We start asking this question around here at around 10am.

Sometimes we order out,sometimes we skip, but most of the time we bring our lunch to work in one of these hot,stylish insulated lunch totes!pink lunch tote

Seriously,these bags look like a stylish tote,but they will keep your hot food hot,and your cold food cold.

With fall coming,and back to school these will make even the most discriminating diva happy!

New Year Resolutions

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

It’s that time again… time to reflect on the past year and review my goals for this next year. I have always loved selling apparel, and will still sell the swimwear and tote bags that i have always sold on the http://www.brookeboutique.com site.

   However, as i posted in some past blogs, i decided to pull the gift and other stuff off of Brooke Boutique,and do a new website http://www.theblingthing.com ,and hey while i am  at it, why not open a retail store?lol

   So that is what i did! I opened TBT(The Bling Thing) in downtown Saline, in October of this year. I love it! I have been planning this store since  i was 8 years old. The website by the same name is now ready,and we are loading it as fast as we can.

I have always had an accessory store on my wish list, but did i think i would open a retail store in 2009? NO WAY! All i can say is that i was open to a new adventure, i knew i would have to continue to make my own job(no jobs in Michigan),and i have never seen a store even close to what i have at TBT.

So, when you are reviewing your resolutions for the year, you don’t have to make them specific. Open your heart, your ears,and your eyes. You never know… you may be living your own Bling Thing!

Painting a Concrete Floor

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

Floor
As i have mentioned before,Decorating with Color I love to decorate with color! We are in development for our new retail accessories store The Bling Thing,and are in the process of setting up.

 The first thing we decided is that we didn’t want to go with boring carpet.The floor was just concrete, and we had to decide between carpet, tile, linoleum, or paint.We decided to  paint the floor! Why not? If it doesn’t work out, we can always carpet, or do one of the othe applications. Paint is inexpensive, yet it adds something unique,and fun to the space!

Mr. Brooke Boutique designed this 4 color design, and painted it in stages. He sealed the whole thing with a lacquer. We think it came out spectacularly! What do you think? If it doesn’t end up holding up nicely, there is always builder beige carpet!

Our new website and retail boutique TheBlingThing.com

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

I am so excited to announce that a dream of mine since i was a teenager is about to come true! No, i am not going to kiss Shaun Cassidy! We are in development for a new retail accessories store, The Bling Thing. We will be located in Saline, Michigan right downtown.

We plan to pull most of the gift items, off of our brookeboutique.com website and turn it into strictly resort and swimwear.The gift items, jewelry,and bling apparel will go onto TheBlingThing.com which is currently in development.

When i was a young woman, there was this woman who owned an accessory store downtown Ann Arbor. She had so much talent, everytime i went into her place, i would fall in love all over again. She died many years ago of HIV,and i hope in some small way that this site is memorable and would be a good tribute to her.

We should be open for biz soon, will keep the blog updated!
