    Fake Melons

    Please note that I said that I am quite happy with myself. If I had tooted my own horn much more, I was concerned about how that would appear. I most certainly don't define my self-confidence by the size of my bust. I am intelligent, funny, confidant, independent, compassionate, passionate...

    Fake Melons

    My experience growing up was much like Fleur's. I am 6' tall, and I was a 34-36 A and weighed between 130 and 150, so pretty thin. Clothes fit terribly. And I do mean terribly. There would be these hollow, crumpled pockets of fabric in blouses and dresses. Shirts often looked empty and...

    show us your lippy

    Lyburnum, I think the Chatterbox looks quite nice on you as well. Of course, I am slightly color blind, so I may not see the color quite right, but it doesn't appear to be loud to me. Just my 2 pennies :)

    As if we didn't chat about pin curls enough. . .

    Hehe, you make end papers sound easy. I find them to be incredibly frustrating. I just can't get the hang of handling them. For every curl, I use like 5 papers. Part of why I quit trying with my hair. I would spend an hour and only get about half my head done. I will just have to be...

    As if we didn't chat about pin curls enough. . .

    I have heard of people using the non-hinge clothes pins. Like the second picture on this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothespin

    Lyburnum, your dress is beautiful! I wouldn't worry about being over done because it is a small wedding. I only had 30 people at mine, and it was formal as all get-out (well, the ceremony, the reception was very informal). I wore an Elizabethan inspired gown with a veil and my hubby wore (I...

    red lipstick problem!!

    I use Dermablend. Mostly because I got it from my mom. She wanted to cover her vitilago but decided the colors were all wrong for her skin, so she gave the stuff to me. I love the concealer that she gave me, and this powder is great. Probably no different than anyone else's, but I got it for...

    Vintage Knitting!

    Sure looks like it! It comes with a lot of the supplies that you will need, which is great. And the reviews look positive. I would give it a whirl! Kami: Those books look wonderful! These are the ones I got - this thread inspired me :) Now I have to get done knitting things for my...

    Lead in Lipstick!

    And what is interesting is that the Body Shop, which had been an independent company with a strong commitment to the environment and concern about chemicals is now owned by Loreal. The Bodyshop had a low lead content, Loreal had a high lead content.

    Ladies and cigarettes.......

    I quit about a year and a half ago. What motivated me were the plans for my husband and I (who was also quitting) to go to Germany on the money we saved from not smoking. I really wanted to show him the city I grew up in and the amazing Christmas markets. I missed Germany so much that it was...

    Home Owners Associations

    HOA's like that drive me nutty. They are tied into what I do professionally, and I can't stand them. I am a community planner, and one of the things that I like to see in subdivisions is individuality (to a reasonable extent). In a country that is increasingly sedentary, lively neighborhoods...

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    Pattern sizing is strange. I wear a pretty standard size 10 in off the rack clothing. When making clothing from a pattern, I go by the measurements on the package. I am a 16 or 18 in the bust, a 14 in the waist, and something else strange in the hips. If I make a 18 dress, the waist would be...
