SHOP HANDMADE

 

 

 

The Holidays are around the corner.......once again how did that come up so quickly.

 

Have you ever thought of shopping all handmade, local artists, canadian/USA made only for your gifts?

 

Something to think about it,  may cost a little more but your gifts will be original, crafty and loved for the thought you put into it.

 

Here are some sites to consider:

Ok so I hope I have made you think about shopping differently this holiday season and also gave you some ideas.
Please leave any other websites for folks to check out.

Happy Shopping....also no malls and items will be shipped right to your door!!  
You can even get the artist to ship directly to the person the gift is for......I am doing that for a couple of people and adding a little card with a note from them.

 

 

 

IT'S MOVEMBER AGAIN

 

 

I cannot say I am a huge fan of moustaches, I dont mind a nice goatee.  I find in Movember I have a sudden urge to buy razors and hand them out to men.  I think the message behind movember is great..."men's mental and physical health needs to be talked about" and "lets encourage each other to go to the doctors."  However, many men do not look good in a moustache.

 

In this link it will show some great staches but also some really bad ones.

Hope this inspires all the men out there and I will resist shaving random mens moustaches off this month

 

 

moustaches

 

Men it is time to go to your doctors and tell him/her if you have any issues, changes that have occurred it is always better to be safe than sorry.

 

Its a quick turn and cough :)
