DIY: Crystal Vine Design

I was inspired by Sis Che's creativity that's why I tried to create a simple design for my candle.It's my first time and my only tool is the ordinary long nose you can find in a hardware store. I bought my beads from Carolina's shop at Market Market. I went there without the knowledge which type of wire to use and the beads. I accidentally bought 2 Swarovski bead necklaces for Php100 each and a seed bead for Php35. The wire costs Php60 per 1 roll.

My first crystal vine.

Isn't it cute? Ahahaha! If you take a closer look, you'll see that the twisted wires didn't look good at all.

I managed to twist the wires using my bare hands..it's painful and difficult but it's all worth it.

This is Mommy Jen's version. She taught me how to twist the wires using a flat nose flier. She even lend me her tools for accessory making. Sweet!

By the way, please help me decide

which wire color to use for a white candle design.

Which is more pretty, the one with silver wire or gold wire?

Cheers,

The Wedding Church

Finally,after several scouting, we already have a church - the Archdiocesan Shrine of Jesus, The Way, The Truth & The Life located near SMX of Mall of Asia in Pasay City. Thanks to my dear friend Duday for helping me out. It was so hard to find a slot for December 11. Most of the churches we visited including this church were fully booked. Last February 26, 2011, I called the Shrine if there's an available slot and there was, the date is December 17. We went back to pencil book the date and we were so lucky that there's an available slot for December 11 so we booked it on the spot. I'm happy w e have met the two criteria i mentioned on my previous post. photo images credits to: http://shotnroll.com/2009/08/comin-home/ We went back to the church last March 4, 2011 for the reservation payment.We paid a 50% of the total contract price of the church which amounts to Php12,500, non-refundable. So no backing out.. ahahaha! The church assistant also d...

Angry Birds Level 5-17 Cleared!!!!

Another level cleared.. wooooot! This level is much easier. You just need to target the first porky. After hitting it, you must aim to hit the 2 woods in the middle. See below photo.. Hope my idea helps. Enjoy playing angry birds! :) Cheers,

Movie Night: Rio in 3D

I had fun watching Rio with my teammates at Greenbelt 3 a while ago. The movie is only available in 3D. It cost Php300 per head. I thought Rio is the name of the blue macaw bird but it's not. Rio is taken from Rio de Janeiro a place from Brazil. The film Rio is a comedy/adventure/ love story between two rare macaw birds. Blu is the main character, who lives with Linda (his master) at Minnesota. Blu believes that he is the last of his kind. The adventure starts when Blu and Linda flew to Brazil to meet the other macaw bird named Jewel. Don't worry, I am not going to tell the story. My short review for this movie, Rio is a heartwarming movie with bright/colorful characters in a beautiful settings of Brazil's rain forests. This is w orth watching in 3D. Cheers,
