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.

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.

Cost: $12.00 USD


Cost: $17.00 USD


Cost: $9.00 USD


Cost: $25 USD


There's much more in her shop, so go take a look!!!! Click Here.

Vintage Inspired Birdhouse

This bird house is TOO cute!! You could probably even display it inside somewhere on a shelve or wherever you tend to display things... or outside where the birds are is always a good idea, too.

I think my favourite part would have to be the glass knob piece. It is quite affordable at 15 bucks, so it will probably sell fast, especially since it was picked by some of the Etsy editors, but click on the shop and you'll find others!!
