Dear D'Arcy

Hair wand Tips

Do YOU have stick straight hair that does NOT HOLD a curl? ME too! My hair is silky straight and as a kid the only way I could have curly hair was to sleep in sponge roller’s! (remember those?) I even tried a perm and….that didn’t even take!  So you can imagine how excited I was when I learned about Nume’ wands. Professional curling wands made of 100% tourmaline ceramic and heats up to 410 degrees. The high heat adds a curl that last ALL day and even into the next day without damaging my hair. ( I do only use 1-2 times a week)  These wands are expensive but are worth it for the results they give. The Price range is from $139-169 but I found a code for you to use to SAVE 35% FALL35 off everything online www.numeusa.com (in NO way is this sponsored)   I own 3 wands and these are the results below from each wand… I use the 25 mm the most! Each wand come with a glove and a tip sheet and you can pick you color.

It’s that time🎄 we’re setting up Christmas Trees 🎄 🎄🎄

Everyone needs little tips to get things ready for the Holiday’s✔️

Here’s how it’s done…. Grab your Boy’s/Men✔️✔️✔️Done

Who am I Kidding😂😂😂
We know who does it all!🤣😂

I’ll jokes aside, 😉 my boys do help if I ask, however..like most of the mamas I know we get it done on our own. 

Mostly, because we do it when we feel inspired, have time or just want it done OUR way, whatever your reason, Good for you✔️🎄

You mamas out there work really hard to create the magic of Christmas for your families and know even thought you sometimes don’t think they care or that it matters…. 
Let me tell you as a mama to grown boys♥️ It matters, building memories matters and they remember  the small things. 

TRUST me they notice, they may not say anything, until you don’t do it or did it differently ♥️♥️♥️😉

(Please note this is just mom humor) 
My boys do set up the 15 foot fake tree for me… That is not a job for mamas!!

Our Trees & garlands are @kingsofchristmas

Happy Sunday Pretty ladies! 🍁🙏🏻🍂 Gratitude is an i Happy Sunday Pretty ladies!
🍁🙏🏻🍂
Gratitude is an important aspect of a happy and fulfilling life, We often reflect on gratitude in the month of  November and the Bible has many verses that emphasize the importance of being thankful. 🙏🏻

Here are a few of my Favorite Bible verses about gratitude:⬇️

“Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” (Psalm 100:4)

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” (Philippians 4:6)

“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.” (Colossians 3:15)

“And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” (Colossians 3:17)

These verses remind us to be grateful for everything we have, even in difficult times. By expressing gratitude, we can find joy and peace in our lives and strengthen our relationship with God.
