Mandala Blue Bohemian Wall Hanging

This is a nice piece of art or home decor. I was planning on using this on the beach, but after seeing how beautiful it is I am not sure. Because of the large size 80x60 inches this can be used for a wall hanging, beach blanket, picnic blanket, bed covering, etc. This is made from polyester so you can expect this to last for years to come. 

I know once my older daughter sees it she is going to want it but this is staying put here. Can not wait to move and start decorating, this is going to be a really nice addition to everything else I have been putting away.

MarksvilleandMe discovered 3Dprinting

OK so we really didn't' discover it but we have discovered how to make things from this neat item. Think of it as a glorified glue gun if you will. 

I wanted a 3D printing pen that was family friendly and this had everything I wanted. It has both USB power, and an ACDC power source for all of your needs. It has adjustable heat settings which is shown on the OLED screen, as well as adjustable speed settings. It comes with an extra nozzle, a mini plastic screwdriver, and 5 spools of filament to get you started. It also has an advance filament button and a back up filament button. 

My girls are already getting used to this as I am writing this review. I am sure in a few days they will be well into making their own creations. You can find ideas on Pinterest and Youtube if you can't come up with your own. I do suggest having an adult near by since this gets so hot.

Keeping it COOL

Summer is coming and this a go to item for our family. We use these all year round for different activities but during the summer we find these especially useful for when the electric goes out on the hottest day and you can't sleep.

Just soak these with water, twist, snap, and place on your body to cool. Best places are back of neck, wrists, and back of knees. These are also great cooling down those who have fever or sun stroke. Also great for laying on sunburns.





Soft on skin, has 98% UV blocking rate 50+ UV protection index.

Most of the time these are used while exercising, yoga, pilates, bike riding, and walking in our family. I love that even if it is just sweat if you twist and snap it will still feel cool. A plus for those who may work outside in the heat all day long.

I love that they are two toned, but do wish they came in more feminine colors like pink and purple. My girls would be in love for sure.

40 Watt Hot Glue Gun

Being that our family loves to do arts & crafts, a glue gun is a must. We have small glue guns that do low and high temperatures and now we have a large glue gun that does high temperatures too. Much more friendly to the adult hand then our smaller glue guns which are great for smaller hands.

Glue guns are great for all kinds of crafts and even handy for fixing things around the home. This glue gun comes with extra glue sticks whicn means you don't have to run out right away to get more. The glue gun also has a nice kickstand so you can place it down when you are in between pieces or when you are letting it heat up or cool down. 

Remember to supervise children closely with items like this, they can really burn you badly.

My nail clippers, tweezers, and files always go missing. I am hoping that with this shiny case they might stay as a set although my daughter did give it the eye when I unboxed it. I told her hands off this is mommy's. 

I think this is a pretty case filled with most of what you will need to get through life's broken nails. Having everything in one case also keeps them ready at a moments notice and will look great in your purse, your bedside table, or even your vanity.

• WHAT IS IN THE PACKAGE: 1 x Tweezers 1 x Cuticle Clipper 1 x Eyebrow scissor 3 x Nail Clippers (small one, big one, bevel one) 1 x Nail file 1 x Ear pick 1 x V shape Cuticle pusher 1 x U shape Cuticle pusher 1 x Pealing knife 1 x Pealing fork
