Update as of Sunday, January 20th, Plus 12 Uses for Vapor Rub!!!

Sorry!! I've been so busy battling a head cold & trying to finish the "studio" that I haven't actually posted anything here. I have however written 2 craft articles of projects currently in progress and will post those in the very near future (when I finally have the studio done!).

While you wait for those to be posted, I hope you will enjoy this wonderful little article I came across from DivineCaroline.com!

"Twelve Surprising Uses for Vicks Vapor Rub". A few of my favourites are:

• On Your Tootsies
  Applying Vicks to your feet provides nighttime cough relief. Generously rub VapoRub all over your feet and cover them with socks. Within moments your cough will subside—in the morning you’ll wake up a new, hacking free woman. 
   
• Achy Breaky Muscles
  Vicks relieves sore, overworked muscles. It increases circulation and provides almost instant aid. Use a generous portion and apply it all over the aching area. (Be sure to warn your bedmate as the stench can ensure a nookie-free night.)
  
• Go Away MosquitoesVicks wards off mosquitoes. Apply small dabs of Vicks VapoRub to your skin and clothes and mosquitoes will steer clear. If you do get bitten, apply Vicks to the area and cover it with a Band-Aid to relieve itching.

Trying to Organize Your Craft Area While Sick...

I've been working diligently over the past week or so on getting all of my crafting/art/beading/yarn/miscellaneous craft stuff organized so I can pull it all together in a craft "studio/room/space". Well, my body decided on Friday past that this would be an excellent time to procure & manifest a sinus head cold. Loverly.
I have the usual symptoms of achey bones & pulsating head with throbbing ears, but I still managed to get a bit done. I will try to upload some pics of my progress later. Right now I need a cup of strong coffee, a warm cozy blanket & cuddle time with George.
