The other day, I was flipping through the new InStyle Fall 2014 magazine and came across this current trend for nails, called the French Nouveau manicure. It's basically a sheer natural fresh coat of polish with a swipe of metallic glitter across the tips. A French Nouveau manicure is fun way to polish your nails.

While french manicures are known for their precision, the idea with the French Nouveau manicure is to bit of … [Read more...]

"How are you going to get this cleaned up!?" she'd gasp! We have many a story about … [Read more...]
Mother’s Tree Of Life Necklace

As some of you may know we are both mothers of many children. Kristin has 5 children and Chris Ann has 4.

Something that we would treasure forever. We also knew that whatever Mother's jewelry we would get, it had to be artistic. We want to let … [Read more...]
