- About Me:
- I'm an African American business woman, learning, growing, and developing structurally for myself as well as my business. I've been online for about 4 year and 7 months, selling bridal gowns, evening gowns and dresses. This year I decided to come up with a unique concept for brides and grooms to be able to shop on my site for more than just wedding supplies with a mega shopping center, over 300 stores to choose from including hotels and travel.
The fact is that I just wanted to please everybody and make things a little easier for those who like to shop at there favorite places online even when the stores are closed we are always open.
My goal for myself would be to train others sistas on how to develop and market their own businesses to operate and become successful in the industry that they have chosen. Having your own business is never easy, but it can be done with a little patience and lots of prayer.
At this moment, I am attending the University of Phoenix in Arizona. Applynig for my Associate's degree in the Art of Business Management to enhance what I have already learned on my own with no experience. It's been a tough road for me but God has always come through and I will always continue to grow and prosper in his name.

Have A Merry Christmas and A Wonderful New Year!
To all my friends I have met here at BBWO, it has been a pleasure meeting all of you and I wish you all and your families a very Merry Christmas and A Happy New year.

Great Hair Days in Ancient Egypt by Ilene Springer
There was probably no better time for hair than in ancient Egypt. You could dye it, cut it, braid it, shave it, weave charms into it—and then there were the wigs—of countless designs. The ancient Egyptians-- both men and women--were known for hating facial and body hair and used all kinds of shaving implements to get rid of it. But hair on the head? They loved it—and had so many ways of showing it.

Ancient Egyptian Beauty Secrets.....Did you know series 1
Cats Eyes and Eye Make Up....!
The ornamented eye is ubiquitous in ancient Egyptian art. Hardly a portrait exists without an impeccably dark, outlined eye. Disembodied decorated eyes (the Eye of Horus) serve as amulets. Should an artist wish to indicate that a cow, for instance, is no mere bovine but a divinity in disguise, this too is indicated, not by a halo, but via eye makeup. And not just any eye makeup. There is a very specific, consistent style that even today has become a virtual shorth… Continue

Ms.Q said… - Hello Ardella,
It sounds like you have been quite busy. I am wishing blessings for you and your business because first without God none of this would be possible and second without our customers we wouldn't have a business. I am hoping that I can be just as busy soon. The business is not quite off the ground yet. I do have some customers that my mom brought to me and I am so grateful. I am still working on my online store and a catalog as well as price list. I don't think I had a clue before starting this venture that it would be this much work involved. To me the little details that need to be put together seem to be taking me the longest to complete. I have had two product testers trying out the products and I had to revamp my formulations for a couple of my products and I'm in the midst of trying out a new base product for my Body Mist Sprays because I am not happy with them although the customers like them. So far the bath bombs are a big hit! I only want to put out the very best products because at the end of the day my name is on every product I sell. I haven't forgotten that you wanted to try the Body Mist Sprays and I am close to getting the formula where I want it to be. I will let you know when I've completed my product research, testing, and development and when they are ready. It was good hearing from you so please don't be a stranger and I will be contacting you. God Bless You!

- Hello Ardella,
Thank you so much for stopping by my page and commenting on my products. Yes I do make my own skincare products and I've been doing this for a few months now. I haven't sold any of them yet outside of family and friends but I am in the process of building an online store and once its completed I will be posting to let everyone know that it is open. I am not in any stores yet but I hope to be soon. Green Apple Martini's are definitely a good drink...lol! I also need to build enough inventory in order to meet supply and demand so until then I'm just making the products and storing them. They are awesome products that I am very proud of and I can't wait to share with the world. If you were referring to the Body Mist Sprays they sell for $ 8.00 and everyone seems to like the Green Apple Martini the best so far. I will definitely let you know when the store online is open. Thanks again. Take Care.
