Love it!

They always have unique beautiful stylish clothes. It does have a lot of choices. Great deals, I almost bought a pair cute shoes that were originally $200 but they were 21.99....too bad they were too small.

Aveda Earth Month 2014 CLEAN WATER CHANGES LIVES In honor of Earth Day, Aveda has set aside a whole month to love, celebrate and raise funds to protect the earth and its peoples.

We’ve raised more than $32 million since 1999. Over the last 7 years, $26 million of the funds supported clean water projects at home and around the world. Please join us in reaching our 2014 goal of $6 million and purchase a limited edition candle today!

Astrid’s Salon & Spa challenges you to take action at home with an outpouring of water tips.

Small changes can make a big difference. Find a tip that works for you and start saving water today.

Save electricity—and water It takes about 2 gallons of fresh water to generate each kilowatthour of traditional electricity. So turn it off if you’re not using it!

Prevent pollution - Buy organic produce—because runoff from traditional farms can pollute water.

Also recycle electronics, appliances, fluorescent light bulbs, silver batteries and paint—to help keep pollutants out of the water supply.

10

MO_MetroWomanMayJun14.indd 10

Shower smart - Get wet, then turn off the water. Apply shampoo and give yourself a little scalp massage. Rinse and turn off the water again. Condition your hair and cleanse your skin. Rinse.

Save 5–10 or more gallons of water a day!

Make meals meatless - Skip meat one day a week and save thousands of gallons of water! It takes up to 5,000 gallons of water to produce just one pound of meat.

Compost to conserve - Compost fruit and vegetable peelings and waste instead of using the garbage disposal. You’ll save gallons of water each time!

Brush better - Turn the water off when brushing your teeth. Save 4–10 gallons a day!

Fill up to cut down - Fill your washing machine and dishwasher before running them—to cut energy and water use. You can save even more by air-drying your clothes on a clothesline.

Linda Brooks Owner

“Whether I’m at home or here at Sewing Machines Express, I am constantly reminded of the joy of sewing and how much love and care goes into every stitch. I also think about all the unique people I have known because of all the beautiful gifts I have received. Quilts, pillows, framed embroidery art and more.

One special piece is a framed, embroidered picture with two doves and my wedding anniversary date. A gift from from my dear friend Rosalee Sifford. I have it hanging near my bedroom door so Jim has to pass it every time he comes in the room.

Pretty clever don’t you think? He has no excuse to forget.

Sewers are kind spirited, creative people. I am honored to be in this profession and see your creations in progress. If you haven’t been to Sewing Machines Express, come see us. Our goal is to keep you enthused, and to keep your creative juices flowing.”

Linda Brooks The Sewing Lady
