The other day, I saw this lovely DIY Chandelier Tutorial on Hey Gorgeous using paint swatches. I can’t wait to try it out and use it to decorate my room! So pretty---and easy!

I love Hey Gorgeous for Rhi’s pretty and easy DIY craft tutorials like the

Tissue Covered Luminaries and Ribbon Wands pictured below. The luminaries would really look good in our new home and my Mom would definitely love it!

I hope one day I can make pretty tutorials like this to post up on the blog.

 

Anyway, here are the links for you to check out if you are inspired and feeling craft-y.

 

Have a great day!

2. Tissue Covered Luminaries and

3. Ribbon Wands.

My sisters and I are excited talking about interior design (Got some good news to share with you before the year ends) and we’ve been talking about what colors to pick… Both of them already have detailed ideas in their minds, while I’m still working with my imagination…and I still need to research .

And I saw these cute, colorful coral and bright yellow pillows on

Jilly Bean Things today. I love textured pieces and colors that instantly brighten up my mood. Seeing pretty colors on a seemingly bad day cheers never fails to cheer me up. Do you like bright colors as well?

 

Thank you, Lord for colors!

I found this pretty wedding inspiration on Style Me Pretty {and no I’m not getting married. lol}. But I think this how my dream wedding looks like. Simple. Rustic. Flowery. And Dreamy.

 

I really love the lavender farm setting and the lady painting on the field. Very peaceful,  quiet and lovely. And the honey jars—sweet!

 

But I wonder if there are lavender farms in the Philippines? lol

Found these little origami pins and colorful necklaces tonight on

The Little Dröm Store and I was reminded of my grade school days.

So cute!

 

I remember in primary school, part of my school uniform was this

bronze pin with the school logo and my Mom would give me other cute pins as well so I could enjoy dressing up in the morning.

 

If only I’m still in grade school today. Lovely!

I found these super cute and lovely colorful throw pillows on Etsy last week and I can`t help but write about them.

 

Rainbow colors are fun, so much more when it comes to flowers. With these pillows, it`s like you have your own rainbow flower garden right in your living room!

 

{I should be paid for making an advertisement like this, right? lol}

 

Anyway, you can check out That Funky Boutique on Etsy (No, I`m not describing the shop. It`s the name of the shop!).

 

You`ll actually find out that there are even more colors than these. There`s a red ombre ruffle that looks like a real life rose, and some are available in darker shades of blue and also in gray (which is my favorite--the gray ones would look good in a white sofa!).

 

Happy Thursday!

Found this super cute and creative cookies on Manjar Sweets today! Mmmmm…

 

 

 

 

 

 

My dad would probably love these. But would guys love cookies for a gift? Depends, I guess. My dad eats anything you serve him! He loves food!

 

As for me, I`m enjoying the details! Cute!

The couple of weeks I was away waiting for my writer`s block to go away (Well, excuses! haha), I was busy helping out with the Kids Church and doing artwork for our little friends.

 

It`s been pretty busy in church these days. esp. the with the kids division, since one of teachers moved out of the city while the kids are growing in number every week. So I left Multimedia to help out. Teaching children is my first love! ;)

 

 

Last year, I wrote about interior design ideas for Kids` church. We`re still not done with the work until now. Ferdie, one of the church artist, painted a mural with flowers and whales, the ocean and a big rainbow. We`re planning to change that now and give the room a revamp, also to meet the growing needs of the children. We need to put up more cabinets and make the room more alive. It`s really like a workshop now, but it could be made nicer.

 

I`m thinking of painting the room in two or three colors: white, yellow, and light gray and then put on some pretty wall decals. Not only that they`re easy to put up, but they look so cute and lovely. Kids would definitely love them.

 

They`re a little expensive, so I`m thinking of getting only a tree since I bought little animals (on sale!). But the good thing in these decals is that you can peel and reuse them.  Good idea since the church has a building project coming up and we might be moving in a year.

 

Here`s what I`m eyeing on. So cute!

What do you like the most?

Found these super adorable handbags and clutches from Mar Y Sol today. Very unique and summery! I love the colors and how the bags were made.

 

I was never really a fan of raffia or native bags unlike my Mom who totally loves them {they`re everywhere in the Philippines!} but with these styles, I think I love them now!

 

But I honestly find  $70+ for a native clutch quite expensive. You can have them in Manila for $20-30. But I love looking at them anyway. lol

 

Pretty!

I used to love munching on ice cubes. Aaah! But CNBlue`s Yonghwa Oppa also does that… Excuses! haha {I can`t believe I just wrote “oppa” like a Korean highschool fan girl!} Anyone of you who also loves ice cubes, or am I just too weird? But with this summer heat in what`s supposed to be rainy day June, one just can`t help but find anything cold to eat—or munch on.

 

Flavored Ice cubes  are soft when you come up with a really creamy mixture or even just with fruit juice. Y-U-M-M-Y! I love that! {But I love it even when it`s just plain water.} And ice pops? Need not to say, they make me smile all the time!

 

I found these cute recipes I`m gonna try this week. Also perfect for you, my lovely friends who`s enjoying summer in your hometowns halfway around the globe.

 

Happy Summer!

 

 

 

 

 

PS. You can also make flavored coffee ice cubes out of coffee, tea or any  fruit juice… I like milk ice cubes in chocolate and tea. Or chocolate cubes in milk! I`ve also seen a recipe using canned fruit salad frozen into cubes and dropped in refreshing fruit juices! Mmmmm….

I`ve never really found anything as gorgeous are this. I really love simple, clean  designs that are warm and cozy at the same time. Those that feel so clean and you can almost smell the fresh sheets just by looking. And I absolutely adore anything yellow so if all those things go together, I`m like stunned and I can`t get my eyes of the picture!

 

I would really love working and writing and drawing in a room like this!  Mai really did a great job in remodeling her room! Totally awesome! All the pieces are those I would pick myself!

Have you seen my recent post about yummy-looking soaps? I`m seeing them everywhere on the web these days and I still can`t help but be amazed. Those pear-shaped bath fizzies are so yummy and sweet-looking. I hope someone would make those kinds of stuff here in the PI. I was thinking of starting a soap business for a year now, but it would really take a lot of study to be able to that, wouldn`t it?

Anyway, that ice cream dispenser above isn`t from Etsy, but isn`t it so cute and helpful for parties? And that Night Owl baby hat. Cutie!

I really intended on making an image map but after many hours, it just wouldn`t work! (sigh) Could it be because I`m using Blogger Draft and the platform is on a testing period? IDK. But I`m so sad. But then, I couldn`t give up now after the geometry I had to patiently endure. An image map will be up on the blog soon! haha

 

Have a great day!
