    Bonnet Hair Dryers

    This may sound totally silly - but I made a modified soft bonnet dryer this weekend. I needed my curls to dry in time for church Friday evening. So I took a Target shopping bag, tied the handles at the nape of my neck, made a hole at the top of the bag, and inserted my hair dryer into the...

    Sheer Dresses and Blouses

    Nashoba, I hope I don't sound too ignorant or pry too much here. Tell me to mind my own beeswax if I do :) When you say endowed member, is that a position in the Church? Are you required to wear those garments as part of that position? So do you have the option of wearing different...

    Mineral Make-UP

    Wow, so I finally got around to looking at all the companies you ladies have recommended. I am fascinated! Everything looks like so much more fun than my makeup. Now I just have to try to decide which company I want to try first. Such choices! As for blush - I have a tough time with it...

    Classic wide leg pants?

    I have loved those pants for a while, but the inseam isn't long enough. I wonder if she would make them in a 34 instead..... hummm .... Anyway! The rise looks quite high in those pants as well. I'm not sure how the Chadwick's pants fit you, but those would be really high waisted pants...

    How popular was/is your name?

    My middle name is Lee, too. I married a Leaf. I am now: Jennifer Lee Leaf :rolleyes: :p If you say it really fast, it sounds like: Jennifer wee-wee. Or, at least, it sounded that way once when my hubby said it lol It is now an ongoing joke with us. My MIL is Cindy Lou Leaf. I think...

    Classic wide leg pants?

    I think Chadwick's is a little nicer quality than MetroStyle. MetroStyle used to be Lerner, and Lerner's stores are now New York and Company. Does that make sense? Lerner deals with catalogs only, and New York and Company took over the stores. I think the pants are pretty much the same from...

    eBay fit woes

    No fair! I have the opposite problem, garments look empty when I wear them! I put my measurements into a bra size calculator recently, and it told me that if my measurements were accurate, I was so small I actually didn't need a bra :eek: :mad: :( :p A different site told me I was a 36AA...

    eBay fit woes

    Yeah, I am oddly proportioned, too. That cute 60's dress I ordered doesn't fit right. Partly my fault, it was the first dress I ever ordered, and I forgot to check the shoulder measurements. I can barely move my arms and there is no seam allowance. I also forgot that since I am 6' I have...

    Sewing Lessons & FAQ

    Amber, You are just learning to sew, yes? I am a beginner sewer, and I really recommend making simple things to start. While my mom was here at Christmas, we made most of a dress together. She left me with things that seemed simple to finish the dress. Needless to say, last week I cut the...

    How popular was/is your name?

    Whew, Jennifer appeared in the 40's and was starting to gain popularity in the 50's. It was the #1 most popular name in the 70's. My mom chose it on purpose. Her name is Edith, and even in 1947 when she was born, Edith wasn't popular. She hated her name and hated being picked on because of...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    What do you guys think? Worth buying? These are up on the bay, and I wanted some input. They are in a size 11, so that is a huge plus. (I know we aren't supposed to post links to a live auction, is it ok if I posted pictures from one? If not, I am very sorry, and feel free to take the...

    New Whippet

    Cool! I live near Bright Leaf Square in Durham and the historic American Tobacco District. I have to admit, my name is just a play on my real last name, Leaf. And I added Gold because we talk about the Golden Era, and the process of gold leaf is kind of old fashioned. Plus, I love the...
