Sunkissed Vox Box from Influenster

I was so excited the other day when I received my most recent VoxBox from Influenster.  It was called the Sunkissed VoxBox and it was the best one from them so far!

My Sunkissed VoxBox had the following:

• Dr. Scholl's For Her High Heal Insoles
• Goody Ribbon Elastics
• Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream
• Sinful Shine with Gel Tech nail polish in Mardi Gras

So far the only thing I have been able to try out is the nail polish.  I was really impressed with it!  I love a good manicure but hardly ever paint my nails due to time.  I hate waiting for it to dry and I usually smudge at least one nail which is so infuriating.  I tried it out the other night before I went away and not only did it not take very long to dry, it went on easy and actually still looked good 3 days later.  I will definitely be stocking up on this polish.

As I test out the other products I will let you know what I think.  I will be giving the heal insoles a test this weekend while I am working.  Hope they work cause I will be on my feet a lot!

I'm Back!  So I fell out of the blogosphere for a while, actually, more than a while..a year and a half!  When I was younger and would hear adults say "time flies" I never truly understood saying that until now.  Life is so hectic and juggling everything is such a daunting task some days.  

Around the time I stopped blogging I had started working a bit and I also found out I was pregnant with baby #2.  I stopped having time to do anything or make anything fun worth blogging about.  Over the last few months I have been finding myself wanting to start things back up and share the different projects, products or fitness tips I have been picking up or trying out along the way.

The first time around I was really focused on sharing various recipes and diy projects I had taken on.  Although I do still love to try out new things in the kitchen or tackle a craft, I have also started getting into fitness, health and beauty.

My ideal scenario would be to turn this blog into a community for people with similar interests.  As much as I like to tell people what I am up to or into at that moment, I also love to hear the same from other people.  Looking forward to reviving 52 Social!

Pinterest project gone wrong!

I know I have been completely MIA lately.  Life has been kind of crazy and I haven't been able to do much crafting.  I started working a bit part time and although I am lucky enough to be able to work from home and mostly while my little guy is napping or after he goes to bed, it really limits the amount of time I have for ANYTHING else.

A few weeks ago the girls in my neighborhood got together for another Pinterest party.  Unlike the last project we took on, this one did not work out for me at all.  We decided to try this project at Sarah's Never Ending Projects.  Seemed simple enough and for most of the other girls it did work.  On my first attempt, I did not apply enough Mod Podge on the canvas the and the tissue did not smooth on nicely.  The image was on the canvas in some spots and bubbled in others.  When I tried to rip the tissue off and start over the tissue stuck and would not come off...essentially ruining the canvas.  When I tried to do it a second time the paper got stuck in the printer and the images were printing with weird lines or spots.  Eventually I did get one clean image printed and applied to a second canvas but I ended up hating the way it looked.  I think it is a nice technique for a black and white picture or one in sepia because it would have an old fashion look but I do not think I will ever try again to find out.  There are many other projects that need to be conquered!
