Mother’s Day Gift Guide: Quarantine Edition

Happy Saturday!!!  Is is actually Saturday, idk, and I actually almost don’t even care.  This has all just become a big blur to me.  One of the things I’m most sad about is that I won’t be able to host my annual Mother’s Day Brunch with my mom, mother in law, and my grandmas.

But, we can all still buy practical and fun gifts to enjoy!  So I rounded up some of my favorites during quarantine.

 

Lets start with the obvious:  We all need a good coffee mug🙂

and Comfies!!  I love this set and this!

Then add the cute and cozy slippers because you know we are all still going to the mailbox!

A quarantine tee, because well, everything is fine!

A really cute t-shirt for lounging or even a zoom!  Comes in a bunch of colors

Self Care Essentials are especially important because even though we love those little humans that made us mothers, we all need Aphukenbrake!!!  By the way, this youtube video literally never gets old.  lol

A candle for bath time, and some lavender scented Epsom salts, trust me!!!

A cute wine glass for when you are enjoying that quiet relaxing bath!

And don’t forget the wine Subscription.  This is my personal favorite, click HERE for $22 off your first order!!!

And for when she(or you because lets be real also shopping for ourselves)gets out of the tub.

Self Tanning drops because we all feel better tan!

The best moisturizer

and lip gloss!  Trust me on this one, its life changing.

Dry shamps incase she(or you) chose not to wash her(your) hair!  This one is only $5 and is fabulous.

A cute necklace because well, we can wear necklaces at home!  This is a great layering one and I love this other one that you can personalize!

Last, don’t forget the comfy chair to put in the corner of her bedroom, family room, or patio!

And the cute cooler to boot!

Parker Thatch is one of my current favorite purses.  I love this denim crossbody and it sure would serve its purpose at the grocery store!

Definitely don’t forget flowers!  Bloomsybox is one of my favorites 💕.

I hope you all have the BEST Mother’s Day!!!  You deserve the world

XOXO-

Stocking Stuffers Gift Guide

Stocking Stuffers, a girls best friend.  lol!  Who doesn’t love stocking stuffers?!?!  At my ripe old age of 38, I basically beg Santa(I mean my mom) to still get us stockings.  It was always my favorite.  I am not sure why because it is usually not anything you need!  But oh so fun!  Here are a few things I pulled together that in my opinion would be the perfect stocking!

What I’m shopping for on Black Friday

If you know you know, but I am not a huge Black Friday shopper.  This stems from my many holidays spent working retail.  However, there are some AWESOME deals so I do like to shop online when I can!  Here are a few things I have been eyeing for a bit just waiting for a sale and I have a feeling…….Black Friday will be the day!!!  Truthfully a lot of the sales have already started so if you are like me and go get your tree on Black Friday, snag some of this now!

I have been wanting to buy AirPods for Dusko because he is on SOOOO many conference calls, etc at work.  Although, I don’t fully trust that he won’t lose them.  lol.  But I have heard they have a ping type thing like the watch so I guess I will go with it for now!!!

We got an Echo Show recently and I want to buy them for everyone on our list!!!  I am in love with it.  If you have a Ring doorbell, it shows up on the screen.  Plus, if you don’t have an Alexa, you NEED one!!  I was definitely late to the party but we use it ALL the time.

I am dying for this new winter VEST, or this VEST.  I am not sure it will go on sale anywhere but I am hoping!!  Fingers Crossed. Maybe Dusko Tadic will see this :).

I would love to add this Mirror to my bedroom!!  I mean, who wouldn’t right?  The 7 foot because I could take mirror selfies in it…lololol.  But really, it is so pretty.  I also love that it comes in gold, silver, and black!

Something I think YOU should buy!!!  Your first pair of Golden Goose Sneakers if you don’t have them yet.  They are magical and I basically wear them everyday!!!!

I am going to stock up on my favorite natural deodorant!!!  It is 20% off on Friday with code:  theblissfulmomma

Last but definitely not least, my favorite skincare and makeup!!!  It is currently on sale for 15% off:)

 

What are you shopping for?!?!?!?!

XOXO,

Lissa

Caripro Electric Toothbrush + Giveaway

Happy end of July!  Can you even believe that?!?  I feel like summer has blown by right before my eyes. I was gifted this Caripro Electric Toothbrush from Smile Brilliant about a month ago. When they reached out I immediately said YES!!!  I have always wanted to purchase an Electric Toothbrush and truthfully don’t know why I haven’t. I am someone that has kind of always had cavities and have been told to buy one before. After using it the first time I seriously felt like I had just left the dentist for a cleaning!!!  It’s amazing, and good news, a month later it still feels like that.

There are 5 different modes on the Toothbrush, I prefer Clean and White. I switch back and forth between them!  The Toothbrush is also set to pause every 30 seconds for 2 mins. This is so you brush for 2 minutes in 30 second intervals in each quadrant of your mouth.  I mean, I’m not going to lie. I doubt I was brushing for 2 full minutes before this Toothbrush!

Shop my PJ’s

One of the other perks of the Caripro is that you can buy new Toothbrush Heads vs. a whole new electric toothbrush!  Click here to check out all the FAQ’s you might need. Use code:  Tweeblog20 for 20% off your purchase by clicking here.

Enter the giveaway HERE to WIN your very own Caripro Electric Toothbrush!!!!

Good Luck!!

 

XOXO,

Lissa

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

 

I have always been one to love celebrating my birthday, I know some people hate getting older. I for one, think life truly gets better and better with age!  Plus, I like a good party!  However, I will admit saying I’m 38, 3-8, sounds really Freaking old!!!  I’m closer to 40 than 30, and can hardly wear heels anymore 🤣. But, You are only as old as you make yourself and I feel more like 25 so whatever 🤣🤣🤣.

It’s so crazy how quickly a year goes by and how much can change. Last year I was starting a new job(working part time from home), and here I am a year later,  I just left my job and am SO excited to spend the summer with my kiddos!  I am constantly reminded how precious life is and how quickly it can be taken. Trying to soak up every second of it!

A special thanks to Patricia Anderson Photography for these AMAZING photos.  They seriously turned out so great and it was a super fun photoshoot!  A good photographer is not always easy to come by and she is the REAL deal!!!

On to the GOOD stuff!!!  Starting today, Sunday, June 9th, 2019, for SEVEN days straight I will be doing one giveaway a day!!!!  Every day at 8am I will post a new giveaway that only runs until midnight CST that night.  The next morning I will announce the winner of the giveaway with the new Giveaway dets for the day!!!  I’m seriously SO excited to do this and hope you are too!!!!

 

GOOD LUCK!!!!

 

XOXO,

Lissa
