Black Friday Gift Ideas!!!


How was everyone's Thanksgiving???  Ours was great!! It turned into an alien-themed one...we got on the topic of alien's at dinner and then ended up watching a movie that featured, well, you guessed it: aliens!  It makes me wonder if they're really out there.  As Criss Angel would say..."Do you believe?"

Anyways....moving on....


Happy Black Friday!!  Here are some really great gift ideas if you have a musician in your family or if you want to just treat yourself! If you like anything please contact me and I'll let you know where to get the item.

VIOLIN:

There's no way this clock wouldn't ALWAYS spark a conversation if it were hung in your house.  I think it's very clever and cute!

The famous "violin girl" logo

My students are required to bring a notebook to lessons.  This would be perfect for them! It's so beautiful and classy. 

This water bottle would make a great stocking stuffer.

flippidy floppidys!

2014 Calender. I looove musical artwork...(see previous blog post!).  

PIANO:




"Piano Princess" makes me want to play piano only so I can call myself that!! 
I'm starting to think many musicians are into cats because there are SO many music/cat items.  I'm not the only violin/cat feen!!!! 

Christmas ornament.

I thought this clock was very modern looking and cool. It would look nice in a bedroom.

I love rainbow stuff.  These types of rainbow themed tees are available for many other instruments. 

Another kitty/music item!! This would be a good gift for a younger musician :)

GUITAR:
Mousepad.

I-phone case.  

**Available for every instrument**.  I especially liked the guitar one because it was double G's.

Love this!!!! 

Another cute rainbow tee :)
Magnet.  Another stocking stuffer!
Can't forget about your four-legged friend!!

This bag is a little pricey but I had to include it because it's so pretty!

TRUMPET:
I thought this clock was colorful and fun!

A lot of "band moms" are so involved with helping the school band out so I thought this was cute for those mom's out there. (Available for other instruments as well.)

Super cute earrings.

DRUMS:
Love this quote!! Go drummers!!!

This is actually a pillow case!!!!!!! Pretty cool isn't it??


Christmas ornament.  Thought it was super clever.  

Drumset clock!  

This is perfect for a Christmas present bc it reminds me of the Little Drummer Boy song.


another fun rainbow tee!


CLARINET:



*The "I-" theme is available for all instruments*



If I played the clarinet I'd totally buy these.
I thought this was funny and cute!

LOVED this.  Some of these expressions are so clever!!

Christmas ornament.  Appropriate for any treble clef instrument (not just the clarinet.)

Another kitty/music themed item I found!!

BASSOON:
LOVED this clock!!! And of course the cute expression.


Thought this mug was very pretty.



Definitely not true...but still cute lol
VIOLA:
Violists don't get enough credit so I really liked this quote...although it is available for every instrument.

Thought this shirt was unique.
The cut of this tee is really nice.
This is listed as a "viola" but could pass as a violin as well.  
Thought this was very pretty and cute!
CELLO:

Such a pretty mug!!
Loved loved loved this colorful sweatshirt!
hahaha.
Cute coaster.  The colors are gorgiouso!
simple but super cute magnet.



Ok well I'm exhausted...contemplating whether going back to sleep or staying awake!! Remember, if you like anything I listed, just hit me up (in comments section, facebook, google plus, etc.) and I'll let you know the details of the item!!

Til next time,

Get your hair out of your face!!!

Short and sweet post today! 

This is a simple but necessary point I need to make.  I guess this is more so directed towards girls, but it can definitely be applicable to guys as well.  When you perform, you need to make sure your hair is out of your face.  When you are on stage, you are most likely exposing the profile of your face.  If your hair isn't pulled back, all people would see is your nose! LoL. 







What looks better between these two pictures?    






Other good examples:
