Paper Clips

I recently had to do a project at work that required me to use a ton of paperclips at once. So now I am left with a large collection of random paperclips. I'm sure I can find something to do with them eventually, but I wish I had the ones I just found on the ModCloth site instead!! My favourite are the chickadee clips :)

Camera Bags

Soon enough I will be buying a new lens for my camera, which makes me realize that I need a new camera bag! I'd need something with a few extra pockets so I can carry around the camera with lens attached, an extra lens, a flash, and the charger. I knew Etsy would have something that I'd like, and after comparing a few different shops, I found what would work best for me!! Now its the hard part of picking which fabric design I like best. Here are a few neat ones:

DSLR Padded Camera and Lens Carrier Bag..LARGE

Cost:
$89.99 USD

Where To Get It:

GypsyRoseHandbags Snugglens

$90 is not much when you consider how much a dslr camera and lenses cost.

Also in that shop you can find smaller camera bags for your normal sized P&S cameras, as well as wallets, checkbook covers, cosmetics cases, etc.

MoroccanOil

Salut!

So let me tell you all about how much I love MoroccanOil for your hair. Melanie told me about it last week and even gave me a demonstration on her own hair! Words cannot describe how soft your hair will feel when you use it, as well as how great your hair will smell. I think the best part about this stuff is the fact that it doesn't make your hair greasy at all. You'd think that by putting "oil" in your hair you would end up with something heavy, but this makes your hair frizz-free, super soft, light, and shiny!


I bought my bottle at Trade Secrets for about $40 CDN. This may seem like a lot of money, but you don't need very much at all (and I have long thick hair). So I can see this lasting me a while.

Lets all thank Melanie for bringing this to my attention.

Cheese and Aprons

So my dear friend Melanie started up her own blog about recipes and yummy food that she has made. If you're hungry, I'm warning you... the pictures are delicious.

cheese ... and things that taste good with cheese

By the way, Melanie also has the most awesome apron EVER, and if you're looking to score a nice apron as well, I found a bunch in momomadeit Etsy shop.

Here's one I quite like:

Which Clutch Would You Clutch?

The current Etsy voter poll is all about clutches. There's definitely a variety on there, and I will admit, some of them are just plain... well, not so lovely (but I won't mention which ones they are). But if you're a girl who likes clutches, then go check out the poll going on right now and vote for your favourite!! If you like one of them, you'll notice the sellers usually make others as well in case you're looking for different colours.

Custom Cross Stitch

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have no excuses for that haha.

Here's a custom Etsy item I ordered recently. I saw ThePurpleHippo's shop and I knew that they would be able to make what I wanted... So, here is what I ended up with, which I have proudly hung in my room.



In total, it cost me $30, which included the shipping and the frame, and this sweet piece is 8x10. Definitely worth it... and may I add that this thing shipped in no time!! This item is not listed in her shop, but it is exactly what I asked for.

Here are some other gems that you can buy from ThePurpleHippo.
