You couldn't post a neat address on your Web site or blog telling people where to go on Facebook to friend you. That’s all changed now. Now you can claim your distinct or “vanity” URL for your Facebook profile in one of these formats: • http://profile.to/AnyNameYouChoose/ • www.profile.to/AnyNameYouChoose • http://apps.facebook.com/profiles/AnyNa…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMThttp://www.makeminepink.com/articles/archives/?which=255Gail Friend's original, handmade designs reflect the inspiration she finds in nature, whether it be from oceans, beaches, or enchanting gardens.

You have to market it to get followers and subscribers. It’s not easy, but there are some tools that can help. Free: Promote it on Facebook, MySpace and Twitter sites by adding links to your posts. In some cases, you can do this automatically from your blog, but often these don’t provide the same visibility options as posting it manually, which allows you to comment. On Facebook, add your blog to NetworkedBlogs.com and invite…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMThttp://www.makeminepink.com/articles/archives/?which=250In the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator personality test, I score as an ENFP, and my husband is an INTJ. In others words, we’re complete opposites, proving that opposites do indeed attract (and disagree!). What’s more, I am at almost the 100 percent level on the “feeling” end of the “feeling-thinking” continuum, an argument he likes to pull out when we are “discussing” the costs vs. benefits of a purchase.   “You aren’t log…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMThttp://www.makeminepink.com/articles/archives/?which=248Cindy Houot of Angel Heart Designs creates ceramics that speak from her heart to ours.

Each of Cindy's creations touches our hearts in a meaningful way, whether it's with a few lovely words of encouragement, a piece with a deeper messag…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMThttp://www.makeminepink.com/articles/archives/?which=246 You may remember the movie staring Kevin Costner, Field of Dreams, in which he builds a baseball field in the middle of a corn field because the ghosts of old players tell him, “If you build it, they will come.”  That idea worked well for a Hollywood movie, but it doesn’t work in business. Repeatedly I encounter start-up owners who have spent every penny they have on developing their product or a Web site and then have nothing left besides their dreams on which to…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMThttp://www.makeminepink.com/articles/archives/?which=245Below you'll find the beautiful May Day Jars that were created by our Make Mine Pink Members. Click HERE to vote for your favorite. In the early days of the British Isles, May Day was celebrated with the lighting of massive fires to welcome in the new light.  The fires brought purity and luck to the people who breathed in the smoke.  This was a chance to wash off the dark days behind and look forward to the bright days ahead. When the Romans took over the British Isles, a fiv…Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:37:32 GMT
