How do you like your neck? That way I am able to face the mirror each time I pass by because. In the past, when I did lay eyes on my bare neck, I squint my eyes so that if anything really bad is looking back at me, I am already halfway to closing my eyes to ward off “Life goes quick”, we often hear.

LIVES THROUGH BOOKS Sometimes it might feel the world falls upon your head. Other times one is so excited you can hardly sleep. Whether it’s just another same old same day or an eventful day, keeping a journal is like using a compass. It might help to create and maintain a sense of order in one’s life. You get to know yourself by revealing your most private fears, thoughts, and feelings. Look at your writing time as personal relaxation time. It's a time when you can destress and wind down.


”I wonder if, a hundred years from now, anybody will win a victory over anything because of something I left or did. It is an inspiring thought.” Keeping a diary during the Victorian era was common for both men and women, possibly more than today, but the exact numbers are impossible to quantify. Through out the ages people kept dairies for various reasons. Victorians, beside writing also drew and embellished their diaries. It was not uncommon for them to craft illustrations or decorations on anything that had a surface. These “creating effects,” is similar to our present day scrapbooking for journals. It’s basically Martha Stewart before Martha Stewart. One such is the diary of Emily Climbs. I always find it fascinating reading excepts from various journals such as these. For a split second in time, one is transferred back to a time and captured in an era of which you for that moment become a part of – how nostalgic can it get? "I have been neglecting my diary of late. One does not have a great deal of spare time at Aunt Ruth's. But it is Friday night and I couldn't go home for the week-end so I come to my diary for comforting.

"I love a storm like this at night when I don't have to go out in it," wrote Emily. "Cousin Jimmy and I had a splendid evening planning out our garden and choosing our seeds and plants in the catalogue. Just where the biggest drift is making, behind the summer-house, we are going to have a bed of pink asters, and we are going to give the Golden Ones--who are dreaming under four feet of snow--a background of flowering almond. I love to plan out summer days like this, in the midst of a storm. It makes me feel as if I were winning a victory over something ever so much bigger than myself, just because I have a brain and the storm is nothing but blind, white force--terrible, but blind. I have the same feeling when I sit here cosily by my own dear fire, and hear it raging all around me, and laugh at it. And that is just because over a hundred years ago greatgreat-grandfather Murray built this house and built it well. I wonder if, a hundred years from now, anybody will win a victory over anything because of something I left or did. It is an inspiring thought.


HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR GIFT Not everyone is into essential oils per se. Someone said they do like them but don’t know what to do with them. If you get some for a gift and think they might as well stay in their box till when ever, here is a great idea to do something. You may want to utilize them in bath oils to send a gift to friends for their birthdays. Everyone agrees on soothing baths. They calm our moods and relieve aching muscles. So they’re just the thing after a rough day or a tough week. But that hot water and long soak can end up over-drying our skin. That’s where bath oils come in. Pour some in the tub for a silky treat! Bath oils give much pleasure, throughout the ages up to now. Fragrant baths were originally a way for women to scent themselves with perfumes. It helped them to keep their skins hydrated and smelling delicious. Having a special bath routine is a good way to enjoy life.

Taking a bath can be a simple evening ritual that takes no extra time and leaves you feeling like you were at the spa. These oils can also be used in an evening foot soak, which is especially lovely during colder winter months for hydrating dry feet. You can find a recipe on the next page how to make bath oil with almond oil.

Lorem Ipsum dolor sit Hola Skirt! I’ve found this fabric online and snapped it up – isn’t it spectacular? My flower oriented instincts drew me to the lurid fuchsia, pink and bottle-green print. I knew it would look divine if I make a skirt out of it. Paired with these earrings, it might just be a perfect outfit


The Art of Photography The idea with the photo shoot was to explore fashion and flowers and then photograph them in such a way to create new art. The flowers are all fresh and it’s designed on the day of the photo shoot. We had a rather small space to take the photo but that was enough to cram in the photographer, make-up artist, models and stylist. At the end, Profolio photography added a dark layer over the photo to heighten the drama. The effect is truly stunning. It blended the bright yellow sunflowers, bright green succulent with the white and greyish botanical to provide a pleasant unity. The make-up artist used very dramatic colours on the eye to balance with the heavy headdress. The yellow and green eyemake up and less bright lipstick enhance the model and flowers beautifully.
