This is my first giveaway and as much as I am excited about it, I am more keyed up about the product itself. The product I am blogging about is IdeaPaint. What is IdeaPaint? Well it is environmentally complaint and virtually odorless paint that turns any surface into a dry erase or white board. As …
Last summer my husband and I painted almost 8 areas (6 rooms, 1 hallway and 1 powder room) in our house. Working only during the evenings and weekends it took us about 5 weeks to finish those many rooms. We still have about 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms to paint and we are going to …
It is Spring break, that means the girls are at home the whole day for a whole week. To keep them entertained and away from iPad and iPhone, I thought it would be great to make something that is easy, quick and fun. As I was not in the mood to do any shopping, I …
Do you ever wonder what to do with all the fabric scraps you have from previous projects. Well I was in the same boat as you. Over the years, I have amassed a huge pile of fabric scraps. I know there are bunch of things one can create with them, but I deviated from those. …
As I approach 2013 with new objectives and resolutions, I look into my past for resurrection. I am not talking about resurrection in terms of religion. Actually it is a revival of my old T-SHIRT DRESS Project (those who don’t remember about it please check out the link). About two years back I collaborated with …
I know what you are thinking…. not another tote. Actually, I was planning on making this one for quiet some time now. My little one started attending Hindi language classes at our local temple. I wanted to make her a monogrammed tote, which she could use to carry her textbooks. But, It took me a …
Ok…I agree the title is a little misleading. This is not my tutorial for making a ruffle scarf. However, I will say that the following scarves have been made in thirty minutes and that too by T. Even though I was aware of how to knit this scarf, I was more interested in the crocheting …
I don’t buy into this whole pumpkin-carving event during Halloween. I hate it and find the whole thing messy and disgusting. I don’t like the fact that once we have carved the pumpkin we leave it exposed to outside elements, which most of the time results in a rotting, shriveling and repulsive sight. So like …
I just finished making these gorgeous aprons for my Diva-Licious series and I am excited to put them up for sale on My ETSY Shop. When I bought the fabric from Jo-Ann’s , I was not sure how it would translate as an apron. After looking at the finished product, I am delighted and at …
Summer holidays are officially over and my girls had their first day of school yesterday. The holidays were bitter and sweet. It was sweet because my parents, sister and her six-year old daughter visited us from overseas. It was bitter because much of that visit was spent dealing with medical emergency involving my dad who …
Summer vacations and badgering kids go hand-in-hand. Don’t get me wrong, I love spending my time with my girls, but there are days when it’s enough to induce some serious hair pulling. To avoid television and technology time, I am forced to come up with fun activities which I am sure other moms will back …
Currently my husband and I are painting our whole house (yeah unbelievable, right?). During my breaks, I took out sometime to do my next project which I have aptly titled Clipboard Chalkboard. There was no particular reason for me to do this project except the fact that I was tired of seeing my little one …
I came upon this unique grater earring holder on Pinterest , and since then wanted to make my own version of it. I think who ever came up with this idea deserves a huge pat on the back. I am always on the lookout for reducing clutter and clutter free ideas. This grater earring holder …
Thanks to all my friends and supporters of this blog, MY ETSY is doing well and frankly speaking it looks a little bare. So with the intention of adding some more items, I took off to Jo-Ann Fabrics and Crafts yesterday to splurge on some fabrics. While I had to control myself from going fabric …
I finished making this cushion cover yesterday and was going to put it up for sale in my ESTY Shop. But, when I started taking the pictures and saw how gorgeous it looked, I changed my mind. I decided to keep it for myself. Sorry guys ! My only regret is that I did not …
