We shot the Signorina signet rings at a used books shop and I brought along some of my favorite books with me.
I draw, paint, letter, and everything in between. Here are my attempts at art!

Handwritten Fonts: How I Make Mine
I still keep a planner where I write my schedule in—although I admit that I sometimes log in the details after the fact. I keep a journal where I write down my intentions every month or so. Even with most of my life online, I still always keep a pen and paper on me. So

Trying Slab Pottery at The Crescent Moon Cafe and Studio Pottery
The first time I tried Slab Pottery (I keep typing poetry instead of pottery, haha) was a couple of years ago in preparation for Craft Camp Antipolo. We were there for an ocular visit and decided to make some pieces so we could pick them up in a couple of weeks’ time. We each had

What’s Your Type?
I’ve been home for four days and except for the dreadful heat, I’m actually enjoying all this free time. Since it’s just me and the boys at home, we’ve been rotating household chores. Strangely enough, I think I’m getting the hang of washing dishes. Haha! I’ve been binge-watching different series and catching up on ones
