Want to restore a 40-year-old decoration to its former glory? Try these simple, safe cleaning tricks that won’t damage the finish.

Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into  Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up.  I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home. She said it was forty years old and already dirty. The saleslady explained it could be cleaned easily with soap and water. Carmina decided to take Mom Violy home and bring the crystal tree decoration with her. Mom Violy questioned why she was taking it, and I said I would clean it and return it.  I noticed Mom Violy had placed planting seeds inside the decoration, for reasons I didn’t understand. Before cleaning it, I checked online to see what was needed, knowing its value. I placed a towel underneath, prepared a plastic container with dishwas...

Becky Highly Recommends Headway Vera Salon in Timog Branch to Carmina


Carmina had a date with Becky for lunch not able to communicate with each other for a long time. Since we have spoken to one another every day you begin to miss each other as friends.

Becky had noticed my hair being long asking if I had any plans to have it cut. I said yes, the person Becka who use to cut my hair is too far away from me. Becka had moved to a new employer that is Taytay which I didn't want to travel too far just to get a haircut.

Becky had mentioned she saw a parlor near the area of Timog in Quezon City. Becky said the reason she likes Headway Vera Salon because when the people come out the ladies have beautiful hair.

Becky asked Carmina if she was serious to get a haircut today. I said yes as long there is not a long line when you enter. If there is, I'll just ask for their contact number.

Lucky me on a raining afternoon Carmina was able to get a haircut from Rolly who had first asked what type of haircut I wanted. I explained I wanted my back to be the same length yet keeping it into a bob haircut.

Rolly said he will start off shampoo and adding conditioner to my hair. Of course, wearing our face mask at all times when having everything done.

Carmina asked Rolly if I can take a picture together letting him know I am Carmina that I have a personal blog.

Rolly has been working at Headway Vera Salon for ten years and has been working for them ever since. He knows quite well how to style and cut your hair. I have seen him be able to take a lot of customers and be able to do two having their highlights and cutting my hair as well.


Becky uses to have Headway Vera Salon cut her hair year 2018 when she was working at the call center. She was just walking around looking for a place to go. Now it was passed on to Carmina to go to her next coming visit to do other stuff to her hair.
