Umbro Soccer Shin Socks {A lifesaver}

Will has been playing soccer for many years and I always dreaded getting him ready.  Trying to get his socks and shin guards on was never an easy task and I often ended up in a full sweat trying to get them on.  I just recently discovered the Umbro Soccer Shin Socks and these have made getting ready for soccer a breeze.  The best part is they are only $10 but exclusively available at Dick's Sporting goods in stores or online.  Will has played two games with them and they seem to work like a charm and he isn't fussing with them on the field like he did with his other shin guards.  I always like to pass on things that make life a little easier. 

Back 2 School!

Happy Back 2 School for everyone!  Will started a new school this year and so far is loving it.  Will tells me it only feels like he is there one hour.  I always feel like a new school year is an opportunity for new beginnings, new friends and routines.  I happen to love having routines even though by the end of the year the routines become mundane. The one thing I don't like about Back 2 school is making lunches. I am not sure why such a simple task is so annoying.  I hope everyone is having a fantastic start to the new year. 

Happy Labor Day from Kristen's Custom Creations

Finding Normalcy

Summer is winding down and it is time to start thinking about going back to school.  We have had such a busy summer with moving, we lost our Greyhound Kane and through it all are trying to find some normalcy.  I am pretty sure I don't want to move again any time soon, it is exhausting. Dudley and Cooper have found theirs normalcy. 

Because this is what summer is all about

Isn't this what summer is all about?  Swimming and just hanging out..... well that is if you are a kid.  We are in the middle of moving so I have spent most of my summer packing and unpacking.  Hope everyone is having a great summer!

It is smoldering out in Michigan...

I know I complain when it is cold and complain when is hot.... I just want it to be 80 and sunny!  But I really am appreciating my flip flips in this hot weather!  And speaking of flip flops my favorite to wear are the OluKai Paniolo, they are like butter on your feet and worth the money.

Love, Peace....Flip Flops what more do you need?

You can find the Love, Peace... Flip Flops necklace HERE.  It is one of my original designs and a favorite!

Hi-Yo Silver Away!  Does that bring back memories? I can remember watching The Lone Ranger as a kid. My Dad always watched the show so this brought back old memories for me.  The Lone Ranger is America's classic Western hero and a steadfast symbol for truth and justice.  Three all-new classic Lone Ranger DVD singles, The Lone Ranger: Hi-Yo Silver, Away!, The Lone Ranger: Kemo Sabe, and The Lone Ranger: Who Was That Masked Man?, are available for $6.99 each. I really enjoyed watching these classics!   You can find the entire collection HERE

New in the shop Tagua Nut necklaces

A beautiful POP of color with the Multi Colored Tagua necklace. This piece has 5 Tagua Nut's that are attached to a beautiful 18 inch chunky sterling silver chain. This necklace is a One Of A Kind as each Tagua nut is slightly different, you will receive the necklace pictured.

Tagua Nuts – also known as Vegetable Ivory are seeds that come from the tropical rainforest of South America. The seeds are sliced, dyed and polished. Each Tagua Nut is unique and has it's own variations making each a one of a kind seed. Tagua Nuts are very close to the density of animal ivory. Tagua is replacing the slaughter of mammal ivory (elephants and other) in the textile and fashion industries. In one year, one tagua palm produces as much ivory as an average female African elephant. No HARM is done to the nature and hundreds of families are employed by the Tagua nut production market. Tagua Nuts are thin, lightweight and durable.
