Read MoreProduct Review: Decovil Light- Our First Try
So…. as I said in my last post in this series, I recently came across a new product (to me that is) called Decovil Light and since it came so highly recommended I thought I’d give it a try. I was told it would add additional body without stiffness but as it turns out, it…

So…. As I’m writing this post, it’s mid-December and for the first time since 2006, I’m actually starting my 4th pattern in 2020. But you know what?
