The Clever Home Store

When your home becomes a work of art that’s just plain clever, which is why Evatopia is loving The Clever Home Store.

The Clever Home Store is a place for smart products designed for smart people. The combined efforts of husband and wife Isaac & Kristen (The Krisaac), all of the items you’ll find at Clever Home were designed and hand-crafted by the duo, or discovered during The Krisaac’s regular travels.

“We have a passion for good design, whimsy and functionality, and we’ve always wanted to share our passion with the world,” says the team.

Located in south Texas, team Krisaac has been curating, building and designing furniture, lighting and home accessories for over five years.

Some of our favorite pieces include the Boho Bracelet Holder: Vintage Brass Birds.

This is a bracelet holder with a twist. Repurposed vintage brass partridge birds are perfect for displaying jewelry atop dressers and vanities. Also great for tablescapes and home decor.

We also love their Wanderlust Postcard Collection. The ten original photos taken during a road trip to Palm Springs, California encapsulate the moments, landscape and various points of interest characterizing the West Coast. Cards can be mailed or used as wall art.

You can check out The Clever Home Store on Etsy.

Sammi Robin Today on Blog Talk Radio

By Margery Walshaw

I’m so pleased to have the opportunity to interview author Sammi Robin today at 3:30 PST on Blog Talk Radio.

Sammi’s debut novel, “So Many Frogs, Not Enough Prozac,” chronicles her dating exploits and realization that many men are frogs dressed in prince’s clothing.

Read on for details…

We’ve all grown up with the magical tales of Cinderella and Snow White. They’ve shaped our ideals, but with the exception of Kate Middleton, most of us must face the fact that princes only reside in the enchanted world of make-believe, and kissing frogs is an all too often occurrence.

“So Many Frogs…Not Enough Prozac” is for every girl who has fallen for a frog. Author Sammi Robin has been involved with actors, reality stars, identical twins and every guy in between. She’s bawled her eyes out in the self-help aisle of Barnes & Noble while searching for a book to ease her broken heart. While looking for a book that contained real stories of heartbreak, she came up empty-handed. At the urging of friends, who also needed to know they weren’t alone in their bad dating decisions, she decided to write that book.

Ever hear of creating a fake Facebook boyfriend just to make your guy jealous? Sammi’s done that and more. Within these pages, she’ll reveal her most embarrassing dating moments, biggest heartbreaks, cringe-worthy mistakes, and fortunately, the lessons learned.

Amazon | Barnes and Noble

Sammi is also a blogger writing about dating in Hollywood for “The Blow Off” blog as well as others. Her article, “No Contact Rule,” has had over 250,000 views and she is known as a girl about town having dated many an actor and model as well as having many friends who frequent the “movers and shakers” inner circles.

Read an excerpt now…

Breathing in the fresh air from the water, a light mist is rising from the surface allowing the air to cool even more as the sun sets further. My cloak warms me, although I have pulled the hood down to my shoulders so I can take in more of the scene. I sit cross-legged with the cloak lying over and around me where only a sliver of my front is visible, my long red hair hanging almost touching the rock beneath me. I close my eyes and begin to meditate, chant, and rejuvenate my own spirit. There is a man off to the side watching me. I look at him and he smiles at me.

           “Who are you?”

           “I am your Grandfather. I am here to journey with you through our history and teach you many great things.”

           “What is your name, Grandfather? Where are we?”

           “Charles. This is the world I knew many, many years ago. This is the place you live now. Virginia was chosen for its natural beauty and power.”

           “Why did I talk about spirits needing me? What is this dream?”
