DIY Rings

Above the knuckle rings are so popular these days that I thought I'd share an easy ring that I made this weekend.  It's really simple and takes less than 10 minutes to make and costs around $5.00.

Here is what you need:
- Chain - use any color and style you like.  An even better idea would be to spray paint the chain a fun color!
- Pliers
- Jewelry cutter
- Optional tape measure

First step is to wrap the chain around your finger to measure the length it needs to be.  I like to make it at least one link smaller because you'll be adding the jump ring.  You can even use a tape measure and wrap it around your finger to get the desired length.

Once you've determined the size cut the chain.  Next take the jump ring and connect the two ends.  Viola, a new knuckle ring!

Let's talk about holiday parties.  I'm very lucky to work from home, but because were such a small company and holiday party would include two people, my mom and I, dressing up is out of the question.  I've always been a little jealous of those that get to work with others and outside of the home.  So this year I'm going to live vicariously through all of you that get to have a work holiday party this year!

I've put together a few items that I think would be perfect to wear this season.  A couple festive nail polishes, glamorous clothes and some fabulous jewelry!

I'd love to hear any of your holiday party moments and what you'll be wearing this year!

Cider

Fall is here...there's no denying it.  The crisp air in the morning, a few leaves changing colors and the presence of Apple Cider.  I've never been a real fan of drinking apple cider "straight" from the container.  So I always add spices to mine and heat it up for a nice warm beverage.  Mmm..I can imagine it now, a steaming cup of warm spiced cider and a good book. 

I thought I'd do a nice post on a few yummy cider recipes that you can make at home, enjoy :)

Simple Hot Apple Cider -via

 Now this is my all time favorite apple cider, plan and simple.  Here's an easy recipe for you to follow from Food Doodles:

Simple Spiced Hot Apple Cider

• 4C apple cider
• 2 large cinnamon sticks
• 1/2 – 3/4 tsp whole cloves
• a couple whole allspice berries
• skin of 1/2 a navel orange removed using a vegetable peeler, fresh or dried
• 2-4 tbsp honey, or to taste depending on the sweetness of your original apple cider
• 1/4 tsp freshly ground nutmeg plus more to sprinkle over top if desired
• water if desired

In a small pot over medium-low heat add the apple cider, all the spices and the orange skin.  Slowly bring to a boil and then turn down to a very slow simmer for 10-15 minutes.  Remove from the heat and taste before stirring in the honey if needed and let sit to cool slightly if desired.  If not, serve immediately, being sure to strain out all the spices and orange peel.  I find our local apple cider to be very strong so I always add a little water especially to the kids drinks but do so to taste if needed.  Sprinkle a tiny pinch of freshly grated nutmeg over top if desired and serve with a cinnamon stick.
You can also increase the recipe if desired and place in a crockpot on low for 4+ hours if desired.  Any leftover hot apple cider can be strained to remove the flavorings and stored in the fridge to be reheated, or even frozen to drink another day or to use in baking.

Halloween 2012

Let's talk about how bad I've been at blogging lately.  I've gone through a lot of changes lately, personally and professionally, and it has taken a little toll on getting back into the blog world.  But enough about me, let's talk about Halloween!  I know it's September, and maybe a little soon..but Halloween is right around the corner, and we need to get started on deciding what your going to wear :)

We launched our Halloween styles on September 7th and have a several styles left up for grabs.  Let's talk about different costume designs.  Now I know you can head off to the local store and pick up a $50 outfit, by why not search your own closet for something and just purchase a few small pieces (in the end saving a little moola). 

In our witch costume we put together to ensemble, one with a long flowing skirt and the other with skinny black pants.  Pick out your black pieces and pair them with a bright or edgy shoe.  We also paired the outfit with our mini Witch Necklace, a broom and a mini witch hat.  Talk about a one of a kind outfit!  Here is a makeup tutorial for a "sexy" witch look!



Mini Witch Necklace - $18



 Next is our Robot costume!  Now this one is a fun one, most robots are silver but why not change it up?!  Pick out a single metallic color from your closet and pair it with a matching color wig.  Try out some great make up to bring the look over the top. 

We paired these outfits with our Robot necklace, gloves, and a headband.

Robot Necklace - $20 each

Now aren't these great!  We'll come up with a few other ideas for you and post them before Halloween:)
