Glass Painting Ideas



When our family thinks of Holidays we also think of arts and crafts we can do each year. This year we want to dabble a bit into glass painting which we can all do. I want to do clear glass ornaments, Glass Picture Frames, and cups this year. Keep a look out for that blog in the next few weeks. 

With Glass Paints like this one form iMustech you can really go all out. One tip is to make sure you wait the whole 7 days for your glass art to be at it's best color fastness. There are so many ideas running through my head that I have the next few weeks to trickle them down to what we are going to do. Making crafts and creating things with my family is one of my favorite activities. 

You can find the 12 piece set of iMustech glass paints at my affiliate link below.

Love My Paddle Brushes




As soon as I could buy my very own brush I ditched the nylon brushes my mother used for boayears on my hair for boars bristle or Paddle Brushes. Paddle Brushes are my favorite by far and this one from BeautyFrizz is awesome because it is eco friendly with a wood handle which means when it someday breaks down it won't take as long to break down in the earth.

I love Paddle brushes for the fact that they go through my tangles easily and always leave my hair at it's best. I don't get my hair trimmed or styled very often but when I do I almost always told that my hair is really healthy for going so long without a haircut. My haircuts are usually a year or more apart.

This is also a great brush for blow outs, and for distributing your natural oils through your hair to keep it healthy longer. This brush from BeautyFrizz is available at my affiliate link below.

Musical Hovering Soccer Ball



One thing our family likes to do is to play soccer. Now with the new hovering soccer balls like this one from TheSimple we can play inside all year round. This one has lights with sound and works on 4 AA batteries which are included. Great for gift giving.

I love how this hovers and moves so smoothly while playing with it. If it hits furniture it will not damage anything. Even our kittens will bat this back and forth to each other. Great for family inside fun on rainy or snow days. Think cabin fever.

There is a downside you can not choose to turn off the music if you choose it all runs on the same switch as the lights and fan. My girls play with this quite often. I even get in on the fun from time to time. TheSimple Hovering Musical Soccer ball can be found at my affiliate link below.
