Gigi Pip Hats
Gigi Pip really outdid themselves with the quality of their hats and how to care for them. If you are like me, and gingerly place your hat in the backseat only for your kids to sit on it or chunk it back with no regards to how much you care for that hat.... then like me, you need some help with re-shaping and just general overall care your prized possession- please click here to check out their aftercare blog and any answers to questions you may have.
Bags
Both of our leather bag companies (Day & Mood and Latico) have been pre-conditioned and sealed, which gives it that buttery-soft feel but also allows water to bead off a little easier than raw leather. You can combine olive oil and white vinegar in spray bottle, shake, mist over leather bag, and wipe clean with a dry cloth. I found a lot of helpful tips on how to care for your leather bag on this website.
Sheila Fajl Jewelry
Sheila Fajl jewelry is designed to make you feel beautiful and make your inner beauty glow, but she makes her jewelry easy to care for as well. All you have to do is gently polish your jewelry with a jewelry polishing cloth as needed. That's it! Easy peasy! And you can find a polishing cloth at any jewelry counter.... but here's a link to one at the Walmart.
While we all gravitate toward different genres of books and stories; some of us listen while others hold the book in our hands, the goal is the same... "We read to know we're not alone" - C.S Lewis
Truth be told, while murder mysteries have my heart, I'm a sucker for a good romance, and there's nothing like a daily devotion to raise our spirits, help us stay focused, and remind us to keep moving forward. So, while my reading wishlist is a mile long, but I never miss a chance to add another...Tell us, what are you reading? And what is that one book, that you read that one time and you still think about it, and you could read it again and agin and it would never get old?
Please do tell!
