Today’s favorite five are:
- Swap-Bot.com – DAMN YOU (I mean, THANK YOU) Lindy for introducing me to swap-bot! I’m already addicted and I haven’t even engaged in a swap yet! It’s a great site that promotes creation of creative items and then trading them with other artistically inclined people around the world! VERY COOL idea and a great way to keep inspired, engage in good artisan practice by having deadlines and meeting the and ultimately spreading the love by sharing your work with the world!
- OnlyNaturalPet.com – they offer herbal remedies and treatments of ALL KINDS for cats and dogs! Sasha has been cured of her seizures thanks to Doc Ackerman’s Epilepsy & Seizure Formula and all three cats have been cured of their behavioral aggression issues thanks to Let’s Be Friends. TRULY an amazing online find. I will patron this place for as long as I have animals!!! I encourage you to check out their selection of goodies if you have pets yourself!
- Side swept bangs! I cut some the other day after polling peeps on FB and the overwhelming consensus was to do it. SO I DID IT, and I loooove them! The first night I went too conservatively and the bangs were too long and just annoyingly falling into my face (too short to tuck behind the ears, too long to hang in front of my eyes). The next morning I cut them much shorter with a new technique I found online and LOVE the look and affect. I haven’t had good bangs like this in years. It’s a great way to give me a “new look” for the new year without chopping all the hair off I’m struggling to grow out! (the mid length hair during the grow out phase is ALWAYS the worst!!!) I’m a bit torn by my bangs though – I feel like I’m channeling Tina Fey, and for many reason than one, I’m not sure I’m happy about that. HOWEVER, she does have great hair, so I’ll accept the comparison for now.
- Inchie art! It’s fun, it’s little and it’s pretty fast in comparison to larger works! Swap-bot introduced me to it and I’m HOOKED! Meg came over to my studio last night with me and we both worked on fun little inchies…I’ll post a picture of a couple of the ones I made soon!
- My sister making me a home cooked meal! Tilapia, collard greens and a baked potato. DELICIOUS!
