50 days of Christimas

Every year I like to find new Christmas decorations and I really like making the decorations.  This year I have been looking for a new wreath.  Something pretty and home made.  Well at Cabin & Cottage I found a really pretty wreath that looks easy to make and uses things I have at home.  The wreath looks very pretty and vintage. 123P1010770

This wreath uses a hanger shaped into a circle and the paper must be an old onionskin type tissue paper. The complete instructions can be found HERE on Cabin & Cottage.

I remember a wreath made out of old computer program cards that one of my sisters made.  Then I think it was spray painted.  I love homemade DIY projects.  Don’t you?  What kind of projects are you doing for the holidays?  Anything you would like to share?

PullyPalz

This innovative toy not only entertains baby, it keeps a pacifier in view and reach! With PullyPalz, dropped pacis even come back…Which is great for those times when parents need an ‘extra hand’.
The toy uses something similar to a pulley system…When baby drops one, and it falls to the side, another is in view and reach. By grabbing the one in view and pulling toward mouth, the dropped paci comes back!
Mo Mo, Moo Moo, and Puddles are always ready to lend a hand…or hoof!

With over 6 uses in 1 and designed with moms in mind, the PunkinWrap is quickly becoming the new “go to” baby shower gift.

The PunkinWrap also creates on demand privacy for sleeping babies and for moms who need to breastfeed. BONUS: use the extra links to clip on a little toy for your punkin’s entertainment!

Yubo

While making lunches for our two daughters, we became frustrated with the amount of plastic baggies used every day. The typical store bought lunchboxes we owned were impossible to clean, they collected crumbs and foul old-food odors. Worst of all, our kids were over the novelty of their lunchboxes less than a week after buying them! That was the start of our journey to re-invent the lunchbox. We successfully created yubo – a dishwasher safe, durable lunchbox that allows kids to change out the design without having to buy a new lunchbox.

crop_1ba3accbead4b1c8b289946dbdab8a436a4d65ac5a1b7cbd1ad55a8f165d6289a7e25da1250250Today I am reviewing a second eye product from Yalmeh.  This one is the Super Youth Eye Cream.  It helps treats and repairs wrinkles, dark circles and reduces the look of age spots and reduces fine lines around the eyes. It contains a combination of Organic Aloe, Alpha Lipoic and Alpha Hydroxy acids which work by removing old skin, allowing new skin to be produced. The Eye Cream is soft and creamy and feels soothing when you put it on. In fact, some have described the feeling as luxurious. It is not greasy. Formulated for Quick Absorption.

What I like about this product is that it is all natural ingredients, no mineral oil, propylene glycol or paraben.  It contains grapeseed oil, vitamins E and C.  It can be used by all skin types. Here is a few of the things that Yalmeh Super Youth Eye Cream helps with:

  • It hydrates your skin
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Removes old skin and allows new skin to be produced
  • Maintain a more youthful appearance
  • Reduces signs of broken capillaries that cause the dark circles

I have only just started using Yalmeh Super Youth Eye Cream but I can tell you I like how creamy it is.  My skin does absorb it. This does need to be applied with care. Wash your face with soap and then rinse and dry before applying eye cream. Dip the tip of the middle finger in the cream so you have about a 1/4-inch circle of cream on the finger tip. Touch the finger-tip to 4-5 places under each eye so there is a small dot of cream in 4-5 places. Using the middle finger of each hand, very gently smooth the cream over the skin under the eyes, around the edge of the eyes and under the eyebrows. Don’t use any pressure. Start by using only once per day until your skin adjusts to the product.

Do you have trouble with dark circles or puffiness under your eyes? Those are a couple of my problems. I don’t sleep all that well so I think that is part of the problem.  I have been looking for something to use around my eyes that doesn’t make them feel greasy.  I recently tried  Yalmeh Glory Eye Bright Gel.  It is different since it is a gel and not a cream. It specifically has an advanced formula for the delicate skin around your eyes to reverse the signs of aging. It is soft and feels soothing when you put it on. In fact, some have described the feeling as luxurious. It is not greasy. Formulated for Quick Absorption.

I have found that Yalmeh helps reduce the appearance of the dark circles and the puffiness.  I like that it drys fast and is a gel.  Sometimes eye creams make the area around your eyes feel tired and greasy. This gel is soothing and feels good. I like that Yalmeh is 100% natural and it also is 75% organic.   You can also use Yalmeh as an all over face treatment. I love when one product can do all the work.  Its easy to use just dab gently around your eyes after cleansing.  It can be used safely both in the morning and at night.  I can’t wait to see what Yalmeh does to my skin after extended use.

I have tried a number of products from InstaNatural and have not been disappointed in any of them.  The products work together helping keep your skin and hair great looking. InstaNatural’s Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Moisturizer is the product I am reviewing today.  It is a good moisturizer that I use at night while I am sleeping.  Here are a few of the benefits of the InstaNatural’s Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Moisturizer:

  •  Restores firmness
  • Heals sun damage
  • Erases age spots, dark spots and wrinkles
  • Increase skin brightness
  • Improves texture of skin
  • Reduces appearance of scars
  • Evens skin tone

What I like is how creamy and rich the lotion feels. My skin soaks it up and I wake up with smoother skin. In the past I have not been very good about using creams or moisturizers at night, but that is really the best time to moisturize.  Normally you are not touching your face when you sleep and you skin has a chance to heal and regenerate.  This products has Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Matrixyl 3000, Rosehip Oil and Argan Oil, to help improve your complexion and reduces the signs of aging in skin. This facial moisturizer can be used regularly to combat wrinkles, dark spots, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone and more.

I also like that InstaNatural’s products are made in small batches so you know care is given to the products.  The products are made in the USA and are cruelty-free and not tested on animals.  They are made in a FDA registered facility.

One of the ways to improve your skin and look more healthy is to drink lots of water to help hydrate your skin.  Some days it is hard to get in 8+ glass of water so you may need some help.  Miracalis Anti-Aging Facial Serum can help your skin look younger in just 28 days of continual use. It is designed specifically to lift, tighten, moisturize and firm your skin gently and effectively. Miracalis gives you a safe, gentle, hypoallergenic formula that is tested and recommended for all 4 major skin types: Normal, Sensitive, Dry and Oily skin.

What I like about Miracalis is that it used some great ingredients including Green Tea Extract, Jojoba Seed Oil and Vitamins A, B and E.  Ingredients that I know are good for your skin.  I found that Miracalis Anti-Aging Facial Serum was very easy to use.  I just applied a thin layer to my face after cleansing my skin.  I don’t usually use a moisturizer but if I did I would apply it after letting the serum dry which takes a few minutes.  I liked the way my skin felt after using Miracalis.  It did not feel greasy or oily.

Miracalis helps restore your facial collagen and leave your skin looking younger and more radiant.  If you would like to purchase Miracalis anti-Aging Facial Serum you can do so on the link below from Amazon.com

culCooking Up Memories

About the Book:

Capture and share favorite recipes, secret cooking tips and fond food memories with Cooking up Memories – the perfect gift for any keen cook or foodie.

The journal takes the cook in your life on a culinary journey. The entree asks a series of questions prompting the writer to recall some memorable food anecdotes, whilst the main course is a section for recipes and cook’s tips. Then finally, for dessert, the journal serves up a host of culinary facts and figures to help you turn out the perfect dish time after time.

This is the gift you give… and then get it returned with an amazing collection of recipes and stories that you will treasure and pass down the generations.

What I think about the Cooking Up Memories:
I really like the idea of sharing or passing on my favorite recipes.  My family has been forever talking about compiling the family favorites but we just never get around to doing it.
One of the things I like about this journal is that it combines the recipes and the stories that go with each recipe.  Through out the book questions are asked that make you add a bit of you in it.  Questions like “Tell the story of how you learned to cook” and “What family traditions about food or meals can you tell me about? ” I think the next time I go to Wisconsin I will bring this along and we can fill it in as a family.

If you are looking for a gift for someone who loves food or a gift for yourself you can purchase Cooking Up Memories from you to me HERE.

But after her divorce, she’s determined to find the good family man that her two young sons deserve. Although Andrea’s body sizzles whenever Ice is near, she knows in her heart that he’s not marriage material. Then why does the bad boy still seem like such a good idea?

Book Excerpt:

She spun on her heel with every intention of chewing him out, but froze under the gaze of those mesmerizing eyes that haunted her dreams. His grin said he had her where he wanted her—all to himself.

He needed to be set straight on a few points, first that she wouldn’t be manipulated. Maybe he couldn’t help himself, being a director, but she didn’t like it. She closed the gap between them as though she were glad to be alone with him. She got up close and personal, in full-on flirt mode, fingering his collar, feeling the pulse at his neck quicken, hearing his intake of breath. She leaned into him as if she meant to kiss him and whispered, “If you’d wanted to get me alone, sweetheart, all you had to do was ask.”

He started to reach for her, but she pulled back. He cocked his head, studied her, something bothering him, but not what she expected. “How’s Lucas?”

The question seemed to come out of the blue, like an angry hornet biting into her exposed flesh. Why had he asked about her son? What did Lucas have to do with him? Nothing, that’s what. “He’s none of your concern.”

Ice pressed his lips together, nodding. “You’re right. He’s not. I was just. . .being polite.”

She nodded, knowing she needed to draw a line with him. “The other day with you was an awful mistake. It can’t happen again. Ever.”

“Awful?” A soft laugh vibrated in his throat. “I don’t believe you. . .and you know as well as I do that it will happen again. . .” He was staring at her mouth, and then her breasts—which were standing at attention, either from the cold of the room or the heat of his gaze. She should leave now, but her brain wasn’t paying attention. It was listening to the baser requests being made by the glances of this so-wrong-for-her man.

“I don’t have any expectations,” she said. “I don’t want anything more. No strings.”

“What if I want strings?”

“You don’t want strings.” She couldn’t help but chuckle at the absurdity of that. “Any woman harboring that fantasy only has to sleep with you to realize it’s a foolhardy notion.”

His eyes clouded, a sure sign that she’d dented his ego. “What does that mean?”

Oh, God, why had she opened this can of worms? How did she explain that she’d had a man exactly like him? That she knew from experience he was only in it for himself. He didn’t want her for her. He was only turned on by her loving wild sex as much as he did. What could she say that would make him stop coming after her for more? “Don’t get me wrong. I enjoy hot, dirty sex as much as anyone, especially with a lover who knows his way around the female body. But like most women, I want something more.”

“Such as?” The glint in his eye said “bring it on.” He was up for any challenge she wanted to throw at him. Literally up for it, she realized, judging by the bulge in his chinos.

Her resolve wobbled, her grasp on the situation slipping through her fingers. But she couldn’t think when he looked at her like this, when she wanted to feel his mouth on hers, his arms around her, his body pressed close.

He came toward her. “Can’t think of anything?”

“Yes. I can.” But nothing was coming to her. Nothing she’d say to him.

He’d backed her into a corner, the heat issuing off him making her panties wet and her heart thunder. She felt like a moth fluttering toward a killing light. If she wasn’t careful, she might let him strip her naked right here, just to extinguish the flame that burned for him.   So much for being in control of any area of her life. She was a screwed-up mess.

He groaned her name, shoved his hands into her hair, and captured her mouth in a brain-tingling explosion of lust. She wanted to claw his clothes off and climb on top of him, right here, right now in the pie shop. He broke off the kiss, panting, his forehead to hers. “What is it about you. . .?”

50 days of Christimas

One of the things I love about the Holidays are the candles.  I love lighting a few candles at night and watching the flames flicker and see the warm glow they put off.  Shabby-Art-Boutique-Christmas-Township-Candle-Jar-2_thumbI remember when I was growing we got a candle making kit one year.  It wa so much fun making our own candles.

Over at Shabby Art Boutique I found this cute candle.  It looks like it is really easy to make and each one you create is unique.   I like how it looks like a snow village.

I think having these all lined up on a table would be great for entertaining.  Or just one or two sitting in a window would make your home see very inviting.  It’s amazing how just a few touches can make something so pretty.

You can find the complete instructions HERE on Shabby Art Boutique.

When I was growing up each year we were able to pick out a Christmas ornament. Mom said then when we move we can take them with us and have a start on our decorations. I  remember one year I found this sparkly snowflake. I loved it.  Now as I am older I look for Christmas ornaments that have a bit of meaning and Hallmark is where I find the best ornaments. keepsake-ornament_482-dream-book-2014

You can look through Hallmarks Keepsake Dreambook and find ornaments that will remind you of a certain day or something fun you like to do.  They have lots of variety from movies, sports, out doors, baking and even ornament frames.

IMG_0878(1)Each year when I go through my ornaments it brings back lots of memories.  This year I received Dr. Seuss’s How the Grinch Stole Christmas!™.  Don’t you love the story of the Grinch who stole Christmas and at the end  how his heart grew 3 sizes and he learned a big lesson on what Christmas really means. On the side of the ornament is a button you push and it retells part of the story.

My Hallmark Keepsake ornament even came with batteries so I could listen to it right away. I love the detail on the ornaments.  Hallmark has some great artist on their staff.  Each year they come up with some fantastic ornaments. Why don’t you start a new family tradition and get a new Hallmark Keepsake Ornament each year.
