Wax Melts Review!

So I decided to take a little adventure onto Etsy and see what all sorts of awesome wax melts I can come across while waiting to order for a certain company (that will be featured in a blog here in the future) to restock. I stumbled across a cute brand called 3SisCountryShop. I wanted something cheap but would smell good The reviews on them was very positive so I decided to order a pumpkin Cheesecake Clamshell since it is Autumn and I want to get into the festive mood even more. So I paid roughly $6 for it and my wait began.

Am I the only one who feels like once you click the order button it's suppose to be right at your door? It is a sad habit of mine but I just get WAY to excited over things! So they came in about 6 days after ordering which is a pretty decent amount of time.

I opened my mail box and could smell a fresh clean smell which made me very confused. I took my package inside and opened it to find  my order and a cute little sample of April Fresh Downy Type! Sadly I live in FL so they melted but they still look like they will smell amazing! I am super excited to try these out! They didn't leave any instructions on letting them cure or anything but to be safe since they did melt I am going to wait til tomorrow to try them out. Hopefully they work out as wonderful as I hope!

Pumpkin Cheesecake Review!

So I opened this when I first got it to see it melted hints why it looks a little funky. You can smell the scent within two seconds of pulling off the lid and it smells amazing! It makes me feel like it's a cool Autumn evening watching the leaves fall to the ground. This made me super excited! The wax is soy so it does have a very soft texture unlike normal candle wax. It feel like it is able to be molded. So now time to test it out!

This is my wax warmer. It has become my best friend over the years! So as you can see it is all melted up and it smells amazing! It gives me the same Autumn feeling that it did in the package. The only down side I can find is that the smell doesn't reach to far in the house. It covers most of my living room though so that is a plus considering that's where it is stationed at,


I truly believe that the sample should work the same because it is made by the same people just a different scent. I am going to be saving this for when my in-laws come over so my living room smells fresh and clean!! So overall I do like these a lot. They are super cute and smell pretty decent!

It's Fall Y'all!! (Cheap Decor Ideas and more!)

Hey everyone! I am super excited because it is officially Autumn! I can now have my house decorated and using all sorts of Fall themed wax without my husband thinking I have lost my head. Anyways today I want to show you guys all of my very simple and cheap DIY Autumn/Halloween Decor. Autumn always gets me excited because it is the start of all the fun decorating and yummy foods to come! So enough of me pouring my love into this season and time to get started on what you came here for!

1. Candle Holders

Okay these are so easy to make as well! I bought to candle holders from Family Dollar ($1 each) then hot glued some leaves($1 at Dollar Tree) inside of it on the top lip so you couldn't see the glue and BAM you are done! SO easy to make and it looks beautiful if you ask me! Perfect for a Dinning Room Table!

2. Mini Wreath!

I bought a foam circle from Walmart for about two dollars I believe. I had some burlap form a while back so I just wrapped the ring and hot glued it together. Then I added some leaves to it! So simple and tiny but beautiful at the same time.

3. Simple Wall Hanger.

Okay this was about three dollars at Walmart I believe but not sure because my husband bought it for me as a surprise. He understands my fall obsession.

5. Sugar Skull Pen Holder

This is for my sugar skull obsession. My mother-in-law bought me this cup last year for Mother's Day but I keep it put up til Halloween. It usually is my Apple Cider cup but this year I wanted it to be more of a focal point so it became my pen holder.

6. Sugar Skull Pot Holder.

This came with an oven mitt which is pictured as well! This are so beautiful and colorful! I love how they add more sugar skulls into my house. Roughly $3 at Walmart. They work so well!!!

7. Sugar Skull Window Clings!

Okay so as you can see my kitchen has a whole Sugar Skull theme going on. It wouldn't be complete without the window clings! These are only a dollar at the dollar store. These will look amazing to finish off my sugar skull obsession room!

8. Cookies!

How can it be fall without these yummy things?!?! So they are about $3 at Walmart as well. Super yummy and very pretty to set out for company. I loves these cookies to death and get super excited when I see them out each year!

9. My Living Room Center Piece.

 I am in love with this arrangement. It is so simple yet so beautiful and makes everything look amazing! It was very simple to create. I bought a vase from Dollar General ($2) I had burlap already at my house from a while back but I believed I bought it at Walmart as well as the burlap flower. I got sticks from outside (Free) Sunflowers from the Dollar Tree ($1) and some leaves from the Dollar Tree ($1) The filler inside the vase is heart shaped cut out fall color paper. This was some more items I just happen to have on hand. It warms my heart to look at it and see how beautiful it makes my living room.

10. Pinterest Leaf Bowl

So I found this idea on Pinterest and I had to try it! So basically all you do is blow a balloon up, modpodge leaves to it and let it dry. So simple and It came out okay. At first I tried doing it with just basic school glue. It worked but I wanted it to be a little more harder so I layered the outside with modpodge to be safe. I should of just modpodged the whole thing but it is still adorable and looks cute in my little window out to my living room!

So these are just some very cute and simple ways to Fall up your home! It's all about having fun and just making your home feel more like the season. I am super excited to get more into the holidays!!

Apple Cinnamon Crisp Smoothie

Hey everyone! How is your Monday going? Okay so I wanted to do something a little different here lately. When I first started my blog I wanted to do a "Fat Girl Friday" post with super yummy foods! Well as time went by I was more into make up and completely forgot about my food part! Since I am on this new health kick (for how ever long I decide to try it this time lol) I wanted to share a recipe that was healthy and really yummy!

Apple Cinnamon Crisp Smoothie!

Who doesn't love anything with apple and cinnamon. With fall around the corner and I figured since everyone will soon be on the pumpkin craze (I myself will be as well) that I needed to make something for the ani-pumpkin people that was really yummy! I wanted to make it healthy though so here we go!

You will need the following:

1 Green Apple

1 1/2 cups of Silk soy milk (vanilla)

1/4 cup of Quacker Oats

3 dashes of Cinnamon 

Ice (Cartoon Character cup sized)

Tools:

Blender

Cup to put smoothie in

Okay so this is SOO easy to make and really yummy. This is for more of a thicker type of smoothie. I like mine thick, if you perfer a thinner one then add some more soy milk to it. 

Peel and cut up the apple into small pieces, place into blender and dash on the cinnamon.

Add a character cup full of ice into it (these cups are like .88 at Walmart. My daughter has a horrible habit of chewing on them though.)

Add your Oats!

Then pour on the milk and blend!

Pour into a glass and rink it down!

See how easy this was?!?! Super easy and really yummy! I am on a smoothie kick though so be prepared to see lots more of these bad boys coming onto this blog!
