In It To Win It
October 31, 2008Skin Care – Cleansing & Toning
October 31, 2008
Makeup is only as good as the skin that’s underneath. A bold statement yet so true. Whenever a client sits in front of me the first thing I look at is their skin. More often than not, I discover that they aren’t caring enough for their skin or aren’t using the most beneficial items based on their skin’s needs at the time.
There are a multitude of skin care lines and manufacturers on the market today, and a treatment for everything your face can possibly ever encounter. With so much selection, how do you go about choosing what’s right for you?
And These Are The Moments
October 30, 2008She’s back!
Autumn_Bride is home from her fabulous honeymoon and we’ve gone over some pictures from the day … now I would love to share them with you!
Considering she was married in mid-October, the weather completely blessed her that day. Not too hot, not too cold and blue skies. Here are some of my favourite shots …
Our Circle of Life
October 28, 2008As a graduate student, my specialty is sociology. I study people in groups… their behaviour, their expectations, their relationships with others. And given this choice of field, you’d probably jump to the easy conclusion that I love people, have an active social life and I have a ton of people who would want to attend my wedding.
You’d be mostly wrong.
Round, Round, Round, Round, I Get Around
October 28, 2008Actually, Tarriell does.
It seems one of her posts caught the eye of a researcher …
Now Everytime I Go For The Mailbox …
October 28, 2008
Now that wedding season is dying down a bit, I’m happy to focus more on invitations. For those who don’t know (because it doesn’t get posted about often enough!), Moments That Shine loves to get creative on paper, too! Actually, this time of the year is part of my favourite. Chaos seems to wind down and I’m able to focus more on being artistic. Perfect for those blustery days!
I love using fabric and different textures! This is an inexpensive yet trendy concept.
And yes, I know it should be ‘Gwyneth’ … luckily this was just a sample 
Right now we’re trying to come up with eco-friendly options for customers even if it’s a suggestion as simple as ‘get rid of inserts’.
The Rear View Mirror Telling Lies
October 27, 2008An event that has something fun for the guests to do *always* is a hit.
Pretty simple, right? You’d be surprised at how many people don’t think about that though. I’ve talked about cookie-cutter weddings before so you know what I mean. I think some fine folks just get caught up in a nice time and they don’t aim for a EXTRAORDINARY time.
One idea to make your guests have that fantastic time is to have fun with photos.
She Took Everything She Owned
October 26, 2008GREAT website find for those who don’t know about it yet. Are you having troubles finding a dress? Actually, there is more than just dresses to this site …
I’ll Be the Sand, You Be the Pearl
October 25, 2008
“As you may be aware, there are various different gems such as rubies, sapphires, emeralds and not forgetting the good ole diamonds. But did you know that compared to all the possible gems available pearls are by far the most eco-friendly gem. Why, you may ask? Because pearls don’t require mining that is used to unearth other gems. This mining is destructive. Pearls don’t require any chemical leaching. Most importantly pearls are found in mollusks which are used to culture pearls and these mollusks depend on a relatively stable environment and clear water, in order to develop.”
I don’t think I could have said it better myself.
I Have No Missionary Zeal
October 24, 2008I’m a huge fan of bamboo. I love the way it smells, looks, is durable … everything! And you know I love it most of all because it’s eco-friendly 
I decided to make this week’s Etsy post all about bamboo. Some items are completely made of it and some are just pretty because they have bamboo on it
Believe it or not, this is a bamboo pillow. I kid you not! Contact .: tinydecor :. for more information. The cover is 100% organic cotton, too!
