I'm Michelle Cox -- the owner of Lipstick to Crayons. I’m also a Mom to three kids (a teen, tween and toddler), a professional writer (www.michellemcox.com) and a blogger (www.fromthemom.com). And I love to save money (and help you do the same) via frugal deals and steals, coupons and other thrifty practices. My freelance writing business allows me to enjoy the great balance of being a stay-at-home/work-at-home mom, while also making time for blogging, running (ran the Chicago Marathon twice) some amateur photography and scrapbooking. I’m a St. Louis native, although I have lived outside of the city and the state. A few of my passions are amateur photography, scrapbooking and attending kids' sporting events.

Fab Finds Friday

Today’s fab find is all about finding the perfect gift and adding a personalized twist. Who does not love the fresh fruity scent of Clinique’s Happy perfume? Now for the holiday season, Clinique is offering this classic fragrance bottle personalized with your very own photo. So easy- simply go to clinique and upload your favorite photo and and preview what it will look like on the perfume bottle. I had fun adding a photo of my sister/partner to a bottle (thank goodness, I could not save the image or it would be posted here instead of the 2 pretty young things shown). Even if you aren’t interested in purchasing the bottle, it was lots of fun adding different photos and seeing how each looked on a perfume bottle. What a perfect gift to give grandma- a perfume bottle with a photo of her grandchildren. Who would have ever thought of such a thing?
