Friday Finds, Musical Style: Rocky Horror Picture Show

Rocky Horror Picture ShowI have been a GLEEk since last year and a Rocky Horror Picture Show fan for over 20 years, so you can imagine my excitement for last Tuesday's Glee episode. Tell me I'm not alone!

I still haven't made it to a Rocky Horror film screening and gotten to throw toast at anyone, but my parents and I time warped to the 2000 Broadway Revival in New York City. The show was an absolute blast - we had front row seats and the Narrator, played by Dick Cavett, even pulled me on stage to dance with him. It's no wonder the musical is a cult classic.

The quantity of Rocky Horror items available on Etsy may be low, but the quality is astounding. Time is fleeting, so take a peek at these handmade creations closely.

Makeup Giveaway: All Natural Mineral Cosmetics by Madison Street Beauty

EDIT: Giveaway is officially closed. Congratulations to Rita Szlovencsák for submitting the randomly chosen 57th entry. Perhaps it's the hot weather and the drought in Delaware, but I have been daydreaming about being a mermaid. That's why I gleamed to discover the Etsy Blog's Mermaid Makeup Tutorial when looking through the list of articles where my new giveaway sponsor's products have shimmered. Madison Street Beauty has dozens of magnificent eye shadow colors that could enhance the sexy siren in any creature. One lucky winner will even get to choose five full size eye shadows, as well as a foundation, a setting powder and a blush or bronzer sample for free. Amethyst, an opaque vegan eyeshadow of medium purple, would be my first pick, fins down. Look at those sparkles! If choosing only five colors is too difficult, why not try some natural samples first? The owners, Bridget and Rhys, are currently celebrating their one year Etsyversary and offering an astonish...

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over. Congratulations to Susana Silva for submitting the randomly-chosen 392nd entry. Normal people go to the beach in the summer, but I prefer autumn when it's more peaceful. The weather may be chilly, but that's why scarves come in handy!
