Crafty Gift Wrap

04.26.2013 by Leah //

Just sharing with you this little craft project I did last week: DIY wrapping paper that I used to wrap some birthday gifts. I used a pattern paper as the 'wrapping paper', which I got from National Bookstore (only P19.75 for 5 sheets).  I like the paper because it's smooth, durable and easy to work with stamp (the ink dries out easily). This is also my first time to ... READ MORE

Easter Eggs Chocolate Lollipops

03.31.2013 by Leah //

Happy Easter! I'm sure a lot of families will be trooping to the malls and hotels today after the traditional Easter Sunday Mass for the Easter Egg Hunt.   Here at home, we just had a mini-Easter activity for my nephew, Liam, which is Egg Painting.   He loves to paint and he totally enjoyed that one (never mind if the hard-boiled eggs cracked in the end, having fallen off ...

My Chic Chandelier Wall Decal + A Blog Give-Away!

03.23.2013 by Leah //

I've long pinned images of these elegant chandelier wall decals in my mind, and mentally listed it as my next home project (after the wallflowers): I searched Multiply.com and Sulit.ph for local sticker decal suppliers and found one at Multiply that sells the exact chandelier sticker decal I'm looking, for only P600.00!     The shop's name is Refresh Fashion ...

Electrolux HUSH Happier at Home

03.01.2013 by Leah //

Hello, folks!  Don't you just love Fridays?  I spent the whole of today at Sta. Cruz, Laguna for work.  Left our apartment at 5 a.m. (because we are to leave for Laguna at 5:30 a.m.) and then traveled back to Manila at 6:30 p.m.  I got home at 9:00 p.m. On ordinary days this kind of travel would make me irritable because of the commuting and the traffic that I have to bear ...

Soft Look for our Home

02.02.2013 by Leah //

Now that February is in (my birthday month, yey!), I thought of using these throw pillow cases and curtains that we bought months ago from SM and the Landmark: That's the curtain at the left, throw pillow cases in the middle and at the right. Would you believe that the throw pillows cost only P50.00 a piece?  An incredible price for such luxurious fabric!  I really love the ... READ MORE

Wallflowers

01.24.2013 by Leah //

Our first home project in 2013:  wall art! I've been wanting to spice up the walls in our living room which is painted in pale yellow.  But I don't know exactly what I want to put there.  All I know is that I don't want them adorned with mirrors and picture frames.  I'm just not into those.   I want funky wall decors. And what could be more funky that these 3D wall decor ... READ MORE

Celebrating Christmas 2012 & New Year 2013

01.07.2013 by Leah //

We celebrated Christmas and welcomed New Year at our home.  Compared with last year,  this year's celebration was more upbeat - with AJ and I entertaining friends over at our apartment and then there's my little nephew, Liam, who also spent the holidays here in the Metro (much to the delight of my parents!). To prepare for Liam's coming, my dad re-decorated my old room and ... READ MORE

Decluttering our home before the New Year

12.29.2012 by Leah //

AJ and I took the day off yesterday to declutter our little apartment in time for the New Year.   The first time we did this was last year (our first year as a married couple) and have found it to be both therapeutic and fun!   So we vowed to do this every year on the week after Christmas, just before the New Year sets in. Now that doesn't mean I've been an OC my whole ... READ MORE
