GENERAL GIFTS
SPARK ALERT
When one finds themselves feeling secure, they are happier, more relaxed and can focus more easily on essential tasks. It is crucial to everyone’s wellbeing to not live in fear day in and day out. Who better to manufacture security systems than a man who spent his days putting his own life on the line for our personal safety? Tony Riggs is the Chief Operating Officer for Spark Alert, a Marine Corps and longtime technology veteran who yearns to create efficient and practical products for all civilians.
​
There are a bunch of benefits that come along with installation of such a system. It is wireless and only requires a wi-fi connection to work. No limits as to location, as systems hold battery powered sensors. Speaking to the technology, the specs for video are 1080HP, color night vision and motion sensor alerts are all part of the package. The unit is then run via the app that you can find on either your tablet or smart phone. If customers hold smaller security needs, there are remote control and entry sensors for sale.
As a special gift to customers for Christmas, there are discounts available for the security kits. They are as follows: $59 for the Starter Spark Security Kit; Spark Plus is $79, and the Spark Premium is $99. If 24/7 monitoring is on your “must have” list, then this may be purchased for an additional $19.99 per month.

GODDESS GARDEN
Goddess Garden CEO Nova Covington and Paul Halter, both “early environmentalists” were inspired to develop safe skincare solutions after their baby daughter was allergic to the chemicals found in traditional bath and cosmetic products. In building the company, they were motivated by two guiding principles: helping the planet and helping people safely enjoy the sun. Today Goddess Garden provides highly effective reef-safe products that utilize sustainably sourced materials from the earth, allowing families to enjoy, protect and appreciate the great outdoors.
All of the Goddess Garden products are reef safe, organic and vegan, along with cruelty free. In time for the holiday season, Goddess Garden created an Aromatherapy Candle line. The three new scents are Wild Rose, French Lavender and Yuzu Citrus, and each contains 100% essential oils.

CTOAN CANDLES
If you ask most people why they purchase candles, their response would likely be: they enhance the atmosphere, stress relief/aromatherapy, or other spiritual reason. Besides all of the aforementioned, Milwaukee native Jodyann Morgan buys and builds candles that make a statement. Her kitchen experimentations are little pieces of artwork which showcase the beauty of all human forms/sizes. It was in November of 2021 in which she became incorporated, and thus, CTOAN Company was born.
All body sculptures are gender free, hand poured and soy based. Color choices include light/dark brown, white, red and gold. Many use these 3D candles as actual home décor, but they can be burned – resulting in a light scent ruminating through your home. If you seek something a bit different, Jodyann also sells tea lights, wax melts and jarred candles.
​
Customers can expect to spend $25.00 - $33.00 on her classy creations. For the holiday season, there will be a Season of Giving Collection released, consisting of sparkly metallic candles available in seven body configurations. When a collection is sold, $2.00 is donated to the Hetrick-Martin Institute, which Jodyann attended as a teenager. However, her charity work is not limited to just the holiday. As of 2022, CTOAN has donated over $1,881 to nonprofits and mutual aid funds. To learn more, go to: https://ctoanco.com/
R.D.C. SHOE COMPANY
Having a well-made shoe provides health benefits, i.e. reduction of foot pain, endurance enhancement, and improvement of overall posture. Possessing a shoe with style allows one to stand out and be seen. Darren Davis brings both to his customers via his company, R.D.C. Shoe Company.
​
Darren was not always destined to be a business owner. He enlisted in the US Marine Corps and served until 1990, when he medically retired due to medical issues. Davis would go on to work a professional tennis futures tour, become a police officer, and find his bride. Shortly after 9/11 happened, it would be Darren’s wife that took pen to paper – and boom, his shoe was born. Destiny would one day find him in a room with Medal of Honor Recipient Woody Williams, and also the daughter of another hero. This chance meeting would then motivate him to spend his life honoring heroes and their valor. The “Glory Shoe” was launched in March of 2022, aka Medal of Honor Week – and the business is already starting to boom.
​
For the holiday season, R.D.C. is offering its Glory Shoe for the sale price of $100.00. If you are one of the first 1,000 to order, a special shoe coin, collectable box and a Medal of Honor Recipient card is shipped along with your shoe. Further, Darren does sell Medal of Honor cards, along with a Glory and Woody Williams coin. Donations from sales are provided to both the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and the Woody Williams Foundation.

ULTIMATE MIX TAPE MUSIC QUIZ BOOK
One of the most prominent times for pop culture was during the 80’s. This decade brought to us some bitching fashion and fun music. Boutique book publisher Tamara Dever, a lover of all things 80’s, took her adoration for trivia to the next level with her books, Ultimate Mix Tape: Music Quote Book.
​
Dever has pieced together two versions, and each one is a menagerie of musical questions that span the 70’s - 90’s. Between both, you are provided over 2,200 asks and up to twenty chapters of challenges. These are perfect for any party or even a high school reunion. All of this put together by a writer whose roots stem from my own hometown of Wisconsin. Pretty groovy!
​
In addition to her composition in print, Tamara also sells twenty-one types of tee shirts and sweatshirts that pay tribute to this bygone time period. While visiting her website, you will also find resources for retro podcasts and radio stations from the 80’s. Take a trip back in time with her!
​
The quiz books are priced at $14.87, and are best bought via the publisher at: Unique books for publishers and music lovers alike — Outstanding Book Publishing Assistance (tlcbookdesign.com)
CIN'S HEARTWARMERS
To those that know me personally, they are quite familiar with my "heart warmers". For many years now, I have been posting up these random thoughts that are designed to make others remember they are important and special. I know all too well what it is like to feel insignificant, and do not want others to feel that way. One day, the love of my life suggested I put these on a shirt and try to sell them. Unfortunately, my other career endeavors kept me from pursuing this full time. Hence, I am just trying to sell off the remainder of the shirts I printed. My remaining inventory is listed below, and shirts are offered only in pink and white. Child’s shirts are $10, and adults are $15. Visit this link to purchase: MGFrocksClothing1 - Etsy
