WOW-O-WOW! Where do I start? I feel the need to tell ya stuff you may not know, I feel like it should be something cool and in the end, it'll just be fun things that come to mind while typing this!!

1) Every time I get home I must wash my hands....that way any of the germs I contracted while being out are gone and not in my house! My fave soaps are the anti-bacterial kind from Bath & Body....

Warm Vanilla Sugar is ALWAYS my go-to fragrance for moisturizers, body spray, home fragrance, hand sanitizers, etc.....

 When I am feeling a lil adventurous I get Caribbean Escape - a vacation in a bottle

While looking at the website I found this one - Fresh Picked Lemons.....I'm gonna have to try that one - have you tried it? Sounds delishly fresh! 

2) I prefer COKE to Pepsi.....Coke is so much sweeter and to me has a kinda cinnamon-y taste

3) I have ONE sibling....a sister who's younger....sadly we aren't as close as we used to be OR as I would like to be (If you're reading this Steph...Love ya!)

4) I LOVE LOVE LOVE leopard.....the "classy" leopard. I hear laughs already - the non-print animals lovers are like what? Classy Leopard? Um yeah, there is classy leopard!! Y'all know the diff diff! 

5) I prefer shorter hair on me.....funny enough, when I look at pics it seems every winter I manage to grow my hair to shoulder length and then come summer hack it off!

Tell me, which look do YOU think suits my face best? Longer (shoulder length) or short and sassy? I am trying to grow it out PAST my shoulders but I just can't stand the in-between length.

6) I Heart pearls....earrings, necklaces, bracelets, home accents.....I think they are CLASSIC and glammy! 

 Pearl Bracelets

 Pearls and Feathers (I made these)

 Pearl Jewelry

 Pearl Decorative Balls and VIntage Tiffany Pearl Ad

 Pearl Candle Ring

 A Pearl "Acorn" Made by Moi

A WIP (Work In Progress) my pearly cell phone cover - inspired by Pinterest.

7) I ALWAYS want to appear like I have it together BUT I have been told I do NOT have a "Poker Face"

8) I am finding that the things I used to not like I am LOVING! For example - skully and crossbones, the color MAGENTA (I have ALWAYS hated pink BUT magenta is so HAPPY)

9) I always carry a bottle of water with me AND have one on my night stand

10) When I was a kid I HATED my name (Janae - pronounced like Renee BUT with a "J" obviously). Teachers could never say it correctly, there was never any cool stickers or toothbrushes or keyrings with my name on it...but NOW, I LOVE my name! I think it's  a perfect fit!

11) I work best under pressure.....I like to think I am a planner BUT when I get a head start, I land up falling behind! 

Wow, that was easier than I thought it would be! Sorry for the picture heavy post - I was on a ROLL! (Plus I think a post with pics is so much more fun!)

NOW, to answer the questions to Makaila! 

That was kinda silly and fun!  Alright... here's my questions from M:

01.  Do you consider yourself creative? YES!! I LOVE to create, invent and use things in different ways! I love using all sorts of mediums - paper, paints, glues, jewelry, etc Blog world and Pinterest are such AMAZING sources for inspiration! 

02.  What is your proudest accomplishment? My proudest accomplishment are my Children.....they amaze me on a day to day basis with the things they say and do! 

03.  Would you ever met a blog friend in real life? ABSOLUTELY!! 

04.  Do you have a "Bucket List"?  Sadly, I don't BUT I have thought about making one - I SO should make one.....

05.  What actress do you secretly covet a body part from? That's a tough one....I sat here giving some thought to that question and ya know what, there isn't one.....I of course would like to be thinner and more fit BUT I CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN!! 

06.  Truth Or Dare? Dare

07.  Botox or All-Natural? All Natural (Although I do waiver with getting botox.....)

08.  What is your greatest characteristic? This is another tough one...my best characteristic - I am creative. I see things with a unique eye. My friends are always asking my help when it comes to decorating or creative inspiration - I LOVE that!!

11.  World Peace or A Million Bucks? I feel like I am supposed to say "World Peace" BUT lets face it folks, that's a really lofty wish that is far less likely to happen than me getting a million bucks. Hope y'all don't judge - that was a hard one to answer BUT I should answer honestly, right?
