Eura Cool (to Me) #1

As I read through the various ways to promote my store via the vast plethora of massively intimidating social networking options I decided to just talk about what's cool.  You know...Cool.  Are you cool?  Is being cool really that important, or is it just a tag associated with what we WISH we could be all the time?

Let's start with me.  Do I think I'm cool?  Well, many of us gain our self-perception from the feedback of others.  Do people like us? I think FB has taken this to another level.  Making all of one's mundane moments in life worthy of broadcasting to the world (minute or ridiculously broad depending on the amount of "friends" tallied.).  Still, am I cool?  Nah.  I hope not.  I mean if I thought I was cool, then that would inevitable mean that...I. am. not.

So let's focus on things that are indeed...Cool (to me).

...Handmade mineral eye shadow (Noella Beauty Works) - If you know me (you probably don't), you know that I am afraid of makeup because I don't know how to work it, BUT this looks like ice cream.  Far less intimidating...and very cool.

...Handmade Children's Toy Clown (HopIT) - if clowns looked like this then I wouldn't be so freaked out by them. (Like Chuckie Cheese freaked out.  I know Chuckie wasn't a clown, but why was his mouth so big that a 5yr old feels like she's going to be eaten???)  This clown is very calm and non-threatening...and vegetarian.  Cool.

...Handmade cardigan (Oveja Negra Knits) - hand-knitted items are special because there's normally only ONE of the item you have which is...Cool.  This cardigan is nice because of the zigzags and it looks warm and ready for a night at the movies or on long flight.  So you don't get too...Cool.

All BUTTONED Up With SO Many Places To Go...

The temperature is dropping.  Leaves are falling.  Time to BUTTON Up!  Maybe not the way you think.  Buttons have to be far more than just useful for holding in the warmth or keeping the unmentionables...unmentioned.  They can be fun earring!  We totally wear them all the time, and we are so not a tween. :)

Would you please do US (Eura Lee) a big favor and comment on www.eurahearts.com on which pair you is your FAV.  Or maybe just give a top 3?  Two pair are already listed in our Etsy Store (www.euralee.etsy.com).

Feel free to forward this email to ALL you know.  Post it on your FACEBOOK or TWITTER because it all helps US sell and then donate the proceeds.  Your CLICK is important!

Blue DOES make GREEN...

IT'S A BOY! (or...OR a girl with issues about pink). The toy Under the Nile (organic Egyptian cotton) with a few 7th Generation chlorine free diapers (No dear, diapers aren't naturally white...that's chemicals). A pair of my handmade earrings (quartz, Swarovski, gold/sterling) because Mommy love is the GREATEST love of all. (I feel a Whitney moment bursting...nope, that was something else).

Other options are veggies (eggplant, broccoli, etc), fruit (bananas,grapes...) minimo dolls (different ethnicities), and baby buddies (great prints). Safe toys for the baby. A conscious gift. Wow, you are so 21st century. Maybe even 22nd.
