My favorite holiday of the year is here! Yes, it’s Halloween!
While I will not be reviving my infamous Cher costume again this year, I did find this amazing Cher-inspired headpiece made by Peacock Blue Design Studio on Etsy a few days ago and just had to share:

Wow, so it’s been a whole week since I last posted. Blame it on Halloween weekend, which has been pretty crazy around here with work (today is my only day off in the middle of a stretch of almost a week and a half) plus tons of friends back in town for the weekend. […]
Accessory designer Jules Sherman just released the most adorable hand-painted princess and fairy barrettes for little girls. This is the newest addition to her yosi girls line, which includes plenty of cute barrettes, clips and hair ties for little girls and their big sisters.
Jules also designs modern, funky hair clips and barrettes for adults […]
Halloween is less than a week and a half away, and I’m still stuck for costume ideas. Part of the problem is that I need more than one… Halloween is practically a week-long affair in these parts. There’s a “Zombie Prom” happening tomorrow night and then all weekend long there will be spooky […]

So… I’m a little late in posting for Blog Action Day, but it’s still the 15th, and better late than never! (Work and errands and life get in the way of blogging sometimes, you know.) The theme this year is to raise consciousness of some of the environmental issues affecting all of us, […]
Somehow the other day I stumbled across this site called TalentDatabase.com. Yet another social networking site, this one seems pretty cool because it allows you to create a profile and portfolio where you can show off all of your artistic pursuits in one place. (Which is great if you’re like me and can’t […]
I got home from my New Jersey trip late Tuesday night (early Wednesday morning) and then I had to work yesterday so I’m still trying to get caught up on a million things. Soo… here’s a run down of a few things that are happening:
