Carpet One Floor & Home's is continuing to support breast cancer research with the addition of four edgy, thought-provoking designs joining the 18 welcome mats in their 2017 "Welcome a Cure Pink Ribbon" Mat Collection.

Note: I received product sample for review purpose. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.

For each $24.99 ($34.99CDN) 2'x3' US-made, rubber-backed mat sold, 25 percent of the proceeds goes directly to help the five-star rated Breast Cancer Research Fund.


Each Mat has a unique design. As you can see the designers behind the latest four chose their mats pattern for special reasons. How amazing is that.


As a thank you for sharing the information about their "Welcome a Cure Pink Ribbon" Mat Collection, I received one of Carpet One mats. I thought this was a great way to spread awareness about this initiative and keep my floors clean when guests come over.


I chose the "Pets Welcome" mat because of the stylish pattern and the cute paws. It looked great in my hallway. It mat is really great quality with a textured back, so it stays put. No slipping.

It also has a nice large area to fit a good amount of shoes. Gotta keep your floors clean!


I think any of the Carpet One "Welcome a Cure Pink Ribbon" Mats would look great in any home. Buying one of these mats is more then just about decorating your home. Each time you see the mat, you'll know you helped to fund research that can save someone's life.

Actor/Author Alan Cumming and artist Grant Shaffer were part of a special reading for their book "The Adventures of Honey & Leon" during an event hosted by TheMoms and Stop & Shop at AppleSeeds.

Note: I was invited as media to the event. Views expressed are always 100% my own.

Before reading the book, Alan shared a bit about the idea behind the story and who Honey & Leon really are. Their dogs!

Watch the below video to hear more.



Alan and Grant wrote this story as a tribute to their own dogs, who have passed away, based on their conversations about what Honey and Leon did while they traveled.


After the reading Alan and Grant did a quick Q&A and spoke about the importance of pet adoption from shelters and how one of their dogs was a shelter rescue pet. And when you read the book, you can see the dogs were very loved and loved their masters also.

Matter of fact Honey & Leon loved their masters so much that they followed them! Which leads to a humorous adventure kids and their families will enjoy reading.


SYNOPSIS

The Adventures of Honey & Leon
By Alan Cumming
Illustrated by Grant Shaffer

Honey and Leon are rescue mutts who love their dads very much. But their dads often have to go away on glamorous and important business, which worries the dogs. Honey and Leon are done staying home and fretting—they’re off on a dad-protecting adventure!

Careful to remain incognito, the two pups shadow their dads on a trip across the sea, keeping them out of danger at every turn! How did they survive without Honey and Leon’s protection for this long?!
