I need to update my stylist's contact information


She is the one who cuts my hair.

Here is her contact information:

Mary at Luxe Salon
633 W Route 66
Glendora, CA 91740-4143
(626) 914-5893



I have gone to her for a layered hair cut. Her blowdrying skills, as I have said before, are AMAZING!
If you are in the area and need a new hair cut, go see her and please tell her I sent you ok?

Take care!

Love,
Iris

Cute vintage style aprons!

Aprons are cute for every day use around the house. They make cooking and cleaning more fun, lol! Or you can wear a pretty apron when you have friends or family over for dinner. Aprons can also be used for fun photoshoots. They come out great in pictures!




My buddy is putting together a new website http://simplybettys.webs.com/ to sell aprons. She custom makes them. I thought I would share with all of you, since a lot of you are into this type of style :)


If you want a custom made apron or are interested in buying one she has already made, contact her!

Nail art-No water marble design


I am subscribed to IHaveACupcake. I love her designs. They are always simple and cute.
A lot of her styles apply to short nails too.


Here is my attempt at her design.


I used a these 4 polishes.
White: White on by Sally Hansen
Blue: Blue Me Away by Sally Hansen
Fuchsia: (Color name unknown by Art Deco nail art polish)
Clear: Sally Hansen Maximum Growth plus as a top coat

You can use any three colors you like, or more.
(I think some outlining in black would have been cute too.)

(CLOSED) My first little give away! $50 gift card


This contest is over. Thank you for participating.

Hey guys, I know the gifts are small, but I have a baby and a house to tend to, so money doesn't go too far nowwadays. But I wanted to give you all something. If all goes well, I will do more give aways!

I am giving away two $50 gift cards to someone and their friend.

All you have to do is comment here or on youtube (Video link here) as a comment or a video response, with your message on why you feel your friend deserves these gift cards. That's it.

I know people can cheat and pretend to have a friend only to win 2 cards, but I will be checking to make sure the cards will go to that person and their friend :)


So, go on and tell me why your friend deserves this card.

Rules:
I will choose the winners by the give away end date; Friday, August 20th 2010 11 pm PST.

On August 20th, after 11 pm PST, I will message the winner.
The winner must respond by August 21st 11 pm PST. If the winner does not reply, I will contact the runner up. The runner up must reply by August 22nd 11 pm PST. And so on...

Do not send your response as a message on you tube.

DO NOT post "enter me" in the comment's area. I need to know why your friend deserves this small gift.

You can post a comment here on my blog or on you tube.
You can post a video response.
You can post a video response with a picture slide show.
You can post a text video response.
Doesn't matter how long the video is.

Please note, I screen my comments, so you may not see it posted right away. Be patient <3


Your friend must be a person. No animal friends allowed :( Awwww LOL!

You must be a subscriber.

Your friend must be a subscriber.

You and your friend must have an email to receive the gift cards. I will be emailing them to you.

A cute candy review done by my husband

^__^ I hope he does more. He's so camera shy :D

What I do

I make hair tutorials on YouTube. But I created this blog to connect with my fellow writers/bloggers. I've also created a myspace account, but I don't like the format for blogging. I'd rather blog here. As far as something to note about me: I rarely have will power when it comes to dieting. I'd rather eat what I want, but in moderation. I like girly stuff, but I don't like doing my own hair. I rarely do my own hair, so if you saw me in the street, you'd probably not recognize me. But if you ever saw me, I would love it if you came to say hi. Thanks for reading my blogs.
