Photoframe Makeover!

sweet
Hanging on my wall are the 3 patterned cloths I bought from the Supplies Surprise Bazaar but I just can't bring myself to cut them up for a sewing project just yet! So into these photo frames they go, up on display for me to admire till I should decide on a project worthy of their use.

Before that though, Ikea's Nyttja Photoframes needed a little decorating. I felt they were a little too bare and blockish, so I gave them a wooden border on the outside to make a softer appearance with some pearly/gold beaded strings dashed in to suit my fancy.

Nail of the week!

a shy star on a turquoise sky.


I picked up two adorable colours at Etude House during their sale (50% OFF) last weekend. And I just love the combination of the two! Yellow + Turquoise = <3

I've been stalking many baking blogs lately, and when I came across this how-to at Diamonds for Dessert, I was just blown away by how adorable they were. And looking absolutely delicious too! I just HAD to try it.

molten lava comfort food

there are many perks to having a Mum and Sis who bake. One of them, is getting to dig your fingers/forks into cakes, breads and cookies or whatever that comes out of the oven fresh and piping hot. Like awesomely crispy-on-the-outside-gooey-inside molten chocolate lava :

mmmm

gooey goodness
Okay there was hardly any lava spilling out of this one, but I'm not particularly a person of texture and technique so long as it taste awesomely delicious! Thanks Jackie!

Filing Cabinet Makeover

 FINALLY.

I thought it'd never end!

What I had lurking in the corner of my home was this really ugly thing. A metal filing cabinet. In the most depressing and dullest of colours - And I felt bad for it. It certainly didnt choose to be made or look that way. So having been inspired by the amazing makeovers at Design Sponge, I had to give this furniture some better days! Read about my little progress here!

The occasional Bling spree

I'm still warming my feet into the world of online shopping. I'm still pretty skeptical about the gorgeous pictures I see online compared to what I would actually find in the mail. Sometimes nothing beats retail therapy really. But I just couldnt resist when I went online window shopping at Soak Republic! Gorgeous shiny things!

I just love receiving parcels!

HOP Cookies!



I've been following SweetSugarBelle's adventures of cookies and icing, and I felt like bringing something cute  on the day of my company's movie screening of Hop.


Supplies surprise!


Rawr. I went to the supplies surprise bazaar with a budget, and I'm very proud to say I didn't go crazy :D
I'm quite excited to see what I'll make out of these random things I bought simply because I thought they were pretty.
