  1. I was curious if you ever considered changing the page layout of your
    website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
    so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text
    for only having one or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

  14. Soak jewelry in hot water using a mild detergent or baby shampoo for a few minutes.

    The nacre of fake pearls near the drill holes flakes away easier compared to
    a natural ones. It looks especially great when combined with
    rich chocolate browns and denim.
