Cleo Madison Makes an Appearance in Key West!

By At the Fence
Hey, Neighbors!


Today I want to tell you about a modest clothing company called Cleo Madison-  they contacted me regarding featuring a product on At the Fence, and I jumped at the chance.  Their motto is "Modest and stylish clothing at affordable prices", and they definitely deliver.  Before choosing an item I browsed their website and was pleasantly surprised at the variety of styles available.  All dresses have sleeves, higher necklines, and are at least knee length (many longer as well), and guess what?  Some even have pockets!  I'll never understand why designers think women shouldn't have pockets too.  Haha.  After debating several, I went with the Floral Veronica dress. 


The dress is very comfortable and lightweight, which was perfect for wandering FL.  It's almost a t-shirt material and has a little stretch to it.  I love that it can easily be dressed up or down!  I tend to wear mainly neutrals (a lot of black) and very basic/simple (my family says boooring) outfits.  Honestly I wasn't quite sure if I'd actually wear the dress, and thought I might end up passing it to my little sis.  It looked really cute, just wasn't my usual style.  But I decided to add my own touch and give it a go, and I am glad I did!  


I saved this for the gospel cruise we go on and wore it on one of the days in port- Key West.  Now you'll see what I mean by, "add my own touch".  I decided to go for a sort of Audrey Hepburn-ish style, and paired the dress with leggings, ballet flats, and a skinny belt... hair pulled up in a bun (it was so hot!), small dangle earrings, and a pair of oversized sunglasses helped to complete the look!




Put it all together, and I loved the outcome.  It was completely modest, stylish, comfortable to wear while wandering the island, and as promised, their prices are quite affordable.  They are a company that I would definitely recommend to others.  Be sure to visit the Cleo Madison website, browse around, and then place an order for yourself!  You will not be disappointed with your purchase.  You can also "Like" their Facebook page to stay updated on restocks, new arrivals, etc.

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

By At the Fence
When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

By At the Fence
Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child
