1. 1950’s Sports Coupe
I took an early morning drive into the countryside for an appointment I had. I saw this old girl sitting at the front of a farm house for sale, so I had to pull over.
I love old cars. I wish I had one. When I was a little girl, I promised myself that I would buy an old car one day. Of course I also wanted a Shelby like Farrah Fawcett drove on the original Charlie’s Angels as well. It’s a good thing I’m not a rap star, because I’d have a garage full of cars and go broke.
It was a beautiful day for a drive through the country, a stop at a hamburger joint and time to relax and reflect.
2. Angels Hair Designs
This month, I accepted a commission to build two different web sites. I was happy to be able to integrate some of my photography and MUA skills, to use for one of the sites, Angels Hair Designs. Angel has been a stylist in the Houston area for years and has tons of experience, which I learned while gathering information from her for her site. I did also use pictures Angel had for her site, and she will be adding more before and after photos on her hair design blog as well.
3. VienneMilano Italian Hosiery
I received a very fancy pair of thigh high stockings from the Italian Hosiery company, VienneMilano this month. Since it is about 95 degrees outside, I decided that I was left with no alternative but to show off black lace, seam backed thigh highs…indoors. The company was right when they said that these are made for comfort and to stay up. I love them, and will be doing more VienneMilano posts in the future!
4. Vanity
I am finally finished setting up my new vanity area and it’s my new favorite spot! I do not know how I made it before without my own corner of the universe. All of my makeup is so much more organized with the added storage space. This also gives me a much better spot to do makeup when people come over to get their face done, and it’s a better ares to film makeup videos in!
5. The Sky Broke Open, The Light Shown Through.
Forgive this cell phone picture from my Instagram picture I had posted this month. It was a shy scene that took my breath away. Whenever I see the clouds with breaks of light shinig through… It reminds me of an afternoon that I was gardening years ago.
On this day, I felt eyes upon me as I was planting flowers, so I looked up to see two people staring back at me. One of the people was an angel who had a light so bright coming from his chest area, that the rays of light were cutting through the clouds. All sound ceased to exist in those moments. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, so I looked away to clear my mind and in a split second…they were gone. I am a very grounded, rational person, but I knew what I had seen was real. I ran in the house to call my dad and tell him.
Basically, now when I see clouds like this, with the breaks of light, I want people to be able to understand more clearly, what I saw that day. For me, it’s always a fabulous reminder of that moment. There is God, Jesus, angels, heaven and life beyond this world. I know this because I have seen.
6. Waste Not Want Not Creations
One of the business sites I was able to develop for a client this month, was for Waste Not Want Not Creations. It’s an eco-friendly accessory designer behind the brand, and I loved so many of the one of a kind pieces that she has created, including these glass hearts shown above. I love web building when I get to be creative and help someone dive a bit deeper into the social media pool and hopefully get found by the world. The shot above is just an ad button for her site, but you should click it and see her fun and whimsical creations from vintage or reimagined products! I wanted to share part of what I’ve been doing all month long.
