?I am thrilled that companies who design for the full figured woman now have a platform where we can showcase our collections and network. This has been my dream come true, and to see so many smiles in the audience was a great reassurance that you don?t have to be a stick figure to consume and enjoy fashion,? said Yuliya Raquel, IGIGI Designer and Founder.

I think of my collection as an instrument that provides form-fitting and figure-flattering looks, and therefore, makes a woman feel radiant and beautiful and fall in love with her reflection with one look in the mirror. That kind of glow, love, and confidence is what will help and make others change their view of beauty, that is, beauty is confined to a certain size.?

IGIGI collections are manufactured with the highest quality fabrics and workmanship and reflect the latest trends in fashion.

Vote For Best ?Do-It-Yourself? Home Improvement Project & Win Up To $500 Shopping Spree

Port Charlotte, Florida (PRWEB) January 28, 2012

TheMoldStore.com is giving away 50 Free Lunches ($ 25) and the chance to win a $ 500 shopping spree just for voting in their ongoing contest at http://www.stone-project-contest.com. The contest website showcases the best ?Do-It-Yourself? projects by everyone from housewives who have redone the concrete floor in their home to weekend warriors who transformed the exterior of their homes with brick facing made with TheMoldStore.com molds. Contest winners are posted each month to the contest website and can claim their prize by emailing Contest(at)OldeWorld(dot)com.

TheMoldStore.com customers entering their projects can win shopping sprees of $ 100 or $ 500, with the contestant earning the most votes winning the Grand Prize of $ 1,000. For the contest, The Mold Store assigns each Do-It-Yourself project entry a web page on the contest website. The contest is ongoing till April 30, 2012 so voters have a chance to win each month. Official contest rules are available at: http://www.stone-project-contest.com.

Home improvement projects can add thousands in value to a home. But, often the initial retail price of materials makes such projects costs prohibitive. Additionally, the average homeowner does not normally have the expertise necessary to take on projects like making their own tiles or adding a brick facing to their fireplace. With TheMoldStore.com products and their instructions website, customers learn to cast manufactured stone, brick veneer, pavers, concrete tile and stepping stones for pennies each. Using these concrete stone veneer molds anyone can complete projects they may have put off for years and at a significant cost savings.

One contestant, homeowner Scott Sellers, researched the cost of his project and found The Mold Store through a friend?s recommendation. To complete his project with manufactured stone would have cost him $ 3,495 plus shipping. Natural stone would have cost $ 6,990 plus shipping. But, TheMoldStore.com materials for his dream project came to only $ 350. Mr. Sellers said he was finally able to, ?create the backyard I had stuck in my head for over two decades.? He added, ?I guess this is one instance where the saying, 'you get what you pay for,' does not apply, I saved a fortune.?

The Mold Store provides Do-it-Yourself kits for anyone to complete stone, tile, brick remodeling projects and more. Easy instructions allow any homeowner to complete projects that look like they were done by a pro. Their custom concrete molds drive material costs down up to 90% off of retail prices and let homeowners add thousands of dollars to their home?s value.
