Being a super power-house woman and home-maker for Thanksgiving to baby showers!



You go girl!
It does not matter girlfriend, if you work on Wall Street or No street, you can always
use your creativity to make every moment special. Gifts of the heart are the most precious
of all.  That being said, I have posted two photos of creative DIY ideas.  The first is a great way
to decorate and make Thanksgiving beautiful and thankful.  In the top photo, silhouette artist Cindi Harwood Rose presents an organic turkey to her family with centerpieces made from craft shop flowers torn apart and glued on napkin rings.  Bowls of bountiful fruit are on the tables with cute
Thanksgiving themed pieces bought at Tuesday Morning nearly a year before the magazine shoot.
That is the best time to get themed items for decorations and to store them to make a smart table.
Side dishes included a tofurky made with ginger, soy, and sesame, fresh green beans with tomatoes and onions simmered in water and oil, pumpkin/carrot soup, sliced oranges with cinnamon and rose water, brown rice with truffle oil, a fresh salad, chopped kale salad with cranberries and pine nuts, tossed with olive oil and apple cider vinegar. . . and more and more!

Diaper cake for baby gift topped with Madam Alexander Doll.  This is not so difficult, it takes a pie pan and rubber bands, ribbons and cute gifts.  Go on line and read tutorials and make your own.  I actually went on a diaper cake rage and made about 6 for different friends little babies, and now, am over it.  However, it was a smashing hit each time.  The great part is giving them little t-shirts, socks, banks, baby books, and things the mom and dad really can use.  Blow this photo up and peek at what is there.  I also put nice scrapbooking decorations all around it and used the ribbons to cover up the rubber bands that held the diapers together.  I think home-made gifts (with good things in them) are always appreciated.  I can tell you, that creating also is a good way to not worry about silly things, and to go into your zin-happy guru safe place of love.  Love to you for your heartfelt gifts to the world.  Love, Silhouette Cindi!



Cucumber eye pack Green Tea and Lipton Tea Baggy eye removers!
Cucumbers are known to reduce baggy eyes, just like the potato is!
So, is the caffine tea bag (wet), green tea or Lipton's tea bags!
Regardless, all these methods require spritzing the eye area first.
Lying down with either the cucumber, potato slice, or wet tea bag on your eyes for 10 minutes.
You will see a difference, right away!
You will also see the red in your whites go away with the caffine in the tea bags!
It will give your eyes energy!
Marilyn Monroe was known to use cucumber eye masks for her lovely sparkling eyes!
Especially with her many hang-overs since we know she loved her bubbly!

Beauty Eye Treatment

Raw potato slices help your puffy eyes.  You need a potato and a knife!
Slice 6 very thin potato slices.
Spritz the eye area with purified water.
Lying down, place the slices on your lids and bags.
Leave this for at least 10 minutes for best results!
 Here is a photo after a potato treatment (now with make-up) of me, over 50 years old.
My glowing skin is from Bentonite clay masks, which I will tell you about later!
A good night's sleep always helps too.
Good night, from your Silhouette Guru, lover of the light.

Wedding Silhouette Artist "I Do!"




Weddings can be wonderful, white like snow, or pure like a sacred heart.
They can also be stressful.
Most people are on a budget.
One of the most reasonable and unique ideas is to have a REAL silhouette artist at your wedding.
Cindi Harwood Rose, is that rare find! She does the lost heirloom art of cutting portraits from
thin paper in miniature. At weddings she often does two to them, one for each guest and one
for the guest book. We had the pleasure in New York City to have Cindi at our wedding, after
we watched her do silhouettes in Austin, Texas! She is so detailed, and spot-on! Plus,
she made us all feel special at the same time, keeping a perky, nice personality.
Some how she did all 150 of our guests in the 4 hour time we hired her.
For fun, we made other cute silhouette logos-- on mugs, and swoozies. I was able
to hire her from her SilhouettesbyCindiFacebook. It is a great idea. Say, "I do",
say "yes", and say, "here comes the bride, groom, and all the happy guests!"

Authentic silhouette artists are an extinct breed! Cindi Harwood is revising the art!






Silhouete artist Cindi Rose happened upon the art of silhouette cutting freehand, while drawing portraits for a Disney art company. She saw a unique hand-profile cutting artist and did not think his skills were as expert as they could be. The teen took to his surgical scissors and tiny, thin, paper and gave it a try. The park manager was so impressed, teen-aged Cindi was offered the spot as the "official silhouette artist!" At that time, nearly 40 years ago, there were only 13 silhouette artists known in the world. Today, there are 38 to 58 of which Cindi Harwood Rose is recognized as the leading and best silhouette artist. Her name is featured in The Guild of Papercutters and Wikipedia, and she holds the world-record in speed. The history of silhouettes (last example which is not Cindi's work) comes from the Victorian era. Harwood Rose is popular at business conventions, holiday parties, children's stores, schools, and silhouette fund-raisers and especially at weddings. She works in New York City, Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, and Aspen. Cindi often works around the USA for Presidential homes and to give speeches on the history of silhouette art. Her work in speed and accuracy is unmatched. She also donates her time to children's hospitals to make the children feel happy, and to give the family a gift. For more information see http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com of the

Silhouette Artist Cindi Rose is an elegant touch to a New York wedding. She is the only hand-cut paper silhouette artist that was a New York City resident. Recently, she had the pleasure of working a 6 hour wedding in the mid-town area of New York where she did 40 silhouette hand-cut profiles per hour, the fastest record for a detailed hand-cut miniature profile. Guests were entertained and delghted. The bride, Carly Jacobson, searched America to find an artist who could do the double silhouettes that Cindi Rose mastered when she was a teen doing silhouettes at both Disneyland and Disneyworld. Currently she lives in Houston and New York, and likes to work the Houston, Austin, Dallas areas as well as LA, Denver, and Aspen, where she has family. Her work is detailed and her personality is upbeat. On GigMasters she has the most reviews of any East Coast silhouette artist, and many GigMasters rewards. She is the only portrait silhouette artist mentioned on Wikipedia and the featured premier silhoeutte artist on the international Guild of Papercutters. Do you want to hire a silhoeutte artist for your wedding, or even two silhouette artists for a large wedding? Contact CindiSilhouettes@gmail.com http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com/

The History of Silhouette Artists with talents of Physiognomy

The History of Silhouette Artists and Art, Silhouette Artist Gur

Cinderella (Aschenputtel) - Lotte Reiniger (1922) from http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com




The art
 The history of animation can be traced to the silhouettes of Lotte Reiniger. 
The shadow can show mood, and often expresses more than a figure with
details. Walt Disney was especially fond of the silhouettes by Reiniger. She
would sit for hours, weeks, days, years to make a cartoon, moving her paper
cuttings and taking a photo of them.  Much of the world thinks that Lotte
Reiniger invented movie cartoons.  http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com

Silhouette artworks in cinema and cartoons!

Lotte Reiniger's silhouette cut-outs are astounding and 

extraordinary.  The silhouette theme began in Turkish

shadow puppets, with a religious undertone, using the 

soul as the theme of a shadow.  Walt Disney was inspired

to make his first cartoons from silhouette artist Lotte Reiniger.

How to make your own wedding silhouettes for your theme!

Having a wedding? 
Hire a professional silhouette artist or make your own DIY Premier American silhouette artist, Cindi Rose, does lovely silhouettes of guests at weddings! Silhouettes are beautiful for your wedding invitations and can be done in any color!
You can look on the web, and find a silhouette artist to make your invitation. It is a fun touch if you hire one to entertain at the wedding event.  Look at the Guild of Papercutters to see the featured silhouette artist, or where one lives in your area.  Silhouette artists will travel if you book them.  They need not live near you.  Professional silhouette artist Cindi Harwood Rose will even travel to other countries!
 To make your own wedding silhouettes, take profile photos of one another, or have them made.  Find the color paper you like.  Cut the photo out, carefully.  Draw what you cut out as a stencil on the colored paper you selected.  Use nice barber scissors or embroidery scissors to cut out the shapes.  Mount them, and enjoy!
Authentic silhouette artists in the 20th century normally worked in amusement parks, or World Fairs. Often, even on the streets of Paris. They all can draw portraits, and like history, they learned that cutting a profile of a person, from head to toe, sideways in profile, often can get a quicker, and more satisfying result. Don't be fooled, when done correctly, this art is the hardest fine art to master. That is why we rarely see a real silhouette artist, who does not sketch the work first, use a projector, or light to trace a shadow. The artist can literally draw with scissors. Check out Wikipedia's great article on silhouette artists! Althoug check Peggy McClard antiques to get a wonderful history, there is one on SilhouettesbyCindi.com where art historian of silhouettes and Cindi Harwood Rose write an interesting history of silhouette art and history of silhouette artists together. Or, you can get a professional silhouette artist to do one for you, such as the ones I did below. They vary in price to do full-length silhouettes, and are not that expensive.  It is worth it to have the signed original.  You may have a great investment for the future, with the real silhouette artist's signature.  However, the DIY is something to be proud of too, and in that case, sign your own work, and invest in your marriage!

Ten ways to gain friends

1. Think of others, not yourself, ask how they are, and don't spend too much time talking about yourself.

2. Never upstage your friends, they may be jealous of you. Always be authentic, who wants fake friends anyway.

3. Write real thank-you notes for anything that another may have done.  If the note is  home-made it is better, you can buy cute scrapbook items and personalize the note!

4. Be there when people need you.  If the friend is sick, bring food and ask what they eat, or offer to run errands for them.  Pitch in on their special occasions. At the least, send an e-mail, you are thinking of them.

5. Never let them borrow anything.  That creates un-real boundaries, and they will fill that they need to use you.  Explain that it is a rule of yours not to borrow (except for the wedding by tradition or from a family member) as you may ruin it or they may not return it. If you visit them, bring a gift, help buy gas, groceries, or take the to dinner.  Try not to over-stay your welcome, unless you are the "baby-sitter".  In that case, are they using you?

6. Do "you validaton" think of their best qualities and compliment them for them.  Do this to yourself, too. 

7. Invite them out for lunch or coffee, or better yet, a meal at your home.

8. Don't tell their secrets to anyone, be careful about telling your secrets to them.

9. Stay upbeat but listen and emphasize with their journey.  Often a good friend needs a "bitch body buddy" someone to complain to.  If they do too much of that, you may want to rethink them, are they addicted to distress? What can fix them?  Offer prayer and spirituality.

10. If they hurt your feelings explain in an honest way that you like them, but not the way it appeared that they acted, that it made you feel awkward, and hurt your feelings.

 

A true friend is a jewel, and will sparkle when it is clean.

The silhouette artwork is wonderful on invitatons and logos.
The best works are done by silhouette artists which you can google, on see on Bing, Yahoo, AOL, or working at events. The computer and wall traced silhouettes are flat, and do not show personality.   You can contact the silhouette artists and have them do invitations, but don't use the simple ones that do them by computer as they will look trite and will be out-of-proportion.  It is best for a skilled former Disney silhouette artist to hand-cut your profile.  Many of the silhouette artists will ship  directly to you.  I work by events, and if hired to do a silhouette for a wedding, event, Bat Mitzvah, business convention store fashion event, Wedding silhouette artist Cindi Harwood Rose can to send you logo silhouettes of the bride and groom to use for your invitations.  Just go to silhouettesbycindi.com  If I am not available, I can tell you which woman will do a great job for you.  We even work in the UK and Dubai!

Wedding Silhouette Artist, Silhouette Artist for your Wedding!

Cindi Rose is the best silhouette artist for all East Coast and New York City Weddings. Not only is she a former Disney silhouette artist (and that is always the best ones to hire) she is the fastest silhouette artist in history. At your wedding, she can do couples together where she cuts a profile into another profile. Her record when she is cutting and mounting her own detailed artworks is 30 people per hour, which is twice as fast as any other East Coast silhouettest for weddings or store events. In silhouette artwork, like surgery, the faster artists have the most graceful cuts. If you need more silhouettes done at your 4 hour wedding, she reccomends you hire Kathryn and Cindi Silhouette Sisters. Together they can do 60 profiles per hour, of full detail. Kathryn and Cindi often work many silhouette jobs together. Please check out their popular blog, Kathryn and Cindi Silhouettes. They are popular in New York City, Rhode Island, Maine, Washington DC, and everywhere. You can see the intricate works they do. Kathryn also designs the great cake toppers as shown in these pictures and pendants. Both Cindi and Kathryn learned how to interact with customers or guests by working at Disney theme parks, and take that gracious personality with them to all wedding and business gatherings.

Silhouettes by Cindi - Silhouettes ARTIST IN New York City NY



Silhouette artist, Cindi Harwood Rose is popular in the New York fashion and wedding world. Her work is art deco, yet edgy, in speed and uniqueness. She can be compared to her contemporary, New York trendy silhouette award-winning illustrator and logo maker, Carter Cutera. Both are pushing the silhouette envelope to incorporate paint and words of wisdom. http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com

Princess Erica Rose on Ellen degeneres! SO FUNNY!

http://www.silhouettesbycindi.com

What is a silhouette guru who teaches the art of life, while mastering the profile? For me, it is living in thanks for natural gifts that have been given to me and finding the peace to embrace them and share them with others as a way of life.  These silhouettes I created show the lotus flower and families and friends, relaxing with their minds focused on the "still, small, voice" of knowing. 


 Every gift we are given, can also be a road block, thus we have to be creative and figure out, how can I use this ability or disability, to the betterment of the world?  For me, being born an artist, makes me one bit "spacey, stubborn, free-spirited, grounded, open-minded, giving, silent, content, curious, positive, contemplative, intuitive".  To master life, you must be a yoga of good intention. 
Each feature can be something that can make life's walk or journey complicated, or simple.  I stay focused on the beauty of life.  It can be how a leaf flutters, or a child gives love, the ripple of a sea shell, thrown back into the ocean.  I make sure to get at least "10" goals done per day.  This includes at least some good deeds, impacting another person's life, and not telling anyone that I did something nice.  It is for karma, or my heart to sing.  For a person who is ultra organized and obsessive, such as the surgeon (whom I did marry), they can use this trait in the operating room.  It is a disability when they over think something we have no control over, such as the weather!  If you are born with a physical self that others may think not normal, you can show a beautiful heart, and the lesson will be for others, to not judge.  We all have a skin, we each have energy to "hand-out" when we are in public.  It is best to show kindness no matter what, and to remember, nothing is personal, and when it appears to be, just bless the others and wish them the best.  Silhouette sonnets sung simply in peace and prayer.  Love, Cindi, your silhouette guru and "The silhouette Lady."
YOUR SEXY BODY'S SILHOUETTE!
Waist training has been the rage, since the days of the silhouette artist's heyday which began in the 1600's and then boomed in the late 1700's to 1800's.  The women had such small waists due to corsets.
Even stars like Jayne Mansfield, and Marilyn Monroe wore corsets in the 1950's.  Today, reality stars and internet (sometimes porn) stars weave a small waist by wearing a corset!  Kym Kardashian and even Caitlyn have sworn that this trims slim greatness.  Be sure to get one with "bones of metal" to trim your mid-section.  You can sleep in this and wear it almost all day.  I tried it for a few weeks, and thought I saw a difference.  I know I will try it again.  When buying one, measure your waist, and go for a size 3 to 4 inches smaller.

For a tight and high bun--- just squeeze those muscles in your "rear" as tight as you can all day long.  You will be shocked that it will rise like bread with yeast.  Squats help too, but never have your knees in front of your torso.  This is a complicated item to remember, so if you have a gym, use the machine that you lay down on, and push your legs out against a weight, many times a day.

Cindi Harwood was the first female body builder featured in Muscle and Fitness Magazine world-wide and was a former TV exercise hostess.  She has modeled in over 200 health magazines.  Now over 50 years young, she still have a similar body.  Your muscles have memory, so if you start young, and don't drink too much alcohol and eat too much white flour and sweets, you can keep your shape a long time.  Always remembering to do shape-forming exercise, best found with small weights and yoga style stretches.

Here are photos of Cindi Harwood, now Cindi Harwood Rose, from her 20's, then at 39, and after 50.  All showing that a healthy lifestyle can help you "beat the clock."
