21st Birthday Party

Last month, I had fun decorating my daughter's 21st birthday party. It was so much different from sewing for a change. The original plan was to do it in the garden but unfortunately it rained on us. So, on the last minute, we decorated the house. Here are some photos of the decorations --- tissue pompoms (which I made myself) and paper lanterns!

Table centerpieces made of tissue paper pompoms made into a bouquet held by a chopstick and placed in water bottles.

Paper lanterns hanged on corners 

I made these luggage tags as a giveaway!

Tissue paper pompoms!

Lanterns hang on top of the other with matching tissue paper pompoms!

Meet Kiki

Kiki is a Pomeranian x Silky Terrier puppy. My daughter got her when she was only 3 months old. When she's in the mood to play, she'll bring her toy to you and she won't leave you alone until you play tug-of-war with her. She loves to run around the yard, play with the soccer ball and chase birds.

She's a bright little princess who always think before she acts. During the day when she's by herself, she loves to lie down near the front window and watch people go by, sometimes barking at them, sometimes not (just depends if she likes your energy or not!). And when she needs to go, she goes up the stairs to her pee pad in the bathroom. 

She keeps herself busy with her toys and takes naps every now and then. Thank God she is not the type who would chew your furniture but she's got one weakness --- she loves to unroll the toilet paper when she's bored to death when home alone.

Kiki likes being silly, enjoys playing fetch and is always willing to collect her toys but of course with a price ... her favourite crispy liver treat.

Kiki is 10 months old today. Here she is posing at the camera (well, she was forced to by the human!)

Motivation and Inspiration

Have you had those days when you're not just motivated to do anything? or those times when you feel like doing something but there's just no inspiration pouring in? 

I get those days every now and then and my collection of favourite quotes always helps. Here are some of them. If you want to check out more, I post them in my Pinterest board called "Something to think about".

I hope you will find motivation and inspiration in these quotes and sayings. Enjoy!

 

Enjoy the Break

Second to Christmas, the Easter break is the second longest public holiday. I'm sure everyone else is looking forward to a four-day long weekend. So what have you planned to do? In my case, none. I'll just cruise along and see how I go!
