Gluten Free...Yes Please
Stephanie Strom - NY Times - Feb 17, 2014

Mayo Clinic survey in 2012 concluded that only 1.8 million Americans have celiac disease, the autoimmune disorder that causes the body to attack the small intestine when gluten is ingested and can lead to other debilitating medical problems if not diagnosed

Girl Scouts recently introduced a gluten free chocolate chip shortbread cookie, vodka companies are battling over cheating Gluten Free version of there products, Trader Joe is marketing Gluten Free products

Gluten Free households are reported purchases for Gluten Free Food products hit 11% last year, up fro 5% in 2010

Gluten Free products sales estimates more than 15 billion in annual sales, up for 10.5 million last year

About 30% of the public says it would like to cut back on the amount of gluten its eating

18 million people or about 6% of the population has the gluten sensitivity

People with Celiac Disease are not the majority of consumers who are driving this market
DIY Camouflage Print Nails 


Start with a nude base color


Use end of nail polish brush or q-tip to dot on green color polish creating random blob shapes on nails

Take a brown toned polish and use the same dotting technique to create blobs that fill some of the gaps and overlap onto the green 

Use a Black polish to fill more gaps and overlap the other colors used


Float a layer of fast drying top coat over the top to smooth out the bumps and give it a professional looking finish

I wanted to do something a little different with my nails this week. Its not perfect, but its defiantly eye catching. 

Have a lovely Friday Friends

Blessings 
Mary
