Where is it found in highest concentrations (excluding metabolic processes)?
Is it found in dark red foods, such as dark red apple skins, red wines, or specifically, HIBISCUS?
Plus any ideas about the benefits or effects?
Anyone know a good source of pyruvate? details...?
Pyruvate is available in generic formulations from numerous manufacturers. Branded products include Pyruvate Burn (Gen), Pyruvate Fuel (Twinlab), Pyruvate 1000 (Pinnacle), Diet Pyruvate (Source Naturals).Entry C00022 Compound
Name Pyruvate;
Pyruvic acid;
2-Oxopropanoate;
2-Oxopropanoic acid;
Pyroracemic acid
Formula C3H4O3
Mass 88.016
Nutritional supplements are important for at least two simple reasons. The first is that many of us rely overly too much on fast foods and highly processed foods. And the second rationale for nutritional supplements is that evidence continues to mount that many of the nutrients and health promoting substances that we might take to achieve optimum health levels cannot be obtained through normal diet alone.
Reply:Pyruvate, a salt form of pyruvic acid, is available in small amounts from some vegetables and fruits, dark beers and red wine. It is a by product of sugar metabolism, so the human body produces all it needs, unless there is some metabolic anomoly.
Reply:Pyruvate is the result of metabolism of glucose known as glycolysis. The only known source of pyruvate is metabolism in cells. There are no other ways of getting pyruvate other than from metabolic processes. You can isolate it in the lab but if you want to obtain it any other way other than by means of glycolysis it is insufficient. I am don't know if certain foods are more rich in pyruvate than other foods. I would think that foods or meats with higher concentrations of glucose also give way to higher concentrations of pyruvate.

Beach and period?
ok.... i started my period today (just my luck) and anyway i was going to go to the beach tomorrow. i wear tampons but i am still afraid of the blood and shark thing. where we go.... there are lots of "small" sharks -mostly hammerhead... if that makes a difference- but.... i am thinking of not going now :( i am terrified of the idea of sharks. also i would probably be at the beach for about 8hrs. and when i first start my period it tends to be some what heavy. there is no bathroom where we go (we have to go in the water) so i am afraid of that issue of if i need to change my tampon. i would use supers but i have never used those before and i know they have a thing with TSS and idk. what should i do? i would absolutely hate to leak at the beach :(
oh and my bathing suit is black with white hibiscus flowers on it so thats good i guess.
Beach and period?
Hmm, tough one. I would say if the bleeding isn't heavy than it's probably ok to go in the water, just not too far out. If your period is already heavy then maybe it's something you should think twice about. As far as I know it's never been proven that a women menstruating in the water will attract a shark but I guess you just can't be too careful. Oh and btw hammerhead sharks are not small!! Yikes!!
Reply:i have a really good answer! don't go to the beach! or just stay out of the water.
Reply:u should be fine. if it makes u feel better, dont go in deeper than mid chest. i doubt u will get n e stains, but have fresh tampons. dont worry about tss, jus change the tampon wen u can. have fun!
Reply:Tampax/Kotex/OB/Playtex super plus absorbency tampons.
Reply:hey
Nothing to worry about. You can wear your tampon for tomorrow but make sure that you are in the water. What will happen is that your periods will stop for the duration of time you are close contact with water.
Don't worry about sharks just make sure you are close by to the shore.
Have a good day at the beach : )

Iguana not growing?
I have two iguanas, one, the female, is only two and a half feet long and shes 3 years old. Why is she so small? I give her a diet of calcium sprinkled collard greens, mustard greens, yellow squash and the occassional hibiscus. The male is 1'9 and he isn't growin much either. They have their proper lizard heat bulb and a uvb light and a huge cage plus a shallow bowl thats big enough to get in a good soak. Their green iguanas and Im starting to get concerned that their so small, is it just because they havent hit their growth spurt yet? Ive taken them to a vet and they completely ignored the growth question and just started rounding up a surgrey cost because the female had a small bump on her leg, which we took her two a new vet and a few daily doses of medication cured it, obviously they didn't know what they were doing. Am I just having motherly worries or is this something I should really be concerned about?
Iguana not growing?
Just because iguanas can get huge doesn't mean all will, it sounds like they are healthy and well cared for, don't worry. Also iguanas grow slowly as they get older
Reply:maybe you haven't notice unless you have measured her, if so she just different not all iguana including animals of all kind grow at the same time they just different kinda like when you have a friend and he the same age as you, what the chance of him being the same height as you
but if this didn't help you i hope someone else give you a better answer or go to a vet or find a vet that specialize in reptiles on the internet and see if they provide their email and ask them
I've don this before checking for a email of a vet online
Reply:make sure you give your iguana plenty of fruit and veggie variety,
like carrots shredded, kale, squash like you give them now and lots of other healthy fruits. I had one and my vet said that as long as he was a good green color and active he was OK. good luck. also check with your local pet store and see if there is anything else you can give to them.

i like the second one...........................
it be really cute on your ankle..........
Reply:i like the 1st one. and i would put it where the model is wearing it. good luck!
Reply:number 3. I'm sleeved and 70% of my body.
i used to do tat's in seattle.
put in on your shoulder on your back
Reply:second or third
Reply:I like the 2nd one. You should put it on the back of your shoulder or on your lower waist
Reply:The third one.
Reply:I don't particularly care for any of them, but my favorite is the second one.
Keep in mind that, if you have to second guess yourself about which design to get, it is highly likely that you won't like it in the future. Make sure you are picking the right one.
Reply:I like 2, the pink hibiscus flower. It depends if this is your first or not. If it is, maybe your back shoulder, or above your ankle. Ask your tattoo artist, they might be able to help with placement and positioning it to look good on you.
Reply:number two on the ankle (small)
Reply:neither they're tacky!
Reply:the third and i would get it on my hip
Reply:1. Lower back on the left or right-hand side. It'd be cute for the picture to peek out whenever you jeans slide down a little.
2. I don't like this one.
3. This would be cute low on the front of your body, right above where your pantyline line would be if you're wearing low risers... I hope that made sense!
Reply:I like the flower on the third one, but I would probably ask the artist to add some leaves instead of the green fill. (But that's just me). Maybe you could put it on your shoulder blade, hip, or foot?
Reply:I like the 2nd one the best but id be mad if that was my tattoo and someone was going to get the same one. so id show that to your artist and see if they can change it up a little. id get it either on your hip or smaller on the top of ur foot
Reply:remember one day you will have kids and strech marks through tattooes are erally bad so not on the front hip. I would say somewhere where you wont gain wait in the future. Dont use one of those designs, make your own. this is something that is on your skin for life so make sure you love it.
Reply:i like either #1 or #2 only because i'm not a big fairy person and i like flowers a lot better. but its honestly up to you, and which one you would like better on your body.
the foot is always a nice place to put a tattoo. but it just depends on what you get, how big you get it, and where you want to put it. but another good place could be on your sholderblade.
i hope this helped! :)
Reply:I like the third one the most becuase I think as you get older(80s and 90s) the faerie will seem a little more childish. The second flower is very pretty and it seems like a more timeless flower. I would put it on the inside of your ancle or your should put it on a shoulder blade. You may consider a place that would be easy to cover up for job interviews or if you dislike it later on.

Anyone have these recipes please?
hya.as you may already know i have just returned from a wonderfull fortnights stay in sharm el sheik (sierra/savoy hotel ) would highly reccomend- along with all the cultural trips fantastic-can,t wait to return) at breakfast we were served the most delicous of pancakes accompanied by chocolate/caramel sauce with a variety of coconut or raison toppings...does anyone have the recipe please.(sauces also if possible).also how do i buy/make the very refreshing hibiscus cordial/.juice drink..can only find the rosehip-hibiscus mixture teabags here and its not the same..thanks.....rose
Anyone have these recipes please?
Hello Rose,
First of all i am glad u had such a wonderful time and i hope u do come and visit Egypt and Sharm again.
I am quite sure that the pancakes u were served were different from the ones u r used to coz they serve a type of crepe and not pancake in most hotels in Sharm.
Here is my recipe to make good home made crepes:
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons of melted butter or a 1/4 of a cup of oil
1/4 tea spoon salt
1 egg
(i add 1 teaspoon of sugar if i am going to use them for sweet crepes) optional.
You don't need a special pan to make crepes, a small nonstick pan will work just fine. Whisk everything in a bowl until smooth. The batter will be watery.
Heat up a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Using a ladle pour the batter right in the middle of the pan till u get the size u want. You have to coat the pan first with some butter (a very light coat though). In a few seconds the sides will turn golden and start turning upwards from the pan and all the watery batter would have cooked from yr side up. Flip it to the other side and leave in for a few more seconds then serve.
If it is still not the ones u want check out this site it has all the pancake recipes u could want http://www.bbonline.com/recipe/pancakes....
As for the sauces, sorry i use ready made chocolate or caramel sauce. i even add some bananas and fold the crepe in half or quarter and pour the chocolate syrup onto it.
Now, the hibiscus drink, the teabags mixture will never taste the same, u have to buy them from supermarkets or shops selling them. then u take a cup of hibiscus mixture (they look like a dried dark red roses) and put them in 1 liter of cold water for i day, (preferable, coz they also help to lower the blood pressure this way). There is a quicker way, if u put them in hot water for an hour then put them in the fridge and just strain them and drink straight away.
Hope i helped.
edit: i forgot to tell u to add sugar according to yr liking to the strained hibiscus drink.

Safe tea's during first trimester?
Im really confused regarding safe non-caffinated teas. I figured herbal teas would be best since they are caffeine free so I started reading some sites and some people say some teas are safe but other say differently.
I really enjoy drinking Lipton Herbal Lemon tea. It contains hibiscus, rose hips, orange peel, roasted chicory root, lemon grass and citric acid.
Can anyone help me to figure out if this would be safe to drink? I am 8 weeks and 3 days.
Safe tea's during first trimester?
You should not have hibiscus.
Which teas are not safe?
Many of the herbs used for teas, when taken in large or medicinal amounts, can potentially stimulate the uterus and induce miscarriage. These include anise, catnip, chamomile, comfrey, ephedra (called ma huang in traditional Chinese medicine), European mistletoe, hibiscus, horehound, Labrador, lemongrass, licorice root, mugwort, pennyroyal, raspberry leaf, rosemary, sage, sassafras, stinging nettle leaf, vetiver, and yarrow.
Although some midwives use raspberry leaf (also known as red raspberry leaf) to aid delivery, its effectiveness hasn't been proven. In any case, it should be used only near term and under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Avoid the rest of the herbs in this list during pregnancy and lactation.
Note: You can still eat food that contains herbs like rosemary and sage, because the amounts used in food are generally much smaller than those used in tea — and not as potent (the brewing process for making tea concentrates the chemicals of the herbs).
Among other reasons to avoid certain herbs used in teas:
? Coca (also known as mate de coca) contains small amounts of cocaine.
? Comfrey, kava root, skullcap, valerian, and woodruff may damage your liver.
? Lobelia contains nicotine.
? Mate (or yerba mate) can contain as much caffeine as coffee.
None of these herbs should be taken while you're pregnant or nursing.
Reply:Most teas are unsafe if you drink too much of them, but stay away from teas with any of these herbs : anise, catnip, chamomile, comfrey, ephedra (me huang), hibiscus, horehound, lemon grass, licorice root, mugwort, rosemary, sage, sassafras, even red raspberry leaf. Red raspberry leaf is commonly used by midwives to stimulate the uterus and can therefore induce a miscarriage.
Reply:There are a few companies like Traditional Medicinals that have a tea called 'Pregnancy Tea'. It's mostly red raspberry leaf- with strengthens the uterus. I've been drinking peppermint tea, which is very good for helping the digestion. The lipton tea that you are drinking sounds fine. And even the occasional cup of caffeine is totally fine- I drank some black tea this morning- because I am SO tired- I'm 8 weeks pregnant also! Congrats on your pregnancy:)
Reply:i know how u feel, 10 weeks tomorrow and i feel like i cant eat or drink anything!! I would say have it, dont think it can harm anything, im not a bad mum but they didnt have any of this stuff around a hundred years and people didnt come out with loads of disabilities! Im sure you can though on a serious note! if it dont have a warning on the back of the pack you should be fine! x
Reply:There's a brand called "Celestial Seasonings", they are caffeine free and come in all flavors ( I suggest the red vanilla, it's delicious!!). You can find them in any grocery store.
Reply:I love lipton. It sounds like it should be safe, but I've never been pregnant, so I'd call your geinacologyst (ZOMG so hard to spell) or at least pediatrician, some sort of doctor. They should know.
Reply:Ive been having the same question over teas so just to be safe ive stuck to hot lemon and orange water made with fresh fruit...but after finding this link i think im gonna brew up some red rasberry leaves.
Hope you find it useful too:
* Red Raspberry Leaf (Likely Safe) - Rich in iron, this herb has helped tone the uterus, increase milk production, decrease nausea, and ease labor pains. Many of the “Pregnancy Teas” commonly contain Red Raspberry leaf to help promote uterine health during pregnancy.
There is some controversy about whether this should be used throughout pregnancy or just in the second and third trimester, so many health care providers will remain cautious and only recommend using it after the first trimester.
* Peppermint Leaf (Likely Safe) - Helpful in relieving nausea/morning sickness and flatulence.
* Lemon Balm (Likely Safe) - Has a calming effect and helps relieve irritability, insomnia and anxiety.
* Ginger root (Possibly Safe) -Helps relieve nausea and vomiting.
* Dandelion (Insufficient Reliable Information Available) - Rich in Vitamin A, calcium and iron; dandelion root and leaf can also help relieve mild edema and nourish the liver.
* Chamomile (German) (Insufficient Reliable Information Available) - High in calcium and magnesium; also helps with sleeplessness and inflammation of joints.
* Nettles (Stinging Nettles) -(Likely Unsafe-see note ) High in vitamins A, C, K, calcium, potassium and iron. Used in many “Pregnancy Teas” because it is a great all-around pregnancy tonic. (*Note on the safety of Nettles: Natural Medicines Database gives Nettles a rating of Likely Unsafe, even though it is used in countless pregnancy teas and recommended by most midwives and herbalists. This may be in relation to which part of the Nettles plant is used, the root or the leaves, and how much is used. According to other sources, the use of Nettles is encouraged during pregnancy because of all its health benefits.2)
* Rose Hips (Insufficient Reliable Information Available) - Very good source of Vitamin C and helps boost the immune system.
* Alfalfa (Possibly Unsafe) - Has Vitamin A, D, E and K; particularly good in later pregnancy to boost Vitamin K, which helps prevent postpartum hemorrhage.
* Yellow Dock (Possibly Unsafe) - Used to help treat anemia in pregnant women due to the high level of iron. Also contains Vitamins A, C and calcium. *(this may also be used as a laxative - talk with your health care provider about the use of Yellow Dock during pregnancy).

Reply:I've got a tattoo of an angel on my shoulder, but have plans to continue the artwork to cover my back.
I'm not into piercings, but that's because I don't even wear jewelry - not into the bling.
Reply:I have my tragus done, normal ear lobes and belly, but my fav piercing would have to be my septum! (for those who dont kno thats a 'bull ring' through the centre of my nose). I love it because i can flip it up inside my nose and hide it wen i want. My parents still dont know teehee! =D
Reply:My first pericing was when I was 18, my nose. after that I decided I was going to go crazy with them they are so addicting.:] I got my eyebrow, a snake bite, and my ear twice on each side. I plan on getting a set of doves on my shoulder blades, and a snake on my back.

I had my nose and bellybutton pierced but have since taken them out because I got bored with them...
Oh, just thought you should know that ladybug might cause you some pain, I had a flower tattooed on my foot a couple weeks ago, OUCH!
Reply:Wow! That's a lot of earrings! I'm totally addicted to that stuff too though, but my ears are only double pierced. In the past I had 1 cartilage peircing, my belly button and both of my nipples. I joined the army out of high school and took them out, then I had kids so those piercings had to go. I've still got one below the belt though ;)
Tattoos. There's the real obsession. I have 7 and I sit and design more all the time. I recently started tattooing with my roommate as a hobby and I'm currently doing a rework of a really old tattoo of his. I've given myself one so far and did one for another friend of mine, and my roommate gave me a new one a few months ago. I love tattoos- getting them, giving them, drawing them, looking at them!

Is this tea safe?? I am six weeks pregnant.?
The tea is "sweet dreams" herb tea by bigelow. The ingredients are chamomile, hibiscus, peppermint leaves, rose blossoms, spearmint leaves, spice, and orange blossoms. I am thinking of drinking it to help relieve migraines. Would it be safe to drink it? What about drinking it with two tea bags steeped at once?? And also what about 1-2 bags steeped for like 20 minutes. Thanks for your help. (there is supposed to be a length of time to steep tea that will make it medicinal strength, anyone know off hand how long that is and would it be safe to do?) Thanks so much for your help:)
Is this tea safe?? I am six weeks pregnant.?
I am so glad you asked!
you wouldn't want to brew it that long it would be so astringent your mouth would pucker
steer away from the mints: peppermint, spearmint
and one of the ingredients in that tea is catnip, you do not want that
especially since it is also a mint
it would take a whole lot mind you, but plants in the mint family used to be used for abortions
It can cause complications, especially at the strength you are talking
any herbal tea is wise to check out good job!
and herbal tea usually doesn't do well with long brews, I mean as little as 2 minutes may be enough
Reply:Use anything herbal in moderation while you are pregnant. A few bags a day of any herbal Bigelow tea should be fine, but if you drink very large quantities, you might see some effects of some of the herbs.
Reply:if it is caffiene free it should be alright. Just be careful because tea has been known to lower your iron :( as for the steeping for medicinal strength im not too sure.
Reply:This is what I found:
Teas that are not safe during pregnancy: These include anise, catnip, chamomile, comfrey, ephedra (called ma huang in traditional Chinese medicine), European mistletoe, hibiscus, horehound, Labrador, lemongrass, licorice root, mugwort, pennyroyal, raspberry leaf, rosemary, sage, sassafras, stinging nettle leaf, vetiver, and yarrow.
Check out the link below!
Reply:You just don't want to much caffine is all.....some of that is caffine free, if not, just limit it. No biggie. I drank small amounts of caffine when i was pregnant but wouldn't drink imatation sugars, no diet drinks. I wouldn't take any medicines either, so good job on relieving your headaches with a natural rememdy.....good luck and congrats on the baby!!
Reply:As far as I know, avoid any teas with raspberry leaf, which can promote early labor. The rest of the ingredients sound similar to the ingredients in my morning sickness tea from our local apothecary, and I had a healthy 8lb baby a day before her due date. When in doubt, take it easy on the tea until asking your doctor :)

Passion tea while pregnant?
i had the startbucks passion iced tea and now i read it contains no caffine but has hibiscus extracts. not sure if it can harm my baby. am 18weeks. anyone else had herbal teas? anyone aware of hibiscus effects?
Passion tea while pregnant?
I found this at www.babycenter.com
It says that's hibiscus isn't safe.
Which teas are not safe?
Many of the herbs used for teas, when taken in large or medicinal amounts, can potentially stimulate the uterus and induce miscarriage. These include anise, catnip, chamomile, comfrey, ephedra (called ma huang in traditional Chinese medicine), European mistletoe, hibiscus, horehound, Labrador, lemongrass, licorice root, mugwort, pennyroyal, raspberry leaf, rosemary, sage, sassafras, stinging nettle leaf, vetiver, and yarrow.
Although some midwives use raspberry leaf (also known as red raspberry leaf) to aid delivery, its effectiveness hasn't been proven. In any case, it should be used only near term and under the supervision of a healthcare professional. Avoid the rest of the herbs in this list during pregnancy and lactation.
Note: You can still eat food that contains herbs like rosemary and sage, because the amounts used in food are generally much smaller than those used in tea — and not as potent (the brewing process for making tea concentrates the chemicals of the herbs).
Among other reasons to avoid certain herbs used in teas:
? Coca (also known as mate de coca) contains small amounts of cocaine.
? Comfrey, kava root, skullcap, valerian, and woodruff may damage your liver.
? Lobelia contains nicotine.
? Mate (or yerba mate) can contain as much caffeine as coffee.
None of these herbs should be taken
Reply:I would probably not drink it since you are not aware of possible effects of hibiscus.
Reply:Actually a Hhibiscus extracts Hhibiscus Suff- something can't remember is being tested for pregnancy weight loss post partum. So maybe in a couple of years it will be something.

Chimamanda Ngozi Adi?
Can anyone tell me how to pronounce this name? She is the author of Purple Hibiscus and Half of a Yellow Sun.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adi?
Chim (as in Chimpanzee)
Chim-ah-manda
Ngozi -- N is hummed. NN-gor-zee
Adichie -- it has four syllables -- ah-dee-chee-eh
Reply:You pronounce it Phonetically Chim Amanda exept for Ngosi which is ( n go zee ) Adi chi.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is a formidable member of the newest generation of Nigerian writers. Her debut novel, Purple Hibiscus, won the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best First Book and was shortlisted for the Orange Prize for Fiction. She is currently at work on her second novel, Half of a Yellow Sun, set in Nigeria during the Biafran War. In the conversation that follows, Adichie shares her views on religion in Nigeria, the seduction of Lagos, the legacy of Biafra and its place in her work, and what it means for her to be Nigerian.

I had the white ones when i got married i held them with the long steams and a purple ribbon wrapped around the stem all the way down . the only thing is it all depends on the time of year you get married i got married in aug. and they were not in season then so it was very expensive to get fresh so i opted for silk they were still very nice and looked real
Reply:I love calla lilies and I hope to be able to use them for my own wedding; however, many people, especially here in the South, consider the Calla Lily a flower best suited for funerals. If you ask my mother, marriages might as well be funerals.
Reply:Yeah, I agree with Janet. For some reason I link cala lilies to funerals. But people seem to like them for weddings too. I'd cut out the anthers though, if you get that on your dress it's very hard to get out.
Reply:Calla lilies are beautiful wedding flowers. Look at the fourth photo down on this page.

Reply:I think they are gorgeous and are great for weddings. The only problem with them is if you have allergies, because the sap that comes out of the stems can give you a rash.
Reply:Yes, they are beautiful flowers for a wedding.

Getting my first tattoo in about 4 weeks... HELP!?
I am 17yrs old in a couple of months ill be 18. I have aways wanted a tatoo, i know what i want i just dont know where to get it. I want to get it somewhere sexy and hott. I was thinking on my lower back in the middle or on my upper butt. its nothing big, its a little hibiscus about no bigger then an inch or two...
Getting my first tattoo in about 4 weeks... HELP!?
It's your body girl!!!!! Put it in a place where you feel comfortable. Ask yourself,is it for others to see or only for you. If it's only for you then you can have it on your butt but if it's for others to see then you can have it on your back. I'm sure it can be seen with low-ride pants. But one advice. If having a small tattoo don put it on your lower back as it won't look nice but if that's wat you want then go for it.
Reply:Don't get a "tramp stamp" on your lower back EVERYONE has a tattoo there, go original!
Reply:Sounds great, you might want to consider getting it a little bigger..
Reply:I would wait until I was older. I think back to when I was 18 (I'm 25 now) and I don't even know who that person was. I would be totally unhappy if I got a tatoo then because my style is so different now.
But if you wont change your mind, Good luck!
Reply:I have a tattoo on my lower back but it is pretty big and when I was going in she (my tattoo artist) said not to get one that is too small on your lower back or it will kinda look lost another thing to keep in mind when your getting a tattoo on your back is that you can't really see it everyone else can see it if you want them to but you like never get to see it. Another thing to think about with tattoos on your lower back is when and if you ever have kids depending on where it is on your back you might not be able to get an epidural I was very lucky that my tattoo wasn't any higher up on my back the anaesthesiologist told me that if my tattoo was a little higher I wouldn't have been able to get an epidural and he said some anaesthesiologist won't do it period on someone with a back tattoo (jerks) .. it was something I never thought about when I got the tattoo about 5 years ago but I'm so glad that it was okay I don't know if I would have been able to make it Through labour with out one good luck
Reply:I got my first tattoo for my 18th as well, and I was wanting to go into a professional position when i get into a career. So it needed to be able to be covered, and so I got mine on my lower back. Mine was Celtic looking, so it was bigger, a hibiscus would look hot up on a shoulder too, especially if its smaller. So, it depends on how discreet you need to be.
Reply:Before getting a tattoo, really think about what you want to have done and where on your body it will go. This isn't something you should be asking perfect strangers about. It has to be what you want, what will make you the most happy for the rest of your life and will fit your lifestyle.
I waited several months between deciding that I wanted a second tattoo to make sure that I knew exactly what design I wanted and that I was happy with where I was planning to have it done. It was worth the wait and I haven't regreted it for a single moment since.

Original tattoo idea?
a hibiscus flower , south floridas popular flower, with a pin-up girl as the stigma and staminal column, which is the long skinny part sticking out of the center of the flower.
also would this be considered odd for a man to have?
Original tattoo idea?
Hmm, interesting and original indeed. However, I'm just wondering how it will look on you when you're 65...

Making my own Artifical Bouquets?
I want to make my own artifical bouquets... But i want brilliant blues and teals.... can you die the artifical flowers? or is there any sites i can pick out my own one by one i prefeer tropical flowers hibiscus or roses .... help would be great thanx!
Making my own Artifical Bouquets?
Use a water-based floral spray paint on any flowers made of a porous fabric. Water-based floral paints are not toxic or flammable like regular spray paints, and they don't make the silk stiff, as many other paints do. If you are buying flowers specifically to paint them, look for the low-cost white petals rather than the more expensive colored ones.
Steps:
Shake the can of paint for one minute, then spray each flower lightly. If the color is too intense, spray the wet paint with water to dilute it.
Let each flower dry for 30 minutes, or use a hair dryer for faster results.
To add a second color to the edges of the petals, spray the paint into a pan or bowl, and dip the edges of the petals into it. To soften the color, spray the flower with water.
Reply:Most craft stores offer a wide variety of colorful silk flowers. It would save a lot of time on your wedding date, and the flowers won't wilt or die!

Reply:Google it you can find anything that way. You might also want to check with craft stores in your area even check with Wal-Mart, some of them have a large artificial flower selection. Also remember that if you don't see it in the store that does not mean that they can not order a special kind or color for you.
