amount of time I get to myself. Still I grab opportunities when they present themselves!

Playdoh Sweet Shoppe Perfect Twist Ice Cream by Playdoh Sweet Shoppe

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Programme (What's this?)
I don't know a child who doesn't love playing with Playdoh. On the other hand, I don't know an adult who relishes cleaning up afterwards! But childhood is all too short so I embrace the mess and enjoy making playdoh creations with my children.

It comes with the classic playdoh but also 3 pots of the new, smoother Playdoh plus compound which you use to make embellishments like sprinkles and toppings.

The only problem was trying to get them to let me make my own ice-creams!

I enjoy having newly painted walls but up to now have hated the process of actually painting them. I hate the mess with a passion - cleaning the rollers and brushes and the inevitable spillage on the bit of flooring I haven't properly covered up.

This has all changed since we got the WallPerfect Paint Spraying System. It's been a revelation to me and I don't know why we've been struggling with brushes and rollers for so long. Once you get the knack of using it (which doesn't take long at all) this speeds through the job and the finish is smooth and professional. We have perfect walls now - no little drips or areas that are not as well covered as others.
