Update

Good day everyone! It's been already almost a week since I posted anything on this blog. Sorry for that. Last week has been pretty amazing. I celebrated my birthday three times (!).On the day itself with my grandparents who came over for dinner, last Saturday for family, and Sunday for some friends. I got amazing stuff and I am very thankful for everyone who came.
Later on this week, or maybe next week I'll post some pictures of my presents. Excited to let you guys know!

It's also been a busy week, I have a lot of work to do, and I've been so tired lately. Can't fall asleep, and end up sleeping for maybe 6 hours and then I have to get up and go to school. It's pretty exhausting. Tonight I'm going to bed super early. My goal is to be in bed at 10PM. For my birthday my friend Nathalie gave me 'The Perks Of Being A Wallflower', by Stephen Chbozky (hope I wrote that right haha) and I really like it so far. Some parts are kind of weird, but the writing style is very nice and relaxt.

So that was my super duper short update. Hope to talk to y'all soon! X

My 16th Birthday!

Good day.

Good day everyone! How are you doing? I am doing quite excellent actually. School this week has been okay so far, after a lovely week of vacation. But now the hard work starts again. In 6 weeks is already the next test week, ridiculous! And I already have to start studying.. Great.
But today is a good day. I had a short day of school and was home super early, which meant I had time to watch the brand new Pretty Littly Liars episode that came out yesterday. Amazing show! Absolutely love it, the mysteries, the story line, everything!

Also, today I have piano lessons again. I have lessons once every two weeks. Not very often, but it's enough. Right now I am learning how to play Don't You (Forget About Me) by Simple Minds.
And before you ask, I already knew the song before it was in Pitch Perfect --'
Really love the song! Go and listen to it! I am sure you'll like it. Or maybe not. What do I know? (:

But before piano lessons, me and my family are going to the church, where there is a HUGE dinner for everyone from our church who wants to come. So excited! It's gonna be amazing! They organize this huge dinner normally once or twice a year. It's always really nice just talking to people who you normally don't talk to that often, and the food is great (:

But I really have to practice piano before I go to work, so I'm off! I'll leave you with a very chill song I personally really like.

Lovely Spring/Summer Fabrics

Good day folks! Today another sort of DIY blog post. Or actually, more of a sewing post? I dont' know exactly what to call it. Let me just begin at the start. I like to sew my own clothes. I am still in the learning process and I still need some help here and there, but I am okay (:
I started making clothes for the first time about two years ago, when I was 13. It's not like I make all of my clothes myself. Not at all! Just sometimes (usually during vacations) make clothes. My latest project were some really lazy and baggy trousers. I made those the past Holidays. And last wednesday, there was a conference where there are a ton of stands where you can buy fabric, patterns, needles, and everying else you could ever need for crafting. I went there with my mom and grandma (who also love to sew and to diy. I obviously got it from them) and I went looking for some fabrics. I wanted to find 2 very colorful pieces of fabric to make a skirt and to make another one of those lazy and baggy trousers (but this time I wanted summer-y colors).

On the picture on top of the page you can see the pieces of fabric I bought. I know it's not that clear to see, but there are 2 pieces of fabric, not one haha, although they look alike. The one on the left, I want to use for the other pair of trousers. The one on the right I want to use to make a bright and happy floral skirt. So far, I have made just 4 pieces of clothing: a pair of trousers, a pair of jeans, a blouse and of course the baggy trousers I mentioned before. And since almost all of them (except the blouse) are more winter/autumn clothing, I wanted to make something cheerful. Well, if you ask me, these pieces of fabric are perfect! Don't you think?


The teeny tiny picture on the right is a model of what the skirt is going to look like. Very wavy and summer-y. I love the pattern and it is not that hard to make. Whenever I have the time (hopefully very soon) I am going to start with the trousers, since I can wear those earlier than this thin skirt haha.
Spring, here I come!

DIY Projects

 

Happy Saturday everyone! As promised, today I'm writing a blog post about the DIYs I did last weekend. As you can see on the picture above, I completed two projects last week. The first one is a painting of a zebra (oh man, I hope you figured that out, because if you ask me, it doesn't look like a zebra at all), and the second one is a black and white portrait made with paper.
