Shopping for things

So, recently I found out about Temu. I know, I know, I had no idea that Temu even exited until one day I was watching youtube videos in my bedroom. I had just finished watching a video and youtube suggested a Temu haul video. Well, I’m not sure why it suggested one of those videos but I thought wth, I might as well see what that’s about. Now mind you, I don’t do too much shopping online unless it’s something hubs or I really need or want. I mostly look for car parts for hubs online because we can find the parts much cheaper online than in a regular shop.

But I like to shop for all sorts of things. Mostly craft tools and things I might run out of when crafting like glue sticks for example. I use a lot of paper in my junk journals and I do a lot of gluing down when creating them. So, I am always running out of glue sticks, lol.

Years ago I found Ebay and started shopping for items on there. I was really into nail art and painting my nails so I bought  A LOT of nail painting tools like nail polish, nail art stamps, flat beads and gems for decorating nails, etc… And to this day, I haven’t used any of that nail art stuff except for maybe once the whole time I’ve had them. Go figure, lol.

These days I’m into buying wigs. Many years ago I used to love wearing wigs because I had really short hair at one time and wanted to have long hair again so I bought a few wigs to wear. Now as I’m getting older I notice that my hair is starting to thin out. It might be because of how I wear my hair all the time though. After cutting it so many times I have decided to let it grow long and instead of messing with it I just tie it in a pony tail on top of my head.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to buy a wig from Temu. It’s a short shaggy type wig in pink and white colors and when I got it the other day I was surprised by the quality of the wig considering how cheap it cost. The color of the wig is something I never thought I would wear because I thought people might laugh at me. But this wig is so pretty and chic looking that I wouldn’t care if anyone laughed at all. In fact I think I would get lots of compliments instead:

I would wear it now but it’s too hot outside with temperatures in the 90’s and with the high humidity I would be dripping in sweat trying to wear it, lol. Nope, I will wait until cooler weather comes to make my wig debut, lol. Hubs hasn’t even seen it yet and he would probably laugh at me. He doesn’t like wigs and says I don’t need to wear one but he hasn’t stopped me from buying any either, lol. So we’ll see what he has to say when I actually wear one in public. And so far I think I have purchased over 20 wigs in all colors and sizes. Almost all the wigs I buy have bangs so they are quick to throw on and wear without having to do much too them. Maybe have to trim the bangs on some but other than that, they are ready to go.

I love shopping online but sometimes I will find the same thing I need at a thrift store much cheaper. That happened to me one day when I was at a Goodwill. I love my crafts and have a lot of acrylic and wood stamps that I have purchased over the years. But one day at Goodwill I found a large bag FULL of wooden stamps that were mostly from StampinUp!

At the Goodwill I have found a lot of stuff that I had been looking for for years and never in a million years thought I would find it at a Goodwill store, lol. Lucky I guess. Anyway, I think I’ve bored you long enough, lol. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Pink Nails

You know, now that I have a cell phone and can use it, I keep forgetting all the things I can actually do with it. Like snapping pictures and uploading them to my Google Drive. This morning in the middle of sharing images in my paid members area I decided to paint my nails a pink color.

Now I have a few shades of pink that I like and some that I bought THINKING that I would like them but I did not, lol. But anyway, this morning I decided to use a pink metal nail polish on my nails. I snapped a couple of pictures with my phone so I could show them to you.

Pink Metal Nails

Over the years I have realized that I need some reading glasses so I can actually see what I am doing closeup, lol. After taking this photo I can see where I got some polish on my fingers, lol. I will use a nail polish corrector stick to fix that in a few minutes but I really like the color. Last week I painted them navy blue and I was surprised at how much I liked them with that color.

Anyway, I just wanted to show off my pretty nail polish today. I might have done a crappy job of painting them but hey, I can fix that. Have a great day today and hugs,

A New Fashion Tag

This morning I grabbed one of the MANY blonde hair fashion images that I created and thought I would make a new tag out of it. Now, most of the time when I start making a tag I will look carefully at the image and think how I could make a tag that really showcases the image. Well, I decided on using muted colors when making this particular tag because the image itself was pretty muted in it’s colors.

So, I took some of the images and backgrounds from one of my tagger kits and changed the colors of all those images to match this tag. I think it turned out pretty good (if I do say so myself, lol). And just so you know, the image I used in making this tag (along with lots more fashion images) are all available inside my paid members area at my other site located HERE.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,
