Happy December!

I bought a Sephora lip gloss set & there are 4 that I won't be using because the colors won't work for me.  They're brand new, unused.  I cannot find a pic of each individually, so here is the link to the set & I will tell you what number they are, so you can get an idea of the shade (sorry this is so difficult!).  Here's the link:  http://www.sephora.com/kissin-up-lip-gloss-set-P412566?skuId=1817261&icid2=products%20grid:p412566

Here are the ones I have to give away:

1. Candy Pink (starting from the left hand side, it's 3rd in line) - TAKEN

2.  Sheer Lilac (4th from the left) - TAKEN

3.  Burgundy (10th from the left) - TAKEN

4. Flushed Fuschia (15th from the left) -TAKEN

WOW!  Those were popular!!!  Hoping to get more to offer soon!!

On the Second Day of Christmas my true friend gave to me:

A brand new beautiful magnet for your fridge! It says LIVE, LAUGH, TRAVEL, I have desert scenes. I created these magnets on Shutterfly. Nice and big too! You may not travel, but the scenery on these is breathtaking. Link below, BUT the scene you see in it is NOT the scene I have here, mine here for you is wayyyy better! HA!

I went through some scarves this weekend, and came up with a few I thought I'd offer here.  None of them are perfect, and all came to me used, but I thought there was a chance some of you might like them.  Picture is here.  All except the square bird one are folded in half for the picture.  PM me if you're interested, and let me know first and second choice, etc.  I may divide them up, depending on how many requests I get.

Top row:
1. Colorful animals: silk, originally from Ten Thousand Villages (found this out from a friend who had one like it -- I got this one used.) TAKEN
2. Subdued stripes: Not sure what this is made from, but it's nice and light and soft.  Big enough to be a scarf or a shawl if you're small like I am. :) TAKEN
3. Songbirds: Pretty sure this is polyester. TAKEN

Bottom row:
4. Gray leopard: something synthetic. TAKEN
5. Gray flowers: This is super-soft, and I LOVE the feel of it, but just never seem to get around to wearing it.  Time to let it go to someone who will!  The picture cut it off, but it has fringe on the ends.  Also, it looks a little pinkish toward the middle of the picture, but that's a fluke.  It's just gray. TAKEN

Hi everyone!

This month I am offering an item to two people. I will order you a makeup brush pad from Amazon. This is just like the one I own and I looove it. It helps clean my makeup brushes thoroughly (very important for healthy skin) and is small enough that it's easy to put in a beauty drawer or on a shelf. It looks like this: http://i67.tinypic.com/2pl3p.png

Two are available to be claimed!

1. Taken

2. Taken TAKEN

***ALL TAKEN***

I have 6 packages of origami paper to give away.  These are small packets, with roughly 25 sheets per pack.

This is what origami is if you are not aware of it:
Origami is the art of cloth or paper folding.  Most people fold the paper into pretty patterns or animals, etc.
Here are some simple origami instructions on the web; there are tons of websites you can find for more patterns:
http://www.origami-instructions.com/simple-origami.html

Please send me your full mailing info when requesting these so I don't have to go back and forth with convos.  I am more than happy to ship to military mailboxes anywhere in the world.
1) TAKEN by Silvercat
2) TAKEN by Jen B
3) TAKEN by Tommygirl
4) TAKEN by Melissa B
5) TAKEN by ConnieJ76
6) TAKEN by candy14
surprise!  one more to bookfairy
