Aren’t these photos breathtaking? It’s to be expected though if they came from the National Geographic photo database. Click on the links to download for your personal use.

Flash Websites – You Just Have to Love Them

My New Year’s (Design) resolution? Dabble more in flash websites. Although I still lack the sophistication and the actionscript skills and always hide behind the reason that flash websites don’t get crawled by Search Engines, I will always be a fan. While I keep myself busy studying flash (no doubt will take me years), see below my list of flash websites that can blow your mind.

New Jewels to End the Year with a Bang

Posted in art, fashion, what's up on December 28th, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

There’s no such thing as a late Christmas present if my husband will give me one of the lovely cubic zirconia rings that I saw online this morning. Partner it with a round bracelet and a simple necklace and I’d be his slave forever for one year until it’s Christmas once more. Just looking at these earrings just makes me want to go to a jewelry shop and try a few. There’s no better way to spend one’s free time than playing pretend, no matter how old you are.

Below $20

I wish I’ve seen these over 100 personalized christmas gift ideas under $20 when we had our white elephant game a few weeks ago! To be fair, our entries were a hit but still, I find these holiday gift ideas really cute. My girl friends are into Christmas decors that remind them of their childhood days. These will definitely take them to a trip down to memory lane.

Lost in Space

My husband is into modern furniture. While I prefer shabby chic and country cottages, he’s always on the look out for art deco or anything that has clean, simple lines. Oddly enough, the simpler the furniture, the more expensive it gets. He thinks these outdoor chairs pretty are cool and I admit that they are. Such a work of art and I admire the designers of these pieces. However, I think they are best displayed in a gallery. They are so modern they remind me of spaceships and other futuristic furniture in space.

If we’re going to spend our hard-earned dollars on modern furniture, I would prefer that we get something like these instead. It’s a cross between modern and contemporary and best of all, we’d both enjoy it.

It’s Beginning to Feel

If you finished that title with “a lot like Christmas,” then you are correct. Christmas cards should be in the mail already according to some web sites that make the rules for those sorts of things. Although, I wonder how many people get Christmas cards on December 26th and think to themselves, “How dare she wait so long to send this to me!” I had bought some a few years ago, and ended up putting them away in a drawer and never sending them at all.

I found this website though where they will print out your cards and ship them to you the very next day. This means no running to the store at the last minute to buy a mismatched set of cards to hand out to friends and family. I can even have them print a family picture and Christmas message on postcards and send them out with cheaper postage than the cards in envelopes always take.
