“Somebunny is One” Theme for First Birthday
Being an auntie to my friends’ kids has given me carte blanche to spoil them and adore them unconditionally (and then hand them back when they’re pooping and crying). My most ultimate favourite auntie role, aside from cuddles and chubby cheek smooching, is crafting and styling my friends’ babies’ special events. Okay, maybe I appointed…

Easter Egg Decoration
This year for Easter, I really wanted to step up my egg game. The past two years I’ve kept the Easter decor to a minimal, gracing our space with only a vase of fresh tulips and a small bowl of Cadbury Mini Eggs. But let’s face it, the tulips never lasted and certainly neither did…

Gallery of Vintage Travel Posters
The bare and beige wall above our couch desperately needed some colour. After browsing uninspiring wall art in home decor stores and online, we had the idea of creating our own little gallery of travel posters. Not just any travel posters – we wanted our gallery to represent the destinations we’ve ventured off to in…

Reupholstering my Friend’s Retro Chair
When my friend asked me if I could give her antique chair a little tender loving care, not only was I excited to revamp a piece of furniture (which I haven’t done in so long and miss doing terribly), I was just so extra thrilled that a friend asked me to do it for her.…

The Similarities Between Dating and Job Interviewing
Earlier this year, I did a bit of career soul-searching. I decided it was time for me to step up the ladder and change my professional scenery.

Life in the drawings of Yaoyao Ma Van As
One of the best things about discovering an artist is when their work speaks to you, straight to your heart. When you see your thoughts, your experiences, your emotions, basically your life, reflected through the artistic imagery of a complete stranger. That’s the kind of connection that makes art so unique. I felt that way…

Polaroid Themed 30th Birthday Party
Turning 30 is a big milestone in one’s life. I’m not one to get caught up on age, but I am one to use it as a cause for celebration. The #tbt trend was the main inspiration for my party because I wanted to pay homage to my birth year, which, I must admit, is…

Cozy Game Night
Hosting a game night is probably one of my favourite kind of social gatherings to host. It’s laid-back, cozy and it guarantees an evening full of hard-to-breathe laughs while playing old faithful games or learning new ones. These photos are from a past games night we hosted – party of 6, snacks, homemade lasagna, and…
