Weekend Love + Finding Happiness in The Little Things
Hiya! I’m in a good mood! I’m really looking forward to this weekend. I’m teaching a Green Living workshop early Saturday morning and I get such a rush as I prepare, gathering my ingredients and recipes to demonstrate.

A brilliant option for party decorations and invitations, and unlike store bought party packs, you don’t end up with a bunch of extra waste – 10 extra invitations and party hats that you never…

Ikea Hacking at home! Join the Mini Maker Faire!
We all have that one piece of furniture that no longer seems to fit in. You bought it at a time when you had a need, and sometimes those needs change. You may be tempted to walk it down to the curbside for the karang guni man, and in the name of decluttering and simplifying our lives, this might…

Muji Love
My love for Muji runs deep. I honestly like to be in the store and pretend it’s my house…I’m not even joking. What I love is that they incorporate eco-friendly pieces that have an effortless and simple aesthetic. It’s not about shouting out the green message, it’s simply thoughtful and considerate design…and that’s what Muji does brilliantly.…
