[ad#co-1] Let me fill you in on a bit of a secret. I am a bit of a make up junkie! I love the vibrant variety of colors that are shimmery and glossy glamorized array of products. Ever since I was a little girl I have always experiment with my Mom and Grandma's vanity products and mixed and matched what I thought looked good. Now as an adult I have to give in to my passion and obsession and I'm always looking to try the next big thing! For those of you who this topic is somewhat foreign, let me queue you ...

Paint chip samples and swatches are helpful when considering color options for a home painting project. They are available at home improvement stores in an array of shapes, colors, and sizes to help choose what color is best for the project.
The best part about paint chip samples and swatches they are FREE! There really isn’t a rule to how many swatches you can help yourself to, but by taking handfuls some may feel guilty. So each time you stop off, just take a few or whatever COLOR you are feeling for that day.
I was just introduced to a neat company called glassybaby who are local to us in Portland. This company creates hand blown glass candle holders with a purpose.
The company was first created in honor of the owner Lee and her journey through Cancer. It first started when Lee sent her husband to a glassblowing class in Seattle to relax and melt their stresses away as she fought her own battles of health. After her husband created bright and colorful glassybaby creations, friends and family wanted to get their hands on these and be apart of the healing of Lee and her fight against Cancer through ART.

My friend Mandi who I grew up with in middle school is now a successful and gorgeous high fashion model who loves what she does! Mandi has a passion for not only fashion, but SHOES! Designing has always been a dream of hers so she took a few pairs of her old favorite shoes and added a few things to create something funky and unique.
Her shoes are not for sale or sold in stores anywhere, but just something she created for fun!
Check them out below:
These are my favorite, her “mosaic heels”, using crushed mirror pieces and intricately placing them one by one…
Seeing the horrible aftermath footage and stories of the earthquake in Haiti, it got me thinking that this could happen anywhere anytime. Truly sad that it happened to our friends in Haiti, but very thankful that I am alive and it didn’t happen here in the states.
I know back when the Y2K thing was a big hit, people were building disaster kits because they thought the year 2000 was the end of the world. I didn’t and still dont really believe in that hoo-hah. But I DO think it is important to have a family disaster kit ready regardless of what year it is or what astrology magazine says is the next “big year” of the world ending.
Here are some places a Family Disaster Kit is helpful/recommended:
In your HOME: In case of a natural disaster you can rely on your own kit to survive until help arrives
In your CAR: If you are stranded on the side of the road, you have supplies in case someone is injured
At your JOB: Each employer has their own standards of what they think should be in a First Aid Kit, bring your own so you know what you have available
