    Do you have a set beauty routine?

    I let my hair go til the fourth or fifth day. It has a curl to it when layered proper (off to the hairdressers' on Friday!). On the fifth day, it's usually in a ponytail or up-do. I don't wear makeup as per The Misters' request when we were dating in high school, so I wake up, wash gently with a...

    What motivates you to do your beauty everyday? Lately I cant find any motivation!

    Lately, I have been taking care of my grandson...I had three of my own and survived, how can a 5 month old up end my world?! I don't wear makeup since hubby likes me as is, so with that out of the way...at night I lay out what I am going to wear (grandson arrives quite early), have toiletries...

    The Middy Thread

    Great timing! I made an appointment for Friday and was looking for pictures to explain how I want my haircut and, VOILA!, there are instructions to bring! My stylist is great and if she doesn't already know this cut, I'd be surprised, but I will at least go in informed!

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Things that have disappeared? My, that could be considered datin' a gal! The thing I remember is taking my husbands paycheck, which was written out by hand, to the local, independent grocery store that was owned by a longtime citizen here in our town, having them cash it, give ME to money and...

    Don't want to be (seen as) a wannabe!

    The last time I went to the feed store to get the goats some grain I was in a dress....got my feed sacks carted, taken up to the front AND loaded in my car! Of course when I got home, I had to haul them out myself...The Mister knows I am capable :(

    Happy Halloween! and Happy Thanksgiving! and Merry Christmas! and Happy New Year! I've been here...really I have. First, there was the new grandbaby and his mama and daddy moving into their new house. Then I took a stumble and got a nasty gash atop my left foot that required a trip to the...

    The Pinup Thread

    I live in No. Cal. too! I wear jeans just about daily (we live in the country) and T-shirts are comfy too. I pin on a brooch or throw on a cardigan if I have to run to town. If I am meeting my friend for coffee, I may slip on a kerchief or tie one like Rosie the Riviter! I wear loafers with...

    Not feeling like myself

    :( very awkward feeling! :D I took the stitches out Sunday afterwards...its going to be sore and I don't think the scar will be as bad as I thought, but wearing a shoe strap across the top of my foot isn't going to happen for awhile as it is very sensitive..amazing what a cement stepping...

    Not feeling like myself

    I agree. I had to go to church with no nylons on this past week as I fell a week ago :rolleyes: and got a lovely gash in the top of my foot...ended up with 8 stitiches and some nerve damage in my foot. This also meant I can't wear some of my fave shoes either :mad: I felt soooo naked with no...

    Steampunk motorcycle helmet

    It is actually copper..which I think he is about out of. Went to garage sale this morning and turned up nothing useable so Ebay and Etsy are looking like where I will be shopping now. As for a full face 'Rocketeer'...he's already thought about it.....he's thinking of putting this one on Ebay...

    Steampunk motorcycle helmet

    Glad you liked the art work. That was my point. :offtopic: Your friends chose which helmets to wear...or not to. My grandpa gave many years in the military so they had this freedom. My point was to share my husbands' creativity of which I am proud of...as for his choice of helmets...that's...

    Steampunk motorcycle helmet

    He thought of that and putting brass gears on it...of course they seem to harder to find now that I want them! It doesn't really go with our 'ride' either but it is alot of fun to watch people's faces :) That was my thinking, selling them more for 'art' than actual wear. Maybe E-bay?

    Steampunk motorcycle helmet

    I find your comment a bit snarky for my liking. This is more of an art peice, something that one who was interested in "Steampunk" items might like. The copper is pounded to shape and small holes are drilled for the rivets to go into. While he has worn it to town on ocassion, IMHO, I find...
