Everyone needs more storage space, right? Well a good closet organizer can double the storage space in your closet and make it easier for you to find just what you need.There's 2 basic types of closet organizers. One is actually more like closet furniture and has built in drawers cubbies and of course poles to hang your clothes. These can run you quite a bit of money but do a great job to organize and beautify your closet and will be durable enough to last a long time. A less costly alternative is found in wire closet organizers that offer almost the same amount of organization but aren't as pretty and may not wear as well. Both kinds will work with a walk in closet or a simple reach in closet.When buying an organizer system for you closet, you want to keep in mind what kind of clothing you have and how much of it.
Do you have tons of shoes, but not a lot of shirts? Then you'll want more storage units for shoes. If you have a lot of hats, scarves and purses, make sure you design in storage space for those. Your organizer system should be customized to the types of clothing and accessories you own as much as possible.There are many different storage units you can incorporate into your closet design to make things easier to find and also give you more storage space. Some of the organizer units you might want to think about include:Shoe Cubes - each cube fits a pair of shoes and they stack on top of each other so all your shoes are available at a glanceShelves - for folded jeans, sweaters, purses and hatsTiered Tie Racks - for ties, scarves or beltsDrawers - for those personal items you don't want to leave out in the openSlide Out Bins - great for laundry, just slide them out and bring them down to the washer.A well though out closet organizer design can double or even triple your storage space. Don't forget to add stacked rods for your shorter items to hang on top of each other which gives you twice as much space in the same linear area..

Northwest natives revered the salmon and showed their respect for this resource in legend and song and by using every part of the salmon in their daily life.
The abundance of the varied salmon species created a lifestyle of art and leisure virtually unknown to any other tribal group in the world.
Absolutely no part of the salmon was left unused.
Unknown to nearly everyone but the tribes that still inhabit the Northwest coasts of Alaska, Canada and Washington State, salmon leather is a durable...

Chainmaille Artists Maille Mystique Use Cyberspace to Build Friendship, Business
MINNEAPOLIS, MN (ContentDesk) June 22, 2006 - Debra Dale and Carol Branting stumbled into each other two years ago in an online message board for jewelry making enthusiasts and became fast friends. Now the two are business partners but theyve never actually met in person. Despite the distance, the two have created a successful line of high-quality handcrafted chainmaille jewelry and purses using the internet.Dale relocated to Union, Kentucky after her husband was forced to transfer from his job at a plant in Illinois, where she had lived her whole life. "It's been a lonely experience at this stage of my life. Creating chainmaille is calming and therapeutic," says Dale.
Once Dale started experimenting with the technique, she found she had a talent for it.
Branting, of Marshall, Minnesota, is the Maille Mystique web guru and specializes in chainmaille necklaces. Does she ever wish that she could sit down with her partner over a cup of coffee to discuss strategy or share...

Watch Out For Women With Purses!
Many of us have seen the emails that warn women not to park near a van; that your elbow is the strongest part of your body; be aware of your surroundings, etc.
These are all valid points.
However, when faced with real danger will you remember that email you skimmed last year?
Not likely. You need to practice self defense techniques.
Why do you think schools have fire drills? Hopefully by walking the children through an actual emergency, they will remember what to do.Your best defense is to avoid situations of vulnerability.
I am always amazed at the number of females walking or jogging alone, both early morning or late at night, when it is dark outside.
Or the mother with her baby in her arms, toddler in tow, carrying shopping bags.
Her position is screaming, "I am helpless against defending myself at this moment."
Ladies, use a shopping cart or stroller to keep your hands free.Your Purse Doubles As a WeaponYou have...
Sequin Purses
Purses, popularly known as handbags, evolved several centuries ago. What first began as simple pouches made of hide, soon developed into status symbols, adorned with lavish embroidery and precious stones. The earliest purses were simple animal skin pouches that were used during religious ceremonies by the Egyptians and Babylonians. In course of time, they evolved into the expensive designer bags made by fashion houses, that we see today. Although the functionality factor is important, of recent, more emphasis is laid on the style statement.
A purse has essentially been used as an object to carry money, keys, makeup kits and important documents. There are several different types of purses available in the market. Each type has its own unique design and style. Sequin purses are one of the popular styles of purses available. Sequins are shiny, disk shaped beads used for decorative purposes.
These come in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. Previously, sequins...
