Label This: How Label Printers Can Help Get You Organized
June 25, 2006

My grandma has every shelf of her linen closet labeled with the location of sheets, wash cloths, hand towels, bath towels and beach towels. While I think that’s a tad obsessive, I must admit to a certain sense of the pot calling the kettle black.

Ready, Set, Simplify: Tips to Simplify Your Life
June 24, 2006

Do you feel frazzled? Do you have too much to do and not enough time? Life is complicated! Do you long for a time when things were simpler and the pace of life was slower? How can you simplify your life in today’s fast-paced, complex world? Here are a few tips that will help you simplify your life and regain peace of mind.

Cut Out Tasks and Activities

This may surprise you, but you cannot do it all! That’s a fallacy that some of us have grown up with. We’ve been told that we can do it all and have it all. I have so many interests that I couldn’t possibly pursue them all at once. The reality is that we have limited time and energy.

Slow-Down in Real Estate Market Isn’t Slowing Furniture Sales
June 15, 2006

The real estate market may be slowing down, but there doesn’t seem to be a corresponding slow-down in the number of sales of furnishings that will go into people’s homes. In fact, the opposite seems to be happening across the country.

For instance, California-based Dacor, a kitchen appliance company, reports that their sales for the first quarter of 2006 were up some 25 percent from the same period of 2005. Another kitchen appliance supplier, Pittsburg-based Sub-Zero, saw their sales jump nearly 30 percent during that same period.

Barbecue Party Tips for a Truly Amazing Event
June 14, 2006

Barbecue party tips can help a host put together an extraordinary event for family and friends. Eating outdoors is a favorite pastime enjoyed by everyone and planning the event can help make it more memorable and stress-free for the host. Big or small, a barbecue party requires an adequate amount of planning and preparation to ensure that everything is laid out properly.

It is advisable to plan the event around a theme in order to create a focal point for the barbecue party. This way, all aspects of the party such as the food, games and decorations can be fashioned around a central theme. Favorite themes for barbecue parties include a Hawaiian motif, nostalgic seventies get-together, or, if you are near the sea, opt for a beach bbq party!

Scrapbooking Graduation Memories

It’s hard to believe that my daughter has just graduated from
high school. She has some great memories of this event for us to
preserve in a graduation scrapbook.

We decided to purchase a ready-made scrapbook instead of
assembling one. At a local bookstore we found a large spiral
bound scrapbook/journal on clearance for $2.99!

My daughter was not able to get her senior yearbook before
graduation, so she had her friends write notes to her in her
scrapbook. She took the book with her to her senior class party,
then we set the book out at her family graduation party for
friends and family to sign.
