Awesome stuff roundup!

Hello!

So my birthday is about 2 1/2 weeks away! It might not be exciting to get older for lots of people, but my family has always made birthdays a pretty special thing, and my friends are always super great to me as well, so I love my birthday!

I'm now going to admit my age.... I'm going to be 24...GASP!
I never thought I'd be older than 18 and here I am going on 24!

So, I wanted to show you some really cool gadgets that I have found lately! You could call this a birthday wish list of sorts....or you could just call is an "Awesome stuff roundup!"

First is my favorite! It is only $14 dollar which made me instantly want to buy it, but the shipping is $8 so I put it on hold, but I think it is amazing:
It is a candle stick that is actually a lighter for real candles! I always have a hard time finding our candle lighter, but if it is part of your decor in your house, you will never have to go searching in a drawer for it! This is number one on my list of must have useless things!!!! Love it!
You can buy it HERE

I really really really want this series of books! I have the one shown above, but I do not have the others! I have no idea if they are good or not, so don't think I am telling you to go out and buy them for yourself, but I want to read them badly as soon as I finish The Sookie Stackhouse series!

I have wanted this cupcake necklace for a while! They discontinued them right before Christmas so of course it did not make my Christmas list, but they are back! I love this hot pink color, but there are a few other colors to choose from. If you like this as much as I do, you can purchase it HERE for yourself.

This headband is from Target. I love it! You can also get it HERE at Target.com but I have seen them in stores, so you should be able to pick one up there!
These owl bookends haunt me every time I go into Borders. I'm pretty sure they were made with me in mind. Aren't they cute? You can get them HERE for $25.



I just wanted to update about those few things, hope you saw something that you might like for yourself!

Happy Shopping!

  2. I never thought I would be older than 25, so I know what you mean ;) Just wait until you’re 31 like me….ahhhh.

    The candle lighter is so clever. I don’t really know anything about The Vampire Diaries book series, but I definitely love the show. The cupcake necklace is adorable and I also love the headband.

    Those owl bookends have your name written all over them!

  5. So i am a tad jealous. Target over in America land is so freaking awesome, they have pretty stuff and cool accessories that people actually want to wear!

    Over here in Australia its all trashy and cheap stuff that people just wouldnt want to wear. That headband is really lovely, you NEED it ;)

    And the candle lighter is awesome too! Nice finds :)
