15 things I Love About My Husband

Hello everybody today's post is inspired by  Myne Whitman's post


I was raised knowing that I would have to marry a bonny man as it was the right thing to do, being the first born and all (tradition right?). So I set out looking for eligible bonny young men to marry. For years I didn't find any one that liked me or that I liked, but I still continued praying about it. After university I realized that I had to broaden my scope or I may not go down that path...LOL...
Anyways when Temi came into the picture I sure as hell didn't want to marry a Yoruba guy but as I decided to broaden my scope I let it flow and flow it did.

SO 15 things I love about my husband: as follows

1. He is dependable... Temi can be in Timbuktu and still get a call from me if I have a flat tire, he would sort it out.
2. He is tall a lot taller than me and I love that.
3. He is handsome and has big eyes, love that my daughter has his eyes.
4. He is God fearing
5. Not traditional in his thinking I usually tease him that he is a white man in a black man skin
6. He cooks and really does that well. I hate to say this but he cooks better than me
7. He is very adventurous: Beware this may lead to High Blood Pressure....lol just kidding)..He is not afraid to follow his dreams
8. Very supportive of whatever I choose to do with my life:
9. Not selfish
10.Very intelligent
11. Reads a lot, vast and wide.
12. He is very educated... I call him Professor some times.
13. He is very close to his family ie his siblings and I love that relationship.
14. I think when Yosola grows up she is going to boast to all her friends that her father is the best dad in the world, because he is.
15. He reads my blog



Anyways take care of yourself and wishing y'all a wonderful weekend.

Ciao

Check This Out

Before I started the process on how to make bags, I had a business plan of how I was going to build an empire, in fact my starting cost was so huge that Temi told me I wasn't serious....IMAGINE.

Over the years I have learnt that nothing comes easy. With all the glamor that comes with fashion one will think that its as easy as ABC: well that's not true.

According to Tiffany Amber: the fashion industry is hard work, harder than you think, you've got to have the passion to stay there no matter what

I loooove fashion accessories and I love making them.... I may not be perfect but I am getting there. With this I present to you: Ami Clutch



This clutch bag is uniquely dyed and hand crafted from start to finish.

The first time I tried dyeing, it was a disaster, I considered giving up, but like everything you get better with practice.

I hope you like it.

For orders call 08094440178 or send me an email: tmkamson@gmail.com


Take care of yourself and have a good night's rest.

Ciao.

P.S. Yosola is 7 months today can you believe it?

IT WILL COME IN DUE TIME

Good morning everyone I just want to share some words of encouragement.. I know that sometimes we are in this place where we ask if we will ever be successful in life or just remain failures in the eyes of everyone else. I have learnt that everything will eventually come in due time, just hang in there.


Check out this lady I stumbled upon Joanna Quaas....she is the world's oldest gymnast.....You really don't want to know how old she is...


Check out this blog please I beg of you Myne whiteman's especially her yesterday's post on infertility www.romancemeetslife:When-Are-You-Having-Children.... I am trying to get the link but I cannot, I believe if you type this it will be okay. It was posted on the 15th of April..... the comments that follow moved me to tears and laughter.. I must say: I think Nigerians are very insensitive...

STILL GIVEAWAY MONTH

Hi all thank you for the comments and emails and facebook messages love it.. I am still in the giveaway mood so will soon pick the winner very soon...P.S. its random....


I have a bag that I am not sure I like the design and I will like your opinions.. I loved the color and the blend and it looked so nice in my head but when it came to work I think it was a little dull. I am not sure why... but let me allow you guys to be the judge..





So this is the design. I don't know why I am not feeling it, although I have gotten a client who loves this bag. Let me know what you think and do check out this new website.. I love the write up.... www.marketwomanlagos.com.....maybe cos it has my products in them....lol


Tips on starting a new business..

1. It's not as easy as you see it. Now one thinks that when you are into fashion its very glamorous and all, but under that glamor it is hard work... I can't even imagine... I have restricted funds, meaning I have to make sure my products sell... anyways will feed you all as the months go by.

Do take care of yourself and have a lovely weekend.....

And please spread the word...

Ciao

Happy New Month/Special Giveaway Month

Hello everyone I hope we all enjoyed the Easter holidays for me I did. I went to Bonny my home town where there is 24/7 electricity and I had fun. I ate like a pregnant woman all the food I had been craving for a long time. I ate bole and fish (Roasted Plantain and fish).
I can remember the first time I saw them selling bole and groundnut in Lagos, I was confused as to how they could eat things so dry and together for that matter, but in Port Harcourt, Rivers state we have the bole with fish with some salivating sauce. Now I ate this till I could eat no more because I don't know when next I will be in Port Harcourt again.

I also ate what we call Peum Peum: now this is periwinkle cooked still in its shells, mixed with cow tail, and what you would call assorted meat. You suck on the peum peum which is deliciously garnished with a peppery sauce. Lastly I ate fresh fish soup....Mehn I am still salivating right now.


Anyways I am back to Lagos and I am back to my diet. Eating only unripe plantain porridge and beans.. Very boring right, but hey what can man do..lol


Now I had promised you all a while ago that I will post Ularee products which is my brand name on this blog and hope that I get customers, comments and suggestions as well. My first collection is out... I hope you like it.
This earrings where crocheted with yarn, it can come with crochet thread as well.
Design mine, pattern mine. these earrings are very affordable and can be used for whatever occasion. they are very simple and glams up your style as well. And did I forget to say they can be washed/cleaned if need be...nice one right..




This bag is my first collection and I will like to call it the "Toru" bag as the first customer to buy it is called Ibitoru or Toru. They can be made in different colors. I tried to take a professional picture but I don't have a good camera for now and since you can spot my daughter trying to play with the bag you must know that its not easy working and looking after her at the same time. The bag is a mixture of real leather which is white, and Ankara fabric. I love the detailing and the mixture. I love the size as well and the way it seats carefully. This bag can be used for all occasion, in fact this is my to go bag for now.


Please feel free to place your orders and yes free delivery within Lagos.
tmkamson@gmail.com. 08094440178 my contact. let me know what you think.


I got to run as I am working on a product for a client. I promise to get better pictures of my products.

Yes a give away is coming soon. Anybody that can tell me what particular Ankara fabric I used will get this bag in their preferred color and the earrings. Spread the word guys I am waiting.


Ciao.
