Last Minute Present: Oven Mitt

This is a super easy (and cheap) present that someone who loves baking or cooking would adore! I received this as a gift last year and I was so excited! To top it all off, this present couldn't get any easier, and it could be made for under $10 but is very versatile and can be made as elaborate or simple as you want!

So the basics, you are going to need an oven mitt to put the whole present in, and then a few tools to solidify the cooking theme. I know for a fact the mitt, as well as the tools below, came from Walmart and can be snagged super cheap.

Then you need to fill it with candy and food! In mine she added chocolate chip cookie mix, hot chocolate mix, and candy canes. Super simple right? And definitely something you could run to Walmart right now and put together.

Like I said before, there are many variations you could do with this present! My mom has a wood burning tool and can burn designs into wooden spoons and cutting boards, so that would be a really cool and personal edition to this present. My dad made this for his coworkers and left out the cookie mix but added more candy. I made this for someone for their wedding and added jars with chalkboard labels, measuring spoons and cups, all in a basket! It was more expensive, but super cute! You can go a number of ways with this, and all of them are cute and easy, and if given to the right person they will love it!

Walmart Box: Spring

Out of school and back to Wednesday posts! And we are kicking off this extra posting day with... The new Spring Walmart Box! I know I always post these pretty late, and I don't know why, because I really do love them! And for $5? You really can't beat it! This is the Dove Advanced Care deodorant in a scent very similar to the cucumber scent that everyone used to be crazy over in the 90s... I was sick of it then, but it was kind of nice to have a little throwback sample! I've used the heck out of it and it has held up well! This is the Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Ultra Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner. It is made to intensely hydrate and soften hair. I am always looking for new baby shampoo and conditioners to take with me on trips! This is the Bioré Baking Soda Acne Scrub. At some other point I had received the pore cleansing scrub, and I am very interested in what the difference is, if there is one. What I mostly remember about the other one

My Petal Club

A new box! And a PERIOD subscription box at that! I love finding new boxes to try out, especially when they are this affordable! This box is normally $6.99 per month, but if you use the discount code "SUMMER" on mypetalclub.com , this box will be only $3.50! And let's be honest, one box of pads/tampons is usually more expensive than that, so why not give it a try?? So this box primarily consists of just the period products with very few extras. This isn't one of the present, feel-good kind of boxes, it just provides you with the necessary products to get through the month, at an affordable price. Step One The first thing you do on their website is choose the combination of products you will need. Be warned, you aren't given as much of a selection if you order through Cratejoy like I did. It worked totally fine and I still got the products I needed, but I like choice! So I suggest going straight through their website. You are going to get

St. Ives Influenster VoxBox

Good news, I received another Influenster VoxBox!! This was a Holiday campaign following New Years, and was sponsored by St. Ives. Now as always, I did receive these products for reviewing purposes, but all opinions are completely my own! Oatmeal Scrub and Mask If you are used to their ever popular Apricot Scrub, this is quite a different experience. Where the Apricot Scrub has large abrasive pieces, the Oatmeal Scrub has smaller and gentler pieces, but significantly more of them. This also has a much thicker and stickier consistency, with a smell that is reminiscent of sunscreen. The way I chose to use this was as a mask. I applied a generous amount to my face, rubbing in circular motions, making sure it was fully scrubbed and evenly covered. The bottle recommends letting it soak in for 5-7 minutes. After the lime elapsed, I put some water on my fingers and rewet the mask, scrubbing in circular motions once again, and then rinsed! This was the 6 oz bottle, which re
