Starting off strong with skincare #ad





Making Skincare Accessible!
These empty jars are INCREDIBLY user friendly and if you or someone you know has motility issues or anything that can cause sore, uncooperative hands -this one is for you! #ad


Nail Polish & Kits
I love a flashy, bright, short nail...How about you? #ad






My Favourite Techy Things!
First Up - My favourite crafty things! I'm attempting to make all of my Christmas cards this year by hand, and this is the stuff that helps me stay neat (because truthfully, crafts and I have never gotten along!) That means this stuff is AWESOME because it helps me craft the way I've always wanted to but couldn't! #ad
Cricut is a gamechanger for me, and I don't need a big machine for what I plan on doing, so here are my favourites! #ad

If you don't want to fuss with cutting cardstock to size (don't worry I have my favourite ones to share too!) Cricut makes it easy with their ready-to-be-made card packs! These work best with a mat specifically for making these cards, but there are tons of tutorials out there on how to make them without one! #ad


Cricut also now has "Smart Materials" that can be used without a mat, and these two sample packs have everything you need to give them a try! #ad


Last name brand Cricut for today is this amazing rainbow of colours that come in this amazing cardstock value pack! #ad

Now, I am NOT a fancy name brand lady when it comes to most things, and for crafting materials, it can really add up if you don't find some decent quality alternatives for a better price! Here are my current favourite alternatives to name brand! #ad
Did you know you can get pens to fit in the cricut? It will draw and write for you! #ad

Now, I like having a tonne of mats so that I can make things in bulk, even on a smaller machine! #ad

A craft knife comes in handy, but you definitely need a name brand for that! This one works great and has a lifetime supply of replacement blades! #ad

I have used a variety of different colours of this brand of cardstock, and this Primary Colour pack is perfect for making holiday cards! #ad

I gave this sparkly permanent vinyl a try to make some ornaments to add to some gifts, and I'm pleased with how easy it weeds and transfers! #ad

Speaking of ornaments, I'm super pleased with the quality of this pack! #ad

Next "techy" category - photograph printers!!! I love the freedom of being able to print off photos at home without having to fuss with my main printer to get it to print photos instead of normal paper! #ad


And for smaller, cuter photos with sticker backing? We've got a Canon recommendation for you! #ad


Next up - READING!!! I swore I'd never get an e-reader, but when I realised how easy it is to get free books, and they come in colour now, not just black and white!
This is my current Kindle!!! There is a "newer" model but I'm obsessed with mine! #ad

This is the newer model, in case you're curious! The colour of it is so pretty! #ad

If you're just looking for a base model with plenty of storage, a nice bright screen and super responsive page turning, this is for you! #ad

It wouldn't be me if I didn't share the version that has the books in colour! #ad

Whether you realise it or not, you NEED the next accessory for your Kindle! #ad

PET SUPPLIES! This double automatic feeder and this water fountain are both amazing! The water fountain sends notifications to my phone when the water is being drank, and the food is set on a timer, but if the babies are driving me batty in the bedroom, acting like they're starving, I can open the app on my food and give them some manually! It's interesting to see how they've adjusted to it! #ad


NEXT - Stuff I love for my kitchen!!! #ad

Having a rice cooker is SO much more convenient and I don't know why it took me so long to get one! #ad

BEST lunchbox for kids! The thermos is the perfect size and keeps food warm, and the box is waterproof (and the spoon and fork are flexible and can be bent to fit! #ad

Sometimes you just want some spaghetti without cooking some spaghetti and this is quick AND delicious! #ad

I was using Gluten-free gravy mix from the grocery store for my daughter with celiac disease, and I didn't realise they had milk in the ingredients! She also has a dairy allergy...I found this brand, it's Gluten-free AND vegetarian and both varieties are absolutely delicious and I'd buy it for the flavour even if my children didn't have food allergies and intolerance! #ad


LOVE my Instant Pot, but fell in love with a crockpot this year! #ad

Not me obsessively vacuum sealing the entire contents of our kitchen because I can! #ad


Now that I've had a battery operated video doorbell for a year or so, I don't know how I ever lived without one! #ad

Women's Clothing & Accessories
Starting with, Jewelry! #ad






Every one who carries a purse needs a nice handbag for special occasions! Here's a few that I LOVE #ad



Next up - Wraps/Shawls that are warm, beautiful and able to be dressed up or down depending on your plans! #ad




And something some of us LOVE...Shoes/Boots #ad



Sometimes even parents have time for puzzles! I found some absolutely beautiful ones! #ad



And then there's the yearly restock of essentials for the man in our life #ad






And last but not least...A few odds and ends that I LOVE but don't have a category to fit in but they need to be shared because they're awesome! #ad
These are a MUST for people who have multiple pairs of glasses or sunglasses! #ad

Totally random, but some of us NEED the props to boost creativity! #ad

This nightstand has charging ports AND LED lights! Three drawers is plenty of storage! #ad

The BEST thing for cleaning irritating, hard to reach places! #ad

I wanted a waterfall showerhead AND a handheld showerhead and this is the best of both worlds! #ad
