I just wanted to let you know that I will be taking a short break from blogging before school starts back! I wanted to get everything in order, and enjoy some much needed time with family and friends.
I promise I will be back very soon with what I got for Christmas, and Ipsy bag review, an Influentster VoxBox review, a few other surprises and a super awesome GIVEAWAY!! So stay tuned!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, have a Happy New Year, and I will talk to you soon!
Directions:Peel any paper off of the crayon, and begin to shave wax curls from the side of the crayon. You can do this by pressing and sliding the knife or peeler along the crayon as you would chocolate while baking. Make sure the curls fall onto the paper plate!Remove the top metal piece of the glass ornament. Bend the plate to make a spout and pour the curls into the ornament. I like to fill mine about 1/4 to 1/3 of the way full, but it is totally up to you to decide how full you would like the sides of the ornament to look!Reinsert the metal piece in the top of the ornament. With the hairdryer on low to medium speed, begin to heat up the ornament. Shake and rotate periodically to fully coat the inside. Be careful, it gets very hot!Place a hook on the ring, hang on the tree, and thank me later!
Datebox is a subscription for primarily married couples, but it works for anyone with a significant other! The point, is to get married couples to sit down once a moth, and have a date night to themselves. I had never heard of this subscription box before, until I was scrolling through my Instagram feed one day and saw someone promoting it, with a promo code! You all know how I can't resist good deals... This box is normally about $35 per month, plus $5 shipping... That is expensive. But I paid only the shipping! And that makes it fun!
Here is the look at the inside, and let it be known that I cleared out an abundance of bubblewrap before taking the picture, so it was well packaged!
The first thing I pulled out was these two mugs that say "Baby it's cold outside" and "I've got your love to keep me warm," so sweet!
And then they sent hot chocolate to go in them!
Though the other themed presents I have suggested were versatile, this one can be made completely your own! It is perfect for the movie lover, and you can choose any movie you like! This was a present for my boyfriend for our first Christmas, and I chose Batman!
Black T-shirt - Just needed some basics! Baby Lips - Like I don't have enough of these already... But this is a new color! And it's Limited Edition! The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Skin Care Set - This set comes with toner, face wash, lotion, and pure tea tree oil. It has great reviews, and I'd been wanting to try something like this for a while, so why not! Paper Straws - Because sales... Book with Ornament - This cute little picture book comes with an ornament that the child writes their name on, and then they press a button and it glows, so Santa can find them! I thought I might give this a present, but then I decided it was cute and I wanted to keep it for when I have my own house and family one day (which I did a lot of during this trip...) Dry Shampoo - This is my favorite, and I've been out for a while, and it's much cheaper here.
9:45 Just arrived at Paula Deen's for breakfast!
We had chicken and waffles, eggs, bacon, hash brown casserole, bacon, bananas foster french toast, and biscuits and gravy!
And look how pretty Mom's tea was!
4:05 I am so done with shopping… But we did get cupcakes! We picked out a Christmas tree, cookie dough, classic cheesecake, and turtle.
