~ Review ~ Wolfyok Blue Sleeping Bag

If you click on the links in the post and make any purchase Primitive Gypsy will receive a small commission. I did receive this item free for an honest and unbiased review.

This is the coolest sleeping bag. It's for sure the most compact sleeping bag I have ever seen and I have owned a lot of sleeping bags over the years. My family goes camping all year long, no matter the weather. This bag is perfect for sleeping outside in the summer because it's meant for warm weather camping. It would be an ideal companion in your camper or motorhome.

This sleeping bag is very thin and rolls up so small. It's a great one if your hiking and to have around just in case. It weighs nothing and can be attached to your belt, backpack, etc. This bag is perfect for kids, perfect for the hammock, mat, cot, or mattress camping. It's thin shell and very little padding makes it easy to carry and store, but also makes it not ideal for ground camping. Unless maybe it's a young child. One thing I do love is that unlike the mummy style of sleeping bag you can unzip this one fully and use it as a cover for two when it's hot, or just breezy. It could also be used as a picnic style blanket, shaken out and quickly folded back up.

I also love that because it is so thin and lightweight it can be machine washed. Very few sleeping bags can live up to that without taking them to the cleaners or a large capacity washer. It would be awesome for a bicyclist, hiker, or quick camping trip! You can get one of your own on Amazon HERE. By the way, did I mention the wonderful low price?

~Review~700 Thread Cotton Sheet Set by Francois et Mimi

~I received this for my honest review, all opinions are 100% my own.~

These sheets by Francois et Mimi are just wonderful. They are made of 100% cotton and are a 700 thread count. They are exceptionally soft and silky. They have a shiny finish, but not like silk where you or the sheets are constantly off the bed. They are wrinkle resistant and after a tumble in the dryer come out smooth. So if your old fashioned and like ironed sheets there is no need.

The sheets I bought were the Navy, and as you can see are a true Navy. They matched the other Navy colored items in my room perfectly. They offer numerous color choices. You can see the silky finish to the sheets. They are not a flat matte.

They come packaged like all sheets do in a nice plastic zippered case. They wash well and seem to also be holding up well. We live in the country and get a lot of dust so I wash things more often. I have seen no problem with the quality of these sheets even after a number of washes. I do wash them in cold water.

You can buy your own set of 700 Thread Cotton Sheet Set by Francois et Mimi on Amazon.
