Journal/Planner 2020

by Gilian, in category Art, Crafts, Creative Writing, Journal, Thoughts

DIY customizable planner/journal. I’m more of the journaling type, and I’ve used planners in the past, mostly for journaling ideas, reflections, writing topics, etc. What would usually happen is that I’d use up all the pages of the planners before the year even ends. 3 months to be exact. Thus, loosing track of all the… Read More

by Gilian, in category Photography, Saudi Arabia, Women

I was with my family traveling to Madinah around May this year when I saw this view: At first, I thought there was a sandstorm in that area until I saw lightning somewhere near and I realized it was raining in that specific spot.

CRAFTS| DIY Minimalist Notebook

by Gilian, in category Crafts, Family, Women

Most filipino moms here in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia buy the basic school supplies like notebooks, pencils, and crayons from the Philippines (if there’s a chance). Mainly because the supplies in the Philippines costs lower, but are of good quality. I asked my brother-in-law to purchase notebooks from the Philippines for my kids while he was… Read More

Improve

by Gilian, in category Blogging, Crafts, Jeddah, Photography, Thoughts, Words

​Blogging or writing about things that I like help me improve my skills and I like helping myself develop because…I can and it could help me and the people around me. To be an asset, not a liability. To be able to contribute to the group or company where I am in. Washi tapes. Even… Read More

Craft Puncher

by Gilian, in category Blogging, Business, Crafts, Photography, Thoughts, Women, Wonders, Words

Last month,  I made an invitation for a friend’s Silver Wedding and I found this lace craft puncher fit for edging or making borders. I find it very useful especially for elegant invitations and designs. It was just difficult for me to do the punching,  maybe because I was using 180-200gms paper. I also use… Read More

Baymax Polymer Clay

by Gilian, in category Blogging, Family, Jeddah, Photography, Thoughts, Wonders, Words
