This year I'm all about using the stuff I have and enjoying them. Every day is special because you are in it. :)
Currently enjoying the Firefly bluetooth speaker, my fave concealer from Nars and a new fluoride-free toothpaste.

Make Stuff Monday - back to upcycled decorated paper bag
It has been a while since I decorated a paper bag. Still one of my fave projects to do...and give away. :)
This one is all pink and super girly. Even took out my white acrylic marker for faux stitching. And yes, still finished with shimmering mist of course.
Hope August has been good to you so far.
Tuesday
Gratitude pages - Miffy head cushion and yummy lunch
Throwback to last November when I got the Miffy head cushion....she's super cute and a matching Miffy head charm (which I gifted to nephew #1's girlfriend). Also got to eat yummy food to celebrate the bestie's birthday. :)
Friday
Pages from the gratitude journal - Miffy drink containers!
Got these Montigo Miffy drink containers last year in Kuala Lumpur. Still using and loving them. :) Except for the Miffy slingbag for the larger drink container. It's pretty useless from protecting the base of the container when you accidentally drop it. Needless to say, my base has been dinged a few times. *LOL*
Basically just cut out the container box to decorate these pages. :)
Tuesday
This week's blue mixed media birdie
Lots of fun with this one. Took out the Caran dAche Museum pencils. Forgot how pigmented they are. Finished with regular coloured pencils and acrylic paint markers. :)
Thursday
On a roll - a week of eye drawings
Made the effort to give myself more creative time this week...yay, go me! :)
Wednesday
Workspace Wednesday - getting into the vacuum-sealed life
It's been a process to cut down on the use of plastic containers at home for food storage. I started with Pyrex glass containers for the fridge storage and glass jars for dried food. I also added some stainless steel containers so that the folks can bring food out to share with their mates without the extra weight and breakage concerns.
Last month, I invested in a set of vacuum-sealed glass containers for leftover food and some food prep ingredients to help me deal with time-constrained days. They have been great so far. :)
I used the packaging leaflet for my page in the gratitude journal. Added some stickers for interest.
P/s: Have you gotten rid of plastic for food storage in your home?
Monday
Another Monday, another mixed media birdie
Decided to play with some neglected art supplies for this mixed media birdie! Yep, took my neglected Caran dAche Neocolors II for a little play time. Love how vibrant they get when they react to water.
Friday
Mummy Yam's birthday 2026
We recently celebrated Mummy Yam's birthday! :)
We went out for dinner...
And she chose her own birthday cake.
Really had fun with the white paint marker on this layout. :)
Happy weekend friends!
Thursday
New pink bedsheets...gratitude journal 2026
Recently this girl has been buying new lightweight cotton bedsheets in pink! Easy to wash and hang!
Super quick page...just cut out the packaging and added some fun stickers! :)
Tuesday
This week's eye drawing is done!
Look it's only Tuesday and I got my ONE eye drawing done! *winks*
It's been so hot lately that I seem to get less done so this is a win! Hope you are enjoying better weather. :)
Friday
Friday's desk - this week's mixed media eye
I'm really trying...but this eye took a week to complete! Hope you had more creative than me! :)
Happy weekend friends!
Wednesday
Gratitiude journal - SQ lounge in Bangkok
I really enjoyed the SQ lounge in Bangkok - possibly the best I've be to in the region. And it's located just above the boarding gate for the flight back to Singapore. So you can literally stay in the lounge till it's time to board the plane. :)
