iPhone Snaps & Bits: Summer in Brisbane 2015

I'm very grateful and lucky that me and my boyfriend get to go for holiday this summer. It's nice to have a breather from stressful environment. We flew to Brisbane pretty much every year to visit family and friends. This year is the longest we stayed and I love every bit of it! That gives us more time to see everyone and catch up. February is the best time to go to Brisbane as it is not too hot or overly sunny. It can get a little humid though but I guess thats better than having both worlds. 

Holiday Makeup Inspirations

December as we all know is a very eventful month. Christmas functions left and right, and it can get exhausting thinking on what makeup to wear! Holidays is usually a great excuse to rock glitters and bold red lips, but it is not everyone's cup of tea. I have collected some makeup inspiration for this holidays that might help everyone in coming up with their holiday look. It ranges from a nude lip, pinks & berry, to a classic red lip.

Gift Wrapping Ideas Using Brown Paper

 Hi everyone! Feels like forever since I last posted in my page. I've been out of the zone for a couple of months and struggled on what to write since I don't wanna be repeatitive and bore myself as well as my readers. Anyways, Christmas is 8 days away! Can you believe it? 2012 is over soon! As we all know, holiday season is probably the most expensive yet fun holiday through out the year. Bargains, christmas decors, ginger bread house, and cookies are my just some o my favorite things during December!
I know a lot of you are having troubles finding gifts and easy way to wrap it creatively without spending so much money. Here are some ideas of how you can creatively wrap presents using things that are just lying around your house:
Don't underestimate the power of brown paper. It never goes out of style and is perfect in every occasion . What I like about this brown wrapper is that it serves as a plain canvas, so you can do minimal or all out decor in the canvas. All you need is used fabrics, stamps (to create that vintage look), ribbons, and paint. And holidays wont be complete without a glitter!

 
Hope this post help you getting your last minute gifts all wrapped up. Thanks guys for stopping by!

Artsy Craft

           This is the other side of me. I love making personalized cards and thank you cards by hand. For me it gives more meaning to the card than buying it on stores. Last year, Christmas 2011 I made cards for Jack's family. I got inspired by Japanese handmade cards which was made out of natural materials such as dried leaves, flowers, little branches of tree, even grass! Anyways, the cards I made are all the same since I dont want them to think I favour the other person more. Well except for the Nana as she is the woman of the house hehe..

For Nana and Jack's mum

For Aunts and Uncle

          The photo quality is just bad as I only used my phone at that time. I kind of made it last minute and just went with whatever I can fine in our backyard and my art box. Its tacky I know but I want to be good at it! Bring back the old hobby :)

Sunshine Coast

      On our third day in Brisbane, we went to Farmers market where they sell a lot of food for cheap price. I was so amazed and I wanted to buy everything! The heat that day was scorching and I can feel me burning. Then after that we went for an hour drive or so to Sunshine coast. This is close to Gold Coast if I'm not mistaken. I like the relaxed vibe and the shops around are cool.

Entrance to the market.

This cute thing!

I literally laughed my ass of when I saw this man.

You can see the pool from above with those big circles in the ceiling. Spell AWESOME!

I want one!

The happy couple.

Four days in Brisbane is not enough for me to explore everything but I'm lucky enough to be able to meet the family and bond with them. This is the best give Jack has ever given me and I cant thank him enough for a wonderful present. I enjoyed the mini holiday and I hope that I can go back there sometime next year. Thanks to Jack's mum for hosting us!
