While searching through eBay for an unrelated item, I accidentally found an auction for the 1970’s rag doll, Holly Hobbie. The doll had seemed oddly familiar to me (doubted my own memory at first). Then it hit me! I did own a 9″ version of this doll when I was little. It’s sad that I …
Mirror, Mirror…
I recently received a catalog from Scully & Scully and fell head over heels when I saw their gilded mirrors. Totally fit for a queen. Majestic! *Photocredit: Scully & Scully
The World of Sanrio: After All These Years…..
I began collecting stickers at age 8 and show no signs of stopping =). I’m also nuts about Sanrio’s stationery and organizer re-fills (too bad they aren’t that easy to find for me). My parents used Sanrio as an incentive for me to do well in school. Maybe not the best idea but it definitely …
H2Pro 300 Heat Styling
I love my new H2Pro heat styler! Scored this one recently at a great price on sample sale. I’ve been using it in conjunction with my Victoria’s Secret Smooth Straight & Silky Styling Mist but there are many other great heat protectants out there e.g. Tresemme Heat Tamer.

Nifty Cutting Boards
I saw these Core Bamboo cutting boards yesterday and wanted to blog about them. Really great for a serious cook who wants a well-equipped kitchen beyond basics or has lots of extra storage space in his/her pantry or basement. I have to pick and choose what’s the most important me. Space is of the essence. …

The HE organizers can easily be hung in your closet, on your rolling rack, or behind any door using a hook or over the door hanger. They look neat, are awesome for …
Eccolo
As much as I am crazy about candles, I’m also an admirer of paper products, including pretty journals such as this one from Eccolo… Oh, and they also have the most darling Murano paperweights! *Photocredit: Eccolo & Gilt
