#45 Mayfair Lane

Momma Told Me: A good organizational system is essential to get ahead in life.

I was beginning to believe organizational skills were inherited. Despite numerous attempts throughout my life, implemented plans just never seemed to follow through. Yes, I keep a daily calendar, and yes I keep all of my receipts and important documents, but can I find anything when it's needed- no. Just when I thought all hope was lost I began to realize that it wasn't my organization that was lacking, but the tools which I used to do it. What system can be successful if it has to operate within boundaries and limits? I cannot change the amount of space I have but I certainly can change how that space is used!

And so the quest to restore sanity in my home began, and for months I snapped up every affordable aid within reason. Just when I'd get a system down this would break, or that wouldn't be big enough. A stainless steel fridge turns into a blank, useless canvas, and pictures tacked to cork board detach themselves only to fall behind an immovable desk, forever gone. Do you know someone like me? Are you like me? If you answered yes to either of those questions then Mayfair Lane has solutions to help organize and stylize your life, or the ones you love.

With gifting options as diverse as the styles and patterns they come in, Mayfair Lane's true diamond in the rough is their patent pending line of Hapeez products. Perfect for dorms, work, and home, the Hapeez name carries a unique, one of a kind, adhesive that grips to stainless steel, glass, and other slick surfaces! While these products are indeed very practical gifts, the recipient will delight in the charming, seemingly endless, selection of styles! With prints as diverse as a craft store's fabric selection, there's nautical, animal prints, western, abstract, classical, modern, and quirky designs for any themed room or person.

I was sent an assortment of Mayfair Lane Hapeez products for review here on Momma Told Me and was delighted to find I had been sent a notepad, magnetic frame, notebook, and clipper trio. The clipper trio came in a nautical theme with bold graphics and patterns, featuring the Hapeez revolutionary gripping material. These wide, easy to use clips truly gripped a large variety of surfaces, including infamous stainless steel. This is a lifesaver for families who prefer the style of stainless steel in the kitchen, but wish to post notes and pictures as well. The slippers held an impressive amount of bulk without loosing their grip or sliding. Hapeez clippers come in themed trios, or are sold individually in hundreds of chic styles.

I also received a Hapeez (patent pending) list pad featuring an adorable cupcake border and wide rule for shopping lists or notes. Like the clippers, this notepad sticks to a variety of slick surfaces without leaving residue. You can find many of the Mayfair Lane products in matching themes and sets for added gifting simplicity. With 25 current styles the Hapeez pads are perfect for people who like to have a piece of paper nearby, and retails at just $7, with 50 sheets. Lastly, I received a large PrettyPleez branded journal, featuring a spiral bound, hard cover notebook with 50 pages. I was a bit bummed by the thin stature of this journal, but have since reconsidered it's use as a quarterly finance log. The PrettyPleez large journal comes in 5 styles and is currently on sale for just $5.

What Daughter Says: If you're looking for a personal, affordable, and practical gift this season consider Mayfair Lane's assortment of stylish organizational tools.
