The Albright-Knox started with a vision for the Freedom Wall months ago and now four local artists are bringing it to life. The artists are John Baker, Julia Bottoms-Douglas, Chuck Tingley, and Edreys Wajed. The individuals involved in the project told News 4 there is no way to tell the history of civil rights through these portraits alone but they hope it will start a conversation and create an opportunity to educate the public. The mural is being painted on the NFTA Cold Springs Bus Depot wall , at the corner of Michigan Ave. and E. Ferry St. Twenty-eight civil rights leaders will be depicted, including Frederick Douglass and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr . There will also be leaders who made a mark on Buffalo, including Dr. Lydia T.

Spa Sleepover Turbie Twist Cupcakes

Gambar
Welcome back! My tween experienced a rite of passage this weekend. It was her 11th birthday, and either I am totally insane or the coolest mom ever, but she had a spa sleepover birthday party with 5 of her friends. I survived, and the girls had a blast. I will share all of the fun, crafty details in future posts, but here is a sneak peak at one of our crafty gift ideas for the guests. You all know that I like to wrap unexpected things into cupcakes shapes . I have given baby onesies and sock cupcakes as baby shower gifts , I have wrapped tween-sized tanks and socks into cupcakes, and I found it only fitting for a Spa Sleepover birthday party , to roll hair towel wraps and elastic hairbands into cupcakes for our party guests. I found a 6-pack of Turbie Twists on eBay. Then, I hot glued small pom poms onto small elastic hairbands . I rolled them into the center of each cupcake with the craft pom pom sticking out of the top. Then I secured the cupcake roll with a large elastic hea...

This post is part of a sponsorship with BabyCenter. Ok, can I get hands raised for everyone who absolutely LOVED registering …whether it was for your wedding or your first baby? Oh my goodness, the power that comes with that clicker!! The excitement that comes with the hopes of receiving every. single. one. of the items you have registered for. Since I’m in full on baby mode, why don’t we skip talk about a wedding registry and talk baby, baby, baby!! Although, how cool would it be if at your 10 year anniversary, you could legitimately register for wedding gifts all over again? That would be a blast!! I wonder how we could arrange this to become a norm.  Ok, anyways…moving right along 🙂 I have a fond love and devotion to Target. So naturally, that is going to be the first place I register, or suggest a pregnant momma registering . Being that I had my 4th baby a few weeks back, I’d say I’ve got a good handle on what is worth registering for and what is not. Let’s face it, there are som...

So you’re sick of your shower? You’ve seen some of the new gizmos at the home centers and you’d like to get in on the fun. This is going to be our first article in our new Plumbing 101 series. In this article we’ll talk about some of the latest features in shower plumbing and we’ll show you several piping diagrams that should help you decide what you want in your new bathroom apparatus and even how to pipe it yourself. SHOWER RAIN DOME This is a pretty easy upgrade . Basically it’s a huge shower head that makes you feel like you’re getting deluged with water. They come in different shapes like square and round and have a variety of sizes. The only thing you have to worry about is the height of the shower. Sometimes these rain domes sit lower in the shower. If the shower doesn’t have enough head room you’ll whack your noggin on it. SLIDE BAR WITH A HAND HELD SHOWER This can be done a couple different ways. Most commonly a slide bar is installed and the slide bar has an adjustable bra...

I’ve never been a big fan of baby showers (my children had Blessing Ways), and the silly baby shower games annoy me. The typical baby shower involves massive amounts of baby paraphernalia gifts that the soon-to-be mom often doesn’t really need. A friend of mine recently asked me to make a list of eco- friendly baby shower gift ideas . This list includes babywearing items , bpa-free bottles, teething toys, clothes, and beauty products for babe. You don’t have to be invited to an “eco” baby shower to give a green gift. Top Ten Eco-Friendly Baby Shower Gifts Moby Wrap Baby Carrier: This wrap is perfect for carrying newborns. It is the most comfortable baby wearing apparatus , and it keeps the baby snugly held against your body and protected from curious strangers and their germs. It is made from a large piece of stretch cotton and can be used as a blanket as well as a wrap. It is available in an organic cotton material too. California Baby Shampoo and Bodywash: This all natural, S...
