Whhhhaaattttttt?? Already? lol

Hi lovelies, It's been, once again a while! I haven't posted for September yet...the time just came and went by quickly....today I thought about 9/11 and prayed for the people who have lost loved ones and for the heroes who either risked or lost their lives trying to help and rescue people. I'm once again reminded how much I am blessed...although it's not perfect, I am thankful and appreciative of my life and the people in it =] Life has been quite busy but good...I have alot of posts to catch up on...one of the many reasons (or some might say excuses) for not posting is because I had technical difficulties...my macbook had zero capacity! I had to clean it up looking through thousands of photos and videos and saving it on CDs...I now have 2000 and something photos to look through still, yikes! Through the process I somehow managed to lose everything on my I-phone as I accidentally pressed restore =[ I have some stuff backed up on my mac but not everything...although it does suck, I am looking at the positive side...and that is the feeling of a clean slate lol =] look forward to some posts =] night night, Carezza

5 necklaces in 5 minutes =]

Here are the photos of the necklaces I made this morning =]

The 5th necklace is actually the necklace I wore in the photo in the last post =] Toodles for now, Carezza

Happy thursday!

Hi peeps, Once again, I have been meaning to post and now I am behind again lol! I just checked my last post and saw that I wrote that the week flew by...and this week has flown by as well..which is good because it's gonna be a long weekend =] Yayyyyyyy! Before heading to work this morning, I happened to glance at my desk and saw a cannister of all these old beads I had probably bought 10 years ago and never used them for anything...Right then and there I wanted to make a necklace I could wear to work because I had also purchased a while back, a set of necklace wires from good ol dollarama...I just took out the beads I like and voilá! 5 necklaces in 5 minutes lol...will be posting some photos....I've also been thinking that christmas is actually around the corner and want to make presents this year....will be posting stuff that I've made and how to make them =] In the mean time take care and stay tuned, Carezza

What to do with all these old beads? =]

Make some necklaces of course! lol

TGIF!!!

Yayyyy, it's friday! This week really flew by...lol...I want to say I've been busy doing laundry, cleaning out my closet, purging papers, organizing my scrapbook supplies lol but to be honest I've been so busy with watching one of my favorite korean dramas for the fourth time lol...it's actually about 25 hours! yikes! and I finished it in 4 days lol..I still laugh and cry when I watch it, and I've been getting my Lee Min Ho fix =]I realize that I can add pages and hope this will help organize my post...I've been starting a journal/scapbook and have been meaning to take photos of it...If I have any leftover scrapbook paper or if I see a magazine or newspaper clipping, or a tag from shirts and bags that I get, I stick it in there...lol whatever I think is cute..will be leaving some of my fave Boys over Flowers photos that I googled...Aza Aza Fighting, Gu Jyun Pyo and Jan Gun Di <3 !!!

You can actually wear the paper bow pins =]

Wish I had my friends with me right now to model them but I will have to do for now lol

Paper bow pins

Hi peeps, As promised here is how I made the paper bow pins =] Enjoy! Carezza

All this paper! lol what to do.....

What you need: -paper stalk...the paper stalk that I am using is 5x7..plain or patterned but you need to use thick paper, like scrapbook paper -scissors -bobby pins -mini plastic hair ties

Follow from left to right...hope it's an easy follow: -fold the paper in half length wise -using the scissors, cut it in half -each piece of paper should be folded in half -then starting at the closed end, fold it like you are making a fan -tie the elastic around 3 times in the middle...as long as it is not too tight and not to loose -then fan it out -place the bobby pin through the elastic in back of the bow

Tada! Bows galore lol

Happy tueday!

Hi lovelies, It is definetely a happy tuesday...I heard the great news that a good friend of mine had her baby girl this a.m! Yay! I'm a Tita again! Can't wait to meet her....I also had a great and busy weekend and the high is still there =] My hubby and his bros and sisters organized a surprise 75th birthday party for Tj's dad. He is an amazing and supportive Father in law =] He really was surprised =] TJ and I decided to spend some QT together on Saturday doing errands...we ended up at Bloor west street fest where one of a kind artists had their creative goodies for sale =] then we went to Kensington Market and walked around....peeps must be wondering why would you make some QT with the hubby, if you see him every day? lol well, our week is pretty hectic and we don't really spend as much time together as much as we'd like to lol One of the things that keeps us busy is doing what we love to do...lol and that is creating something lol..tj is a photographer and hat maker by passion..although he didn't go to school for it he persevered at learning and practicing his crafts , he is amazing at both =] well, I think he is =] I also like photography, scrapbooking, card making, and anything DIY that catches my eye...I have so much paper still and want to do something with them...I decided to make paper bows and put them on bobby pins...I'm not sure if it's because of Hello Kitty but I have an obsession with bows...I love them on clothes, as jewellry and hair accessories...lol stickers, anything with bows =] will be posting on how I made the paper bow pins through photos...I'd love to do a video but I'm still a little shy to do that =] lol Toodles for now, Carezza
