Lilla Rose Giveaway

Blueberry Syrup

I wanted to share this blueberry syrup recipe I’ve been using for the last few years.  I may have found it on Allrecipes, but I can’t say for sure.

This goes great on pancakes, isn’t overly sweet, and is nice and chunky with all the fruit remaining rather than strained out.  Homemade fruit syrups are a bit less viscous than store-bought syrups, so if yours seems a bit runny, it’s probably just right.  :)

Syrups are really easy to can as well.  This recipe makes 5 pints.

Blueberry Syrup

2 qt. fresh blueberries

5 cups water

2 cups sugar

3 T. fresh lemon juice

Add blueberries, water and sugar to large stockpot.  Stir together and bring to boil, boiling for 5 minutes.  Turn off heat and stir in lemon juice.  Ladle into pint jars and process in waterbath canner for 10 minutes.

Top Ten Picks for Summer Flexi-Clips

Whew!  We’re having a heat wave in Ohio.  I know it’s nothing compared to what some of you are experiencing, but 97 degrees is hot where I live.  And humid hot means it’s really hot.

Got your hair up?  I sure do.  Can’t think of a better way to wear it up than with a pretty flexi clip.  And there are seven sizes and dozens of gorgeous styles available on my Lilla Rose website.

I’m also running a new customer special now through the end of the month–buy 3, get 1 free—see my website for details.

Fun Girly Hairstyle Tutorial

I’ve been playing with the girls’ hair some more and recently came up with this fun new “do” to share with you.

Begin with a simple pony tail, secured with an elastic band.

It seems to me that somebody somewhere sells a little tool to make this next step easier, but it works just fine using your fingers too.  You’ll want to divide the hair in half vertically between the scalp and the elastic.  I wiggle a finger down through the middle to create a space.

Next flip the pony tail up and into that space you just created, then pull it down and clear through.  To make things easier, I twist the hair in the pony before pushing it through the hole; that helps it not get tangled with the rest.

There is probably a name for this style that’s created, but if so, I don’t know what it is.  It’s cute all by itself.  Or you could dress it up with a flexi-clip.

But Hannah’s hair is a great length to add another step, giving her a cute little flip-do, which looks especially sweet with the popular “Crown of Hearts” flexi-clip she’s modeling. With her baby-fine hair, she wears a size mini.

Just flip the hair up and clip into place, letting the wispy ends fall where they may.

We love the little pink danglie in the middle!  Or as Elisabeth calls it—the “hangie-downer.”

Sweet!

Additional sizes and styles available on my Lilla Rose website.

Lilla Rose Online Party, Anyone?

Want to earn a free Lilla Rose flexi-clip?  It’s easy!  From now through the end of September, I’m running a hostess special—simply host an online party with at least 15 virtual guests, and receive a free mini flexi-clip just for hosting!  This is in addition to any of the other free Lilla Rose products you earn from the party.

(You can host smaller parties anytime too and still earn hostess gifts, but the current mini special is for 15+ online guests.)

Mini’s are very versatile and will work in variety of hair types—from a full pony in baby-fine 3-year-old hair to clipping back just a tuft in super-thick hair.  My little girls love the mini’s!

Interested?  Just go here to arrange a party as well as see all the benefits you can receive for being an online party hostess.  You can also leave me a comment here on my blog (along with your email address if I don’t already have it,) and I’ll get in touch with you that way.
