Construction Site // My New Room!!!

I never mentioned this before.
Because I didn't really think anyone cared.
But since my brother moved out.
We are now moving me from upstairs in the front of the house,
To downstairs in the basement.
The room will be a few square feet bigger.
And me and my father are building a HUGE closet for me!!!

The closet I have now is WAY too small.
And half of it was taken when they rebuilt the kitchen a few years ago and put the fridge on the other side of the "wall" of my closet.
So now I'm going to get a whole new closet.
With shelves to put my shoes and everything.

I'm also going to build a plateform bed.
Which will have 6 large drawers under it.
Three on one side && three on the other.
Which will hold my T-Shirts && Jeans // Leggings.
As well as my makeup on one side.
Since I'm not getting my vanity until we move my mother's things upstairs from her "room".
Into my room to turn into her sewing room // office space.

Then the place where her sewing things are now will be turned into a "dressing room" // "makeup area " // Bar && extra storage for my father.
I'm getting half he's getting half.
That's the deal we made up.

I won't be having my new room until December or January though.
:(
Which kind of sucks.
BUT everything will be brand new.

I'm also trying to figure out a way to create a display cabnit for my Care Bears && Care Bear Cousins.
So that they don't get ruined.
I'm thinking about making a long glass front cabnit for them.
So that there protected from the kitten down there.

I'm pretty sure we're making a built in book case too.
So that I can house all of my Nylon Magazines && Teen Vouges.
Would you believe I've been collecting them since 2004?!?!?!?
There's an ENTIRE bin worth of magazines in there.
I need to get magazine holders for the shelves.
I might just store them in boxes so that they don't get warped.

Another thing I need to get is a bunch of frames.
To put my posters && Art work I have in.
I don't want them to be just tacked up on the walls anymore.
I want them to be displayed properly.
I've got too many nice things to let them get muffed up anymore!!

If anyone has any ideas for my new room let me know!!!
Or if you know where to get the things I need for a good price.
Since I need to get a bunch of things for storage.

I'm also debating the color of the room.
Should I wall paper it on the two walls??
And paint the other ones??
Or paint them all??

What color scheme should I go with??
I'm still trying to deside on that one!!!

I'll update this later when I figure that out I think!!

Peace Love && Lipstick

Too old for Care Bears?!?!?!?!?

Random post.
But I felt I needed to say it.
Mostly to make myself feel better about what I had to do tonight.

Are you ready for it?!?!

I had put my set of 15 collecters edition Care Bears up for auction on Ebay last Sunday.
Why you might ask??
Because I thought I had grown too old for them.

MAN WAS I WRONG!!!
I started freaking out when I saw that 5 people were watching them.
I don't know if any of you are familiar with Snype on Ebay??
But I was scared someone had them on that.
And would snatch them up the last minute.

So at the last 17 hours I desided to pull the plug.
End it.
I literally started crying before we figured out how to end the auction.
I couldn't do it.

I collected them for over 6 years.
All through middle school and high school.
Everytime they released a new Care Bear I was on it.
I HAD TO HAVE IT!!!

This of course was before my MAC obsession came along.
Well more like DURING.
But I wasn't AS obsessed back then.

Now here we are 6 years later.
I am the PROUD.
AND I MEAN VERY PROUD.
Owner of over 30 Care Bears,
Care Bear Limited Editions,
And Care Bear Cousins.
Which in this set I do indeed have Baby Hugs && Baby Tugs Bears.
[[ There SUPER hard to find and were only released in limited production. ]]
As well as the 25th Anniversary Care Bear.

The one and ONLY Care Bear I DO NOT OWN is Gramms Bear.
And that's for the soul reason that they never rereleased her.
I'm still on the hunt for one from the 80's.
But I doubt I'll ever get her.

I mean I'm 20 years old.
Am I in any of your oppinions TOO OLD FOR CARE BEARS???
Is there such a thing??

Maybe tomorrow I'll post a picture of all Care Bears && Care Bear Cousins if I get a chance to after the yard sale.

Peace Love && Lipstick

Ideas??

I'm having a yard sale on Saturday && Sunday at my parent's house.
And I am going to be selling a lot of cloths that I don't need or wear anymore.

But I was wondering::
If my things don't sell at the Yard Sale should I have a blog sale?!??!?!

What do you girls think??
YAY OR NAY?!!?

I mean I've got a bunch of unworn name brand clothing.
Which I don't wear anymore or have NEVER worn.
Or tried them on and desided agianst wearing it.
And I want them to go to good homes.

So it's up to you girls to help me out.
Blog sale or no blog sale??

Peace Love && Lipstick

MakeupAlley.com Swap +++ BACK2MAC HAULAGE!!

This is my THIRD swap with a LOVELY lady Daniela in Greece.
Our first swap went VERY well.
So once I found more clothing to swap with her I got in contact with her agian.
To swap once more.
Which in turn turned into TWO more times.



This is what I recieved yesterday::
A pair of People For Peace Cropped Jeans.
A London Denim Mini Skirt Overalls.
And an OPI polish to add to my collection in Cabberatte Without You.

But before I came home Mikey brought me to the MAC PRO store.
So that I could B2M.
I got three things.


Front Lit from the Makeup Artists Collection.
BLACK KNIGHT WHICH DIDN'T COME OUT TILL TODAY!!!!
And the LAST Haunting from the Makeup Artist Collection.

I was very happy that they let me get the Black Knight Lipstick before it came out.
I am now the proud owner of the exclusive BLACK LIPSTICK OF THE SEASON!!
Sorry I'm a little TOOO excited.

Current Inspiration = Wes Wilson.





I've been getting back into my old "Hippie// Free Spirited" ways lately.
And an artist who has ALWAYS inspired me be it makeup OR clothing was Wes Wilson.
Who did most a majority of the better known Fillmore West's trippy poster art work back in the 1960's && 1970's.
Above are a few of my current favorites.

It's actually quite funny.
My fathers friend found a bunch of old play bills in a time magazine that he had bought when he lied in San Fransico back in the 1980's.
Like at least 50 of them.
I was like OH MY HEAVENS!!!
I fell in love with them.
There awesome.

I only have replicas of them.
I hope to one day own REAL ones.
