Buy Beloved Bijou Adornments to Benefit Sisterhood of Salvation

Hello dear readers,

I am so excited announce that I am going to be sponsoring a fundraiser for Sisterhood of Salvation.  SOS is a Christian Ministry that my friend Andrea started to help shine some light and love on women involved in the Adult Entertainment Industry.  Many of these women are hooked on drugs and living on the streets.  Many of them have never been taught that they have something more to offer the world than their looks...

Learn more about this cause at Sisterhood of Salvation at Blogspot 

My contribution to this awesome cause is that I will donate 30% of my jewelry sales to SOS.

When?  October 31st - December 31st

Where?  http://belovedbijou.etsy.com

How?  Enter coupon code GOFUNDSOS at checkout 

and 30% of the sale will be donated to SOS, 

plus you will receive FREE S&H!

There's more!  Become a fan of my Facebook page to participate in real-time "comment auctions" for SOS.  (Rules will be posted before the auction starts)

Be sure to become a fan of Sisterhood of Salvation's Facebook page

Finally, I will be doing a drawing to reward the people who participate in this event.  Receive entries by:
1.  Commenting on this blog
2.  Sharing this blog post and posting the link of the location where it was shared
3.  Making a purchase from my Etsy store using GOFUNDSOS coupon code

Making fake cupcakes with Whipple

I bought this little kit at Kmart the other day. It was on clearance for $10 and I thought it was worth a shot since I'm totally obsessed with pastry Jewellery!

This is what was inside

The instructions are really informative and apparently the Whipple cream takes 2 days to dry completely


This is what I ended up making. Keep in mind that I rarely, if ever, bake and I've never decorated using frosting before. I might try to redo some of the larger ones...

Or maybe I'll just buy another kit...

Apothecary Bottle Inspiration

My sister-in-law Ashley gave me this awesome idea to put all of your medicines into jars and bottles of various sizes and them label them using fancy printable labels.

"New medicine bottles inspired by antique apothecary"
I found labels using a Google Image search but here is the image that I used.

Then I used Picasa, a free photo editing program offered by Google, to add the text.
My bathroom is so much more fancy!
