DreamWorks Trollhunters Part 2 Premieres Tomorrow Exclusively on Netflix

In Part 2 of the epic saga DreamWorks Trollhunters, ordinary teen-turned-Trollhunter Jim Lake Jr. faces new challenges in his continued battle to protect his hometown of Arcadia and the fantastical Troll world he inherited. Jim's risky decision to enter the Darklands unearths startling discoveries, forcing him and his friends to face gripping consequences as they race to end the battle against evil.  

This global family viewing event from acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro will bring viewers of all ages together, debuting only on Netflix, Friday, December 15.

With a good cast of stars this is sure to be a treat for all. Mark Hamill, Lena Headey and David Bradley, who join Kelsey Grammer in his Emmy-winning role as Blinky, Steven Yeun (Steve), Anjelica Huston (Queen Ursurna), Jonathan Hyde (Strickler), Amy Landecker (Barbara) and Charlie Saxton (Toby).  The late Anton Yelchin, who completed recording through Part 2, voices the lead role of Jim Lake, Jr. I know my girls loved when the first Trollhunters came out and I am sure they will love this just as much.

Healing Tree

I love it when I get to try out new Vegan products. This time I received a natural lip balm that goes on smooth and leaves my lips moist for quite a while. I also received the Thai Herbal Soap Red Chili & Spice which also comes in Sweet Basil & Lime. All of these products are available at the Healing Tree website with many other vegan products.

At first upon getting the Red Chili & Spice soap I was thinking it would be too harsh on my skin, but to my surprise it left my skin feeling clean, and soft to the touch.

BitElegant French Press

My husband loves French Press coffee the best so we were looking for a new glass and stainless steel Press and found one from BitElegant. It has a classic look with a nice weight to it. The glass beaker is removable so that you can wash both the glass and the stainless steel which is really nice if you are hosting.

I love that this comes with a spoon, extra screens, as well as a nice how to book for those who may be new to French Pressing, which also includes some recipes for flavored French Press Coffee's. This is a great item to choose for the coffee lover in your family and something I am glad we were able to try out years ago and fall in love with ourselves. 

Another great use for this is to make tea, which is my favorite way to use it. Either way our whole family loves to watch the French Press in action. This 34 ounce French Press from BitElegant is available at my affiliate link below.

Update from MarksvilleandMe

Fun Confetti Balloons

Love these balloons. Easy to blow up with the attached blow piece which is great for those who fight to blow up balloons like myself. Usually I have to get help to blow balloons up but not with these. This is a 15 piece set of 12 inch balloons filled with confetti. Great for pretty much any kind of party. Think New Years! Kids will love popping these and having the confetti fly everywhere.

I like that I can use the mouth pieces over again for other balloons we might have. I do have a few words of caution. I did find while blowing these up that smaller pieces of confetti can end up in your mouth so be aware so that if you have children helping you are close by.

To get the confetti to stick to the balloons like you see in the top picture I find that rubbing the outside of the balloon creates enough static to hold the confetti in place so that you have a more even look, instead of the confetti just laying at the bottom of the balloon like in my pictures. It was a bit of trial and error to figure it out but thought I would save my readers the time.

DIY Bun

I love to style my daughter's hair. Believe me with having 6 girls and 2 grand daughters I have done lots of hair. Even with that many I am still learning hair styles or easier ways of doing a style. Take buns for one. They are hard to do if you have a little one who wants one but doesn't want to stay still long enough to get one. I really believe this is where the messy bun came to be formed from. 

With bun makers like this one from Skinosm I am able to put up buns in a matter of seconds. Yes seconds and they look great. I love this set because you get 6 different colored bun makers. Think slap bracelet meets hair band. They are colored but I have found each color works well if you cover all of the edges evenly which is quite easy. 

Each one come with directions to either make a bun or a french twist. I love to put two of these in the girls hair. I start with a part and two ponytails to keep my place then I take one elastic out and follow directions for a regular but placing it where I would have one ponytail instead when I am down my girls have two cute buns on their heads. One of the favorite styles my 15 year old likes to wear.
