One of the reasons why I went on a brief hiatus in May was due to a ‘secret project’ I was embarking on – the dream of becoming a seamstress. My Sewing Dream It is nothing new as I’ve always enjoyed sewing pouches with my dream brand, ‘Deenise Glitz’ emblazoned on them. As a kid, I dreamt of being a fashion designer because it was cool to design dresses and clothes back then. But now, I realised it was way cooler to create your own clothes from scratch. Thus, this dream is nothing new to me. It just happens that the time was right and the Facebook ads on basic…

iHerb Beauty Haul It’s been quite a while ever since I bought stuff on iHerb. Recently, I found my beauty supplies on low so I headed over to iHerb to do some online beauty shopping.

Flower Care with Floraison Studio
Flower Care For my previous bouquets, my mother is usually the one to trim the flowers and change the water. But this time, I decided to do it myself just to find out which types of flowers last longer and how much time it takes to maintain the flowers each day.

Thankfully, Floraison uses minimal paper wrappings and these wrappings, including the strings, are reusable. The base of the flower stalks are usually wrapped with damp cotton wool and are secured with a plastic wrap and some scotch tape. To remove…
