Art Break! - Worry Doll


A worry doll is a little doll that you tell your worries to before you go to sleep and it takes them away.

I stated with some beige cloth that was the handle of a bag.


Then I made a little dress from part of an old cushion cover and some lace.


I gave her a belt of pink embroidery floss.


I painted her face on with acrylic paint.


I gave her a veil of purple ribbon and lace and we are done!

Colgate - Nature's Extracts - Ultimate Fresh - Toothpaste

This green coloured toothpaste is a fantastic alternative to mint flavoured toothpaste.
The lemon and aloe vera flavour in very refreshing and will leave your mouth feeling clean.
It foams up well (in a toothpaste-sense) and doesn't trigger my allergic reaction to toothpaste, so it may be a good option for ypu if you also can't use most toothpastes.

Scent: 5/5
Price: 2/5 ($5.82 for 75mL)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Book Review - The Joy Luck Club - Amy Tan



This book explores the lives of four women and their families, their lives in America and prior lives in China.
They are all connected by the Joy Luck Club, in which they come together weekly to play Mahjong.

The book if depressing (not that that is an inherently bad think for a book to be, some stories are depressing).
This is not the book to read if you don't like hearing about children having a bad time.

The Mall on Sunday has a quote on the front of my copy saying 'Pure enchantment', I think we are reading different books. I don't think it is enchanting, it is sad.
