Good old Maybelline Great Lash - (pink & green tube) or if you want/need thicker lashes - Maybelline Volum Express (dk. blue tube). I keep both on hand. I have long lashes, but light in color so I like to use mascara. Have been using them since I started using masacara 30 yrs. ago. I continually see the Maybelline Great Lash recommended as #1 by make up artists, models, etc. Wash off easily with soap and water. No rubbing, no makeup remover. Best part is they both are very reasonably priced. I have at times in the past tried the Lancome, Clinque and other "department store" mascaras when I received them in a gift bonus with purchase of cologne. No other mascara has ever been as dependable and consistent as the standby. Just my $.02.

Thank you for all of the suggestions. Lindac, Yes, I think there will be a lot of colors, but I think I'm ok with that since it will be a playroom for my 3 year olds. I don't want the yellow to blow me away though either. Has anyone ever used BM shooting star, BM counting stars or BM north star? This room will get very, very little natural light, just fyi. I've also included the link to the other decal that I will be using in the room. Here is a link that might be useful: snow white decal

Thanks for the links...check out all the browns on this page... I love the animal prints as well as the gator fabric. But maybe the animal prints would be too over the top. Maybe a mocha chenille with some red in it? anyhow, love all these fabrics. funkyart, I fell in love with the chair more for it's comfort, than the style. If it wasn't so super comfortable I probably would have passed on it, since I already have 2 other wing backs... Here is a link that might be useful: Browns and Tan fabric

Lol! You should see our Thibodeaux and Fontenot family reunions, you'd think you were in the back woods of.. well, you WOULD be.. lol Cooking is not just an art, it is also a work of love. They cook and eat gumbo like most people eat burgers. It's a staple of their life and they do it without thinking. If you asked my mom how to make gumbo, hell.. she'd say, "I don't have it written down, I just... make it.." So, I got it by watching her make it. Now, I altered mine a bit, but to write down everything I do.. not sure I could because I tend to do it just a little different each time. To that end, if you read up on how to make a good roux, many, if not most, people worth their weight in salt tell you how you can store some extra for later use. Same concept, just had it made by someone else.. heh. Anyway, to each their own and when I make my gumbo, the only people turning their nose up to it are the people I would not invite over anyway ;) Anyone down here around Bastrop, TX is welcome to join us! lol Russ
