Sparkling Elegance from LuShae Jewelry

Recently I received a free sample from LuShae Jewelry (http://www.jewelryartdesigns.com/) in a splendid dark blue gift box, which brought my attention to this Australian-based company (but they ship from California).  I love this simply elegant iridescent pearl, and I highly recommend their jewelry.  They have everything from promise rings to beautiful cross pendants to earrings, and don't miss this adorable antique fleur de lis necklace.
If you're searching for Confirmation or graduation gifts this spring, give this site a browse!  Their customer service is quite wonderful, and bloggers might want to note that they run a yearly contest to give bloggers the chance to win $5000.

Also excised were maternity clothes from the last baby that were just too worn or out of style. I con

A problem peculiar to serious Catholics ... what do you DO with old scapulars? When the strings tear apart and the images of our Lady start hanging -- you can't just throw them out, you have to burn them or bury them. I suspect most moms of large families have a little pile in the corner of their top bureau drawer of these little patches of cloth embroidered with Christ and Our Lady. Well, here's what I started doing with them: sewing them on the backs of my boys' overalls. This allows me to combine my hatred of name brand dressing ("What?

Also, I don't mind having the Blessed Mother and our Lord watching my boys' backs in an extra special way. :) For non-Catholics: a scapular is two scraps of wool cloth with an image of the Blessed Mother on it worn front and back ove
