#1 – Moving Sand Art Frame
Add some ‘zen’ to your life with this moving sand art frame – it’s mesmerizing!
When we first built our house, we had a moving sand art frame in our mudroom bathroom. Our kids enjoyed watching the sand fall and make sandscapes while they washed their hands. It was a great ‘timer’ to teach them to wash well after coming inside from playing in the yard, plus it was a unique decor piece in our stone and sand-themed decor. We used that sand art frame for many years before the water in it eventually dried up. I miss that frame, and found this one while searching for a replacement. It looks very cool in the mudroom bathroom, and while it isn’t used as a ‘timer’ now, it’s still fun to watch the sand create a picture while you’re washing your hands.
You could use this sand art frame on your desk during conference calls to help you pass the time. Use it on a bedside table as a way to relax before going to sleep. And of course, you could use it as a ‘timer’ with your kids like we did. However you use it or display it, it’s sure to add interest to your home.
#2 – Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History Candle
This handmade candle is sure to make you smile. And relax.
This candle is handmade by a small business owner on Etsy. You can choose the scent you’d like to make the candle more personal (the Green Tea and Lemongrass is awesome!). You can also choose the size candle. Each candle burns for a long time and is all natural. What a great way to relax! Makes a fun gift for the women in your life, too.
#3 – Tabletop Fountain Bubbler
This tabletop fountain adds interest to any space!
Place the fountain on a dining room table as a unique centerpiece and enjoy the soft sound of water while eating dinner. Use the fountain on a coffee table in the living room as an interesting decor piece. You could even place the fountain on a nightstand next to your bed to help you fall asleep to the calming sound of water. Place this fountain among your houseplants for a unique display, and it will also help raise the humidity a little near your plants (they’ll like that).
This tabletop fountain would also look spectacular on a deck, porch, or patio in the warm months of the year – adding interest to your space. So many areas to use this fountain in!
To customize this fountain to your decor, you could use marbles, sea glass, or fire glass in the outer ring instead of the included polished rocks. Be creative.

You can find product links to all three things on Pinterest at Things I Like and you can find some of these things in my Amazon Marketplace Storefront.
NOTE: Since my job is an online store and mentoring ecommerce business owners, I spend a LOT of time online each day. While most of that time is spent working, I do occasionally stumble across websites, articles, and cool things that I really like. I save these things to a Pinterest board, so someday when I have some free time, I can go back to that board and enjoy the things I found. I enjoy sharing these fun finds with you, and hope you find them interesting, too!
