A new doo!

Have you ever looked in the mirror, and thought to yourself...I am so over you and this look?

I used to be very creative with my hairstyles, cut and color.

Seems since I started blogging my creativity is just on my home and not myself.

So today,that was it!

I went to my hairdresser and I told her, Have fun, do what you want!

She was very excited to say the least.

She chopped, highlighted and added a few new feather heads.

Yeah,  I know I am probably too old for this look, but hey, trying to stay young.

My older boy said I look like a teenager...is that a good thing or a bad thing???

This picture is for Ruby Jean {inside joke}

Sharing with Pleated poppy What I wore Wednesday!

Have a great night all.

I am ready for Christmas now..whoo hoo!

Hand painted napkins

Happy Friday Everyone!

Hand painted napkins are so pretty, and so easy to make your self.

I have a stack of white linen napkins, that were given to me.  I thought at the time not sure what I will do with them, but sure I will take them.

I have been busy cleaning and getting ready for a crazy week ahead.  It is both Alex and

 and Mike's Birthday's.  Alex is having the 70's party, and  I plan on making Mike a nice dinner.

 It is so nice when something pops in your head, and you have everything you need on hand.

These were very quick and easy to do, and I will show you soon.
Basically, stencil, paint of your color choice, plain white napkins, and a small stencil roller.

Can you see what I plan on doing soon? Can't wait to share with you these gorgeous new dishes.

 BTW, I went back and got just one MORE featherhead.... A Blazin hot RED one!

Did you know these things are in HOT demand right now? Fisherman apparently are very angry with the hair industry.
 OH well, you can take me fishin and dunk my head a few times.  

JULY 30th will be the final day to get in on the MOUTAIN of GIVEAWAYS!

10 CANS of Annie Sloan chalk paint and more!
Go check it out.

What are featherheads?

What is a featherhead you ask?

I had no clue until yesterday when I went in for a haircut, and my cute hairdresser, 20 years my junior mind you, had them in her hair. 

I loved them, and tend to think I am cool and trendy sometimes, (cough, barf, gag)and felt I had to have a few myself.

Much to Jack's horror, as he was with me.

 I think the boy was  terrified to see what his Mom was going to look like.

He was afraid of this...

 

Which, hey, may work for some, but  a little much for an old Mom.

So I decided to get only a few.
They last for several months, and you can treat them like your own hair, curl them, straighten, wash, hairspray, they tolerate everything but hair color.

I loved these colors, however, there was such a variety.  I may get JUST one more....

(Ok there is Mike with half a smile...the guy hates pictures what can I say?)

I went a little conservative because I was not sure what my hubs would think. 

 HE loved it!

When I mentioned getting one more, he said WHY not? Go for it, it's fun!

Poor guy, he has been through so many hair colors, cuts, and changes with me....he just knows nothing to do with my hair is permanent...OH and I had perms too!

So have you seen anyone with them yet?
