Product Review for Beeutiful Creations

I was given the opportunity to review some items from Beeutiful Creations, a maker of hair accessories for girls. I have been blessed with two boys, so I had to enlist the help of a friend! Her little girls were so excited to help! It could not have gone any better- one loved the dainty little ribbon bows, while the other wanted the flower clips! They were even kind enough to model them for me! :)


The bows consisted of a ribbon-lined alligator clip. This ensured a no slip grip, as well as kept it from snagging or pulling hair!
The best part is that they are only $1 each or two for $1.50! Yes, you read that right!!

            
The custom hair flowers are equally spectacular! At only $4 each, they have so many possibilities! While they were originally created as hair accessories, my model wanted to try it out as a bag accessory! They could also be clipped to a dress, a back pack, or anything else you can think of! They are even large enough for adults to wear. This would be a great addition to a mother/daughter outfit!

Other available items include korker bows, smaller flowers, and seasonal specialties!Custom work is also available to coordinate any event! head over to Beeutiful Creations today and design yours! Make sure to let her know who sent you!

MCN Designs Product Review


By: Melissa Ringsted:
I was lucky enough to be chosen to do a product review for Melissa, the owner of MCN Designs. I am not completely computer dumb, but on certain things I do have a difficult time. This is where someone as talented as Melissa comes in! First off, I contacted her about the product review. She was very quick in responding to me and asking me what she could do for me. I let her know I was looking for a new logo, created specifically for me, and also a welcome page for my business page. She asked me what I was looking for. Unfortunately for Melissa I am a very indecisive person. I gave her a vague idea of what I like and she returned, quickly, with a mock-up of a logo for me. I liked it, but didn't love it. So I asked her to add an owl. I ended up with a logo I am in LOVE with.
From there she created a welcome page for me. She worked off of the vague design I had tried, unsuccessfully, to create on my own. Of course, with as amazing as she was helping me do the logo I KNOW she could help you create an equally amazing Welcome page from scratch, if you don't already have one.

Melissa was patient, and more than willing to help me walk through all the little snags I ran across due to my lack of computer knowledge! Be sure to head on over to http://www.facebook.com/mcndesigns. Believe me when I tell you, you WILL NOT be disappointed in the customer service, product and pricing of this business. Remember, your logo is the first thing people will see! It speaks volumes about you and your company. You want something to attract people, aside from just your amazing product, and Melissa's job is to help you create that and walk with you thru the whole process, as she did me. As Melissa so nicely signs all her emails"The purpose of life is a life of purpose"
