New Year's Kids Confetti and Dragon Craft!

Save all of your scrap paper from Christmas. Don't throw away all that wrapping paper this year! We do this craft every year and it is great for the little ones. Save your paper and let the little ones cut out different confetti shapes and then they can throw it all over come New Year's! Also, check out these New Year Chinese Dragons the little ones will love this craft!

Materials
The dozens of toilet paper tubes were cut in half  and paper towel tubes were cut into sixths.
Poked holes in all the cup bottoms with an old seam ripper. You can also use scissors or a tack.
Cut a piece of yarn about 12-14 inches and double knot the end. Start threading first a cup, then a tube, cup, then tub, etc. until you’ve threaded all 6 or 7 cups. The last cup does not need a tube. Double knot the end.
When I first started making them, I used 7 cups (and 6 tubes) per dragon, but quickly switched to 6 cups (and 5 tubes) so I could make more dragons.
After strung together I hole-punched the first cup near the rim, and the third to last cup.
Then I cut two strings in equal length in the desired length you’d like your puppet to hang.
Tie a tight double knot to of one of the strings to the first hole-punched hole of the first cup. This is going to be the head of the dragon.
Tie the other end of the string to a stick. I used free paint stirrers from Home Depot. They were very nice about giving me a large quantity.
Do the same with the second string except tie one end to the third to last cup and the other end to the stick/paint stirrer.
Now it’s time to decorate. I printed out dragon faces on colored paper to be glued or taped to the head.
I also taped strips of cray paper to the bottom of the cups.
About 4-5 strips per cup.
And that’s it.
A Mighty Dragon Puppet!

Duff Holiday Collection Review!

Duff
Photo: We have a WINNER! Drawn from all the names entered into our contest, we're happy to announce that LORI DeANGELO has won the full collection of Duff's new HOLIDAY-THEMED cakes, cookies, and frosting! Congratulations, Lori! We'll be posting more about each of these fun and creative products over the coming week, so spread the word! Thanks to everyone who entered the drawing...your comments were fun to read! #duffgoldman #holidaybaking
Part of the magic of Christmas is baking up all the different yummy goodies! Every year I make every kind of candy, cookie and treat imaginable. It is part of our Christmas traditions. When I saw the new Holiday Line from Duff Goldman By Gartner Studios. We were able to try the Holiday Swirls, Chocolate Snowballs, Holly Jolly Cake, Ginger Cookies and the White Icing. I was very pleased with all of the unique flavors and variety of products available from Duff. Duff doesn't just make cake mix or cookies they make fun unique products that are perfect for cooking up some fun with the kids.
Separate dough and add coloring
Roll Into strings then roll together

Finished Candy Canes




















The first thing we made was the Holiday Swirls because I had a great idea instead of circle swirls we decided to make Candy Cane shaped Holiday Swirl cookies. These were a hit with every person who saw and tried them. They really stand out, have vibrant colors and make a beautiful centerpiece treat for guests. I did have to adjust the cooking time by 2 minutes though so you may want to watch and cook them a little less if you make Candy Cane shapes instead of circles. These are sure to please guests,kids or even Santa!

Next, we made the Chocolate Snowballs, everyone loves chocolate so I knew these would be a huge hit. The kids loved powdering the "snowballs" with the powdered sugar. I loved the texture of the Snowball Cookies they were so soft and moist in the center. Duff's products are a step above all the other name brands; they just taste so much better.
Photo: We revealed Duff's new HOLIDAY COLLECTION last Friday, but this week we'll introduce you to each product. First up is the HOLLY JOLLY Premium Cake Mix. With layers of holiday colors to dazzle the eye, and moist, delicious flavors to tempt the taste buds, the Holly Jolly cake is sure to become a holiday classic! Available NOW at Target and (on the East Coast) Stop and Shop stores.
Last we made the Holly Jolly Cake and yes I saved the best for last. The kids loved coloring the cakes different sections. I was so worried I would mess my Holly Jolly Cake up but I didn't. The directions were so precise and easy to follow that I had no trouble and the kids were even able o help with mixing, baking and frosting. The Holly Jolly Cake was moist, delicious and the frosting was so sweet and spread perfectly. The Holly Jolly Cake wasn't just tasty it was a conversation piece the whole family was asking how I made such a unique colored cake! The Holly Jolly Cake brings families together for baking, eating and fun during the holidays!
Photo: Kick your holiday baking into high gear with Duff's White Chocolate GINGER COOKIES! Traditional gingerbread mixed with a drizzle of white chocolate make a tasty treat for Thanksgiving Day and beyond! Available NOW at Target and H.E.B. stores! #duffgoldman #holidaybaking

Jspt Hair Cosmetics Paris Review! #Holiday Gift Guide

jean st. paul beauty
About 
A French perspective on beauty was born when Jean St. Paul realized that everyone deserved to look and feel attractive. Jean St. Paul believes in nourishing your body to bring out the inner beauty and make you shine. They have a full line of hair, skin and nails vitamins available now and will have a brand new full line of hair care products that I am so excited to try. I received the Shape Shifter Hair Spray and am in love! 

My Review!
The Jean St. Paul Shape Shifter Hair Spray was the first item that caught my eye. I love a hair spray that holds but is flexible. I hate those sprays that are so firm your hair looks like something out of a wax museum exhibit because it is so stiff. Hair to me should have movement, be full and vibrant and Jean St. Paul understands what women want a beautiful flexible hold. Jean St. Paul Shape Shifter Hair Spray gave my hair the soft shine, and flexible hold I was looking for. I like to add a few curls all over my hair. I spray my whole head with hair spray and then curl with hot rollers. With Jean St Paul's spray I could do just that and it gave my hair just the right amount of hold I needed! If you are looking for a great gift this Holiday season check out Jean St Paul for all your beauty needs!

Tender Filet Tur-Duc-Hen Review! #Holiday Gift Guide

The Tender Filet

Are you looking for the perfect Christmas dinner? Treat the family to Tender Filet this year. Tender Filet has only the best meats and premium cuts. We tried the Tur-Duc-Hen, I was very impressed. I love turkey and Chris loves duck so this was the perfect combination for us. We ate every bite it was so good. I absolutely loved the stuffing in the center it was perfectly seasoned. My serving of Tur-Duc-Hen was to die for, the serving was perfect and all the meat was so tender. The turkey basically fell apart it was so great; I love my meat juicy and tender and believe me this was.  I am not a huge duck fan but this duck was great I loved how the stuffing balanced out all of the different flavors of the meats. The Tur-Duc-Hen was perfect and the combination of stuffing inside was great. Tur-Duc-Hen is perfect for Christmas or any Holiday feast and would delight all of your guests!
Tur Duc Hen 1
Big in size and flavor, this unique, 4-pound roast combines moist and tender turkey, duck and chicken meat rolled around a stuffing made with pork, yellow and green onions, bell pepper and special seasonings. It's like a taste of Louisiana! Easy-to-prepare, just bake it or grill it to enjoy (4-lbs. net wt. Serves 10-12).
To order the perfect Christmas meal go to Tender Filet and check out their amazing Christmas selection here. Make sure you follow Tender Filet on Facebook and Twitter. Tender Filet wants to give you a chance to win your own Tur-Duc-Hen!

My Review:
Magnificent Candles are so unique! If you are a fan of Elvis these candles are sure to be the perfect holiday gift! My favorite candle I reviewed would have to be the Burning Love Candle because of the great story behind it. The Burning Love Candle was said to smell just like Elvis, so W.D. Briggs the owner of Magnificent Candles investigated why people thought the candle smelled like Elvis. He found that the candle smelled like Elvis because it's scent is actually very close to the cologne Elvis wore. The Burning Love candles ingredients are actually very similar to the ingredients in Elvis's cologne. Magnificent Candles have a very long burn time and are all hand poured in the USA. Each candle has a very unique and different scent. Tender Love is a soft scent almost like Baby Powder and I really liked it. It smelled so nice that I put it in baby Sierra's room. It wasn't too strong at all just beautifully fragrant! Magnificent Candles goal is to honor the memory and legacy of Elvis in a creative, fun and aromatic way. Their candles are made to be fit for a king, the King of Rock N Roll! And in my opinion they honor the King very well!

Some people call him Dr. Grapes, others call him Dr. Merlot. But his parents named him Wayne Beckley, Now he is gaining the title of "Father of Grape Seed Technology"

Ten plus years ago while watching 60 minutes, Wayne found out that people in France who consumed  diets in heavy saturated fats, but who seemed to suffer no heart disease, That report lead to findings of drink lots of red wine!


70 research studies that indicated drinking a couple glasses of red wine a day could be beneficial in warding off certain cancers and lowering cholesterol in the body. Why cause the antioxidants found in red grapes! Taking the research the next step higher Wayne, found out that the true power of a grape is its seeds! A grade seed is 50 times more powerful then Vitamin E and nearly 25 times more powerful then Vitamin C. So Wayne Beckley launched Merlot Skin Care, using the power of a grape seed! Merlot is a family ran business and based in Texas.
Make sure her skin is cared for day and night with the four-piece “Make Me Merry” set that includes Merlot Moonlight Radiance Night Cream, Merlot Moisturizer, Grape Seed Cleanser, and Purifying Peel Off Mask.  The perfect gift for close friends and family – mothers, aunts and cousins.

· Merlot Moisturizer – daily primer to hydrate and protect, anti-aging, with SPF

· Purifying Peel Off Mask – removes impurities and excess oil to clarify skin


My Review! 
Merlot Skin Care products have been praised for their high quality formulations and tremendous value. But the real secret is in the seed.
I absolutely loved the Merlot Body Wash and the face mask was amazing. My skin felt simply rejuvenated after the first use. Merlot smells so natural that just the scent is uplifting! I am such a face mask addict I love getting all the dead skin off and my Merlot face mask did great. It peeled off perfect and was not messy at all! I would recommend Merlot to anyone.

Now we have 3 little ones and a happy healthy family our newest baby is below Sierra she is less than a month old! To learn more about how to boost your fertility check out this great information below!
Looking for ways to boost your fertility without going to see a fertility doctor? Lucky for you, there are many different ways to improve fertility on your own without a doctor’s help. Getting plenty of exercise, eating right, and losing weight if you are overweight are all great ways to boost your fertility, say the experts at www.pregnancytips.org. Cutting down on caffeine and stress are both also a good idea. If you have any bad habits, like smoking, drinking alcohol or using illegal drugs, you should also know that all of those things can have a real negative impact on your fertility as well. There are fertility supplements that you can take as well. Known as fertility blends, these supplements are available over the counter and can really go a long way towards boosting, nourishing, and supporting the entire female reproductive system as a whole.
