Magic Kingdom's Harmony Barber Shop

Did you know that you could get your hair cut at Disney World's Magic Kingdom? We didn't until recently and since our little girl Delaney was due to get her first hair cut we were excited to take her there. Harmony Barber Shop has a great deals including one for little ones getting their first hair cut!

The barber shop is located on Main Street in between the Emporium and the house where the carriage horse is kept. If you tend to go straight for the castle you may miss it!

Although Harmony does recommend calling and making an appointment, we took a chance and went on a Saturday afternoon. If you are visiting on vacation, you will definitely want to make an appointment (407-WDW-PLAY). We went straight to the shop once arriving in the park to see if walk ins were available. We only had to wait about 15 minutes!

Delaney did a great job sitting for her cut, and her stylist Orlando was wonderful. The atmosphere of the shop is very old fashioned and even features a pot bellied stove. They do great things for the kid's first cut including commemorative ears, a certificate and a keepsake pouch with some of their hair and pixie dust!

She doesn't look too happy here, but Delaney had a great experience at Harmony Barber Shop and we enjoyed sharing this with her.

The certificate is great for framing, and I am sure we will cherish it for years to come!

Surpahs Digital Kitchen Scale Review

I have been looking for a kitchen scale for my family for some time since we are moving towards eating healthier. I wanted something functional and affordable. When approached by Surpahs to try one of their kitchen scales I jumped at the chance!

I chose model STT-1040 for review. I chose this scale not only for its ability to weigh up to 11 lbs/ 5g accurately but also for its slim and stylish design. The ability to weigh up to 11 lbs is a wonderful feature as most kitchen scales only weigh up to 4 lbs. The design is very attractive with a clear surface, 2 touch buttons and the display screen. I love the sleek design and that it is very easy to wipe clean. Check this scale out on their website here or go directly to Amazon to purchase.

I initially weighed some fruit when trying it out and I was excited with the precision of the scale! Moving towards a healthier diet which includes a diabetic friendly menu, it is important to measure your food intake. Using this scale will take the mystery out of trying to guess if the foods can fit into our meals!

Another function that I really liked was the Tare feature. For measuring ingredients you can use this to first weigh your bowl, cup, etc. and then zero out the weight. As an example I weighed a baby bottle and then zeroed out the scale. I filled the bottle up with water and weighed again. As you can see, it accurately measured the water in the bottle. What a great feature! No more using multiple measuring cups as you can just add your ingredients to the bowl on the scale!

Surpahs has 8 other kitchen scales and I am sure one would meet your needs. In the market for a body scale? They have those too! Their website also features some wonderful bamboo kitchen products to fancy up the look of your kitchen.

Yellowbird Consignment Company - "Shop Cheep!"

When I moved to Florida I brought with me all the clothes we owned. This included all kinds of winter clothes, clothes the kids were outgrowing and even maternity clothes. I didn’t want to just toss these clothes as some were in perfect condition.

Driving through our neighborhood one day I noticed a cute building with signage stating it was Yellowbird Consignment Company . As soon as I got home I called and found out that they would take the kid’s and women’s clothes as well as shoes and also the maternity clothes!

Upon entering Yellowbird you find they are so much more than just a consignment shop!

They have clothes and shoes from casual to formal. Purses, bags and scarves as well! In the kids section they have clothing, shoes and toys. They also have lots of new jewelry, soaps, artwork, and much more from artists who consign their work there as well.

The store was opened in May 2012 and is owned by Cheri Kaczmarek. Cheri, as well as Manager Katy Ferguson make every customer feel at home. They are friendly and always willing to help you out. From my very first visit these two have made me feel like a friend. They offer topnotch assistance and will help you with your shopping. I have gone to the store a few times not really looking for anything in particular, but they have aided me in finding something great while there.

Their consignment contract and guidelines are very easy to follow. You can find all the information you need about consigning here.  

What is also great about Yellowbird is that some of their items can be found in an online shop! Although not as extensive as the in shop experience, you can find many great items there!

Also be sure to check out their Facebook Page for more information and pictures!
