Since late last December, my mind has been all about Houdini, Blaine, and Copperfield. You see, come January, my son is to perform on a talent show for his class and he has chosen to be a….

Transform from Baby Crib to Table in 3 Easy Steps
Our crib has been gathering dust for the longest time already. I’m not ready to pack it away just yet but I really hate the way it’s eating up space and having no use. So one crazy Saturday, I got the idea to transform it to something more useful – a study table! It’s actually […]
DIY LEGO Tray
Ever since DA got a LEGO set (a Sluban set actually) for his birthday, I’ve been having trouble finding some space. The set was placed on a plastic foldable table, which we also use for writing. Since the set occupied half of the table already, there was not much space for anything else, much less […]

DIY Captain America Costume and Others
It’s that time of year again when Halloween is near, where scary costumes abound, and superheroes… get confused?

How to Detangle Jewelry
I’ve had this necklace for years but it’s also been years since I’ve last used it. You see, it has a really bad and ugly knot near the pendant that I have tried but failed to detangle. Just recently, I read somewhere that baby powder can actually help do the trick. Judging by the knot, I […]
How to make Diaper Dolls
A few weeks ago, a friend of ours gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Racking my brains for a gift idea for our hospital visit, I finally settled with doing a diaper cake. As any mom can attest, diaper gifts really come in handy because newborns really use up soooooo many of it. But one […]
