    Homemade christmas decorations...

    I made some ornaments last year with thick craft paper and wire in various abstract shapes. I really like the shapes,layers, and textures found on 50s fabric and recreated some of it with the paper and wire. I used a piece of atomic looking fabric as a tree skirt and a string of white lights...

    Christmas Gifts for your Fella

    the dop kit does sound like a great idea for almost any guy... mine's getting a restored Philco Predicta set, books, and probably some tools this year. About a month before Christmas we exchange wish lists and send each other links to websites, Amazon works well for this because you can view...

    Jeans?

    I really like the darker washes, they have a more vintage feel, look cleaner,and are more flattering. I have one pair of jeans that really fit well, they're a slight boot cut I think, they look great with heels, mary janes, and of course cowboy boots. I'll wear a 50s cardigan over a t shirt...

    "Lazy" Vintage Hair Ideas

    rubyred, very cute! I love short styles but could never wear them well. Last week I decided it was time to do some practice rolls and in the process figured out that braiding the rest of my hair makes great waves. First I divided it and rolled the front, then did two pigtail braids, like...

    Stuff in your PURSE

    I try to use a smaller purse for day to day, I find that the larger ones swallow up a bunch of junk that I just don't need. (last week I found a spoon in my purse) I normally carry my billfold, (cash, ID, credit cards), cell phone, keys, gum, hair clips, lip balm, midol, and various receipts...

    If I could,..............(What business would you start)???

    Ooh, what a great idea! I've seriously thought about doing this as an afterschool program of sorts, now to find some kids to participate :) In all honesty it wouldn't be that difficult to do, I may even be able to host it at a school campus

    Show us your hair do's....

    Yes, use it as a finishing spray. I don't normaly need it immediately after a set, but its great on day 2 or 3 when my hair starts to look dull. It won't make your hair stiff at all (which is nice) Try using it during your brush through routine (if you brush out the curls), I bet that would work...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Dracca, for non-sticky, non-greasy shine try a shine spray like matrix reflective shine spray, I think there's others called 100% shine and another in the Frizz ease line. I've tried a few different brands and they're all about the same but work great to add shine to dull hair and they're very...

    Keds surgery?

    I just saw this thread, and wanted to add a bit on saddle shoes. I got a pair my freshman year of highschool and at first they were painful, on my feet and my wallet. I think I spent $80 for 'em, anyways going to private school I had to wear them everyday and they became the most comfortable...

    smelly shoes!

    yeah, leaving shoes outside works, but as you'd find out living in tx, you should at least shake out your shoes before you put them on. My mom told me about the time her brother had a scorpion in his shoe but luckily shook it out and wasn't stung
