another pouch



I just needed another pouch for other paper stuff.I don't like papers getting soggy and creased in my bag so I had to find my stash of pretty swatches and I got these cute design and it turned out really fun.I had to add the lace and the blue button, similar to my make-up brush pouch-it's like I made a theme for these pouches. I could probably name it the lace and blue button pouch collection haha

my very own Nautical bracelet

Got the inspiration from here:

from http://ablissfuldream.blogspot.com.au/2012/02/diy-nautical-rope-bracelet.html

What I made was very simple, from just what I have around the house- a cute gold elastic kind of string from a free recipe I got from the supermarket,some beads from a broken necklace, a clasp from a broken key chain and voila!

Quality Street memories


Quality Street dream...I love them...I love eating them all,the toffee, milk choco block, caramel,orange crunch etc. all the types, it doesn't matter.When I was young I shared them with my younger sister and cousin(I think reluctantly).We would eagerly open the balik bayan box and eagerly look for chocolates especially large and small tin cans of QS. My sister got a small can for Christmas and I think we acted very nice around her so she would give us some. I remember opening a large rectangular box and we would sit in the corner and eat it straightening the foils after each bite and piling them up to see how many we've had.Very delicious I love those times.

white crayon and water color card




Got this for Rendz and I just draw shapes using a white crayon and painted gold water color over it ,it looked like a wedding themed card though.

DIY stuff 2012



I just signed up in Pinterest and there were a lot of DIY ideas like the 5 minute vest from old t-shirts (which I also did-recycling my URU cowl neck that I can't use coz it's ill fitting) and gift wrapping and other things and then I just got this idea of making my own make-up brush pouch.It took the whole afternoon for me to finish it and I just used old fabric swatches for it and I think its cute.
