Chill and Whatever!

It's the time of the year again where I get taba, while my wallet gets payat (translation:  I get fat, while my wallet goes thin).  *Sigh* just the other day I spent a day or two of my earnings for a hearty breakfast meal at Wildflour and chillout in Jamba Juice with some friends and I can't believe that I accumulated some trinkets/stuff since December started ticking and I haven't bought any gifts for Christmas!!!!.  Luckily for me, I didn't pick any skincare or cosmetics (can you believe that) and just been purchasing cute stuff and clothes (when Forever21 got a massive sale) and just decided to share it to you :)

for the love of craft

Who gets excited with a big eraser?  Obviously me that I wanted to squeal when I saw tons of it in SM store thanks to my niece who reported the exciting news to me, now I have to bring out my carving tools (hoorah).  I also got a polka-dotted washi tape to brighten up my little gifts this holiday season.

for gift tags

Kids stuff?  Nope these two will be a perfect pair to make a personalized gift tag.  Got these two from Paper Chic Studio.  You might be wondering why the first layer is in reverse, well it got jumbled (the F having the A when you stamp it).  I will think twice before I order again to Paper Chic Studio, not the smoothest and had a bit of a headache in the ordering process (sorry but just telling the truth).  Anyway, I must start the tag making.

peppermint

I can't help but be happy to have some peppermint this holiday season and what's better than peppermint in christmassy packaging???  Both pleasing to the tummy and the eyes!

creme soda, finally!

Eversince I saw a copy of the Butterbeer's recipe, I keep on searching for Creme Soda and eureka I finally found one.  Well it's in red, I don't know if this is for the holidays only (?) but a red butterbeer wouldn't hurt plus it will look festive too.

Lastly, Kitkat which I bought for P250 through an officemate which she got from the land of Hello Kitty- Japan (just joking).  I wish the different flavors of Kitkat would also be readily available in the groceries here especially the green tea flavor.

Just 9 days before Christmas and I'm pressured than ever.  Must make some cookies to giveaway and do some shopping for gifts.  Maybe I should make more 3D snowflake to amp my holiday spirit :)

Thanks for reading. Till then. Bye!

Crafty Hands!

I don't know why or how I got into this but I'm tying, knotting, crocheting some threads to make bracelets. Honestly, I don't wear most of my "creation" (ahahaha) but just in case you are interested in making your own accessories, here's some sites that I find really helpful in making diys.

ISPYDIY have lots of DIY accessories.  I made a bracelet with the inspiration below but have to improvise for lack of materials.  Too bad our neiborhood is not craft friendly.

And have to use safety pins to almost all the bracelets that I make.  Some may find it silly but it's quite cute if you ask me :)

Life After Breakfast is another site with lots of craft inspiration.  The picture above specifically attracted my attention and have to research on how to do it which leads me to Lebenslustiger.com
