“Winter ONE-derland” Theme for a First Birthday
Leave it to the shortest month of the year to be packed with special occasions. Some of my most favourite people celebrated a milestone chapter in their life, succeeded a professional accomplishment, started a new job, and two very dear people to me have birthdays during this month. Basically, celebrating life is how this February…

Framed Pressed Flowers
One thing that I’ve realized about myself is that I often feel the need to be surrounded by environments that ignite inspiration.

Additionally to baby Chloe,…

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…
