    Show us your hair do's....

    I finally got around to take some pics of my set with my new hair cut. I had layers put it about a month ago and it has made my curls so much more balanced. I am also in the process of going back to my natural red hair color after doing brunette for 2 years. This set was done with hot sticks...

    Invisalign!

    I know someone in their 40's that has Invisalign and she said they were painful. I also think they can only do so much. If you have had braces before it may work for you. Only your dentist can say for sure. I am 35 and I am getting my wisdom teeth pulled next month and then getting braces. I...

    Vintage Bathing Suits

    I ordered the size 16 but it is way too big. Now I am debating if I should return it for a 12 or a 14. My measurements are 42 36 41 but I wear a 38D bra. Anyone have any suggestions on which I should get? The bathing suit I have from last year which fits fine is a 12. I ordered a 16 EW because I...

    Hair Combs

    Does anyone have a good source for vintage style hair combs? Everything I find in the discount stores and accessory stores are either the wrong size or made from really cheap plastic. I am not looking for anything fancy, just a set of nice everyday hair combs.

    Nivea Creme

    I have been buying the little tins of Nivea at Walgreens. They originally said Germany, then switched to Poland. The ingredients list matched. Now the small tins say Mexico too like the tub but the list still matches the original ingredients list. I believe the difference is the big tub vs. the...

    'gaudy' eBay Photos?

    I think a good compromise would be if they photographed the item plainly so you could see what you were actually bidding on and then take a few different ones showing the different ways it could be worn. That way all customers would be satisfied.

    The Lutterloh System

    This is a very good point Snookie. Thanks for reminding me. I have done quite a bit of sewing for others and for dolls but not for myself. I think I will practice on one of the Simplicity or Vogue reprints first and work my way up to the Lutteroh System.
