planters for blooms

Placing a row of planter boxes is a wonderful sight when you take a first peek out of the window in the morning, especially if you take great care to keep the blooms healthy. Whenever I’m in a nursery, I will be looking out for garden planters and one of the things I want to do when we get a new house is to plant a row of lavender. Lavender is healing, relaxing and comforting to the senses.

charm for life bracelet

I’m not one of those who replenish new issues of women publications on a monthly basis. As a believer of saving the trees, I have opted to read fashion news online and an occasional purchase of a magazine when I need to keep myself occupied on a vacation. I get my printed fashion news when I’m in a hair salon, a cafe or anywhere else with a good stock up of magazines.

Anyways, I was drawn to the true facts of cervical cancer in the latest issue of Bazaar (not sure which edition), caused a type of virus known as HPV. Do you know that 80% of women would have the HPV virus by the time they reach 50? To raise the awareness of cervical cancer and HPV, renowned jewelry designer, Carolyn Rafaelian of Alex and Ani has joined forces with Merck & co to launch this set of beautiful Charm 4 Life bracelet set. The charm features a Chinese peony which symbolizes feminine beauty and reproduction. I’m not sure if you have seen a Chinese peony in full bloom but it is a captivating beauty of its own and in this case, it’s a symbol of peace. Available in russian gold and russian silver finishes. Buy it at the website of Alex and Ani. ($32 each)

say thanks with social

There are many ways to thank you and I am still a believer of print cards though I do choose e-cards when I’m late for a birthday wish or festive greeting. Whichever ways you choose, what matters most is to say is with your heart. For classic, stylish and modern cards, check out Social stationery, designed by New Yorker Kenny Gee. What’s unique about Kenny’s cards is that not only do you find a design in the front but you get your real value for money for the complementary design on the back of the cards too!

call the professional

My cousin got rid of her carpet after learning that her son was suffering from nose allergies. Besides, she wasn’t too happy with the stains on those old carpets of hers which led her to a recent floor remodeling. The carpets of today are more stain resistant than they have ever been in the past, which makes cleaning even the worst possible spills easier than ever.
