Book Review – Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins My rating: 5 of 5 stars Just finished reading and still a little overwhelmed… I actually shed a few tears while on the last few pages, while reading them on a treadmill at the public gym *a little embarrassed* The story in Hunger Games Trilogy is extremely intense, intelligent and unpredictable.

Weekend Project – Bean There, Done That Patterns

This weekend project was the kind of spontaneous “use-what-you-have -in-the-cupboard” type of thing. I haven’t prepared anything special for my girls, but they fully expected for me to deliver an exciting and creative activity on a lazy Sunday afternoon. So, I just went for it.

Moleskine Confessions

I have very complicated relationship with infamous Moleskine journals. I like pretty much everything about them, from the simple covers to handy bookmark & convenient stiff covers.

Plus, being a graphic designer, I can get my hands on lots of lovely paper samples… And if I see some of them being thrown away, my little paper-loving heart [...]

Wednesday Etsy Finds – Orange

The way I came up with this theme for today’s Etsy Picks is a strange and twisted path… For one thing, there’s this: If you can’t figure out what a bunch of drunk Russian programmers has to do with anything, don’t despair, I’ll help you out. You see, they are taking part in an annual [...]

Weekend Craft Project – Scribble Drawings

I’m still missing my vacation Weekend Project for a simple and stupid reason that I can’t get the photos off of my daughter’s digital camera. No cord, no pictures, no pictures – no project. Still looking though… In the meanwhile, this is what we did last weekend. I’m not sure if I mentioned, but I [...]
