I first made a lollipop cut out using styro materials and then designed it with crepe papers, glitter glues and ribbons.. after cutting out the lollipop styro i then used plenty of white glue and glued it on the the white part of a 1/8 size Illustration board.  I actually made two lollipops as the task was...

Sophie Paris

I know someone who sells Sophie Paris items.  I actually saw the catalog before and ordered a black bag which I like so much ♥ It was P 890.00 and came with a free pouch.  The pouch I use for my make up.  I also ordered a sling wallet for P690.00 and I sooo love it cause it had plenty room for cards and had pockets for mobile phones which I use when I go to the grocery or the mall and don't feel like bringing a huge bag. This is the...

Awesome Quality ♥

When I was still living in the States I have been a MAC, Maybelline, Bobbi Brown, Revlon, L'Oreal, Nars, Benefit, Almay, Shiseido, etc.. cosmetic user. Of course when I was a single-career woman, I had extra funds to splurge on make up of any brand as long as I wanted the shade of the eyeshadow, lipstick, foundation,etc. I would say that majority of the vain women like me would agree that GOOD MAKE UP IS NOT CHEAP! Am I correct? After 6 years of marriage and two babies ♥ i now have to set priorities and ofcourse that's to ensure that I support...

Lollipop Costume

Missha's teacher wrote on her journal a note for me to prepare a lollipop costume/props for my daughter for their presentation on November 15- their Family Day ♥ Being thehe doting mother + stage mother + self confessed DIY addict that I am .. I was at the mall on my lunch break getting the materials I need for this project! And yes... I am super excited to start making it. The challenge however is that we have to use yarn and 1/8 size Illustration Board and it had to be a costume covering Missha's front and back tied by a yarn that should...

Career Talk

My dad once told me to succeed in your career you have to put your love and passion into it.. you have to love what you do... you have to love your job.  When loyalty, effort, passion, dedication, and everything is given because you put so much love into your work you feel thankful and blessed that you have a job and you enjoy coming to work everyday... But sometimes there are unexpected things and situations that happen that you completely have no control of and all the words that came out has caused a great impact  and damage in your...

Random Thoughts..

I have so many questions in mind.. I can't be straight forward and publicly blog about it cause it involves someone special and dear to my heart.. anyway I feel so sad cause I know he put so much love into his work and something like this happens... on a brighter side I have wanting him to move to a different developer anyways since last year and he believed in his current developer so much.. but with the system that commission is not prorated i feel the pinch of price increasing everywhere in everything and budgeting has become a challenge. An...

Throwback ♥ DIY Headdress

Super sorry for the bad image quality I have no idea why my phone camera when I took these photos gave me horrible image quality (moist in the cam almost which made it really blurred).. anyway this photo was taken back in June for Nutrition Month.  My daughter was asked to bring her own headdress with photos of vegetables and fruits.. i improvised and made it all 3D fruits and vegetables ♥ Yup yup yup she won best in headdress ♥ ♥ ♥ ...

DIY Hula Skirt ♥

My Favorite Movie

Have you guys seen the movie entitled "Heaven Is For Real?" This movie is actually a novel which was published in November 2010 and written by Lynn Vincent, Sonja and Todd Burpo. Then on April 2014 they initially released the movie. The reason why I love this movie is because it sharpened my faith.  Once the movie started playing as in hindi ko maalis sarili ko sa harap ng TV talaga super ganda.. maybe i was emotionally into the movie because I am a mother and wife just like the character of the mom in the movie and my children mean the world...

I Miss Blogging

I really missed doing this... i miss having this space online where I can express my thoughts through writing. There are days when you feel that facebook and instagram have become too mainstream and you feel the need to go back to your roots, to your original sounding board, to that space where only quite a few really take a peek. Today is one of those days and I never felt so guilty to have foresaken one thing I love doing the most - blogging.  I...

Hello!

Hmm.. that doesn’t really sound like a groundbreaking to start a blog.  How do you start one anyway? Well, let me just tell you WHY.. as a wife and mother, I sometimes feel like the days just pass by too quickly (wait, what day is it now anyways?!).  So, this blog will serve as a break from my hectic schedule (feeding, changing diapers, watching cartoons, and working in the office..) A little “ME” time of sorts where I can share my thoughts...
