Natural Stone Beads Bracelet made from Carnelian.

My favorite item @ Rachel Rose Jewelry Boutique

Do you know how in marketing things are pictured and/or displayed in such a way,that when you actually see it in person-your disappointed? When I saw and read the following,I knew this item was for me!

The Savanna stretch bracelet is made up of natural stone beads made from carnelian. The bracelet is then accented with a dangling antique brass coin charm set upon natural wooden beads. It easily stands on its own, but also looks very chic when layered with other bracelets. You'll like it just as much with jeans as you will with your fanciest dress on a Saturday night. 
Item # MIT4009


I have to say,I was not disappointed. You can dress it up or down. It actually goes with everything!

See my pictures below....



It retails for $28.00 -If you in box me rachel.lunagirl@hotmail.com I will send you a link for a discount price for being a Blogger Buddie.Put Savannah bracelet on memo.

Creating a Mobile Office

Finding it harder and harder to stay disciplined in a home office environment -I have moved in at the local library. Well not in a squatter sort of way-more of a utilizing the facilities sort of way. 

Everything,minus the lap top- was purchased @ local yard sales. 
                              ALL FOR UNDER $5.00!!!

              
   From left to right, a small sewing box for the button rings I am currently making. The middle tote acts as a purse/office supply storage & the avocado green vintage bag holds my lap top. 






                                               




I use a shawl to cover the contents of my purse (to hide how messy things can get)-I think I am a closet/purse pack rat. The first step is admitting it, right? 
Do you see the little "people" on my bag. It's actually a hair clip -thought it would bring a little character to the bag. 
There you have it, a mobile office for those days you need to get away from the home office.

Achievable Fashion

Most people channel surf. I happen to blog surf. This is how I happened upon Achievable Fashion. First off ,I love the mascot girl .She is just too cute! How many of us can say we have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear?Sounds so familiar. It's similar to when one of the kids opens the fridge and yells" Mom,there's nothing to eat!"Am I right? -Well Achievable Fashion caught my eye and interest.


Karyn,the owner of Achievable Fashion confesses she is not a fashionista. Secondly, confesses she is not a writer. She's was just too busy of a mom who got sick of having  a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear. Her fashion journey began when she set out to rid herself of that dreadful closet full of clothes and nothing to wear – well then out came Achievable Fashion  book.

Which is great for us !
   If you  (click here) - check out a sample of the book. I love when authors give a sneak peak of their work.To me, that tells you it has to be good! There's  so many great ideas! I am sure we all need to "vamp" our wardrobes. Let me know what you think of the site!

I went searching for a hands on video -found one!
