90 Years Loved: Handmade Gift Idea for Milestone Birthdays
I think there’s a certain aspect of romance to old family photographs. I don’t mean the old family photos at Chuck E. Cheese birthday parties in the 80s. I’m talking about those black and white photos of our maiden mothers, our newlywed grandmothers, or our handsome great uncles in some sort of distinguished uniform. It’s…

DIY Bar Sign Using Stick-On Tiles
I have acquired the nickname “Crafting Owl” because my creative ideas seem to come to me late at night. I’ve been known to sporadically pull out my craft box and try to create whatever my mind is visualizing at that very moment, and it always seems to happen between the hours of 10pm-1am. I can’t…

Fiesta Decor for Taco Nights
Apparently, a game night soirée was long overdue as our friends kindly reminded us (ahem, requested). The last game night we hosted was simple and cozy: I made homemade lasagna, and red wine and Cards Against Humanity were enjoyed until the wee hours of the morning. This year we wanted to try out the game…

Tutu Skirt Decor for a Baby’s High Chair
A couple of weeks ago, I styled the First Birthday party of my best friend’s baby daughter. There were many elements that I loved about this party, the birthday girl being the main one since she is a scrumptious little bunny doll that I wanted to smush every chance I got. Additionally to baby Chloe,…

“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.…

Current Skincare Products and Routine
I wish I had a photo of my bare face when I was in my twenties. Not because I had glorious skin and I want to reminisce on my youth. Oh, no no. The exact opposite of that. The photo would serve as victorious reminder of how far my skin has come since then. My…

Fun and Easy Halloween Costume Ideas
Halloween has always been one of my favourite holidays because it’s the time of year you are exposed to people’s creativity, humour and artistic dedication to become anyone or anything they want to be. As a kid, I loved Halloween mainly because it was the only time my parents allowed me to wear makeup. As…
