For 2012, I am introducing a new series of posts…Supermodel Sundays. No, I didn’t mean Superbowl Sunday (no football is allowed in my little boudoir). It will be kind of like Mademoiselle Monday, except instead of focusing on actresses and singers, it will focus on supermodels. I went through my high school years in the …
Did you ever see my post from 2010 titled, Upcycling: Chanel Perfume Bottle to Oil Candle? If not, I highly suggest you check it out.
