The banjo isn’t exactly a chick-magnet, it’s more like a chick repellent”, jokes Rob Bishline. Nothing can phase Rob and his love for banjos, he was bitten by the “banjo bug” years ago! Rob was just a little boy when he saved his lawn mowing money to start his life-long career of playing, teaching and building banjos. These banjos are truly works of art and he sells these treasures all over the world!
Avocado face masks are one of the best and most nutritious masks that you can use on your skin. I’m always looking for new ways to keep my skin youthful and healthy. So, I searched Pinterest for a refreshing mask that I can make at home!
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, avocados are moisturizing without clogging pores… What you may not know is that avocados also contain Vitamin C, a natural skin brightener for any sunspots you may have recently acquired. JACKPOT!
I found a DIY Face Mask by the Beauty Munsta… and it only calls for two ingredients, Avocado and Yogurt. Easy enough.
What You’ll Need:
1 avocado
1/4 cup yogurt
Directions
1. Cut an avocado into two halves. Using a clean spoon, scoop out the avocado and place it in a small bowl.
2. Add yogurt.
3. Mash and mix up the two ingredients until you form a thick & creamy paste.
It’s go time!
The original recipe called for one teaspoon of avocado and one teaspoon of yogurt, I went ahead and used the whole avocado… that way there is plenty to smear around!
So, what’s the verdict?
Pros: It’s easy and doesn’t require many ingredients
Cons: It’s messy! Prep to get the mixture all over the place during application.
Overall- I’d say it was a Pin-It! It’s going to take some time to see the results as far as skincare goes, but a recipe this easy to do to is worth trying! Click Here for the Deep Hydrating Avocado Mask.

It’s the ultimate summer hairstyle that takes you from the office to happy hour or the gym to the beach, a cool braid will never let you down. Let’s be honest though, can you create one of these luxurious looks without a visit to the stylist?
I searched Pinterest for hairstyle tutorials that were beautiful and easy for me to do in a pinch. I found a lot of different looks that could help me get out of this ponytail rut. A blog called “Twist My Pretty” posted this gorgeous style with a tutorial.
The blogger says, “This is probably the prettiest hairstyle I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. Not only is it simply gorgeous, but it’s incredibly easy. I learned a new technique on getting braids to look fuller, so make sure you checkout the video tutorial. You’re just going to die!”
I can do a single braid in a snap, but can I pull off the “Braided Crown”?
I watched this tutorial, followed her the step-by-step directions… and…It’s not perfection, but for my first time… I think it turned out fabulous! DID I MENTION IT ONLY TOOK ME ABOUT 45 SECONDS?!
Ladies, this is a hairstyle anyone could tackle, and it’s perfect for medium/long hair.
So, without further a-do… This is a PIN-IT!

“I encourage everyone to get out of their comfort zone, because you might just find a new one”. I did, half way around the world!”
Just a few short years ago Myra Grayson bought two goats to clear the brush on her property and now she has a new found passion for goats. She refers to her herd as her “kids” and each goat has a name. She and her high school sweetheart care for these animals at their own oasis, Grayslland Acres.
These acres are picturesque, goats grazing the open land is Myra’s happy place. She soon found another use for her goats and began making soap and lotions out of their milk. Goat milk is wonderful because it has the same Ph as human milk.
Last year, she was invited to go Kenya with a mission group called Centerwill. Myra and the missionaries taught women the trade of making goat milk soap. This forever changed her life and now Myra goes annually to share her love of these sweet animals with women half way around the world. Myra proves it is never too late to find your joy… and sharing your joy is one of the greatest fulfillment’s ever!
Here’s latest adventure with Myra “crazy goat lady” that’s making the world a better place!
