In the past, whenever our inflatables get a hole, whether it’s a toy or a swimming gear, it was headed straight to the trash. Not that I didn’t try to fix them, it’s just that I always fail. One day, it’d be all patched up and filled with air but deflated again the next. Ugh! I […]

My Happy Table
Despite the fact that we were only going to have a mini mini birthday celebration for DS (just immediate family, the godparents and their families), Miss Artsy me could not resist preparing a little something extra to add a bit of cheer and fun into the occasion. Notwithstanding the extra work and countless sleepless nights, I was glad to have done it. […]
Loom Bands as Party Giveaways
There’s no denying that loom bands are the “in” thing these days. I’ve succumbed to the craze and have bought myself some bands and a loom (3 actually) to work on. Being the only girl in the family though, I am the only one who enjoys my creations. Oh what fun. So with DS’s birthday coming up, I decided to […]
DIY Cardboard Letter Design Tutorial
These days, cardboard letters are everywhere! We see them in birthday parties, adorning the stage, the cake table, and the dessert table. We see them in kids’ rooms decorating the walls. They can go as small as 3 inches to as big as a couple of feet. In this post, I’ll show you how I […]
DIY Monogrammed Baptismal Candles
Oh my, it’s just a couple of weeks before DS’s baptismal/first birthday and I still have some a lot of things to prepare! I’ve just managed to partially tick off one item off my to-do list and that is the baptismal candles. I say only partially because I haven’t finished all the candles yet but I’m […]

Our DIY Playhouse
One lazy evening, a crazy thought occurred to me – I will make a playhouse for Ky! I quickly scoured the house and found these two. If I combine them, it’d be just the size I need! This is how it looked when I taped the two together. I then cut out a door in front […]
Look what came in the mail today!
A sewing machine! It’s soo T.H.E., right?! Gosh! I wasn’t even paying attention to the teacher when this was the topic, which means I do not have a single clue as to how to use it. So why on earth do I have one? Well, first of all, it seemed like a good deal. Secondly, […]
Ky’s Whimsical Cat in the Hat Birthday Party
Whew! Finally done with Ky’s 1st birthday party! I do hope everyone had a fab and grand time that day! I’ll share with you some photos and a little writeup of this fun and one of a kind (well, at least here in the Philippines!) themed party. Inspiration I wanted a party theme that has uniqueness […]
My Photobook =)
When Groupon came out with the deal on Photobook last August 2011, I was among the first of the many hundreds who purchased it. It was too good to pass up, P1000 for P4000 or P1400 for P6000. I got the latter of course! I was still pregnant with DS that time and since the […]
