Rockin' Robin or the Twitter Bird...


I have been Twittering for awhile now. Starting out I didn't know too much about what or how to Twitter. So if you are new to Twitter like I was, or just want to maximize your Twitter efforts to promote your business, you can find a sea of info on the Internet to help you. It can be a daunting task finding the good stuff so I thought I would share the blogs and info that I particularly like on the subject.

Have fun!

Audrey Hepburn's Advice


I don’t remember watching Audrey Hepburn movies when I was younger but I have seen snippets of her movies. She always seemed so full of grace and charm. She left behind these Beauty Tips that still work today.

Beauty Tips by Audrey Hepburn:

For attractive lips,
Speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes,
Seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure,
Share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair,
Let a child run his fingers through it once a day.
For poise,
Walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed. Never throw out anybody.
Remember: if you ever need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm. As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.


Great advice for any age. Are you an Audrey Hepburn fan?

The Pink Tree

I came across this site and thought this was a fun idea for any of us that are creative and make things. It's called The Pink Tree. Here is what it is all about:


Welcome to The Pink Tree, product review site. The concept is simple, send your small products in for review, their picture will be taken, a review will be written about you (your company) and the product, and you will have the satisfaction of seeing your product numerous times in the review pictures. Readers will be able to do a back search for the other products shown on the tree.When the tree is full, certain products can be donated to proper charities, in your company's name.It is a simple concept that can bring joy and publicity to your company. http://thepinktreefrommilkandcookeez.blogspot.com/

Any kind of products that women or kids would like are welcome--they don't have to be bath and body products. When the "tree" is filled, the products will be donated to a charity. So you can get some publicity and help someone in need too. What of yours could be put on the Pink Tree?
