Great for weddings, anniversaries, baby shower, birthdays, or even for decorating rooms. I can see these in my daughters rooms in different colors around their mirrors. So cute and cheap. So if you aren't crafty or just don't have the time these pompoms just might be what you need.

Extra Comfy Headphones Giveaway



Recently we were sent a pair of headphones to try out but they came damaged so the company quickly sent out another pair which came in perfect condition, working great, sound is awesome, and they are over the ear which i like the best. These are the most comfortable over the ear headphones I have tried yet. 

My daughter says they look the expensive kind you can buy not going to mention names other then they start with a B. She was impressed and tried to snag them but no chance these babies are mine. I might let her borrow them from time to time but not until I at least break them in.

These are comfortable, fold for easy storing in my bag with my ipad min, as well as having a nice cord which you can use with your cell phone if need be. I am very happy with these and wouldn't mine checking out more of their products in the future.

Let the Nail Art Begin




Having 4 girls of our own as well as hosting many overnights with their friends over the years we have done lots, OK Tons of nail makeovers.

My girls love to do their nails and experiment with colors, techniques and designs when they have extra time.

My older daughter loves to do her nails and is probably the one who uses the most nail polish in our family.

I am more of a sparkly nail polish wearer but I do let the girls experiment with my nails from time to time.

I have always enjoyed doing designs on their nails and with this nail art brush it is so easy. Just make sure to use non acetone nail polish to clean your brushes with. Of course we have more then then this set for doing our nails but this is our newest and will be used the most until we perfect our technique before moving onto something new, and using these less often. My favorite piece would be the tiny dotter great for making snow fall nails.

You can find these nail art brushes on Amazon.


High quality, professional set
Ideal for the professional nail artist and the beginner expecting real results
The Nail Art brush set is easy to carry and use
With superior-quality
Easy to handle, perfect for professional and home use
8 Pcs a set
