Another Great Tinsel Foil Fringe Curtain by Happy Time!

New Year's Eve...here I come! Everyone should have an awesome backdrop for holidays, parties or special occasions, especially when picture taking is involved. I love backdrops.  They just make any photo or video, pop, and can turn your ordinary photo into something special.

I've been doing YouTube videos for quite some time, but just only recently, been incorporating backdrops and backgrounds into my videos, trying to make them look more appealing and professional (I still have a long way to go!)  They are just so fun to work with, especially when you have a shiny, glitzy backdrop as this Happy Time Tinsel Foil Fringe Curtain, shown here.

I had a lot of fun, (probably my funnest) creating a video using this vibrant blue tinsel foil curtain.  This tinsel foil fringe curtain is perfect to hang in doorways, creating a fun entrance into the next room, to a party.  It's also perfect for New Year's Eve and for those baby showers and birthdays.  And...being that this tinsel foil curtain is 3.2 feet by 9.8 feet, it's plenty long enough for us tall adults.

If the tinsel foil is too long, you can always cut it at the bottom, saving the cut ends and using them to fill in any extra gaps in your curtain.  You can also cut the length you need, if using this tinsel foil curtain to decorate your tables.  There are just so many ways you can use this Happy Time Tinsel Foil Fringe Curtain and OH....did I mention this came as a 3 pack...with a package of 5 free balloons!  The balloons has this confetti inside, making them the perfect addition to your party!

I will mention, if you are using this for a doorway entrance, one curtain should be sufficient.  But, if you are wanting a fuller and thicker look, such as for videos and photos, it will definitely take all three packages.  I also added more bulk to my backdrop by taking the very bottom ends and folding them up towards the middle  and top, to give me that fullness I was looking for.  The curtains has a double sided tape, allowing you to attach to a smooth wall, but if your walls are not as perfect, skip using the self adhesive tape that is attached to these curtains and use thumbtacks to keep in place.

Display Your Announcements on the Indigo Fern Felt Letter Board!

I can't tell you how many times, that I wished I had some sort of a board for birthdays, announcements, milestones, etc.  I was always envious of those who had the perfect setup and backgrounds that included a felt letter board that just seemed to put that finishing touch on photos.

Well....drum roll please!  I finally got one!  A 12" x 18" felt letter board that not only comes with 600 letters, characters and emojis (YES! emojis!) but an easel, cutting tool as well as twine and 4 mini clothes pins to hang precious photos.  This Indigo Fern felt letter board is perfect for those anniversaries, birthdays, bridal showers and even those who want to have a lemonade stand!  

This board has 116% more space than your original 10" x 10" board and gives you plenty of room to display whatever message you want to send out.  Just think about all the endless possibilities you will have with this board.  Use it as a prop against a backdrop for those professional photos or maybe just as a reminder, sitting on your kitchen counter top.

This felt letter board by Indigo Fern includes:

*Photo Hanging Kit (2 eye hook screws, 4 mini clothes pins & 19" of jute twine)
*Easel
*Cutting Tool
*Drawstring Storage Bag.

I love that the Indigo Fern Felt Letter Board comes with a cutting tool, because if I had to cut each individual letter out with scissors, or worse yet, by hand...it would take forever!  I did find, however, that I had a little trouble keeping the easel upright, without sliding in, but hopefully this was because I had the easel on a slick surface (my counter top.)  But with careful placement, you can display your message with ease and capture that perfect moment.

It's also cool that it comes with the mini clothes pins and twine, as this is perfect to hang those photos, but I don't know how often I would use this...but many of you will.  My main purpose of this letter board will be the use of the letters, numbers, characters and of course... THE EMOJIS!

Who Does Your Little One Love? Poppy, Gigi, Nana - The Shabby Cupcake Onesies & More

We all have a name (or nickname) that our little ones will call their grand-parents, parents and family.  In my case, I have a 7 month old grandson who will call me Gigi and my husband, Poppy.  I've always loved that name - Gigi and Poppy was handed down from my husband's late father, who was also known as Poppy.

We couldn't wait to be grandparents!  We both instantly knew, what we were going to go by (Although I did toss a few names around in my head, after deciding on Gigi).  Whatever the name or nickname, it's always fun to find clothing that matches that...especially when it comes to grandparents!  I've had so much fun, shopping and looking for fun little baby outfits.

Since babies stay in onesies for some time - except on occasions- it's always nice to find personalized onesies that have a meaning.  That is why I absolutely adore this onesie by The Shabby Cupcake.  The Shabby Cupcake Etsy Shop has 45 items geared toward your little one, with 36 of them being clothing.  This onesie has the words, " I (Heart) Poppy" embroidered across the front with three snaps near the bottom.  

You can specify what color you want the words, what name you want printed as well as the option for a long or short sleeve onesie or t-shirt.  If you don't see the particular name you are looking for, just shoot Vanessa a message and she will do her best to create it for you!

I absolutely love this onesie.  It is on a white Carter's onesie with a pretty aqua colored lettering with the heart done in aqua, pastel yellow and gray.  The onesie fits perfectly and I do believe Poppy is proud of this baby item!

Below is the sizing chart

Onesie Size Chart

P ~ Up to 17 in. Up to 5 lbs
NB ~ Up to 21.5 in. 5-8 lbs
3m ~ 21.5-24 in. 8-12.5 lbs
6m ~ 24-26.5 in. 12.5-16.5 lbs
9m ~ 26.6-28.5 in. 16.5-20.5 lbs
12m ~ 28.5-30.5 in. 20.5-24.5 lbs
18m~ 30.5-32.5 in. 24.5- 27.5 lbs
24m ~ 32.5-34 in. 27.5-30 lbs

My grandson is 7 months old and he can wear the 6 month onesie.  Being that this is a Carter's brand, you may want to go up a size to get more wear.  The lettering is stitched perfectly and I love that it looks as if it's hand stitched and raised, instead of vinyl lettering.  So soft, cute and perfect colors!

Go visit The Shabby Cupcake Etsy Shop.  Not only will you find these adorable onesies, but other adorable items as well, such as Maternity, Disney and Birthday items.

Gold Glitter Party Cups by BBA Homemade on Etsy

I'm a big fan of going all out on a party.  Whether it's a birthday party, baby shower or just a party at home with a few friends, I love to decorate for the occasion.  

AND....I love anything that is glittery, blinged out and poppin'!  That is why I love these plastic cups by BBAHomemade.  BBAHomemade is a store on Etsy. They have these cups in 20 count for only $10!  The cups are clear plastic with the bottoms done in gold glitter.  Not a fan of gold glitter?  Why not have them customized to the color of your choice?  

These glitter cups were used at a baby shower I hosted, recently.  They were a great hit and looked awesome against the pink tablecloth for the drink table. These are more for decoration purposes than drinking, as I found, that if not careful, some of the glitter can end up inside your drink.  I have a bad habit of reaching for my cup without looking and I normally pick my cup up near the bottom.  If using these for beverages, I would try to pick these up near the top, where there is no glitter.

You can also use these cups for table centerpieces.  Add some matching striped or chevron drinking straws (you may have to cut your straws down some) inside the cup, add a few more decorative pieces and you have yourself a nice little centerpiece.  Check out what BBAHomemade done with theirs, below!

These gold glitter cups are so pretty and so festive looking!  They come carefully packaged with wax paper in between each cup, to prevent the glitter from rubbing off inside the other cups, when stacked inside each other.  And don't worry, you won't have to worry about there not being enough glitter on these cups.  When I received mine, there was a generous amount of glitter added to the bottom of these cups and I loved them!

You can check out these cups, as well as other items, by BBAHomemade on Etsy.  BBAHomemade has over 300+ items for you to browse and choose from that range from tons of Fall items, photo props and painted & decorated mason jars.

Create Your Own Personalized Special Occasion Plates with Createurplate

Weddings, birthdays, baby showers and even the holidays.  We want it to all be special, perfect and adding the smallest and unique details seems to make us happy when everything is perfect.  A lot of us women love to have everything color coordinated, organized and everything in its place when the guests arrive. 

One of the ways I have found to personalize a party, to be more exact, a baby shower, is to add customized plates.  Sure, you can have a party with just paper or plastic plates, china or what have ya, but to add someones name and that customized design, that goes with the whole theme of your party...well, that another thing!

These plates, created by me, at Createurplate.com, are for an upcoming baby shower that I am planning in September.  These are very very sturdy disposable plastic plates, that can be personalized with clings.  The clings are individual film like material, that is added to the back of the plate, centered.  I absolutely love these!  Since the baby shower I am hosting is a princess, pink and gold theme, I found the perfect plates to match!

Createurplate.com has tons...and I mean tons..of designs to choose from.  The plates and clings are sold separately.  The plates are available in glass dinner plates, glass salad/dessert plates, disposable dinner plates and disposable salad/dessert plates.  You can order clings for all of your plates or order clings for half of them.  Want a different cling for half the plates?  Why not!  Order clings for half of the plates and another cling for the others!

You can shop Createurplate.com by Everyday Designs, Occasions and Featured Artists.  For birthdays, you can add your precious child's face and wording to a plate!  How cool is that?  Every holiday, occasion, design you can think of, you will find that you can create a plate for that.  

Here are just a few designs you can choose from when thinking about your next holiday or special occasion party!  They range from graduation to tailgating!

Ollieroo 3pcs Flameless LED Candle Lights 12 Color Changing with Remote Control and Timer

Tis the season to jolly! When decorating for Christmas and for the holidays, I think about all the colorful lights I can decorate inside my home, as well as the outside.  I love color when it comes to Christmas lights, as that is what I grew up with as a child.  Decorating the inside of my home usually involves Christmas tree, garland, lights, stockings and any other Christmas decor I have around.  I also l love candles, but those can sometimes be hazardous if left unattended, especially near curtains.

These candles, shown below, are totally the opposite.  I do not have to worry about setting something on fire or becoming a hazard in my home.  These candles are by Ollieroo.  They are LED candles that come with a remote control and timer.  They can be set on one color or multi color, steady lights or a slow flashing mode.  There are 12 different colors, a color for whatever mood you are in.  They are perfect for the holidays, as well as for weddings, party's or just to have around the house.

These LED Candle Lights by Ollieroo resemble a melted wax candle look.  They are smoke free, flame free and worry free.  They have a 4-8 hour timer setting, so you don't have to worry about running down the batteries.  They do require 3 AAA batteries (not included). There is a small switch on the bottom of each candle.  When not in use, it's best to turn this switch to the OFF position.  If you use the remote control to turn the candles off, your batteries are still running.  This will save on your batteries when not in use.

So, if you have a graduation, wedding, banquet events or any other celebration, grab you a few of these to set the mood.  You can get these by visiting Ollierioo on Amazon.  Ollieroo is currently offering FREE SHIPPING!

I_spy Mini Wilreless Spy Tank Rc Car with 0.3mp Hd Camera (White）

Christmas will soon be here before we know it and in the months of November and December, many people will begin shopping for those gifts for family and friends.  I will admit, I haven't begun shopping, not just yet, but I do plan on doing it soon!  Making a list, whether mental or on paper, I'm constantly thinking what the perfect gift would be for each person.  For the adults in my life, it may be jewelry, accessories, hand bags or clothing.  For the little ones, I see dolls, baby items, cars and trucks.

Bo toys &  Gifts has this one toy (if you want to call it a toy) for not only kids, but perfect for adults as well.  It is the i-spy Mini Wireless Spy Tank.  Yep....a spy tank!  This tank looks just like a toy a child would play with, but it also takes videos and pictures.  It can record videos up to 20 minutes and capture lots of pictures.  Have someone you want to spy on?  Hide this little tank in an inconspicuous spot and see what happens.  Now mind you, it only takes a 20 minute video, but you can take photos with it as well, just as long as you choose the Wi-Fi that pops up on your tablet, iPhone or Android phone.  Download the app from Google Play Store or your Apple store and your ready to go!

Set up was very easy.  All I had to do was download the free i-spy Mini Tank app, choose the Wi-Fi that is connected with the car and control the car from my Android device.  The tank has a camera, that you can raise or lower, depending on the level you want to see.  The tank can move forward, backwards, right and left turns.  You can use the arrow buttons on your device or move your device up, down, left or right to move the tank.  I found it easier to use the arrows on my device, as I had better control of the tank.

The photos and videos you take with your i-spy Mini Wireless Spy Tank are stored on your device.  On the open app you are using, there is an option you can click on to view your findings!   This is such a cool gadget, that I played with it for at least an hour.   As you can see in the photos below, I had fun taking photos with this i-spy tank!
