4 Easy Winter Shaving Hacks for Busy Moms Using JOHNSON’S® Baby Products

Silky hair, boots and scarves on repeat and sandpaper skin…must be winter in Florida. While it certainly is beginning to feel like “the most wonderful time of the year,” it’s also the one time of year when I miss Florida’s humidity. My skin is crying in pain – especially when it’s time to shave. And guess who’s out of shaving supplies…again. *SIGH.* But this busy mom has some skills when it comes to avoiding my 10th grocery store run this week. I have a stash of baby products to the rescue. Don’t let dry legs and lack of pampering supplies stop you from getting the best shave this winter. Today I’m using my daughter’s JOHNSON’S® baby products to share 4 Easy Winter Shaving Hacks for Busy Moms.

EASY Harry Potter Wands DIY for Under $2

My son wanted a Harry Potter birthday party for his 9th birthday. I know, I couldn’t be more proud. But creating a birthday party based on one of the most epic book and movie series EV-AH…not an easy feat, especially when you’re a crafty Type-A perfectionist with about 1 million amazing ideas. But travel and a crunched time frame forced me to focus on the absolute Harry Potter birthday party must haves. Case in point – wands. You cannot have a party without the wands.

But have you been to Universal’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter lately? I keep seeing the prices climb – last time I checked over $45 per interactive wand. Did you have a slight heart attack? Yeah, me too. Not being able to afford such an amazing party favor for our guests, I did the next best thing, make my own Harry Potter wands. These Easy Harry Potter Wands DIY for under $2 a pop will have your guests thinking you really brought the magic to the birthday party, with a slight Asian flair 🙂

Wicked Apple Gift Box DIY (And Purse!)

Celebrate that special kid birthday with this Wicked Apple Gift Box DIY (and purse!). I was asked to participate in the #HallmarkAtWalgreens campaign, sponsored by Walgreens. Although I have been compensated, all opinions are my own.

Descendants kids craft

Wicked Apple Gift Box DIY (And Purse!)

I’ve never seen my son so excited. This summer he met a girl (yes, a girl!) that he became instant best friends with. It’s been magical to watch their kindred friendship bloom. Constant chatter, bursts of laughter, and in “cahoots” about everything – these two are inseparable. So you can imagine the screaming that occurred when he heard that his friend’s birthday was coming up. He got downright serious when he told me, “We have to make her birthday a good one, Mom.”

How can I let that kid down with a request like that? I can’t! Kids birthdays are so special, especially at this age when those birthday memories last a lifetime. That’s why we go all out for the special family and friends in our lives. Knowing that his friend is a big Disney Descendants 2 fan, we knew that a DIY Descendants 2-inspired gift box would be a fun way to celebrate. Find out how to make your child’s next birthday wickedly fun with this Wicked Apple Gift Box DIY (that doubles as a purse!) and how we made this little girl’s birthday extra special with the perfect Hallmark card at Walgreens.
