The Creative Journals and Planners PH Mini-meet and my First Pop-up Booth

-
Last March 24 was the first Creative Journals and Planners PH (CPJPH) meet up. It was held in Bo's Coffee, Eastwood City.

As a small shop starting out, I wanted to try doing a pop-up booth in a small event so I sponsored lootbag content and snagged me a selling spot for the event.

I wasn't able to take a photo of my setup but I did learn a lot from this experience on how I can make my setup better.

What I did though was make sure I had varying height  displays to make it more appealing, I also had a tall-ish chalkboard sign.


It was a big help that I was in the table where the watercolor workshop was done! I was able to absorb what was being discussed and got to try doing some leaves using that magical triangle brush! You can see my chalkboard display too! Lol!

Being in the central table is super fun! Aside from getting to participate in the workshop, I chatted up a lot of people! It's a big win for me because I can't move around so much with my big, pregnant belly, and I do love socializing when I'm out of the house :)


The CPJPH was super duper fun! I went to my sister's condo at around 530 pm (the event finished at 5pm), and just went back at around 7pm to meet my friends for dinner, half of the attendees were still there planning, stamping, basically just continuing the meet up, like it didn't end a few hours ago! Lol!

I got home at around 11pm, and I was so tired and happy! I even got to take home freebies from planner friends.

Here's a video with these items up-close!




Meeting with friends in a planner meet is always fun! You get to catch up with each other and swap stuff with each other :)

Revampimg my new Craft Nook: Phase 1

-
Image
 We moved back to my parents' place immediately after I gave birth to my darling baby girl. So far it is one of the best decisions we have made as a family! Moving houses means a new craft nook layout, I was pretty nervous about how I'll set up my craft nook, especially my video rig, because the last time we stayed here, we were staying in the smallest room. Back then it was enough for our small family. That was also back when my craft stash was really small. Noq, my parents let us stay in my childhood room that I used to share with my sister. I love it because it's the 3rd (or maybe 2nd) largest room in the house. The down side is, we can't remove the big, old TV cabinet and bookshelf, which means we dont really have that much space working for us because our bed is humongous. In the end, I settled for using the small bookshelf as our cabinet. Some parts of the TV cabinet are being used for our clothes, baby things and craft storage. I placed my table in one

Prima Watercolor Confections Decadent Pies for coloring

I got my order of Prima Watercolor Decadent Pies last June 11, 2018 and I'm super excited to try it out. It's my second artist grade watercolor (Peerless was my first, check out my review here ) and I'm very excited to try it! Prima Watercolors are marketed to the crafting, card-making, scrap-booking, and coloring community. When you look for reviews in the watercolor art community, you wont see a lot of reviews for the brand. The watercolor is advertised as artist grade, high-quality, and highly pigmented. The company hasn't disclosed the type or source of pigments so there are no technical details about the light-fastness of the watercolors, which I believe is one of the factors why this brand hasn't infiltrated the watercolor art community yet. The watercolors are packaged to be an on-the-go watercolor palette. It comes in a nice black tin can with an aluminum finger hold at the bottom. When you open the tin, there's another aluminum cove

An attempt for Bathroom Sessions

-
Okay, I haven't thought of a nice title for my guitar sessions and this first 1 isn't at the bathroom, it's in my lil bro's room. This is just an attempt so it's not a full song or anything. Overjoyed as popularized by Stevie Wonder Chords: Intro: C B7 Bb7M B7 C B7 Bb7M A Stanza: D Bm Em - A Overtime, I've been building my castle of love D Bm E - F# Just for two, though you never knew you were the reason B F# I've gone much too far for you now to say Bm E A That I've got to throw my castle away D Bm Em - A Over dreams, I have
