Carolyn Braden's New Thing: Writing for eHow
My new year, new thing: I will write more!
I am now a contributing writer for www.ehow.com.
My first article was just published. You can check it out below by clicking on the link. It is about how to use my new favorite Lush product, Charlotte Island skin tint. I blogged about it a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to share the news about how it's a great alternative to self-tanners and tanning in the sun (and in tanning beds).

I plan to write articles about style, fashion, and beauty products, but I also will write about other topics. I am currently an art educator, so I plan to write articles that inspire people to create art projects and crafts. Having taught art to elementary and middle school age students, I've figured out very simple and easy ways to break down hard projects. Going on my 7th year of teaching, I've learned a lot and I am excited to take my knowledge to the next level, which is writing about it. I write a blog about what is going on in my classroom and about certain art projects called Braden's Art Stars.( http://bradensartstars.blogspot.com/ ) I also contribute my knowledge in the arts on other websites such as www.kinderart.com and SchoolArts Magazine.( http://www.davisart.com/portal/schoolarts/sadefault.aspx ) Now, withwww.ehow.com, I'm just adding more to my writing resume. And this is one step in the direction to keep my new year, new thing resolution!

Photo Consult
The photo consult went pretty good for Tommy and I yesterday. We met with our agent and photographer for our photo shoot on Sunday.
Like I've been saying in my fashion blog.....color is really in. Reds, Greens, and right now, any color pretty much goes. Even though it's winter, why do we have to dress in neutral colors?? Why do I have to put away my bright, cheery, yellow cardigan and save it until spring?
So, we need to do a little shopping around for T. He needs to dress in slimmer suits. The JFK, well cut, slim suit is really in style right now for men. Basically, our photos need to look like commercial stills or advertisements. After meeting with our agent, I understand the photo look. I brought props along, and I was right on for doing that! They wanted props and liked my ideas. I came home and pulled all kinds of other outfits and props together. I am going to take everything I can think of on Sunday, and let my agent pull out what she likes best. I took lots of notes based on her opinions so I could get it all right. After all, the photos not only represent us, but they will also represent the agency.
I am taking my peacock t-shirt and pretty silk blouse with the peacock print. They have blue and green in them and my agent liked those colors for me. I figured the peacock things will be a good conversation starter for bringing up my Pammie the Peacock idea to my agent...... :)
Until next time....
