Loving Gingersnaps

I was at a mall looking for gifts for my three godchildren and came across Gingersnaps. What made me take a look inside the boutique was actually their cute window display. I had a hard time choosing. All were pretty, the fabric, the designs, the colors.

My godchild wearing gingersnaps dress i gave.Her mom told me this is one of her favorite.

My godchild was giddy and immediately wore the dress.


For Christmas, this will be my go to place shopping for my seven godchildren. Here are a few of my favorites.

Thankful For Being Alive

A7.1 magnitude earthquake hit our region last Oct. 15. I was sleeping when it happened. My husband and I ran as fast as we could to go outside our rented house. I was so afraid and shocked. It was a traumatic experience and we were not sleeping well for days especially during night time due to the strong aftershocks. I fear that our house would collapse on us. Thankfully there were only a few cracks on the surface unlike those of living in Bohol (the epicenter of the earthquake) wherein houses, roads, ,bridges and historical churches were totally destroyed, and many died. It was heartbreaking. 

We are  doing okay now but our people especially in Bohol are in need of help.  Various organizations are doing a lot to help our people. If you want to help please click here a  complied information on how to help

I  thank God that my husband and I are safe and still have a roof over our heads to sleep well and have something to eat. Everyday that we are alive is a gift and should be live to the fullest.

{DIY} Paper Fans



Can't believe Christmas is fast approaching already! Days are flying by. Today, I want to share how to make paper fans and use them in wrapping gifts. You only need art paper/s, scissors and glue.


Instructions

  1. Fold the paper in half. 
  2. Cut the folded paper.
  3. Fold it again in half. And then cut the folded paper. 
  4. Make an accordion fold. Then fold it in half.
  5. Glue them together. I used hot glue because it will hold them together best.
Have fun!
