DIY Tassel necklace

I was inspired by other fashion bloggers with their DIY clothes and accessories and got me to do my own DIY. I wanted to get tassel necklaces from online shops for quite a some time now but shipping fees make me think twice about my purchase. (kuripot?haha) Unless I want to buy clothes but with accessories I had to think over and over again. Just last Saturday, I finally got the urge to DIY and I was happy about the outcome. I went to a local fabric& craft shop and bought these: 

Tassels , Half meter gold chain, necklace lock, rings (all just cost me between 100-150 php)


1. Arrange the tassels on how you want it to look. I didn't buy enough since its just a trial so I arranged them with spaces.


2. Insert the rings on top of the tassel. The rings serve as the pieces that will attach the tassel to the chain.


3. Attach the tassels to the chain. I didn't have any tool to help me in attaching so imagine my patience.haha.


4. Attach the lock at one end of the chain


5. My finished products! Had one in mint colors


And to top it all of, I just made these babies in less than 30 minutes. I'm proud of myself!haha

DIY Birthday Giveaway

 Hi everyone! Finally our baby girl's 1st birthday party is done and it was a success! I'll post pictures of her gown and how the party went in another post. Sharing to you what kept me busy in the past weeks. Here's my DIY birthday giveaway for Sam's enchanted garden party.
This was one of the last preparations for Sam's party. My mother-in-law came home from her trip with those porcelain mini baskets 5 days before the 25th of February. So I immediately came up with with this idea.(Insert light bulb!)

What you need: A glue gun, pink ribbon, the basket, some potpouri flowers, paperbag
First, I attached the pink ribbon onto the basket using glue gun.
I intertwined the ribbon to add color to the basket.

Then placed this cute lavender butterfly on the handle of the basket to be in line with the fairy theme.
At first I didn't know what to put inside the basket. My mom suggested to put some dried flowers or potpouri flowers instead.
The finished product.<3
The purpose for this bag was actually for the goodies but then the candies and chocolates won't fit. Such a perfect timing, this became the giveaway bag instead!haha
Simple and easy giveaway for an enchanted garden birthday party <3


This is actually on the the advantages of being a full time Mom. I haven't received any calls yet from the jobs I am applying but I'm still thankful coz I was able to give my effort and time for the preparations. Everything paid off actually! Will post pictures soon!!<3
