Transform Grandma’s China Into Memories – Bregjes Design

 

Grandma’s China is one of the sweetest things I can think of. The special plates and settings that made each family holiday just a bit more fancy.

China can invoke all types of feelings and emotions. The thoughts of the people who you sit with. The memories of times together.

 

 

 

Chinaware is beautiful. Coming in so many forms and styles, each showcasing the person who owned them. From white, pure glass giving you a classic look. To reds and purples, giving deep colors and a bold look. Pastels showcasing a light and delicate look.

Many people have been blessed with receiving either new or old China dishes. Whether you received them as a gift or after a loved one passes on, you feel connected to these dishes. They are more than just another place-setting, they have emotions tied to them.

 

 

 

 

Oftentimes the old china dishes just sit on a shelf and sadly collect dust, or more often, in a box in your basement or garage. But why are we not transforming these classic items into something you can enjoy and show off? This was the thought that Bregje of Bregjes Design had. She loves the history behind each piece. All of people who ate off those plates. The drinks laughed over in those cups. They hold just a little something more inside each one.

 

By taking the courage so many of us do not contain, she holds her head up, smiles and smashes that beautiful classic piece of China. With each shatter she creatively scours over the pieces and as many artists can, she sees what we layman cannot. She takes those broken pieces, buffs them to perfection and makes them into the most delicate and dainty jewelry you can imagine. Sometimes adding accents of gold or silver to her pieces, she makes each one different.

 

 

By making her pieces from different pieces of China, and by breaking them into different shapes, there are no two pieces that will ever be the same.

 

When you purchase a piece of jewelry from Bregjes Design you never have to worry about finding someone wearing the same piece as you. You can joyfully showcase your one-of-a-kind piece with pleasure.

With each piece coming in at affordable, everyday prices, you will be be able to afford to grab a piece today.

Shopping Made Easy

Any mom can testify that shopping with a baby is a difficult and challenging task. If you are thinking of buying a new car as your old one just won’t cut it and live in the UK, you could look into a company like one sure insurance who can assist you in making better choices when it comes to choosing a car and to hopefully save you money. When baby is little and you’re grocery shopping, where do you put them? Do you carry them? Wear them on your back? Keep them in the car seat and put them in the cart? That’s what I used to. Baby number one was in the car seat and inside the cart, where all the groceries go. I can tell you one things for sure – I got really good at placing and stacking groceries so I could fit them all in the cart (without any of them falling on baby!). I love shopping but it can be a pretty stressful task with the baby. I get shopping coupons on websites like PromoCodeWatch.com so I can save a bit of money and they’re great! I prefer shopping online to avoid the stress, but now I’ve found the perfect solution which means I can visit the stores with the baby.

When you’re so used to shopping at the same place, there are customer expectations that you have in mind before entering a store. For example, you expect good customer service from the staff, deals to be offered, plus easy payment systems so you are not juggling money as you are handling shopping and a wriggly baby. That is why I’m glad that some stores are looking to adapt with EFTPOS machine equipment for contactless payments, as well as other technology. These high expectations are not just for the staff through, even the products too! You just want everything to be perfect.

Well mamas, we’ve found the perfect solution to your grocery shopping mayhem – the Binxy Baby shopping cart hammock. This hammock is the real deal. It will make your shopping experience a total game changer; no more playing tetris with your groceries! The baby hammock clips to either side of the shopping cart and hangs elevated leaving the cart basket open for groceries. If it’s cold outside just place the infant carrier right into the hammock and strap it in; that way baby stays warm! The hammock even works for multiples; just put two hammocks side by side.

The leading cause of head injuries for young children is falling from shopping carts. Roughly 24,000 children per year are hospitalized due to these injuries. Placing an infant carrier on the top of a shopping cart is a huge safety hazard. Doing this causes the cart to be top heavy and fall over – while baby is in it! Lisa Pinnell, the founder of Binxy Baby set out to find a solution to these very startling findings. She didn’t want her children to be harmed (obviously) and she wanted her shopping experience with two kids to be more productive and less like a game.


Check out all the features the Binxy Baby hammock offers:

  • Multiple color options that are perfect for any gender
  • Use the hammock from birth until baby can sit up independently
  • Holds up to 50 pounds
  • Velcro strap to properly secure hammock
  • Infant carrier safety strap
  • Secure seat harness
  • Compliant with US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act
  • Rolls up for easy on – the – go shopping trips

For more safety information view the Binxy Baby website.

Follow these easy steps for a safe, quick instillation:

Place the plastic ends on the cart

Strap the velcro straps around the sides of the cart (this ensures a safe, tight instillation)

Place baby (or car seat) into the the hammock; buckle and tighten

The Binxy Baby hammock is seriously the perfect shopping accessory. I love how easy it is to install; just strap it onto the cart. With one hand you can snap it on and strap it around the sides however, I do recommend using two hands just to ensure extra safety and security. The hammock fits on almost any shopping cart too! Our Target has those big plastic shopping carts that are difficult to use some baby products with; but the Binxy Baby hammock fits perfectly. You can use it on any part of the cart too!

The hammock is so great for kiddos to relax in. While baby Penny was in the hammock she was getting fussy, but once we started moving she got quiet right away. It’s almost like an actual hammock for adults!

A really cool feature that the hammock offers is a loop for toys on the security straps. I almost didn’t realize it was there! It’s perfect for securing a teether (or any other toy) to the hammock for baby to keep busy while you shop.


Although the Binxy Baby hammock gives you more room in the cart basket, it is still a little bit of a challenge to get groceries in and out of the cart.

The hammock can be used with babies up to 50 pounds, but it is not safe to put a baby in the hammock who can sit up unassisted.

Seriously mamas, the Binxy Baby hammock is so perfect for mamas of one or multiples. It’s such a lifesaver and really does make shopping with a kiddo(s) much easier. Give it as a baby shower gift or pick one up for yourself!

The Clean Beauty Revolution – Au Naturale Cosmetics

Have you heard about the Clean Beauty Revolution? Au Naturale is changing the way makeup is made, and it’s all for the better.

Ashley Prange, nuclear analyst, wanted to go au natural, but didn’t want to go without makeup. She kept having reactions and breakouts from makeup, but didn’t want to stop using it. So, she set out to create her own makeup.

“Her mission was to use exclusively healthy, natural & ethically sourced ingredients in order to develop a replacement for each and every product in her former beauty routine” – Au Naturale Website

Their Mission: The #CleanBeautyRevolution.

The Clean Beauty Revolution is what makes Au Naturale unlike many other natural cosmetics brands, that being said there are some really great natural cosmetics available such as Waterlilies And Company. From day one, each ingredient has been scrutinized before being included into a formulation, only those who are ethically sound, factually healthy & naturally sourced making the final cut. And from day one, the company has been determined to provide consumers with much more than a line of healthy products.

What I love about Au Naturale is their huge variety of products and color options they provide. As of 2017 they offer:

Foundations/Concealers

Blushes/Highlighters/Bronzers

Eye Shadows/Eye Pencils

Lip Stains/Lip Glosses/Lipsticks Lip Pencils

Brushes

vegan, cruelty-free, paraben free, gluten free, sustainably made & ethically sourced.

hand made in their own lab in Green Bay, WI.

FREE domestic shipping on orders over $50

I tried 2 Au Naturale products, their Stain Matte Lip Stain and their Pure Powder Highlighter.

I loved how sleek the packaging and containers are for the makeup. I have seen and used several other ‘free’ makeups but nothing with such high quality materials and such beautiful design. I love knowing that these products are toxic free. Nothing unsavory is on my skin or absorbing into my body. I try to take care of my body, inside and out, so knowing that I am not harming myself is a huge sigh of relief. Keeping the skin youthful-looking and rejuvenated is the mission of women all over the world and, thankfully, there are many things on the market that can help them do this such as these beverly hills md products available online to try out for yourself to improve your overall skin health.

Au Naturale Lip Stain comes in 10 shades, giving all skin tones something to lean towards. I love pinks but also love purples. I have caucasian skin, but tan easily and get several shades darker for the summer and fall months. My lips seem to really fade to the background when I put on any shades that are too close to my natural skin and lip color. This is frustrating to me and causes me to have a hard time finding lipsticks that I can wear that boost my natural look. Even with a lip lift surgery to tighten the skin of the lips, Au Naturale Lip Stain adds that extra pop over color to heighten my look.  Using Au Naturale Lip Stain has been such a joy for me. I love how it stays on, gives my lips a natural looking color boost without being too overpowered. The Lip Stain does not fade into my lips making it look like I am not wearing anything but rather showcasing them in a fun and safe way.

The color I am using is “Purple Reign”

I have never used a highlighter before 2017. I tried one out a few months ago when I was trying out new makeup with my cousin and fell in love with the concept. A highlighter is typically used after your makeup is on and complete; it is the final step. It sets your work, adds a radiant illumination and a soft focus finish to your face and décolletage. Au Naturale has 3 Pure Powder Highlighter shades: begonia (pinky), Moondust (silverish) and Halcyon (goldish). I am using the Begonia.

This product sprays out in powdered form. You can spray directly on your face where you want to work it in, or you can spray onto your hand and collect with your application brush. Either way works. It is a very fine and delicate power, making it easy to apply and not ‘over do’ your face. Often times products like a highlighter can go on too heavy and make you look like you dumped the product on your face. Au Naturale’s Highlighter is so

Next time you want to try out some new beauty products head over to Au Naturale and dive into the Clean Beauty Revolution!
