DIY : PAPER WALLET

craft 10:01:00 PM

Hi guys! Today, I'm going to teach you how to make a paper wallet! Very simple and easy to make so get your materials ready for this is fun! But first let me just show you this awesome book that I bought from the World Trade Christmas Bazaar last December. I got this for P200.00, lucky me! This is actually used for covering books but the designs are too lovely to waste! We will be using this book for this project. Don't worry you can also use other printed papers too but it is best to use this because it's water proof.

Prepare the ff. materials (Scissors, Fabric tape or Washi Tapes, Pen and Water proof paper or any colored/printed paper).

ONE : Choose desired paper design. I chose this vintage looking script paper.

TWO : Cut the paper in half (this is only if you have the same book cover as mine because it is folded in half so the actual size is double). In case you don't have this, 8x11 papers will do.

THREE : Fold it in half then fold each sides going to the center.

FOUR : Open it again and draw lines on the sides. As you can see I also drew a diamond shape on the third rectangle. Use a ruler or a business card for this to make the lines straight.

FIVE : Now, cut and fold the sides just like the image above. The third part with the diamond shape is where your cards will be stored.

SIX : Poke a hole on your diamond outline and start cutting from the inside.

Now you should have something like this!

Next...

SEVEN : Fold it back again like the third step.

EIGHT : Fold it again in half. CUT the white unfolded part.

NINE : Get your fabric tape and measure the sides where you'll be sticking it. Cut it and stick the half outside and the other half inside to secure the sides of your wallet.

TEN : And you're done!!! Simple and easy!! I told ya!

TIP : you can also stick some fabric tapes on the inside of your card holders to make it more cute!

TADAH!!!

What I like about this paper wallet is that they're slim, customizable and unique. You can also use it as a secret storage which you can insert on your book or planners. It's such a great disguise for thieves!BWAHAHAHA! Great idea *insert light bulb here*

Yay! Hope you enjoyed this tutorial, let me know if you worked on this project too!

NAIL ART TUTORIAL : MATTE BLACK + CROSS

beauty 1:02:00 AM

MATERIALS : RIMMEL BLACK NAIL POLISH | MISSA MATTE TOP COAT | CARONIA WHITE NAIL POLISH | NAIL FOIL

Hello ladies! Here's another easy nail art tutorial for you using matte coat and only white and black nail polish. But of course, to perfectly make the cross, you need to make a template. In this tutorial I used a nail foil (the one used in acrylic extensions) with grids so it's more easy to cut-out the cross pattern.

FIRST : Paint your nails black, of course you can use any kind of black nail polish but be sure it dries fast.

SECOND : Apply matte top coat.

THIRD : Cut a cross pattern on your nail foil.

FOURTH : Peel off the sticker and place it on your nails. Cut the top portion so it will stay flat and won't move if you accidentally bend your finger.

FIFTH : Start applying white nail polish on your nails! You can apply 2-3 coats then remove the template.

LASTLY : Apply matte top coat again.And you're done! Simple as that girls!! Enjoy!

Tutorial : Make your eyes look bigger

eyes 1:00:00 PM

Some of the things that fascinates me a lot are those of the eyes of Japanese Gyaru/Ulzzang girls. If you get to see them on the internet or Korean clothing lines from various online sellers, notice their eyes and they look really nice. For me it is, i just don't know what others think about that ,anyways, we all have different tastes and style preferences.

Photos grabbed from http://google.com

What I really like about bigger eyes is that, it gives more dramatic look and similar to a true doll eyes which for me is super cute. CUTE things really fascinates me A LOT, I mean anything, from those stationery papers that I get to collect when I was in grade school, stickers, cute packaging, pencils, character ballpens, puppies, etc. There are so many cute stuffs in the world that I can't resist.!!

So, enough with the cute stuffs, I don't really wear this kind of make-up all the time but in some occasions I do. If you are a person who doesn't want to put on falsies it's up to you, anyway you can still make your eyes bigger by applying mascara.

Here are the things you need for this tutorial :

1. Contact lens - not only gives more emphasis on the eyes, but also gives color and more doll like image. You can use any type of contact lenses but you need to use lenses that has a much bigger diameter like 14mm or 14.5mm. You don't want to look scary so don't try using diameters bigger than that because the white part on your eyes would not be seen anymore so, it's a little bit scary just like Lady Gaga's eyes on one of her music videos. Especially if you have Asian eyes or "Chinita" eyes.

2. Eyeshadow Palette - it is very important that you put on either brown or black eyeshadow depending on how you wanted to look. Black is more heavy than brown so, I recommend you use brown so that you will not look more like of a goth or emo.

2. Liquid/Pencil eyeliners - these two would shape how your eyes would be, it depends on what you prefer. There are various shapes and deigns to choose from on lining your liquid eyeliner, so you have to experiment and choose what is best.

3. White eyeliner - this is also one important make-up necessity that helps brighten your eyes and makes it more bigger when applied. Refer to the video tutorial on how to apply it.

4. False eyelashes and Falsies Adhesive - it's not really important but in creating a Gyaru like image, you need this. But as I said one technique also is putting on mascara if you don't know how to apply falsies or you just don't like putting falsies because you feel that it's OA. haha. It's okay to look different sometimes. Make a WOW impression!

Here are some of the photos I took after my video tutorial :

So, there! I hope I did well and I hope you get to try this also on your own , just experiment and experiment. There's no harm in trying :)

Thanks for watching !

xoxo

How to curl your hair naturally

beauty 2:43:00 AM

Because i'm so lazy to curl my hair, and gets very impatient every time I try, I discovered one solution for myself. Ways where you can flaunt your hair anytime and anywhere, and what's good about it is that it will not damage your hair and it's super duper easy!

I know everyone's familiar with "Buns" , almost everyone does it, but of course, for short hair you can't. But what I do is a little bit different from a Messy Bun that we know and what I really prefer is something messy and wavy but natural looking curls. So, if you want to know my secret...

Just follow these easy steps:

The secret for a perfect looking bun is to just keep the TWIST until the end.

Leave it for 30 mins and do the next step :

Tadaaaaaaaaaa!

Put on some ribbon or head band for a much kawaii look ! There you go ladies, try it on your own and tell me if it worked!
