Wow! I learned that you can download hi-res images from Hubble Telescope and CanvasPress can print them for you! How cool is that?! And what a way to commemorate a special date! Just look up the date of your baby's birth, or of your wedding (as long as it occurred while Hubble was functioning, of course), and you can order a print of the Earth or virtually anything else on that date! Super cool!

OilWorks is a custom art reproduction process offered exclusively through Canvas Press. We incorporate a digital process combined with a personal touch to paint your photograph on our computers before printing with archival inks to a high-quality canvas. The texture of the cotton weave canvas and the softness of the brush strokes make your photograph look like a hand-crafted masterpiece. Excluding tangible paint, there is virtually no difference between what goes into a real painting versus an OilWorks painting.

I learned how to take a picture of a flower. "Focus right on the center of the flower and be as close as you can. This will cause the outstretched petals to be out of focus the further they get and make beautiful lines and colors in the finished photo." I love flower picture, and this tip will be great to help me take better pictures.

Little man is almost four months old, and he loves anything that is brightly colored (loves, loves, loves). I couldn’t figure out why he lost interest in his cute mobile, until we started to offer him very vibrant toys. Then we realized his cute mobile with muted and pastel colored critters just bores him now. […]

I’m finally going to take the plunge, and get a pair of eyeglasses. I’ve been wearing contact lenses since I was 11 (vanity? I refused to wear glasses) but as a new mom, it’s just not practical. I find myself falling asleep for naps with my contact lenses on, and waking up with a lost […]
-
Mine turned out really nice from them. Just make sure you get them to put the anti-glare on the lenses!
-
I stopped using contacts in college – love my glasses and this year finally splurged for my 1st pair of prescription sunglasses, woo-hoo!! Can't wait to see yours.
-
I stopped wearing my contacts everyday once I had kids. It is so easy to just put my glasses on and go. Can't wait to see which ones your pick out!
-
I wear glasses just to read. I never had contacts, but my older sis still does and boy I wish I had all the money she's spent replacing the lost ones. She's finally wised up and now gets insurance in case she loses a lense.
Glasses aren't hard to deal with. Always nice to get the actual glass lenses cleaning cloth and glass lenses spray. -
I can't wait to see how this goes. Glasses seem so reasonable onlin. Thanks for stopping by.



Yeah, I might need to read this one, my boys are 16 month old and I still have the new mommy blues!!
It can last a long time…we need to give ourselves some attention too.
