Where to find 6 DIY Crafts For Men And Women - DIY Gift Guide

Hi There..... Are you ready for a whole new kind of gift guide? Are you a fan of DIY crafts?


Well, at least on my blog it’s a new type of gift guide. Since I am quite creative myself, I thought, why not give you some ideas for DIY Crafts? 😉

Perhaps, browsing some new shops could bring some new ideas? Although, my brain sometimes has too many ideas, and it seems there are not enough hours in a day. 😧

It has become worse since I moved. Yes, it’s a regular disaster, and I am torn. Maybe I should stop being creative and restrict myself to only watching television. No more blogs or gift guides. Doesn’t this sound like the perfect idea? 😁

Are you crazy? I would lose my mind for sure. Oh my, I wonder what that would look like. I’d most likely give myself a heart attack looking in the mirror. No, it’s bad enough as it is. Besides, who says I will still be able to see. 😂

You must agree it’s not an option to stop crafting if you are into knitting, sewing, making music, drawing, painting, or DIY crafts. Ah, you are wondering why it got worse since we moved. 😮

For almost 5 years, we stashed my keyboard in our basement. Why would I do something like that? I could either choose to make room for my keyboard or a bed for my granddaughter. 😐

You may think I am crazy, but my grandchild is far more important, and there were enough other craft options for me. 😍

This time, there weren’t that many businesses that responded to my pitch, so this DIY gift guide isn’t extensive, but as Plato once said, “The greatest wealth is to live content with little”. 😎

DIY Knit Scarf Kit $125.00



I was taught to knit by my yoga teacher. She was giving a 4-week course on the basics of knitting - while emphasizing the meditative qualities and mindfulness that knitting provides. To say that I loved it is an understatement. I enjoyed the process of knitting as well as the products that I was making with my newly acquired knitting skills.

One day, during an internet search - looking for knitting ideas - I came across the idea of extreme knitting and I was hooked. Extreme knitting is knitting that is done with large needles and oversized yarn. I began creating throws for family and friends - using larger needles and my Yummy custom-made, oversized, 100% merino wool yarn. The response to my blankets was so positive that I decided to turn my passion into a business and started It’s a…Yummy.

We believe beauty is in the details. The quality of our wool, the size and color of our yarn, and the weave of our knit contribute to the uniqueness of our creations. Additionally, we hand-knit all of our products to ensure each piece is a beautiful and usable work of art. Our philosophy at It’s a…Yummy is simple: Color + Texture = Yummy!!!

Make your own Yummy Knit Scarf with this knitting kit. Each kit contains Yummy yarn in Natural, project-specific knitting needles, and the project pattern - as well as a cotton canvas Yummy logoed tote bag.

This kit is a great way to create your winter scarf with Yummy yarn. It is a fun and creative way to relax and be mindful!

Crafts Create Change Book $29.97



Before writing Dear God Are We There Yet? and launching the volunteer community, I was deeply invested in the fashion industry. I had some amazing opportunities with Favala Designs and Fashion is a Business with being featured on the Dr. Oz Show, Black Shopping Network Channel, endless publications, and various fashion weeks around the world. Fast forward, my life hit tragedy when I had a hysterectomy at the age of 29 leaving me in a deep depression because I would no longer be able to have children.
An idea in a car ride developed into opening Florida's first fashion design and sewing school for children. Using my passion for fashion and crafts, I was able to create change in communities, families, and future generations. After closing that chapter in my life, I began writing and creating 'Dear God Are We There Yet?', but I knew that one day I would go back to my fashion roots. I am so excited to launch my very own sewing and crafts book inspiring people to create life-changing projects that will support organizations, communities and enrich people’s lives. These projects are perfect for all ages and skill levels and give you the opportunity to donate to people in need locally or internationally.

This book is not just any craft book. In fact, it’s so much more than a craft book. It’s a tool for positive change in your community and in the world. Alicia Sanchez, Founder of 'Dear God, Are We There Yet?', volunteer travel community,  shows crafters and sewing enthusiasts how to identify opportunities for change around them and how to use their hands and creativity to make those changes happen.
These sewing & craft projects are easy enough for people of all ages and skill levels to complete. Alicia also provides additional online resources: such as step-by-step instructional videos for each project and a donation directory for finding where to donate the handicrafts you create.

Interview with Fashion Stylist Jenn Rosado

Hi There..... Are you in for a new fashion stylist interview? In or not, you will have to be ok with my deep dive into the fashion industry. 


Or you could stop reading, of course, who cares. Close my blog post if you like. It's of no importance to me. 😎

No wait, I was just kidding. Of course, I want you to read this fashion stylist's interview. Even better, the more you read, the happier I become. 😃

Ah yes, I have built up quite some reading material over the years. In August I am celebrating my 5th blog birthday. If you have any suggestions on how to celebrate this event, let me know in the comments. 😊

For all I know, I might even take your idea into consideration. Are there shops also celebrating their 5th anniversary? It could be a plan to do a giveaway together. Oh yes, I know, sometimes I come up with the weirdest ideas. Strange people do strange things, don't they? 😁

Enough chit-chat, let's talk about Jenn Rosado, the 36-year-old fashion stylist I am featuring on my blog today. 😍



What is your function, and the company you work for?  

I am an Editorial/Celebrity Stylist, so I either put together clothing stories for magazines or I am dressing actors for all kinds of events - from Red Carpet to a big audition to a cast dinner.

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

See the answer to question 1!

What made you decide to become a Fashion Stylist?

I was always creative and did musical theater throughout high school. After graduating, I was looking for another outlet to channel that creativity. I always loved to shop and coordinate clothes. 

When I was about 19, I remember working in a restaurant and someone mentioning that I should be a designer. I knew I couldn't draw to save my life nor was I interested in learning, but was looking for similar careers and ran into styling and the rest is history.

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Fashion is important, but I would say that STYLE makes fashion. Without style, I think fashion would be like a Christmas Tree with no ornaments 

What are your successes and how did you achieve them?

My successes are certainly still coming. I remember my first Red Carpet and thinking - Holy Moly!! I suppose successes come from recognition for doing your job well, so I would say every time I am hired for a new job, I consider that a success.

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

The name of the brand is never important to me. It's all about how you wear an outfit and not who made it. Although, never underestimate the statement of a good designer piece!

Describe your personal style of clothing?

I would consider my style to be mostly City Boho but influenced by everything.

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

The music I was listening to influenced my style in the early 20s. I was listening to lots of Joplin, Hendrix, and The Beatles while learning about Frida Kahlo, Dali, and Gaudi. I definitely wanted to be a "hippie" and thought that I was born in the wrong generation for a while.

I'm not sure if I have a signature LOOK but I certainly have STAPLES. 
- A dark nail (pretty much year-round)
- White flowy dresses in the summer 
- Knee-high boots for fall and winter

In what way do you influence other people’s clothing style?

It is my job to influence people's choices in what they wear. It's my job to educate people into what would be the most flattering and stylish look according to their body type and personal style.

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

I am loving the direction pants are taking! I love a good trousers moment.
Oh, and Loafers!! Love a loafer!!

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

I hate how disposable clothing has gotten! I am watching girls reveal hauls of clothing that I know are going to be in the trash by the end of the season. While the brand is not important, we should invest in quality pieces that will last and become part of our forever closets! I am a big believer in FOREVER PIECES 

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

My fashion advice would be to tailor everything!!! This is going to make a $30 piece look like a $300 piece and completely elevate your wardrobe.

Who is your style icon and why?

Fashion Icons - Bianca Jagger, June Ambrose,  Patti Wilson, Rachel Zoe 
These are just a few of my influences in fashion

Is there something else you would like to share with us?

TAILOR TAILOR TAILOR!!!!!!

Thanks, Jenn Rosado, for taking the time to answer my questions. I love your Instagram feed. You have lots of magnificent pictures on it. 😍

Where To Find Eco Friendly Scented Candles - Obsidian The Signature BLK

Hi There..... Are you a romantic soul? Would you love dinner at candlelight? How about scented candles?


I am a hopeless romantic. I believe in love at first sight and that there is just one perfect partner out there who will sweep me off my feet. 💏

That one special person who would prepare dinner at candlelight for me with rose petals scattered all around. Sounds of the sea in the background, a special romantic handwritten card, and last but not least an enormous bouquet. Dream on, baby. ⛅

I have been married for almost 36 years, and it has not happened yet. Nah, just kidding, no regrets, I love him to pieces, and occasionally we light some scented candles. There is something magical about candlelight. 😃

That reminds me of the major blackout we had about 15 years ago. It wasn’t only in Belgium but also across major parts of Europe. It lasted up to 120 hours. I can tell you, that’s a long time to enjoy dinners at candlelight. Good thing that we had a lot of flashlights lying around. 😉

Now, how about I tell you some more about one of those scented candles Obsidian The Signature BLK gifted me in exchange for my honest opinion? 😍

https://www.obsidianthesignatureblk.com/product-page/i-am-thankful-for

The name

Our creator chose the name OBSIDIAN because of its Beauty! It Possesses unique qualities having been Forged in the fires of the Earth. Although, a glass, it is strong. Smooth yet sharp. Jet BLACK in color. Black is beautiful! Black is Mysterious! Black is elegant!

What type of wax is used?

We use Coconut Apricot and Coconut wax in all of our candles outside of the Hemp Line. Candles in the Hemp Line are made with Hemp Seed Oil, Coconut, and Soy wax all blended together. 

Picture by Seadbeady

I Am Thankful For...

This is an open-ended statement because it's personal. What are you thankful for? These scented candles smell like thankfulness! Family! And Love! They smell like holidays and laughter! Like good food. Apple pie! They smell like family games and holiday movies!

Top: Clementine, Peach, Apple, Clove
Middle: Bee Pollen, Golden Honey, Plum
Base: Vanilla, Almond, Applewood

Available in 6oz and 12 oz.
All our vessels and tins can be repurposed for other uses once your candle has been burned through to the end.

Hand Poured

Each of our scented candles is made with love and care, I hand pour each and every one. Keeping all this in mind, there may be small imperfections such as off-center labels or slight discoloration in your wax. Please know this does not affect the quality of the candle. Enjoy!

Eco Friendly

We are eco-friendly in that we intentionally source and use products that are as clean as we can get them. All of our candles contain NO Prop 65 ingredients, NO Carcinogens, NO Mutagens, and NO Reproductive, organ or acute toxins.
Vegan and cruelty-free all the way!

Tip for maximum use

*To be sure you can enjoy your scented candles at their max, be sure to trim your wick ¼” each time before lighting. This helps to reduce soot. Also, only lighting for a max of 4 hours at a time helps with the life of your candles and their performance. We want you to enjoy the candlelight as long as possible! The scents are just that amazing!

Picture by Seadbeady

My opinion on the I Am Thankful For...

The scent of this candle fills the entire room with the wonderful smell of citrus fruits and apple pie. What can I say, I just love it, and the sound of the crackling is so relaxing. It would be perfect for a warm night when you decide to stay outside until dark. 😊

Be careful though, the scent might attract hungry neighbors. 😂

Picture by Seadbeady

What I also love is that they are eco-friendly, and you can repurpose these scented candles into many things. There are lots of suggestions on the website. I think I will use it as a jewelry box. 😀

Last but not least, here is a short YouTube video to enjoy the candlelight with its crackling sound. 😍


Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel, because I only have 2 fans at the moment. 😜

Hope you like my blog.....Until next time.....Have a nice day

Where To Find Quality Men's Shirts And Women's Track Pants In The Netherlands

Hi There..... Are you looking for men’s shirts? Perhaps you need something quite different, like women’s track pants?


No panic, I am telling you a little about both today. Ah yes, women are excellent at multitasking. So am I, since I can write, breathe, think, eat a biscuit and look at my screen all at the same time. 😏

Incredible, isn’t it, and I bet you didn’t even hear the crackling sound of my delicious biscuit? No, I am not sharing an ASMR video of me devouring biscuits, that’s for sure. 😂

This blog is about men’s shirts and women’s track pants, and it is absolutely soundless. Ok, unless you decide to produce some sounds yourself. You may ask why. It’s my gesture to the men reading my blog. I swear, it’s the truth. 😉

If I don’t include sound, that’s one task less for them to do. It would be very inconsiderate of me, not to customize my blog to everyone’s needs. That doesn’t mean you can burden me with all kinds of requests, because good-hearted people like me also have their limits. 😁

Ok, back to business. Have you heard the good news? 😮

HemdVoorHem opened again! They sent me these women's track pants as a gift, in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍


Women's night and lounge fashion

Comfort for in and around the house, but also for sleeping. Nightwear is not only used for sleeping but often also super comfortable to wear around the house on a lazy day or to slip into after a hard day's work. 

It is also nice to wear comfortable loungewear when working from home. We look for the nicest and most comfortable pieces of clothing for you to wear in your home, but with which you also look nice.


Tommy Hilfiger women's track pants

Dark blue Tommy Hilfiger ladies Authentic track pants for a style upgrade in your home outfit in these terry lounge pants, with a cool edge logo tape along the legs. 

These regular-weight joggers are made from a comfortable cotton blend and feature an elasticized drawstring waist and rib-knit leg cuffs. 

A tape with a repeating Tommy Hilfiger logo runs along the side of both trouser legs and, of course, they also included pockets on the side. Lovely pants for leisure and easy to combine with a sweater, cardigan, or T-shirt.


My opinion on the women's track pants

Don't they look stylish? They are also super comfortable. The fit is snug without being too tight, allowing for plenty of movement and comfort. I love you can adjust them to your liking with the drawstring cord. Because of their stylish look, I can use them both indoors and outdoors. 😃

The rib cuffs are great because they adhere to your body better and keep the cold out and the warmth in. Agreed that they are a little more expensive, but if you are looking for quality, you shouldn't hesitate to buy these pants. 😍

Non-iron shirts campaign

HemdVoorHem is running a special non-iron shirts campaign starting from Tuesday 15 February. Since the government's work from home advice expires, they extended the opening hours for the catering industry, and the event sector can re-open.

"from loungewear to shirts"

Shirts that feel like a T-shirt with the convenience of not having to iron them. Non-iron shirts made of 100% cotton; Who would not want that?

HemdVoorHem.nl has a beautiful collection of non-iron shirts in all shapes and sizes. In our online store, you will find the best shirts at the best prices.

Hoe Bepaal Je Welk Vrouwen Parfum Best Bij Je Past - Beauty Pauze - Geuren Quiz

Hallo daar..... Ben je op zoek naar een nieuw vrouwen parfum? Zou je meer willen weten over de dames geuren quiz die ik gisteren deed?


Aangezien ik gisteren een ontmoeting had met Cara Peeters van Beauty pauze, leek het me wel leuk om wat last-minute Valentine's geschenk ideeën te delen. Elke vrouw wordt toch graag verwend? Zou ze nee zeggen tegen een nieuw vrouwen parfum als geschenk? Dat betwijfel ik toch. 😉


Een deel van mij keek er naar uit om Cara te ontmoeten. Het was de eerste keer dat ik iemand ging ontmoeten met het oog op een blog post. Daarom ook dat een ander deel van mij er helemaal niet naar uitkeek. Oh ja, ik heb een gespleten persoonlijkheid. Nee, natuurlijk niet. Of wel? 😰

Misschien kan ik me beter nader verklaren, de Blogger, Influencer was enthusiast, maar de schuchtere kant van mij, die ik tracht verborgen te houden, keek er tegenop iemand nieuw te ontmoeten. Klein innerlijk conflict, maar de nieuwsgierige ik won deze keer. Is dat niet geweldig? Stel je voor wat er zou gebeurt zijn anders. Ja niks uiteraard. 😎

Wie is Cara Peeters?

Ze is een onafhankelijke partner van LR.
Ze zijn een van Europa's toonaangevende directe verkoopondernemingen. Hun hoogwaardige "Gemaakt in Duitsland" gezondheids- en schoonheidsproducten, evenals hun unieke zakelijke kansen, wekken enthousiasme bij miljoenen klanten en duizenden verkooppartners over de hele wereld.

De ontmoeting

Zodra Cara de deur opende, begonnen we te praten over vanalles en nog wat dat ik niet deel in deze blogpost, maar we hadden het ook veel over dames geuren en vrouwen parfum. Eerst gaf ze me een paper met een quiz. 😊


Afhankelijk van mijn keuzes (A, B, C, or D), kon ze bepalen wel type parfum het best bij mij zou passen. 
Ik was blijkbaar een D type. Een beetje deprimerend als je jezelf altijd als een A hebt beschouwd. 😂

 Ok, ik kon 7 dames geuren uitproberen die onder type D vielen. Ze gaf me een boekje met strookjes om eerst op te spuiten vooraleer ik ze op mijn huid zou proberen. Er waren 2 geuren die me het meest aanspraken. Ik deed de ene op mijn linker pols en de andere op mijn rechter. Kwestie van een beetje in evenwicht te blijven. 😀



Sensual Grace

Fascinerende geur die verleidt tot dromen
Sensueel boeket van pruimen-, heliotroop-, gourmand- en vanillenoten
Geur: bloemig, groen, elegant
Geurkarakter: vrouwelijk, mysterieus
Voor vrouwen met een gevoel voor elegantie en gratie

Een interpretatie van moderne vrouwelijkheid, elegantie en mysterieuze sensualiteit. Sensual Grace is een
fascinerende geur van roos, vanille, sensuele jasmijn en een kostbare, aromatisch-zoete gourmandnoot.
Een betoverend parfum dat je verleidt om te dromen en je sensuele, vrouwelijke uitstraling elegant accentueert.



Mijn mening over de Sensual Grace

Hij kwam wel behoorlijk straf over in het begin, maar dat beterde na enkele minuten. De geur van dit parfum bleef ongeveer 10 uur op mijn pols hangen. Ik was volledig voor deze dames geur gewonnen, maar mijn man vond dit de mindere van de 2 die ik probeerde. 😕

Santorini

Geur: Bloemig - Fruitig
Pure betovering met fresia, jasmijn en muskus

LR Classics Santorini Eau de Parfum - als een zonsondergang die de zintuigen boeit.

Het betoverende eiland is de naam voor een geur die met zijn bloemig-warme intensiteit doet denken aan een Griekse zomerdag met turquoise blauwe lucht en kristalheldere zee. Verleidelijke fresia's worden getransformeerd in een weelderig hart van jasmijn, perfect afgerond door muskus.


Mijn mening over de Santorini

Ik hield ervan hoe zacht en bloemig deze geur was. Hoewel deze bij mij op de tweede plaats kwam, kon ik na ongeveer 12 uur nog steeds de geur op mijn pols oppikken, wat een enorm pluspunt is. Een ander belangrijk feit is dat mijn man deze het lekkerst vond. 😍

Conclusie

Dit was zo'n leuke test. Voordat ik echter mijn definitieve beslissing neem, ga ik de andere 5 van type D ook eens op mijn pols uitproberen.

Woon je in België of Nederland, niet al te ver van Hamme (bij Dendermonde, Sint Niklaas), en vind je het moeilijk om te bepalen welk vrouwen parfum te gebruiken, dan zou ik een afspraak maken met Cara. Je kan gemakkelijk contact met haar opnemen door op de link tree op haar Instagram-profiel te klikken.

Weet je al wat jouw favoriete dames geuren zijn, dan kan je gewoon ook zonder probleem naar haar website gaan.



Ze heeft trouwens naast vrouwen parfum ook een mooie reeks mannen parfums om uit te kiezen. Daar deel ik binnenkort nog wel een blog post over.

Momenteel kan je ook een interessante promotie op haar website vinden voor Valentijn. 
Mix-set van 2 voor 45,99 €
Kies uit onze designer Eau de Parfums.

How to Determine Your Type of Women's Perfume - Beauty Pauze - Scent Quiz

Hi There..... Are you looking for a fresh scent? Would you like to learn some more about the women's perfume quiz I took today?


Since I met up with Cara Peeters from Beauty pauze today, I thought it would be great to share some last-minute Valentine's gift ideas. Doesn't every woman love to be pampered? Would she say no to a new women's perfume as a gift? Somehow, I highly doubt it. 😉

A part of me was incredibly excited to meet Cara. This was the first time I would meet someone in person for a blog post. That's why the other part of me wasn't looking forward to it. Oh yes, I have a split personality disorder. Nah, of course not. Or do I? 😰

Let me explain, the Blogger, Influencer in me was enthusiastic, but the shy person, I try to keep hidden, was anxious about meeting somebody new. Minor inner conflict, but the curious me won this time. Isn't that great? Imagine what would have happened otherwise. Duh, nothing, of course. 😎

Who is Cara Peeters?

She is an independent partner of LR.
They are one of Europe’s leading direct sales enterprises. Their high-quality “Made in Germany” health and beauty products, as well as their unique business opportunities, spark enthusiasm among millions of customers and thousands of sales partners worldwide. 

The meeting

As soon as Cara opened the door, we started talking about a million things that I am not sharing in this blog post, but we also talked a lot about scents and women's perfume. At first, she gave me a paper with a quiz. 😊


Depending on what I picked most (A, B, C, or D), she could determine which type of perfume would work best for me. 
It seemed I was the D type. A little depressing if you have always thought of yourself as an A. 😂

 Ok, so I got to try out the 7 scents listed under D. She gave me some cards to spray on at first, and there were 2 that stood out for me. I put one of them on my left wrist, and the other on my right. 😀



Sensual Grace

A fascinating scent that tempts to dream
Sensual bouquet of plum, heliotrope, gourmand, and vanilla.
Fragrance: floral, green, elegant
Fragrance Character: Feminine, Mysterious
For women with a sense of elegance and grace

An interpretation of modern femininity, elegance, and mysterious sensuality. Sensual Grace is a
fascinating scent of rose, vanilla, sensual jasmine, and a precious, aromatic-sweet gourmand note.
An enchanting perfume that tempts you to dream and elegantly accentuates your sensual, feminine appearance.



My opinion on the Sensual Grace

It comes on pretty strong in the beginning but gets better after a few minutes. The scent of this perfume lingered on my wrist for about 10 hours. This one completely won me over, but my husband found this to be the lesser one of the 2 I tried. 😕

Santorini

Fragrance: Floral - Fruity
Pure enchantment with freesia, jasmine, and musk

LR Classics Santorini Eau de Parfum - like a sunset that captivates the senses.

The enchanting island is the name for a fragrance that, with its floral-warm intensity, is reminiscent of a Greek summer day with turquoise blue sky and crystal clear sea. Seductive freesias transformed into a luscious heart of jasmine, perfectly rounded off by musk.


My opinion on the Santorini

I loved how soft and floral this one was. Even though it came in second, I could still pick up the scent on my wrist after about 12 hours, which is a huge plus. Another important fact is that my husband liked this one best. 😍

Conclusion

This was such a fun test. Before I am making my final decision, though, I am going to try out the other 5 from type D on my wrist. 

If you live in Belgium or the Netherlands, not too far from Hamme (near Dendermonde, Sint Niklaas), and you are having a hard time figuring out which perfume to use, I would schedule an appointment with Cara. You can easily contact her by clicking on the link tree on her Instagram profile.

If you already know what your favorite perfume scents are, you can browse her website.



By the way, besides women's perfumes, she also has a nice range of men's perfumes to choose from. I will share more on those in another blog post.
