American Indian Beadwork
American Indian beadwork is a popular collector’s item other than wines and foods. Intricately beaded pieces of clothing, moccasins, and ceremonial head dresses are striking, and make a nice addition to any collection. Historic pieces of American Indian beadwork are featured in museums across the country, and include fabulous displays of early beadwork using seeds, beans, nuts, shells, bones, teeth, rocks, quills, claws, pearls, turquoise, coral, silver, gold, and other things found in nature. According to www.nebraskahistory.org, it wasn’t until the early 1800s that American Indian beadwork featured the use of trade beads in the colors of light blue and white taking the place of the more primitive pieces used before. The new beads allowed Indian artists to be more creative in their designs and patterns.

University of Michigan Apparel
As an avid sports fan, I've gradually come to appreciate and prefer college football, basketball, and hockey games to the professional varieties. That's because college athletes often play with more heart and determination, and they clearly have more fun while doing so. There aren't any multimillion dollar contracts to distract them, there aren't any agents getting involved in things, and there aren't any personal endorsement deals to worry about. But since I went to a small school that doesn't have competitive sports teams, I had to "adopt" a new school and team to root for on the national stage. After a lot of thought, I chose the Wolverines -- mostly because of that team's tradition of excellence.

Birkenstock Sandals
It's been a long day hiking, and I'm anxious to finally get in and get the tent setup. Haven't even started the cooking fire, and I can practically smell the food already from the hunger and imagining it to be on a chocolate gift baskettes entirely for my desert. Those are the kinds of tricks that the belly will play on you after a full day in the woods. I take off my cumbersome hiking boots and put on my Birkenstock sandals, ready to relax around the campfire.

Faux Fur Coat
When a woman wants to wear a fur coat without the guilt of knowing that an animal sacrificed it, she can instead choose to wear a faux fur coat. There are many negative images that are associated with real fur coats mostly with the treatment of animals. Animals are many times mistreated when making real fur coats and it can diminish the population of these animals as well. A faux fur coat looks like the real thing but without having the negative connotations. It can look great and be very fashionable as well. Fur coats are making a comeback in the fashion industry but the negative connotations are not, so a faux fur coat is a great way to stay fashionable without carrying the bad stigma of real fur coats.
