I learned flower arrangement during college and the subject was Culture and Arts. I got a flat 1.0 grade because my teacher was so impressed of the way how arranged red roses mixed with white camias. I learned my teacher was a spinster.LOL.

Flower arranging is an art and quite a few here must be having it in them and making great arrangements specially for festive occasions. I created this arrangement for one Christmas
As I have already mentioned elsewhere I had a flower arrangements exhibition a few years ago

I have several interest and flower arrangements is one of them. I had an exhibition a few years ago with free style and ikebana flower arrangements. I hotel bought quite a few of them.
Here’s one:
Here the emphasis is given to a croton which does contribute to an exquisite arrangement and you will see there are no flowers.

By the way, I meat to say that in our family MamaOzzy, my oldest daughter is the designated hair cutter. She is very artistic. and loves to read books about hair styling or to watch YouTube videos showing how to do certain hair styles or cuts.
She uses the shaver to cut her Daddy’s hair and her younger brother’s. But she uses the scissors to cut…[Read more]
I don’t think it’s a very good idea for me personally to do hair cutting, as I would likely leave the hair terribly crooked!
But I grew up having my mother trim my hair when I needed it, as I never got the cut I wanted at the salon, and the hair dressers never knew what to do with my long, thick hair. And I do mean thick!
I broke down when I had…[Read more]

@peachpurple I do none of this but I let a hairdresser do the job for me. Yes, if you count shaving facial hair then I am doing this job for myself for decades as I haven’t spent a single cent on this particular head.

@grecy095/
honestly, I learned from the hairdresser.
Whenever my daughter has a hair cut, I accompanied her.
So, I sit on the sofa, observed how the lady hairdresser cut her hair.
Gradually, I cut my own hair, ugly, uneven, I don’t care, at least I saved money for the past 10 years.
My son prefers I cut his hair too. Looks alike a coconut…[Read more]

I braid my own hair, but I only cut a bangs not the whole hair. I haven’t done it. At YouTube, there are people who cut their own hair and they will tell others how they do that. It is a quite amazing skill. You are very talented for doing that @Peachpurple. I hope you will try to let us do it. How did you learned cutting your hair? I let my hair…[Read more]

Oh I remember this adult coloring book. I wonder if I could color it inside a vehicle while I am stuck in traffic, lol. I love to have one. If I will receive my salary this week I will try to check out coloring books at the school supplies store and starts coloring at home when I cannot log in in the site.

I love to color. I started again when I worked a practical nurse who also did activity therapy. I also do some needlepoint and I do latchhook (hooked rugs). I like the pictures when they are finished. It is almost like a painting except with thread and yarn.

I have a brother who used to cut hair but he is sick and can’t hold his hands steady any more. I tried to cut my own hair but it turns out when I decide to get a hair cut the salon lady gives me a GI cut to get things growing back evenly. I like it short that way I don’t have to fool with it. Washing my hair is easier with it very very short also.…[Read more]
