Les Cherubins

Friday I went to the holiday bazar at the Grand Hyatt and met up with my friend Dominika Bozic.

She has a blog, Les Cherubins. She is a completely utterly amazing artist. I go to see her almost every single time a bazar is going on here in Doha (so that means a lot). This time, I bought this ADORABLE THE MOST INCREDIBLY ADORABLE angel painting, and these super cute cards that I hung around my room! Her station was full of amazing paintings and other things like brooches! The paintings that are in the picture of me and her are also all printed out in the little cards. Sometimes, I just stare at them and think, Wow! How the heck do you paint that! Sorry I'm not posting, but I need to get the supplies needed in order to do it and that's gonna take a while :).
How did she do that? It's so amazing it's not even funny!!

Glitter Pumpkins!

Happy Halloween! I hope everyone had a great time on thursday! This project was delayed a little because we couldn't find the right materials for it. As you probably guessed, we will be making glitter pumpkins! These are sooooo cute and adorable! I got this project from Martha Stewart, love her! Watch her video if you are interested, she explains everything way better than me. To do this you'll need white glue (that dries clear), glitter, and a small pumpkin. I got my glitter from Jarir Bookstore, and I was amazed they actually had this shade! Perfect color!
So then, all you got to do is get some glue and, with a paint brush, spread glue over half the pumpkin.
Then get your glitter and sprinkle it all over the pumpkin. Repeat process with the other side. Wait for it to dry and ta-da! It's adorable! Happy late halloween!
