Picnic Time Bamboo Coasters

I am in love with these beautiful two toned Picnic Time Bamboo Coaster. My husband and I are hoping to soon get a new place and have slowly been buying things to help furnish a new home. Of course we already have our essentials, but little things (like coasters) we have had not yet gotten. So when I had the amazing opportunity to #review these amazing #BambooCoasters through #BloggersUnitedOrg I jump right on it. These coasters are made of two toned 100% bamboo and are perfect for hot and cold beverages.The two tones of light and dark bamboo is very pretty and add a little class to any room! I ordered the set of 6 but they also have sets of 12 and sets of 24. They are very simply yet beautiful and perfect for any home!

The Little Mermaid First Birthday Party

Being a mother can be so stressful. Especially when you are a first time mother; endless diapers, wipes, formula, diaper rashes, sleepless nights and so much more. Now to add on to that it is almost time for my daughters first birthday and that means even more stress because of her first birthday party. Who knew that throwing a first birthday party would be so stressful? Not me!

There are so many aspects that go into a party. You need decorations, food, invitations, figuring out who to invite, a space big enough to hold all the guests you invite, a cake, and so much more. But I think my favorite part of all of the planning is it allows me to be as creative as I want! I have always loved The Little Mermaid and I loved the idea of throwing my baby girl The Little Mermaid themed party!

I have been so excited to be able to create something beautiful for my daughter. I started with creating a beautiful birthday card for my princess. It took me awhile to figure out how I wanted it to look. I strolled through hundreds of photos to find the perfect background and even then I ended up changing my mind. I first started off with the card on the right with a water background, but then this beautiful watercolor just popped and I fell in love with it.

What I was most excited for though was creating her birthday outfit. I have seen many beautiful tutu outfits all over Pintrest and Etsy but they were all $40 and up! I was not going to spend that kind of money on a tutu that she would only wear one time. So I decided to give it a go and make it myself. I bought some tulle from Walmart (purple, light blue, dark blue, and a blue/green tulle) at about $0.90 per yard. I bought 3 yards per color, though I did not use all of it. I also bought a crochet top from amazon for around $4. I love how this beautiful tutu has turned out and I can not wait for her birthday for her to be able to wear it finished! I can't wait for November to be her to be able to wear her beautiful outfit!

How was your experience of first birthdays?

Pop Painting By Camilla d'Errico

I have another book review for you today! It is about a book called 'Pop Painting' by: Camilla d'Errico. Here is a little about the book:
Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at the painting tools, methods, and inspirations of one of the top artists working in the growing field of Pop Surrealism. For the first time, beloved best-selling author and artist Camilla d’Errico pulls back the curtain to give you exclusive insights on topics from the paints and brushes she uses and her ideal studio setup, to the dreams, notions, and pop culture icons that fuel the creation of her hauntingly beautiful Pop Surrealist paintings. 

With step-by-step examples covering major subject areas such as humans, animals, melting effects, and twisting reality (essential for Pop Surrealism!), Pop Painting gives you the sensation of sitting by Camilla’s side as she takes her paintings from idea to finished work. This front row seat reveals how a leading artist dreams, paints, and creates a successful body of work. For fans of Camilla and the underground art scene, aspiring artists looking to express their ideals in paint, and experienced artists wanting to incorporate the Pop Surrealist style into their work, Pop Painting is a one-of-a-kind, must-have guide.


I had just started to paint again, and was looking for a book to help inspire me. Camilla d'Errico's Pop Painting was the perfect book for that! The artwork in it is so beautiful, with amazing technique. I loved learning how Camilla d'Errico does her art work and love the 'behind-the-scenes' look into her art. I love that this book has opened a new door into art for me that I had not know was there.

Reviews of Acrylic Paints

I have been wanting to get back into painting. And I am so glad that I did with this Non-Toxic Acrylic paint. To start with I love that this paint is so thick and easy to apply.  Another thing that i really love is you have to pop it open! Some acrylic paints do not have that foil piece and when you open them, it just explodes out, this one does not!

Once you break that little foil piece, it comes out super easy, so you do not have to squeeze and squeeze to get it out! I think my absolute favorite thing about this one though is it dries super quickly! This is nice so I can add layers quickly, without having to wait too long for it to dry. I can not wait to use this paint more!

I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

If you would like to check out this awesome paint set for yourself, here is the link for it: 6 Acrylic Paints & 12 Acrylic Paints

I will be upload more painting soon so stay tuned for those!

Thank you for reading!

Roybens 50s Women Retro Floral Skull One Piece Swimsuit

Its almost summer, and I really needed a new swimsuit. When I saw this one I fell in LOVE with it! I have always loved this style of clothing and knew when I saw it, I had to have it. Before I go into details about how amazing this swimsuit is, here is a little about it:

EYE-CATCHING And ECLECTIC: Bright vibrant colors and hearts, dice, roses, cats, birds, poker, butterfly, flowers, peacock, sugar skulls on it.

GORHEOUS And ADORABLE: The retro style is a sexy cut, vibrant,Boy-Leg. The print is fabulous and the Lined in plaid. The necktie is the perfect length.

EXTREMELY HIGH QUALITY: Super sturdy fabric. The strong fabric is a double layer of EXTREMELY high quality material. It's definitely capable of giving a smooth silhouette and is basically shape wear.

RETRO STYLE:Unique 50s Retro(Vintage) halter classic shape bathing swimsuit. It has an adorable plaid trim around it and all inside, The cut is super feminine and fits well.

MORE SURPRISES: (1)Fun colors, quality fabric and craftsmanship, The push-ups make you boobs look amazing(2) It hugs in the right places and is great for curvy women(3) The suit has two layers so you don't have to worry that it's see-through (4) You cant stop looking at it, there are so many cute things in the design.(5) Sweet heart neckline is very flattering.

So I just want to say again that I love 50s retro style! Especially on this swimsuit. The cut and pattern are beautiful! The style is a classic vintage halter shape bathing suit with a gorgeous print that has hearts, dice, roses, cats, birds, poker, butterfly, flowers, peacock, sugar skulls on it. Also a very beautiful plaid lining inside (I would totally wear it inside out because of how pretty the inside is). The material is so luxurious and feel amazing on my skin! I normally wear a 15-16 so I ordered the XXXL (US 14-16) and I was a little worried that it wasn't going to fit me because of all the reviews saying it was made super small. Well when I tried it on the fabric did make a stretching sound, but fit me beautifully! It made me feel so sexy and beautiful I love it! Definitely a bathing suit I would recommend!
