Trying Something New

Wednesday, May 25, 2016

Hello crafters!

I recently had the chance to visit Michaels (crafters heaven) in Canada and thought I would share some of the goodies I picked up in a video! I have alway loved watching YouTubers fashion or make-up hauls to see the latest trends and recommendations so I thought, why not do a craft haul since I’m a lover of crafts!

This is the first time I have filmed and edited a face to camera video so prepare for some awkwardness, haha. Here goes...

I hope enjoyed my little craft haul and my first appearance on YouTube and it wasn’t too painful to watch. I’m kidding.

Happy Crafting friends!

The Party Life

Happy Birthday My Dear.

Wednesday, May 18, 2016

What do you do when your best friend lives across the world and you can’t bake a cake for her Birthday? You DIY one of course and fill it with goodies! *insert sassy flip hair emoji girl

If you asked me if Nicole (the Birthday girl) were a cake, what cake would she be? I would immediately say one of Katherine Sabbath’s cake creations. Why? Cause they are always so bright and colourful, creative and totally awesome just like Nicole!

I used a simple round box I picked up from hobby craft and using my inspiration photos I translated Katherine’s cake onto the box with paint, painted card, paper straw and tissue paper.

And TA-DA . . .

Real Talk With T

Real Talk #3 | M FOR...

Monday, May 16, 2016

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a real talk post but lately I’ve been inspired to do one, so you're gonna get one! Today I wanted to talk about a little something called Motivation. Why? Cause motivation is what keeps us going to chase our dreams and not to give up on them. At times we all get those days when we just cba, I know cause I’ve been there a few times. So I wanted to share some of the ways I keep motivated and hopefully it will inspire you too to keep chasing your #lifegoals.

Above all of these small pointers, the most important of all is you got to love what you do. There’s no point in doing anything if it’s not fun, exciting and rewarding to you. It may not seem it at times, but life is pretty short so there’s no point in living without actually having lived at all.

Whenever I get stressed from work or when chasing this dream I have seem all too much to handle, I like to listen to Alan Watts, one of my favorite motivational speaker for a good pick me up. I recommend you having a listen to his lecture on What if money was no object as it always inspires me to keep on going.
