It totally worked because when it came time to watch the ballet, she knew what was going on and really enjoyed the experience. Fast forward to this year, both girls just want to sit and play with these tiny nutcracker ornaments at the bottom…

In the spirit of giving, I wanted to share the most beautiful wrapping paper I found from Dogwood Hill.

Laptop Sun Shade

I’ve been stuck in my car trying to get work done through glare more times than I can count. So, when I spotted this laptop sun shade on @things.i.bought.and.liked’s stories, I immediately purchased it. It protects your laptop from heat and glare so you can work anywhere (yes, even poolside). How did I not know about this sooner?!

Downy Wrinkle Release Spray

I don’t mind doing laundry, but I do mind ironing laundry. Here’s my secret weapon: Wrinkle Release Spray from Downy. I’ve shared this in the past but it bears repeating because it really is amazing AND I recently discovered a new use for it when making the bed. De-wrinkling sheets and duvet covers is the literal bane of my existence but with a few spritzes of this spray and a tug on each corner and edge, your bed looks hotel-worthy, crisp and wrinkle-free.
