I’ll resume regular ‘how-to make contemporary things’ – articles tomorrow, but today, I want to give you the heads-up on some too-good-to-miss deals.
Cyber Monday Deals
Cyber Monday Deals Week is actually all week and has already started. New deals will be added every couple of hours. Expect your favorites to sell out rather quickly.
The deals you can get are amazing! Hard to stay focus on what you truly need, but I’ve done my best. I scoured around for the best XMAS gifts and ‘need now’ creative solutions.
My 5 Top Lifestyle Deals: 1. iPod w. SOUND SYSTEM
I just bought this last year and adore our sound system! Get your music system at a discount today/this week to enjoy all Jingle Bell music and a year-round swinging life.
a. iPod Touch
In case you don’t know, an iPod Touch is essentially an iPhone without the phone but with all the other extra features and apps.
Did you know that you can use Skype on an iPod Touch and so use it like a phone at all Wi-Fi spots? You can use all internet-based apps too. Just get to your favorite local coffee shop to get the most out of your ‘music’ device/camera/organizer/personal planner/gadget-all-in-one. The iPod Touch offers a super-inexpensive way to enjoy all the features of an iPhone, except for full-time phone service. Buy it today for a better price than in the Apple Store.

Want an iPod Touch as a gift? Make something personal to match this gift & amazing sound system: crochet a fun iPod cozy.
b. Bose Sound System for your iPod/iPhone
Bose Sound Dock Series II Digital Music System for iPod (Black)
Believe me, I listened to ALL of them in several stores, and this one wins hands down. Yes, it is worth the difference in price, as it indeed is that much superior. PORTABLE Bose Sound System & Dock

2. SEWING MACHINES
This ‘toy’ is just hard to pass up: 67% off!!!! Now only $145. Brother CS6000i Advance Sew Affordable 60-Stitch Computerized Free-Arm Sewing Machine with Hard Case & More!
. With 1100 customers voting it a 4.5 out of 5, this model has proven itself. Not an ordinary sewing machine, but rather a computerized sewing machine; with 60 stitch functions (some really cute embroidery stitches there), plus 7 styles of 1-step buttonholes, and variety of snap-on presser feet. Easy enough for a beginner seamstress, and sophisticated enough to make an advanced quilt maker truly happy.
3. Clothing
Such as sweaters & knitwear.

4. Jewelry
I know: we all like to bead our own earrings, however you can’t beat the prices on these and not all jewelry are of the Make-Your-Own variety (unless you’re a trained jeweler).
Pick something special for yourself: jewelry, up to 75% off (learn more on Amazon) Check out also the lightning deals. New ones are added throughout each day, and sell out superfast.
Rather than hipsters, how do you like these classic real diamond earrings ?!They’re classic beauty that matches all styles. Perhaps a gift you’d like to give yourself or a friend?
5. ‘MOST WISHED FOR’
