I've been seeing alot of polymer clay accessories around the net and i'm just itching to try a DIY on it. The only problem is, I haven't go any time to find polymer clay. Perhaps this recipe on how to make clay would help?
      

Tempting eh?

1: Just saw this trailer and I can't wait to watch it. I lurveeeee adventures and strong feminine characters

2: Notes I took down while browsing for instagram accounts to feature in this post

3: Valentine's is just round the corner! Ed and I did this for friends the last year, and it was absolute fun for everyone <3

4: The weather is getting warmer and I'm craving this

5: Kate Spade Saturday x New Balance - I can't decide which is my favourite!!

It was only today that I realised that I was following 563 people on instagram, which is ALOT, given than I only have 548 followers. It's pretty crazy, because I follow new accounts once every few days, and at this rate, I will hit 1K follows pretty soon. But I can't stop, because there are so many beautiful accounts out there, and here are some of my favourites:



and lastly, follow me on @melisasa !

1: Oh Happy Day! recently had a craft workshop and from my insta feed, it looks like quite alot of crafters attended it.

2: The Forecast Magazine looks pretty interesting. The content and writing isn't too heavy, nor too light (to pass of as non-intellectual). I think it's the perfect magazine for the collage student.

3: I went to Hong Kong on the second week of school, following my dad on his business trip to the Toy Expo. I had to skip one class but the expo was EPIC, with lots of new products and animations. Also, I got to try this delicious butter toasted bun that was topped with condensed milk. YUMS.

4: BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH. Need I say more?!

5: Chanced upon these beautiful ang baos which got me thinking about designing ang baos that would appeal more to the indie parents.

School has started and this means eating out alot more, and having less time to seek out healthier choices. So I thought, maybe it's time I made and brought my own food to school. But eating healthy doesn't mean no sweet or carbs. These are the tips I go by!

• Take everything in moderation (some sweet and carbs are allowed!)


• Always ensure that I have a 70-80% full tummy. Getting too hungry ain't gonna help!


• Eat small meals, more frequently (To gain metabolism)


• No food after 7pm! These are unlikely to be digest and will simply be stored as fats instead. Absolutely NO.

Here are some recipes I found on Pinterest, that I can't wait to try out!

Beef and broccoli rice 



apple toasted sandwich

Chia seed mango popsicle

Blueberry Yoghurt Cupcakes

Blueberry Ginger Coconut Smoothie

Roasted Honey Pear Crostini

Toasted Avocado Sandwich

Grapefruit and Strawberry Popsicles

Blueberry Chia Seeds Pudding

Are these the way to go? Let me know! :D

So I'm always making these for my friend's birthday at the last minute, and it will turn out rushed and horrible. Since I had the time a few days back, I decided to make a spare one, and post a tutorial on it at the same time! I tried to include as much details as possible, so I'm warning you, this can be a pretty long post!

PS: I got the crepe paper from Daiso (SGD$2) , and the Floral Wire from Spotlight (SGD$10+)
