Lotso Ears From Make Me Minnie On Etsy!

I am so excited to be sharing this product with you all today. You all know I have a huge love for Disney and I always get extremely excited when I am given the chance to review Disney products for you all. Today we will be taking a closer look at Minnie ears from an Etsy shop called Make Me Minnie. I was lucky enough for her to send me an adorable pair of ears that I am absolutely in love with!

If any of you are familiar with Disney World, then you probably know all about Minnie Ears. They are extremely popular when visiting any of the Disney parks and most guests tend to wear them one visiting. I know when I attend Disney that ears are definitely one of my essentials for sure. I make sure I have a pair to match my outfits. 

Disney World does have some that you can buy at their parks but I have never been a fan of them for a few reasons. They only have a select few to choose from and the ones that they do have I feel like everyone else wears them as well. I like standing out which is why I love these ears that she chose to send to me. I am obsessed with them. I love how different these are.

In case you couldn't tell these ears are based on a character from one of my favorite Disney movies, Toy Story. I'm sure the first picture posted in this blog post gave it away lol, Oh well! These are based on Lotso, which is truly one of my favorites! I was immediately drawn to these ears when I seen them posted on her site. I love how unique these are for sure.

I feel like lotso is one of those characters that isn't on a lot of merchandise and when I do find stuff with him on it I always tend to buy it lol. I think these ears are spot on to what he looks like for sure. He looks just like these ears doo! Even the fur on these ears looks just like his does! I am truly amazed. I love how comfortable these ears are to wear as well. I am a huge fan of ears like I said earlier but it's all about comfort for me. If they don't feel comfortable on my head then I wont wear them. I have had no issues with these at all. They are super light weight, and I can barely even feel them when I am wearing them. I have worn these a few times since I got them and I have gotten so many compliments on them too!!

Hands down one of my favorite pairs of ears that I own and that says a lot consdering I have such a huge collection of my own. I would like to thank Make me Minnie for being a part of my blog and sending me these pair of ears to share with you all. Make sure you check out her link down below and have a look at all the adorable and creative ears that she has listed in her shop!

Triangle Peg Game Review from Rustic Trail Crafts on Etsy!

Today we will be taking a closer look at a very unique Etsy store. I am so excited to be sharing this shop with you. The name of this shop is Rustic Trail Crafts. This shop is really cool and totally caught my eye when I was browsing on Etsy recently. If you are familiar with the restaurant Cracker Barrel you are going to know exactly what these little games are. When I was little this is where I was introduced to this game to be honest with you. It's pretty much a version on checkers but you play it alone. You are given a peg board with pegs in it. There is one missing peg and you use the others to "jump". Its a very easy concept and the goal of the game is to be able to jump all the pegs so you are left with none at the end. It's really a fun and simple game to play. I remember playing it a lot as a child.

So when I seen this shop I just knew I would love to review on of their games for them. The game that they sent me to review  is one that is made out of 9mm bullets. This really caught my eye because usually when I seen these games they were only made out of golf tees's I've never seen someone take their own approach on these. Which really makes these one of a find for sure.

These are hand made which is another reason why I love them. You can really see the craftsmen ship that has gone into each game. I am super impressed with the quaulity of these. The wood alone for these are just gorgeous.

Another awesome thing that is included with the purchase of these is instructions on how to play the game in case you plan on gifting this to someone and you are unsure if they are familiar with this game or not. I am so glad they included this as well. It's just something small, but I am absolutely terrible at explaining things so this really does help me out a whole bunch for sure!

In conclusion I have nothing bad to say at all about this product. I am truly blown away with the craftsmen ship. I love how simple this is but could be such a personal gift to someone, or even yourself. I plan on keeping mine of my coffee table. It's a great simple game for you, or even your guests that come over can pick up and play. I have had this in my living room since Christmas time and it definitely is  a conversation starter for sure, and then it always turns into a competition on who will have the least amount of pegs left over. lol

I want to thank  Rustic Trail Crafts for being a part of my blog and sending me this product to review. I absolutely love it and I am so excited to own this. I hope you all take the time to check out their shop listed below:

Herbal Chest Product Review!

Today I will be sharing with you two amazing products from the shop Herbal Chest. This is an etsy shop that makes a whole line of bath and body products with the best ingredients. Everything is hand made and made with love :) Her shop is filled with all kinds of products, she has something for pretty much everyone which is awesome. I was lucky enough to receive two of her products to share with you all today

 

First let's talk about the packaging of this products. It looks so adorable. She placed the two items in a small drawstring bag which looks fabulous! This would make an awesome gift and that's for sure. I love how she takes the time to package her products and just doesn't throw them all together in the box and call it a day. She makes sure everything looks perfect before placing it in the box which is a great quality for a shop owner to have and that's for sure.

 

 The first product that I will be sharing with you all is a Lavender cuticle butter. This is beyond perfect for me right now. I live in Florida and its now starting to get chilly here and my skin gets sooo dry with the weather change especially my hands and cuticles. I also really enjoy the smell of lavender too. The scent is not too over powering it's just enough and it smells just so refreshing. I also love how the packaging for this is super small. I have been keeping this in my purse and I think its perfect for that. It's super compact so you can carry it with you. I loveeeee this product. It is super moisturizing and makes my cuticles feel super refreshed and brand new pretty much. I would give this product a 5/5 for sure! 

I also love how listed on her site she includes the ingredients for each one. I will list them below in case you are curious as well :)

"Cupuacu Butter, Mango Butter, Cocoa Butter, Jojoba Oil, Sunflower Oil, Lavender Infused Olive Oil, Beeswax, Lavender Essential Oil, Grapefruit Essential Oil, Vitamin E Oil"

 https://www.etsy.com/listing/501993830/lavender-cuticle-butter-cuticle-cream?ga_search_query=cuticle&ref=shop_items_search_2

Retails:($8.85) 

Next up we have Tranquil Lavender which is an essential oil perfume blend. I am beyond obsessed with essential oils lately. I have been super fascinated with learning about them as well lately. It's been so interesting to learn what each essential oil is good for and what it helps you with. This oil is blend of Lavender, Grapefruit, Sweet Marjoram, Peppermint in nourishing Jojoba Oil. Which smells amazing. I get super relaxed when I smell this and I just love it. I love how these are placed in roller ball so they can be easily applied to the skin. I have been using this for the past 2 nights right before going to bed and I feel like its really been helping me. I get so relaxed and it just makes it more easy for me to fall asleep at night. Overall I am obsessed with this product too!

Retails:($11.50)

So that's it for this review guys. I tried out two products from Herbal Chest and I loved both of them so much! I think that you guys should definitely check her shop out and find something for yourself. Like I said earlier she has a huge array of products that would be great for truly anyone I am just certain you will find something that you truly love as well!

I would now like to thank Herbal Chest for sending me some amazing products to try. I am blown away with your quality of products and your customer services everything has been extraordinary and I wish you nothing but the best. Thank you again!

Disney Christmas Kitchen Set Review from MrsTMagicCreations

Today I have another Christmas item to share with you today. This one comes from MrsTMagicCreations. This is a kitchen set that she custom made for the holidays and it's just adorable. Of course it's Disney too! You all know how much I love my Disney items. I just seen these and instanly fell in love with them! This kitchen set features two pot  holders and dish rack. This listing is no longer available on her site but she has tons of others that are. This is just to give you an idea on what she offers in her shop!

The first item that I will talk about is the dish rag. As you can see there are so many details on this rag it is pretty incredible. I love how the whole towel is cover in something. This definitely screams Disney Christmas and that's totally the truth. I love the design of this one. It is an adorable Minnie Mouse gingerbread house. I think the design is so creative and it's truly beautiful. 

 

Next up we have the Mickey gingerbread man pot holder. How adorable is this? It matches perfectly with the towel and I love the way this one looks. This one is more simple compared to the towel but it is still really cute. I think this is so perfect for the holidays I love how they look in my kitchen it just adds the perfect finishing touch to your kitchen to give it that extra Disney Christmas feel

The last thing included in this set is an oven mit. This one is just plan but it matches the towel, and the other pot holder. I actually like how this one is plan it kind of balances the whole set out and isnt too over the top if you know what I mean. I really love how it matches with the 2 other pieces. I mean I have so much kitchen stuff and nothing matches lol. It's nice to have a matching set even if its just for the holidays :) lol.

 

I am blown away with the quality of these pieces for my kitchen they are super adorable and you can tell a lot of time was put into making these and it truly shows in her work. Everything listed in her shop is truly adorable. I am so glad I was able to find this Etsy shop and discover these just in time for the holidays :) I hope to work with her again in the future and show you  guys so more stuff from this amazing shop!

Disney Home Sign From Katies Sunshine Shop! Review

 

 

Today I will be sharing with you all probably one of my favorite new decor pieces I have in my house. If anyone knows me then you know I am a Disney fanatic. I am beyond obsessed with Disney and I tend to go to Disney World as frequent as I can. I am an annual pass holder and I try to get there at least 2 times a month. I absolutely love it. I go so often I truly consider Disney my 2nd home at heart. Which is why this piece that I found is just absolutely perfect for me!

I stumbled upon her Etsy store and I immediately fell in love with everything that she has posted on her site. If Disney isnt really your thang, then done worry. This shop offers a huge range of different signs that are perfect for pretty much any home decor you might already have. I had to pick this one just because it's so perfect for me!

 

So not only does this sign look fabulous! It is super sturdy and is made out of really nice wood. You can tell this shop owner truly takes time into making these pieces. These signs are hand painted and not just stuck with vinyl which really makes a huge difference as well. In the photos it's kind of hard to tell but the castle is actually sprinkled with "Pixie Dust". It looks beautiful and it was seriously one of the best finishing touches she could have done to make this piece look more perfect! Another awesome thing about this piece is that not one sign will look just like another. All the wood pieces she has are all different and they have different markings and knots on them which really make them stand out from one another.

 

If you are purchasing this sign the dimensions for this particular one is " 9-1/4" x 24" x 3/4". Its really the perfect size. I hung this right next to my front door and I just love it! These signs come with hardware already attached which is a huge extra  bonus for me! I'm terrible when it comes to just hanging things up, and this just eliminates a whole step for me which is awesome!

 

Final thoughts on Katie's Sunshine Shop? I am blown away. The piece is truly amazing. I love the design. I love how it looks in my home. I love how it gives me a little Disney touch to my home. I love how durable it is. I can tell I am going to have this sign forever. I have nothing bad to say at all about this sign, or this shop. I am blown away with everything. The shop owner Katie is also super friendly and helpful as well. 

I would now like to thanks Katie's Sunshine Shop for being included in my blog! I wish you the best and I am so honored to have included such an amazing shop!

Mario Coasters Review from The Rogue Streak -Review

Today I have another very unique item that I am really excited to share with you all. I have a great gift that would be pretty much perfect for anyone. These are custom coasters from an etsy shop by the name of The Rogue Streak. This is a pretty awesome etsy shop I must say. The owner of the Rogue Streak is Dana and she is based out of Kentucky. She sent me one of her top selling coaster sets which is Mario themed. I am pretty much obsessed with these. I have been looking for coasters for my home for quite some time and these are just perfect. I am actually truly amazed with the quality of these coasters and that's for sure! Not only do these coasters look really nice, they are actually really durable too! I was also really impressed with the how she packed these up for me. Honestly when this package arrived on my front door I had no idea what it was lol. The box was superrrrr heavy and it also took me a few minutes to open everything.

She packaged up everything amazing! The coasters were wrapped up so nicely, there was no possible way that these were going to get destroyed in transit to me. Not only was everything very protected it was also very neat and put together beautifully. She included a hand written card which was very nice too! She also threw some candy in there too which is always a nice little bonus lol.

If Mario isnt your thang then dont worry she has plenty of other coasters to choose from on her website that would probably be more appealing for you. Personally I don't see how you couldn't love Mario! I am  beyond obsessed Mario was a HUGE part of my childhood so when I seen these listed on her site I knew that I had to make them mine!

Lets get into the details on these coasters. She sells these coasters in sets of 4 and 6. The one that i received to review is in a set of 5. The listing price is only $16.00 and when you break that down it comes out to be only $3.20 each which is insanely reasonable! These are home made and you cant even find great prices like this in a store. I think my favorite little "feature" about these coasters are the felt feet placed on the back of each coaster. This way you dont have t worry about these scratching the surface that you plan oon using these with.

Included in my box was also a hand made ornament! These you can add on to any order that you have with this shop. These are adorable little ornaments that will look amazing on your Christmas tree.  She also has a huge variety of these on her Etsy shop too. All the proceeds to these ornaments are going to a family in need this holiday so make sure you check those out too! I am really in love with my ornament I think it adds the perfect finishing touch to my tree and I love the style of this ornament as well. You truly can't find ornaments like these in the store either.

I know when you see things listed online you become hesitant to purchase them because you cant really hold and feel what these products are like in real life.  But I am here to assure you that these products are amazing. I am really impressed with these coasters and they are beautiful as well. I know for a fact that I will have these for a long time. If you are looking for Christmas gifts for friends or family these might be the perfect thing to get for them!

I would now like to thank the Rogue Streak for being featured on my blog. I really hope all of you take the time to check out her Etsy shop even if you don't plan on buying anything!

Custom Dog Ornament Review from TheSawdustBoutique

Today I will be sharing with you something I am pretty excited about! It is a custom ornament made from a etsy shop called  TheSawdustBoutique. This shop is pretty amazing. It is filled with tons of different items all hand made out of wood! I thought now would be the perfect opportunity to review an ornament for you! No matter what breed your dog is they can find something that looks pretty darn close to your pooch! My boyfriend and I just got our dog this past August and we wanted a ornament for our tree this year to symbolize him since he is such a huge part of our lives!

Hershey is the name of our pup, and not only do they personalize it to took like your breed of dog but they also carve your dogs name in the ornament as well which is just perfect in my opinion. This is a pretty simple ornament but I absolutely love it. I love how custom it is and I can probably bet you that nobody will have this same ornament.

The ribbon that they use to make these ornaments has dog paw prints all over it. This is truly the perfect finishing touch for this pup ornament. I think it goes with it perfectly!

I am truly so happy with how this ornament came out and I can't ask for anything more to be honest. The shop owner is also extremely nice and helpful. They have tons of other things listed in their shop as well if this doesn't interest you. I would not like to thank  TheSawdustBoutique for being featured on my blog. I will make sure to include their shop link below to check out their shop!

StarSeventeenStudio- Donut String Art Review

This is probably the coolest piece of art I have yet to receive and share with you all here on my blog. This piece is from an Etsy shop called StarSeventeenStudio This shop immediately caught my eye when I was browsing my favorite place (Etsy of course). This shop owner is super talented and makes pieces of art that I have never seen anything like before. She creates these art pieces made entirely out of string. I have no idea how she even does it but I am truly blown away. I looked through her shop several times and I love how much of a variety that she has. She really has something for everyone which is really neat. When we chatted about me reviewing something for my blog. She told me she wanted to do something custom just for me which got me extremely excited. I mean honestly I would have been happy with any of the pieces that she sent to me that are posted in her shop but she went that extra mile and truly wanted to make me happy and make me something that she hasn't made for anyone else yet which is pretty freaking awesome. When she told me she wanted to make me something custom I had soooooo many ideas flowing through my brain. Then it finally came to me. I just moved in my own place this past April and my theme for my kitchen currently is donuts(don't judge). I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get a decor peice for my kitchen. You actually wouldn't believe how hard it is to find donut stuff. I left it at that. I didnt tell her anything else just that I wanted something donuts. Boy oh boy did she really blow me away....

Lets start with the packaging of my donut art. When I received this in my mail to be honest I didn't even know it was this! The package was sooo big and so heavy I really didn't expect that to be inside of it. She took her time wrapping this bad boy up pretty damn good. There was literally no way that this thang could have broke in the  mail and she made sure that was not an option lol When I opened it for the first time it did take a little bit of time because there was sooo many layers of bubble wrap lol. I was actually really impressed with how well this was packaged and wasn't expecting it to be this well protected.

When I seen this for the first time I was so impressed. My first impression was "OH MY GOD!, HOW DID SHE EVEN DO THIS???". I have yet to ask her btw lol. Anyways I was super blown away with the end result she did an over the top and beautiful job. This seriously looks like something you would pay top dollar for at a home decor shop.  I seriously love the design that she made for me too. I think it matches beautifully with my kitchen decor too! I am obsessed with this by far. I placed it on my kitchen counter and I have  received so many compliments on it so far. 

The quality of this piece is outstanding as well. I could sit her all day and tell you how beautiful it looks. But whats also is important is the quality. If your paying for something you want it to hold up. I have no doubt in my mind that this product wont hold up for me. It is made out of really thick wood thats very heavy and the nails are placed in super deep so I dont have to worry about them coming out or anything like that for sure. I am super pleased with this product and I know for a fact I'm going to have this for a long time!

I have nothing negative to say about this shop at all. I am pleased with how everything came out. The product is beautiful, and durable. The shop owner was also a pleasure to work with. She is extremley nice and I am so glad I got to work  with her.

I would like to thank StarSeventeenStudio for being a part of my blog!

Sara The Tick Lady! Review

 

Sara The Tick Lady is the name of the online Etsy store I will be reviewing for you all today. This is an online store that sells a ton of stickers for your planner. She sells a large assortment of these stickers and even makes custom ones for your own planner. Whatever your in the market for I'm sure Sara could hook you right up! I have worked with her in the past and I will make sure to include the link to my previous blog post with my other review of her shop.

 

 

Sara was kind enough to send me two sheet of stickers from her shop. These stickers are pretty similar but they also are a little different as well. The first sheet of stickers I will be showing you all today are these Saint Patrick's Day ones! These are a count down to the Holiday and I love these! There are 12 stickers on this sheet. This is the perfect way to get your planner in the mode for Saint Patrick's Day. The design of these stickers feature a rainbow background followed with big shamrocks! I think these are beyond perfect! I love how much color is on these stickers, it will definitely liven up your planner which is always fun! I guess you could call me a planner freak lol. I love making my planner look very neat, and organized and fun as well and with these stickers they really do the job!

Retails:($2.00)

 

The next sheet of stickers has the same kind of theme as the St Patty's Day ones, except these are Easter. I think these are just as adorable as well. I love these because through out the countdown it switches between eastern eggs and Easter bunnies. I love the colors in these too, super colorful and bright. They have the same rainbow background as the St Patty's Day ones which really pops when you place it on white paper. I think the best thing about these stickers are that they are made on paper and not plastic. I hate plastic stickers because they always seem to peel up from the paper, but I can assure you that isn't the case with these. Once you place these down there is no hope in getting them up which is great.

Crafty Toucan Shop! Review

 

I have another exciting review for all of you today! This one is extra special because this has a St Patty's theme to it! I am very excited to share this product with you right before we get into St Patty's Day! This is my first St Patty's Day item I will be reviewing for all of you as well. The shop that sent me this item is called the Crafty Toucan Shop, which is on Etsy. I have worked with this shop before and I am super impressed with the quality of her products Cathy is super friendly and helpful when it comes to her shop so make sure you check out her shop....after you continue reading this review of course lol.

 

... I now apologize for the amount of times that I will say St Patrick's Day/ St Patty's Day in this review lol. Please bare with me.

 

 

The item that she sent me this time is this adorable bottle opener, which will be perfect for all the beer drinking that goes down on St Patrick's Day lol. I love how she combined the two into one piece. I think that was very clever of her to do so. Not only is the piece super functional and handy it also adds a lot of décor to the room. I love how simple this piece is, but it really does add a lot of jazz! I placed this on my counter and I am surprised with how much I love this. I am going to be so sad when I have to pack this away after St Patrick's Day, but it will for sure give me something to look forward to till next year and that's for sure.

Retails:($49.99)

 

Let me get into the full description of this item next for all of you. She made this bottle opener with a piece of wood that she painted this gorgeous green color. It's not a super loud green, which is what I like. This is perfect because I'm not a huge fan of that typical St Patty's Day color. This color is much more bearable for me lol. On top of this green board she burned this design into the board. I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with wood burning. I know I have heard of it before but I never really learned anything about it, or have ever seen  finished product of one either. I never realized how cool these pieces could be until now.

 

The design she chose is just perfect. It really does scream St Patty's Day and I just love it. I love how the design that she chose not only has an actual character on it, it also contains some St Patty phrases. She did such an incredible job at burning this design into the wood. It really does look perfect. I don't see any flaws in the design either which is really impressive to me. I'm sure this is a very long and tedious process to do, but she really blew this one away.

 

On top on the board she attached a bottle opener. I love the one she chose for this board, it has a sort of rustic feel to it. It looks rusty, and it just looks unique. This really makes the color pop against the green board. I love the contrast of these two colors together. They really do look amazing together.

 

This is such a simple idea but I absolutely adore it. It is such a hit in my house and I cant believe how much we are really using it. It's super helpful and really cute as well... which is important. I love how versatile it is as well. You could easily hang this on the wall of have in your counter. I currently have this sitting on top of my kitchen counter and have it leaning against the wall.

 

I want to thank Cathy for sending me this to review. I highly recommend checking this shop out, and if you are interested in a piece like this contact Cathy it might be too late to get a St Patty's Day one but she makes other custom pieces an who knows maybe you can get one for the next Holiday that is approaching....lets face it, it will be here before we know it!
