Since my budget is really tight, I thought gifts made out of scrap or old things would be a great idea. I checked the cabinets one by one and saw some popsicle sticks which were left overs from Deye’s projects last year, beads that she recently got from her birthday, and some were the not- so-paid-attention “anik-anik” hiding in the drawers.
I first cut some hearts out of an art paper, and let Deye stick them on the Oslo papers which were also from last year’s project. That way she also had a good writing exercise on a Sunday.
They actually turned out so well and I am thinking of making more photo frames out of these popsicle sticks for the accumulated photos that we’ve got in the house so far.

I am a full-time home-based Marketing Manager by day, 24/7 Mom, and a Blogger/Content Creator in my spare time. Proud mom to 2 girls and 1 boy, Derelle, Erchelle, and Elric.
I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and have to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
Authoring and managing this personal blog developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture.
A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
