I can’t help it, I love pretty things. It’s why I follow countless blogs, on topics ranging from parties to food, fashion to makeup. One of my favorite fashion blogs out there is Fashion-Isha. Sharon’s writing is funny and interesting, and she showcases fabulous fashion in wonderful taste. Women who value modesty will especially appreciate her refined style. Sharon shows us how to look gorgeous while still emphasizing inner beauty and grace.
Here’s Sharon with Jessica Alba!

Debbie from Wants and Wishes shared with us an incredible Valentine’s Party printable collection that she designed.
This party is setup in 2 parts: the dessert table that is filled with sweets and treats that are cupid worthy, and a Valentine station…. aka Cupid’s post office… where the kids can make valentines and “deliver” them to everybody’s mailboxes.
In Debbie’s words…
Since Cupid’s post office was our theme we incorporated postal items including candy bar wrappers that look like an envelope, post card and stamps. My favorite one is the 5 things I heart about you. You can write your top 5 things you love about your valentine! The favor toppers are square like a postage stamp and has the seal of delivered from Cupid’s Post Office on it. Also, we included hearts and arrows throughout the collection, like our shot through the heart brownies and arrow garlands. We cut heart shaped brownies and stuck an arrow through it! We created arrows out of paper straws and the arrow points and heart “feathers” are included in our
Valentine collection. They are very easy and fun to make! This would be a great activity to do with all the kids as well! We have fun heart boxes that you can fill with treats and a little note to give to your valentines! My favorite part… well one of my favorites is our heart cupcake toppers. They are 3 dimensional heart pockets!!!! Fill with candy and a little note to send some love this Valentine’s Day on top of your cupcakes! We have also used our heart pockets attached to a box or attached them to twigs and fill them with candy and love notes that the kids could take off the tree. We will be having 14 days of how to use our
printable Valentine collection for your Valentines at

For Cupid’s post office we created a red and pink stripe awning to invite the kids in to sit and make their valentines. The back drop was a hand drawn chair rail and paneling on butcher paper and red and white stripe wrapping paper as the “wallpaper”. We strung garlands, rick rack and mailboxes from the awning. We wanted a spot where the kids could create their valentines. They had array of contains (boxes, paper bags and clear bags) candy and valentines to make, allowing them to create a special valentine for each one on your list!

I found a really fun social network, I think you’ll love it and I wanted to share it with you. Pinspire is a new way to browse and share beautiful images. Blogs use it to get traffic, and users just have fun browsing it. It’s a lot like google images and twitter combined: where users can post interesting pictures, and visitors can follow their posts, and also follow back to their blog .
The concept is simple you see a picture you like you can pin it into an album and share it with the world. Organize your favorite images into collections, and browse other people’s collections. Check out my new Food collection. Makes me hungry!
I love browsing and finding beautiful images. Here’s my new Design collection.
Pinspire is a much better way to search for images, and it’s a fantastic way to bring free traffic to your blog.
