Amazing MakeUp Application!

My daughter, Taylor, is about to graduate from Blanche Macdonald Makeup School and I just wanted to share a sample of her work - this is her interpretation of an Indian Elephant Bride - can you just imagine what she could do for a bride here in Canada!

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

Irish Blessing
May the roof above us never fall in.
And may the friends gathered below it never fall out.

"May you have all the happiness
and luck that life can hold—
And at the end of all your rainbows
may you find a pot of gold."

Candles For Your Wedding - Tutorial

If you are looking for ways to put some sparkle in your day without spending a fortune ... here is a tutorial you might find useful ...you couldn't get much more thrifty than this!

Tin Can Candles

Never compromise on STYLE!

I have been working on putting together a couple of tutorials with projects that I hope will help some brides make their tables sparkle, without costing them a fortune. I dream of ways of creating weddings that are unique and beautiful … that will leave a memory for you and your guests that will last a lifetime.  I know that it absolutely is NOT necessary to compromise on style … that whatever your budget,  you CAN have that “Special Day”.

Unfortunately, there are many aspects of a wedding where you have very little control over the costs … but when it comes to décor … I promise you, that there are ways to bring your vision to life without putting you in debt forever.  By my way of thinking, even if you are fortunate enough to have an unlimited budget  – why spend it all … if you can have the wedding of your dreams and still have money left over for the honeymoon or to put a down payment on the rest of your life … why wouldn’t you?

Hello Again ...

Hello again … sorry I have neglected putting any new posts on as of late … I’ve been swamped with trying to make this blog beautiful and FUNCTIONAL … so much to learn!!  I’ve decided that I love Photoshop and am making steady progress with that.  The html thing is another story though … it’s not so easy learning how to get the word out there & have the search engines recognize that I even exist.  There is so much material on the internet about “optimizing” your website … but without a “basic” understanding of html … hmmm. Well, I might be looking to take a quick class so that I can get back to what I really love to do.
