The Price of Beauty

-


I've been getting my eye brows waxed and threaded for years. I have my Dad's unibrow and have to tame it often. However, the past 2 times I've gotten them waxed, I've gotten burned!

Seriously - it really hurts. I don't know if it's the extra sun exposure or the acne cream I'm using but something is making my eye lids extra sensitive. I guess I'm going to have to stick to threading. {{sheesh!}}



On a happier note, I've recently gotten some hair pieces and I've been having a blast playing around with them. It's amazing how hair completely changes your entire look.



Here's my new pony tail! {{squeal in delight}} Usually I just wear it at home as it makes me feel completely girly in my barbie hair. I finally got brave enough to wear it on my girls day on Wednesday.



Wendy, Lisa, and I went to the ghetto part of Dallas and went shopping for fabric (over off Harry Heins road). It was a bit scary at first but we found some fun fabrics and embellishments and had quite the adventure.

We were in Dallas at a mall and that wast the first time I had ever heard / seen threading. I was a little skeptical but now I wish I would have done it. I would love to try it out sometime.

It actually hurts less and gives you a more defined and accurate brow defininition.

I totally wax! It MUST be done... :)
I have to tell you that it's got to be your acne cream! My sis in an esthetician and she has warned me multiple times to always tell whoever is waxing me anytime I change my face care regime. It makes a HUGE difference when waxing.
Threading sounds awesome. I've never had it done myself.

I have been burned the last time waxing as well! It hurt!!! My eyelids were poofy and purple. Just make sure you don't have errands to run afterwards while the kids are at a sitter. Embarrassing!

Blogging 101 - What Not To Do

Since I just did a post to welcome a bunch of new bloggers, I thought I'd give our newbies some good tried and true: Blogging 101 -What NOT to do! Yes, this is unsolicited advice from yours truly, but I think it's about time someone addresses the issues. #1. Don't get green with envy , Blenvy it's coined, while reading other's blogs. According to CJane , "It usually comes from reading a blog that emphasizes my insecurities." Well said blogger guru. I couldn't agree with you more. Please remember that each post is just a moment of that person's day/week. Instead, just be happy that something amazing happened to your fellow blogger. Be inspired by them! If you really feel the need, use that insecurity to make a change in your own life and do something similar. #2. If people don't update their blog roll by adding your name under 'Friends & Family' don't get your feelings hurt . It's simply a nice gesture, forgotten. Seasoned b...

Craft Closet Make Over

I've finally done it. After 2 years of living in this house, I've finally finished organizing the last closet in my home. This is the guest room closet that doubles as my "craft" closet. You could barely consider it a walk-in closet, but with 2 new shelves my man built for me over the weekend, it's got just enough space for what I need. Closet Before Closet Before - complete chaos ! After - view from hall (I used a different camera because mine is still broken. It was so hard to get these pics the space is so small. I hope you can get the idea.) Small shelf with hanging space for guests clothes - just above the door that goes to the attic. I spray painted 2 of these tins pink and glued flowers onto the other 3. Top Shelf Middle, 2 new shelves that Jason made and I painted white. I added these "curtains" to cover the other white bins and to make the space less messy. I used 2 tension rods and they open up in the middle. I was inspired by this craft room ...

I can't believe it, as of Tuesday, I have been blogging for one year! On the outside not much has changed: I have 3 boys, live in the same house, my man has the same job, and I still go to Mavens, book club, and dinner club with the same fab friends. But in reality a lot has changed: * Davis has braces * Davis is now medicated * Dylan has been diagnosed with ADHD and is now medicated {{a hit to my ego}} * Finished Mommy & Me gymnastics with Drake * Drake is talking a little * Drake is in a big boy bed - although still not sleeping through the night * Jason's going to school to get his MBA * Executive Homemaker which took over a year to design and 5 years as a concept is 15 months old and has 2,333 members and growing at a rate of 300+ new members every month. * Executive Homemaker's online store has grown from three to 26 Mom- prenuers ! * Tip Junkie is 11 months old * My house is a little prettier and more organized * My Dad is divorced * My brother Scott came home...
