A closer look at the butterfly earring :)

Today started really sunny and I didn't expect it to rain in the afternoon, more so to go out of the house and go to the mall with my mom. LOL So as lazy as I always am on a rainy day, I just threw on a long sleeved top my aunt gave me and pair it with comfy shorts because I hate getting my jeans wet. I wore slippers because I also do NOT want my shoes to get wet too. My earrings are extra special because I made them! :)

Nowadays, my mom usually is my constant companion. Apart from the fact that I work for her on the weekends, I'm also her 1st helper in anything and her "driver" whenever she goes grocery shopping or just wants to go to the mall to eat or buy her stuff. It's like our bonding session. We get to talk a lot about diverse topics- something we weren't able to do when I was in my "teens". I am happy though that both of us get to have these dates because it's high time that I need her counsel and advice because I'm entering a stage where I am ready to have my own family, work abroad, etc.

How was your day? ;)

not an ordinary Sunday

Today is not my regular Sunday. Well, most of it is the same but the fun I had wasn't. After church service, we stayed for a long while and I don't know how my mind was so in sync with my sister's that we were very spontaneous the whole afternoon. We spent our time with the kids, a couple of 'em were our nieces.

DOWNTOWN

Today, PJ and I went downtown to look for supplies for my online accessories shop. It was really hot and I loved it. We just parked the car at a mall and made our way to what we call here in Iloilo "downtown", on foot. These days, our couple time is either we're watching a movie, going for a little run/jog or walking the streets of Downtown Iloilo to find supplies for my shop. Unfortunately though, there were no available items of what I specifically need. However, I really enjoy spending my time with him and I love that he's so supportive of what I do. I find it the cutest when we both synchronize our errands, especially bank errands so we could meet at the bank and do other errands while enjoying our time together! :)

Since it was hot during the day, I decided to wear my trusty white breathable blouse and denim shorts. I was actually feeling kind-of lazy so I just put on a nice pair of earrings, a couple of handmade bracelet and watch, wore flats since we walked all day and a mailman bag. :D

HARD CANDY

It has almost been a month since my last post.  I have been very busy lately with work, errands at home and my new-found hobby cum business. Lately I've been staying up later than usual jut to make more and more items and also because I have orders already lined up for this month. I started this venture late last year but I wasn't able to market them well because I was so caught up with the Holidays and finding another job. The only thing I put up though, was its facebook page and I've only updated a few months back. I'm so happy right now with the support my friends and family are giving me. My sales are just going up and now, I have people interested in reselling my items and ordering in bulk. :) I am so H-A-P-P-Y! ...and BUSY! LOL

Anyway, here are a few  snapshots of what I'm currently busy with: HANDMADE ACCESSORIES!

If you click through the link above, you'll be able to see all accessories I've made so far. It's a new found hobby although arts and crafts has been passed on to us from my grandmother then to my mom then to me and my sister. Forgive my last 3 photos as they show you my messy work station! :)

Contact me on facebook if you want to buy or order these items! ;)
