I hope that the year is off to a good start for everyone -- 2009 was a great year, but I honestly believe that 2010 will be even better!
Thanks again to all my avid supporters: my family, friends, clients, all my social networking friends/family and last but not least my trusted vendors for all your support, encouragement, referrals, sponsorships and more. I could not do it without you!
In trying to decide which route to go with my second blog of the year, I concluded that a whimsical post with some neat finds would be a welcoming change after Wednesday's holiday post. So, here goes… ENJOY!
1. Need an umbrella or parasol for your event? Did you know that if you did not want to purchase, they are available for rent? You must be asking what the difference is between the two – right?
Well, according to Wiki: Umbrella is another synonym for the term parasol, which was first used as a protection against the scorching heat of the sun, "para" meaning stop or shield and "sol" meaning sun. The word "umbrella" has evolved from the Latin "umbella" (and "umbel" is a flat-topped rounded flower) or "umbra," meaning "shaded."
In addition, in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, and India they were used to protect important people from the sun. They were often large and held by bearers, and they served as marks of honor and authority for the wearer (Encyclopedia Britannica).
So the next time you need one for any event -- weddings, decor, engagement pictures, fashion and product shoots, props, or just love umbrellas, visit Bella Umbrella.
2. You can pair your umbrella/parasol with a nice clutch from Beegee Bags.
