Gift Idea for Creative Kids

November 20, 2018 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

I am affiliate with Loog Guitars. I receive commission from sales associated with the links below.

Sometimes it can be difficult to shop for creative kids. If you have a kid who loves to create things, you know what I am talking about. Traditional toys aren’t always the best option!

I am so excited to give my daughter a Loog guitar this Christmas! It is a guitar with three strings, so it is easier for beginners to play. They are made in smaller sizes for little hands, but they sound like a guitar, not a ukulele. They come with flashcards to help teach musical notes and there is an app that can teach how to play actual songs! [Read more…]

Mother’s Day Manicure Gift Envelope

April 27, 2018 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

Mother’s Day is right around the corner and it is time to start thinking about Mother’s Day gift ideas! I think it is important to give moms a reason to treat themselves for Mother’s Day, but it can be hard for them to find a time to go to a salon to use gift certificates. That is why I love the idea of giving moms Color Street nails for Mother’s Day! They are 100% nail polish strips that last longer than traditional nail polish, are super affordable, and moms are able to put them on themselves at home!

Color Street Gift Wrapping

December 6, 2017 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

I am a Color Street Independent Stylist. Color Street nails are nail strips, but they are made of 100% nail polish. They are really thin, so they don’t feel like something bulky is on your nails. They don’t require any heat or cutting to apply them either. But the best part is that they last 2 weeks (and sometimes longer) on your hands and toes! They come in a variety of solid colors, prints, French tips, glitter, and seasonal prints. They have so many different styles that they work for just about anyone, no matter what their personal style might be. You can see my application video and learn more about Color Street nails by reading this blog post.

These would be the perfect stocking stuffer, gift for your mom, sister, wife, girlfriend, best friend, daughter, pretty much anyone on your list! You can shop for them on the Color Street Glam website. The French tips are buy 1 get 1 free and ALL other styles are buy 3 get 1 free!

Here are some ways that you can gift them!

You won’t have any reason not to give Color Street nails after getting all of these great wrapping ideas and printables! [Read more…]

FrostGuard is Saving My Sanity this Winter!

December 5, 2017 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

When we first found out that we would only have a one car garage with our recent move, we were a little disappointed. Because I typically don’t have to leave as early each morning, I sacrificed the garage spot for my husband. I was still a little bummed out about the thoughts of having to scrape my windows each morning, but I was willing to make that sacrifice. Then I learned about FrostGuard® and was so excited to be given the chance to create a sponsored post for them!

This amazing invention is going to save me from having to scrape my windows this winter and I am so excited to be prepared for the snow! I was a bit skeptical about how tedious it would be to put on each time, but I was shocked over just how easy the Fit-Fast® attachment system is! [Read more…]

Minnie Mouse Hair Clip and Disneyland GIVEAWAY

December 1, 2017 By McKenzie 8 Comments

Yes, you read that correctly. Somebody is going to win a Southern California trip! All of the giveaway info is at the bottom of this post!

When you have a daughter who is as Minnie Mouse obsessed as I do, you have to think of every possible Minnie Mouse themed piece of clothing and accessory that you can make because she just can’t have enough! One day, I was doing her hair and I watched as she carefully chose which bow to wear. It hit me that we could totally make her her own Minnie Mouse inspired bow that would have her feeling like she was wearing Minnie ears any day, without feeling like she is wearing a dress up.

These little clips are so incredibly easy to make! They would be such a perfect stocking stuffer or a gift for your daughters to give to their friends for the holidays or for birthdays! Here is what you will need to make your own… [Read more…]

Vanilla Mint Sugar Scrub

November 6, 2017 By McKenzie Leave a Comment

I absolutely love how my skin feels when I am exfoliating regularly. It leaves skin feeling baby soft! I used to buy different scrubs to use in the shower, but they can be quite expensive. The good news is that making your own scrub costs very little and takes less than 15 minutes. It is a major win! I love making different varieties to try, but I also love making them to give as gifts! This vanilla mint sugar scrub is one of my favorite scrubs to make. The scent is really soothing and delicious!

To make your own, you need… [Read more…]

Wrapping Paper Neighbor Gift Idea with Printable

December 14, 2016 By McKenzie 1 Comment

I love neighbor gifts for the holidays! It is a great way to show your neighbors and friends that you are thinking about them during the holidays. The holiday season can get so crazy, sometimes you aren’t able to visit friends as much as you wish, so giving a little gift is a nice way to show them that you are still thinking about them! Neighbor gifts can be really hard because the price can really start adding up when you are buying for so many people and making treats for so many people can be extremely time consuming. I love giving gifts that people will be able to use, which is why I loved the idea of giving wrapping paper as a gift so that they could use it to wrap their Christmas gifts this season!
