Guest Post: Nuy Cho on making your own liquid eyeliner

My friend, Nuy Cho, has a great blog with lots of fun and helpful beauty tips for busy moms. I asked if she would mind sharing an easy makeup how-to with Marvelous Kiddo readers, and this is what she whipped up! I can't wait to try this tip for creating liquid eyeliner myself :)

Thanks, Nuy! XOXO, Leigh

My New Favorite Carry

This is a video I made yesterday to demonstrate a fabulous new-to-me way of wearing the baby in a woven wrap. I love how neat and organized the final look is -- like a cute little package of baby! Another great aspect of this carry is that you can easily adjust the placement of the baby without taking it out of the wrap -- simply untie the ends of the wrap and raise or lower the baby by creating slack or tightening the ends (I find myself utilizing that adjustability aspect for easy breastfeeding on the go!)

Watch, and let me know what you think.

(NOTE: Please excuse the slight cropping of the video on my blog template...I'm a html novice and I couldn't manage to adjust the width of my main column without deleting the right-hand column entirely! To see the best version of the video click through to view it on YouTube and watch full-screen. Meanwhile, let me know if you have any references for a good blog designer, LOL!)
