incredible art and rooms with incredible pops of turquoise. Doesn't the art have an intense water color feel? Love that!

getting rid of everything!

Do you ever get that urge to change everything in sight? I haven't in a LONG time. But it hit me yesterday. As I looked around I was getting rid of this, and that and

looking at holes in the wall where pictures once hung and I started to feel a little sad because I've been really happy with our house lately..


so I went and put it all back. Phew. Decorating crisis averted.


How do you get through those urges? ( I used to spend days rearranging and in turn making myself crazy! )

objections



I know you all have listened to me talk about Stella & Dot.. I have a new stylist joining right now who is a full time career woman. Everyone has their own reasons for joining Stella & Dot. This is a business you can have as a hobby or a full time career. I'm not kidding! You set the pace. There's no monthly quota, or annoying sponsors hounding you. Are you kidding? It would be me..I'm lovely ;)


Anyway, the point, I was reading through my stylist mag and found a little write up on objections and had to share this excerpt...


" I had many reasons why Stella & Dot wouldn't work for me:


1. I haven't had a job in 10 years and no time with my three young children.


2. My husband travels, so it would be very hard to hold trunk shows in the evenings.


3. It sounds too good to be true.


4. I was a MOM. I really didn't see myself as anything else!

But after I talked to my sponsor, I also saw an opportunity, with little risk and decided it was worth a try. After one year, I am so glad I listened to that little voice inside me. I went from earning enough to buy wallpaper to actually making a financial contribution to my family. My biggest monthly paycheck of $4000, which I am working to make $5000! Most importantly I really love what I am doing, I'm growing personally and as a leader, and have a great sense of fulfillment."


-PATSY KLEIN, Star Stylist, MO

a new hue














I find myself quite suddenly and out of nowhere infatuated with orange.
I've added coral to my closet, peach to my blush, bronzer to my daily routine. It hasn't entered my decor yet, but I'm thinking it would play really nicely off the creams and blue!
