New Look

Hello! 

Have you noticed the drastic change of design? 

If you haven't, you should go get your eye checked.

How do you guys like it? :)

I changed the background into this pattern I made here. 

You guys should go check it out, you can make & color your own pattern!

It's really fun and can be addictive to do. 

Also, I added buttons!
Here's a brief description about each.

Memories - Posts under this are about a part of my daily life. Once the moment is over, it becomes a memory just like everything in our life. 

           Snapshots - Posts under this feature some of the photos I took. Like  

           the Socks & Lights post. 

             I'm feeling crafty- Posts under this are basically related to art.            Whether be it about paper cutting or something to do with string or even a painting. 

They were all edited in this site called, Pixlr.

What I like about Pixlr is that if you don't have photoshop, this is a great substitute for it.

Although, it isn't exactly like photoshop, only similar.

Also, they have their "Retro vintage effects" which are cool too.
I might add new buttons every now & then if something new pops up in my head.

Tell me what you think. :)

Do I need to change my header?

Add a border?

Suggestions are welcome!

"Sticks and stones may break your bones"

I found this pretty interesting tutorial that you could do at home with the simplest of materials.

You can use different colors of string/yarn and make it as big or as small as you want. 

Here's how mine turned out :) 

Instead of using yarn, I used string instead cause it's what I had on hand. 

It still turned out nice either way. 

Mine is pretty small, it only measures around 7 inches wide.

 I used up a good amount of string because of this, so make sure you have enough.

I hope you try it out, it's pretty fun to make :) 

That's all for today!

Feelin' Crafty

I'd have days when all I would do is to look for something to do. 

A few months ago, I was reading this blog.

I was inspired by her patience to do such amazing paper cuttings that I tried to do some of mine as well.

As you can see here, I was experimenting with what you can do with an X-Acto knife.

How much pressure you need to put and how exact it really is.

Well anyways, I was talking to my friend and he told me something.

Then I thought "Hey, I could cut this out!" and so I did.

After over 4 hours of drawing & cutting, this is what I came up with. 

Tell me what you think. :)

 "Close your eyes and dream of your future and everything will fall into place"

He didn't say that, he said something similar which gave me the idea to do this.

My hand was so tired afterwards. I had to be so careful not to rip it, I ripped some parts and I was so furious. I had to take several breaks or else I'd just give up right there and then.

You guys should try it out some time. :)

All you need would be:

• a X-Acto knife
• Paper (preferably one that is thicker so it'll be easier to cut)
• Patience
• Imagination

And that's all! 

Socks !

Yes, socks. 

I don't know what it is about socks that make me so happy.
They bring warmth and color to your feet.
They make a dull and boring day a colorful one when I put them on.
I just love socks.

Here are the latest pairs that I got. My best friend gave them to me. :)

All 5 of them.

These yellow ones are my favorite. It's so bright & colorful, I love it!
I really do feel like I'm walking on sunshine with these on.

Aside from the yellow pair, the pink one is my second favorite. Heehee, isn't it so cute? :)

I just really do love socks. I'm such a strange person. Hahah!
Do you see that oval looking birthmark on my left shin?
It's actually a scar I got from falling up the stairs.
I know, who falls while going up the stairs? I do.

'Til the next post, bye bye :)
