Holiday Gift Guide: Mabel's Labels

Image
Mabel's Labels  was so kind and sent me over their middle school label pack to review for you guys!                                                                               Mabels Labels lets you completely customize your labels, from the color, font, they even have pictures you can add like a flower, or happy face. We decided to keep it simple and do our last name with this adorable buffalo plaid print which is perfect for the fall and winter. That way both My husband and I can use them.  There are so many uses for these labels. You can use these on water bottles, toys, lunch/snack containers, books, electronics, toiletries, on any clothing item, plush toys, linen, shoes, luggage, bags, and many more. They also offer iron on labels. I LOVE that these labels are dishwasher and laundry safe. I am a dishwasher girl. I try to avoid all handwashing only products as possible! This specific combo pack comes with 126 labels and 2 tags. Mabel's makes such

Holiday Gift Guide: Nadine West

Image
Alright you guys, it's time for another  Nadine West review. I am sure you guys know by now, but I am OBSESSED with Nadine West! This month I received 12 items.                                                                     These pants are super cute and unlike anything I have ever owned. The only problem is, these bad boys are LONG! I am fairly tall for a girl at 5'9 and these pants go up to my boobs and are still touching the ground.. I know these are meant to be high waisted but.... that's a little too high waisted for me! Hemming them won't even help because the crotch is so dang tall.. Unfortunately these will not work for me, but they are still super cute! I laughed out loud when I saw these, not gonna lie.. Then I tried them on... LOL these things are super comfy! They are at a strange length for me but I roll them 2 times and they are cute.  I have been rocking these for work lately and I feel like I an wearing pajamas, they are that comfy!

Holiday Gift Guide: Gramma In A Box

It's time for another  Gramma In A Box review! This months box was under the sea themed and holy smokes was it super cute!                                                                   Here are just a few pictures of my box this month! I always do this box with my 7 year old cousin who has quickly taken the reigns on this. She now knows exactly what to do, and how to prepare/make all the projects in the box.  Gramma In A Box makes the BEST gifts for any little one! Gramma has some pretty amazing deals going on that you don't even need a coupon code to get. If you sign up for the subscription service with an auto debit program, your month will only be $20 month and your first box will only be $10! Gramma also has other options for prices and subscriptions.  I think this is such an amazing Christmas gift for a little one in your life. I am HUGE memories over things person. This allows you to spend time with your littles every month doing a fun, yummy cr

Holiday Gift Guide: Milk Snob

Image
I am sure by now that you all have heard of the company  Milk Snob . They make some amazing baby products! One of my personal favorites being the multifunctional nursing covers. These bad boys can be used in so many ways, not to mention they are SO dang cute! I received the print Main Squeeze.                                                                         Come on you guys! How stinking cute? These adorable covers can be used as a nursing cover, a shopping cart cover, high chair cover, infant car seat cover, and much, much more. My favorite way to use these are over an infant car seat. I really like the idea of protecting your little one from not only natural elements like the weather but also from strangers and germs. I know those little tags that read something like "please don't touch, your germs are too big for me" are super popular right now. These super cute covers make it so no one is even able to see your little one to touch them. Genius, right?

Holiday Gift Guide: Defender Ring

Image
Another item on the Holiday Gift Guide! This time on  Defender Ring.                                                                           Alright guys... So... This one is kind of a bust for me. Maybe it's because they sent me a ring that only fits my pinky and not my index or middle finger like they suggest on their website. Or the fact that the spike that you are supposed to use to defend yourself if necessary is tiny! My wedding ring would hit someone before the Defender Ring would and my wedding ring would probably do more damage..  I do not know if bigger size rings have bigger spikes but this one was pretty tiny.. The ring with the jewel on it, is pretty cute! I love the rose gem. I would totally rock the ring like that but once again, I am not a pinky ring girl. Defender Ring also has multiple different color options and gems to pick from. If you guys are into rings like this, then I totally suggest these! They aren't my favorite but that doesn

Holiday Gift Guide: TRUHAIR

Image
If you have a girl in your life, no matter the relationship, you need to order from  TRUHAIR for their Christmas present. I received the Volcanic Volume to review for you guys.                                                                       Easy to use Instant volume and texture Refreshes between shampoos Removes oils and impurities Reduces odor Fortifies hair with natural oils Amazing coconut-lime smell                                                                           I was kinda shocked when I saw this. I have never used a paste dry shampoo before. I've always done the spray, hairspray like stuff. I didn't know how this would work and if it would help with the greasiness that occurs with not washing your hair every day. It's super simple to use, simply rub a dime size amount in your hands and apply to your roots, continue as desired. The description on the box reads "Instant volume, texture and c

Holiday Gift Guide: God's Glory Box

Image
It's time for another  God's Glory Box review! This month was one of my favorites so far! Firstly It came with a hand written note explaining everything in the box. I am a sucker for hand written notes. There's something about someone taking time out of their day to write a note or letter that just makes me so happy!                                                                   First up is this 40 day reading guide and prayer journal. These are the types of devotionals that I tend to reach for the most. I like ones that outline everything for me, it helps so I can finish my daily devotional in a timely manner and it honestly is nice on days when I'm super busy. Although this does outline everything for you, it makes you think more than a lot of other daily devotionals do. A typical day outline gives you multiple verses to read then it has an area that says "Write it out", next up is "I am praying for", "I will share Jesus with and h

Simply Earth

Image
Any other essential oil lovers out there?  Simply Earth sent me over their Lavender 15ml therapeutic grade essential oil bottles to review for you guys. I used to think that essential oils were a bust and that they didn't do anything.... Yeah, I know, I was wrong! I am now obsessed and use all different scents for different things.                                                                             I love the simple packaging. Sometimes less is more and this is my type of packaging. This is very fresh, herbal, of course florally, with a woody, balsamic undertone. I have used this in multiple ways. Simply putting it on my temples, behind my ears, wrists, in a diffuser and my personal favorite is following one of the recipes on the Simply Earth website and making a relaxation rub.  Let me be 100% transparent. The number 1 reason why I am such a HUGE fan of Simply Earth, has nothing to do with their products, but rather the good they do. With every purch

Relm Wellness CBD + CBG

Image
I was recently given the opportunity to work with  Relm Wellness CBD + CBG .  They sent me one of their body butters in the scent Frankincense.                                                                                                   This .5oz container contains 125mg of CBD and 25 mg of CBG. It's simple to use. simply apply to sore or irritated skin or muscles. This tiny little tub of body butter is powerful and will help give you the relief you have been waiting for.  I like many people were very skeptical of CBD and the amazing properties it has. I now know some people who use CBD in a variety of ways and it has dramatically changed their lives. I am currently going IVF so I did not feel comfortable using this product. I only use products that are okayed from my doctor at the moment. I did however give this to a friend to use who suffers with chronic wrist pain from arthritis. She said this made a huge difference! She used this before bed for about 2 w

Adoratherapy Room Boost Review

Image
Adoratherapy sent me over their room boost clear away in the scent sage and grapefruit.                                                                           Adoratherapy's scents are beyond organic. Most scents are meant to smell great, it's all about outer beauty but Adoratherapy is designed to breathe in, it's all about inner beauty. Not only are Adoratherapy's products 95% organic or more, but they are also vegan and cruelty free! They also contain no synthetic scents or unapproved clean ingredients. The reason why they are only 95% organic is because the other 5% is water and water is not considered organic. "Transformation is at the very heart of the ADORAtherapy mission. Their Mood Boosts, lift and shift your mood in the moment, allowing you to tap into your best self. As you transform into the best version of yourself, we become more self-loving, more accepting and more integrated. ADORAtherapy's hand crafted, experiential fragran

Clearly Filtered Water Filter Pitcher

Image
Clearly Filtered was very kind and sent me over one of their water pitchers. My husband and I are HUGE water drinkers. We have at minimum, 12 water bottles in our fridge at all times. I live in Michigan and if you guys pay attention to anything in the news the last couple of years/months, you would know that our water isn't exactly the safest to drink. Filtering your water is pretty important, at least it us to my husband and I. I have used a few different filters and I personally have never noticed a difference.  Before I go into my review, I want to share a video with you guys. This is not my video, but one made by Clearly Filtered. In the video you will see 2 water filter pitchers, one brita and one from Clearly Filtered. In the video they pour water with red food coloring into the pitchers and the results are pretty shocking... You can watch that video  HERE .                                                                          The pitcher came with a double sided

Grofive Expandals

Image
Grofive was so kind and sent me over a pair of their expandals (expandable sandals.) They sent me over the woman's gray sandals in size 7-11.                                                                     So I have pretty big feet. I wear between an 9-11 depending on brand of shoe and width. These sandals say they go up to an 11 but they are snug on me. My toe is touching the front of the shoe when I walk and it isn't very comfortable. I do have wide feet as well so maybe that is part of it. Other than the sizing of the shoe, these are amazing. They are water proof, they have a wonderful mission, and are great for kids! Grofive comes in 4 different colors and they have sizes for little kids, big kids, and men and woman. The reason behind Grofive is pretty awesome.  One of the owners was in Kenya, whilst there he saw a little girl with shoes so small, that she cut off the front of her shoes so she could continue to wear them. Seeing that gave him an idea

Planet Laundry Detergent

I had the pleasure of using Planet Laundry detergent to review for you guys. For those of you who have been following my blog for a while, know that I have SUEPR sensitive skin. I have to use free and clear detergent and I am always looking for the next best brand.                                                                     Not only is this free and clear, it is also certified biodegradable, it is not tested on animals and it is hypoallergenic. My husband and I started using this and we noticed a huge difference in the way our clothes felt after using this. Have you guys ever washed your clothes, and after they didn't feel clean? You won't have that issue with this! My husband and I plan on cloth diapering our future children. We turn to a website called Fluff Love University for all of our cloth diapering washing questions. We found out that Planet Laundry detergent is not only cloth diaper safe, but also recommended! We were originally planning on use tide
