Tips for Feeling Your Best over the Holidays
When you want to Sparkle in your Holiday pictures, but have tired eyes from not enough sleep, Collyre Bleu eye drops from France are what all of the models and makeup artists use. One little drop will make your whites as white as snow, and your eyes as crisp as can be!

To get rid of the Holiday bloat and weight gain, juicing is the way to go. Dr. Sandra Cabot has juicing recipes for any ailment... and they work! Her Liver cleanse diet is also excellent, I have done it many times. Her recipes are delicious, it is a great way to get back on track for the New Year. You can get her books and info at www.sandracabot.com. If you do not have a juicer and want a quick fix, you can buy fresh carrot or watermelon juice at the store... it is better if it is freshly juiced though! I always feel my best when I am juicing.

My Favourite Gift that I Gave...

This was my favourite gift that I gave to my boys...Although it may not have been theirs...yet! The finest Italian Alabaster from Volterra. I'll give periodic updates on our progress! Following are some pictures of a couple of my sculptures. I work all by hand, with no power machines. I am very excited to see what my boys (Marcello,7, and Lorenzo,5) will come up with!
One of my favourite gifts!
The footage in this documentary of great Italian Cinema, and some of my favourite cities, transported me ... Viva Italia!http://www.amazon.com/gp/mpd/permalink/m37COVQCSOAQ1

Is 2009 Catching You Off Guard?

I don't know about you, but 2008 flew by, and I am just now starting to think about 2009! Here are a few of my Etsy Artisan Favorites to keep abreast of the coming year. It is much more satisfying and interesting to buy direct from skilled artists than going down to the local mall. And you get such great handwritten notes of gratitude! Buying Handmade directly supports the arts (and makes you feel really good on top of getting things no one else will have!)

Winter Wonderland in Las Vegas

Who knew Vegas was Green???
Republic Services, the Reycling Company for Las Vegas, decorated this tree at Opportunity Villages' Magical Forest. I love the decor ideas here! The water bottle curtain was very cool, with clear marbles in to give weight and jingle. It's amazing what your mind can come up with when you open your eyes up a little wider. Kids have such great imaginations, giving them some recyclables, paint, glitter, and string will produce custom works of art...
