If you suffer from a life threatening condition and need to wear a medical alert bracelet, the choices used to be utilitarian and boring.
Finally, there’s a new alternative called Boomi’s Beads and these ID bracelets are trendy, fun and attractive. Made of almost 50 strands of stainless steel that are woven together and coated with nylon, you can rest assured that they won’t stretch or break. The actual medical tags are constructed of stainless steel and the medical symbol (caduceus) is dye struck and color filled.
And if that isn’t enough to get you excited, a portion of all of Boomi’s Beads is donated to several worthy organizations including JDRF, The Breast Cancer Society and Autism Awareness.

Old, damaged and discarded books take on a new life as fashionable purses over at Rebound Designs. Each tote is actually made from hardback books - the pages are removed and the cover is left intact.
Handcrafted from start to finish, it’s a process that takes anywhere from 8-10 hours to create. From the Book of Hymns to Nancy Drew, check their site regularly for new titles and styles.

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to get back into shape then you might want to listen up! Getting fit is good for you. Good for your body. Great for your heart. But, if you’re like most people out there, the return to exercising may be a bit painful… sore muscles, aching joints – you get the picture.
So get prepared, just “in case”, by stocking up with a jar or two of Stiff and Sore Cream. It’s a super-moisturizing, super-healing treatment for sore muscles, without the horrible medicinal smell!
Wonderfully rich and 100% natural with a fabulously fresh and clean fragrance, Stiff and Sore Cream contains a whole host of good stuff including arnica (a well-known homeopathic remedy); comfrey for powerful anti-inflammatory action; aloe vera gel for soothing skin; grapeseed oil for antioxidant moisturizing; peppermint essential oil to create heat; and tea tree essential oil for antibacterial properties. Each jar is handmade, hand poured and hand packaged (SRP $24).
Use Stiff and Sore before and after working out. After all, it was originally created for tri-athletes. And maybe, just maybe your new regime may lead you down that road. But let’s just get past those first few exercise classes….
