Just a Few Things!

Hey everyone!!

I just wanted to pop in  and let you know about a few things that have been happening over here.  Well, the first big change is that I decided to go blond.  Mr. Main has been asking me for years if I would bleach my hair.

The conversation usually ended with me throwing my hands up in the air saying,

“Eh, its not for me, I’m a brunette!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One day I literally woke up and said to myself “ok, I guess I will give it a try” maybe you have heard me say that before 🙂

So I went on a little trip to my parents house and had a girl there give me some high lights.

We came home and Mr. Main was surprised and happy that I had gone blond.  If you know me at all then you might have gathered that I really don’t do things half way. It’s almost always all or nothing.

I wasn’t satisfied with just highlights, I wanted to go platinum. dun…dun…dun… (in a deep descending voice)

If you also know me, then you might know that I am super duper cheap.  I paid the first and only person to do anything to my hair, besides a hair cut, $50 to highlight it.

Which, I did feel was a good price, she is in a very small town and can’t charge like they do in Hollywood….! haha

Since I am cheap I wanted to see if I could achieve the beautiful blond color I so desired on my own…. I asked my trusty friend YouTube for help because everything on there is right…. right?

I found what seemed the most reliable video and went for it.  After three days and bleaching my entire head like 3 or 4 times, I can’t remember how many now, it was finished.

I do have to say that there were times of serious doubt.  Like the second time I bleached it and it totally turned orange.

I said to myself “I am DONE.”

I knew I was doomed to spend the rest of my life with orange hair.  But, I prevailed and luckily, it worked out.

So you might be wondering if these pictures really are the same person.  I assure it is just little old me!! My family and friends have looked at me and didn’t even recognize me so it will take time.  For a while I would catch my reflexion in a mirror and have to take a second look myself.  haha

At the beginning of this post I told you there were a few things happening over here. The next big thing is that I have been having a really big response about my Barn Wood Jewelry Holders.  Because of this I have decided to offer a few for purchase, if you would like.

Be on the lookout for further details!!! Shoot me an email if you for sure want one.  I will put you on the list since I will only be able to make a few of them. It’s not like barn wood grows on trees, haha.

The last thing is that Hawthorne & Main is finally getting the makeover she deserves.  I look back on my futile attempts to make her pretty and it just wasn’t happening.  So I have decided it is time to make the switch over to WordPress.  I think you guys will like the layout and ease-ability  much better.  I am still working on getting it set up but next week is our official launch.  Please bare with us and we work out all of the inevitable kinks!
