Still Standing (and dancing)

Ever have one of those days when a song just keeps running through your head? That almost annoying tune that if you don’t burst out singing in the office or while preparing dinner you feel like you’ll just… burst? Well, if the song is by Elton John, it’s anything but annoying! And if you (or me… this is all completely hypothetical, of course ;-) ) happen to start singing … and dancing … to it, who knows? Maybe you’ll start the next flash mob sensation! Just take a look at what the lovely city of Galveston did. To take a line from their uplifting video, “Life isn’t about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain.”

Vacation Photos

Did you spend your Christmas in Aruba? Jamaica? Bermuda? Bahamas? (Lucky you! Next year take me with you!) Are you coming back from your holiday break with a glowing tan, refreshed and ready to face the new year? Show off those amazing beach holiday photos with this bright, fun summer beach photo album!

The Dreamer Fairy Necklace

Have you ever wondered what fairies dream about? What do they think as they gaze at the world of humans around them? Do they wonder if Mother Earth will survive? Do they hope that mankind will stop abusing her? Watching all of history repeat itself and dreaming of better days. Maybe this fairy, sitting on a hill and watching the sun go down is hoping that the dawn will bring a sign of a better world.

Winter Wonderland Holiday Necklace

I couldn’t resist just one more Christmas song.  This cute “Happy Christmas” necklace can be worn all winter – and even in those hot summer months for those of you who want to think cool thoughts.

Over the ground lies a mantle of white,
A heaven of diamonds shine down through the night…

Don’t you just love this curious little black kitty as he sits under the lamplight? It’s like he’s saying, “It’s chilly out here, please take me home with you.”

 

 

Creativity Begins Here

If you have a little budding artist in your family, you know how their crayons, pencils and sketch paper end up all over the house – or wherever they last felt that creative urge. Don’t despair, Ferald is here with this great tote! A perfect place to store sketch pads, pencils, and all the other necessities of life! Your young artist will be “taking care of business” in style, and can take their creativity with them everywhere they go!

Leather Laptop Sleeve

Once again, yesterday’s post got me in the mood for the one today too. Reminiscing about the country music of my youth, listening to the lone train whistle blow down the tracks, and this “leather-look” laptop sleeve takes me back to Kenny Rogers and The Gambler.

If cowboys carried laptops on their horses, I can guarantee they would have a laptop sleeve like this protecting it from the dust of the trail.

Western Tooled iPhone4 Case

When I look at this great “tooled leather look” iPhone case, I’m whisked back to the days of my childhood when we went to the Fort Worth Rodeo and Stock Show every year, everyone wore tooled leather belts just like this, and being “country” wasn’t cool. “Now I still act and look the same, what you see ain’t nothing new.”

Whether you were country before, or you’re country now, celebrate it with this cute little iPhone case. Because, baby, country is cool!

Let there be Peace on Earth

After yesterday’s post about Peace on Earth, I just had to share one other design that popped up while searching “Peace on Earth”. It’s special to me because it’s by one of my favorite artists – I even have one of her prints hanging on my wall. You should check out all the other wonderful artwork by DudaDaze!

“Let there be peace on earth… and let it begin with me.” The sentiment brings to mind John Lennon’s Happy Xmas (War Is Over). Peace on Earth begins when all the wars end. Peace on Earth begins with me. There’s a Christmas Peace I can “imagine”! :-)

 

Christmas Wish

I’m going to let you in on a Christmas secret. (No, it’s not what I’m giving Dean for Christmas ;-) ) It’s my all-time favorite Christmas song since I was a child. I can remember watching this when it first aired and being blown away, not only by the unique combination but also by the message. It stayed with me for days afterward, and now that I’m older I understand why.

Every child must be made aware
Every child must be made to care
Care enough for his fellow man
To give all the love that he can…
I pray my wish will come true
For my child and your child too.

Now that I’ve got you in the Christmas spirit, I want to share two designs that remind me of my favorite song. It’s only fitting since it’s two songs in one with two uniquely wonderful singers.

May you have Peace this Christmas and all through the New Year.

Santa Baby

What says “sexy” better than Eartha Kitt’s velvety smooth voice? Maybe this cute comic strip style “Mrs. Claus” pin-up ornament? Well, we’ve got both for you for our Sexy Saturday post. I can imagine Santa hurrying down the chimney to give her all the things on Eartha’s list, can’t you?
