Vintage Pencil Sharpener

Yes, I’m a make-up junkie but it didn’t start out that way. I’ve collected all things from times past since I was a teen. In my late teens I started collecting vintage purses primarily from the 1940’s-1960’s, needless to say I’m buried in purses. My other favs are vintage house hold items, one of a kind pieces and of course clothing. I came across a great item today, a pencil sharpener. Yes, I said a pencil sharpener. It called out to me! Here it sits proudly upon my desk ready to sharpen my favorite pencil.


Yes I still use pencils! LOL Enjoy the pics….

A natural & organic approach to nourishing your hair

Like many women I use my flat iron daily. I can’t leave the house without using my flat iron; unfortunately my favorite tool damages my hair. So this is what I do once a week to restore my hair, my in home treatment will leave your hair healthy and shiny.

You will need the following

3-Tablespoons of organic olive oil

Note: Use more or less olive oil depending on your hair type

4-Drops of your favorite organic essential oil

Note: Depending on my mood I use honeysuckle, grapefruit or pikake

Blend and apply to clean damp hair. Let hair dry, then proceed with styling.

Enjoy!
