So... you've got no idea what to do on Mother's day?


It's Mother's Day 2012! (well not until sunday that is);

Mother's day is a day to celebrate motherhood and the love of a mom.
altho yes we love her everyday of the year, but however on this special day
it's nice to take some time off everything else, and do something back for her.
haha, now if you don't know what to get for your mom this sunday (mother's day),
better grab some pictures, scissors and magnets!

I'm gonna teach you how to make your very own loving polaroid magnets for her.
filled with LOVEEEEE




I personally love love love taking photos. And always loved polaroid films and cams,
so this tutorial is a little cheat for some cute polaroid gifts.

P/s Another thing is that I noticed a lot of moms love to reminisce on old photos, 
it's such a hassle to bring out old photo albums from god knows where, So i thought this idea of putting 
cute small polaroid magnets on the fridge is a pretty sweet idea to do:)
p/p/s. I did sooo many, I'm giving my extra polaroid magnets to friends :)

so 1st step.....


write down what you and your mom love/share together!
it could be photo of you guys on a trip, or a memory.
Trust me, mom's really appreciate looking at old photos
don't forget to print out things that she loves!


so prepare: 
1. A mounting board/ cupboard, you can find this in any art store.
2. magnets! I got mine from a DIY store, you can get them in POPULAR book store too.
3. glue. PVC or UHU for refining edges.
4. brushes. one big one small to paint on the white paint, and to apply glue.
5. print out photos. 


If you're wondering how I did the Polaroid on photoshop,
 you can just download it right HERE
(MAY14, 2015 update: LINK FIXED!)

It's totally free. If you liked it and wanna say thanks, just give my FACBEOOK PAGE a like!

and I would be totally grateful for that :)




and here's the results, I've printed mine on different textures of papers.
cost me only about RM 10 ? :)

next is pretty easy, just follow the one, two, three ! :D




the cutting part is a bit annoiying,
cause cutting a mounting board with a blade is such pain in the fingers!
haha. you need to slide and slide and slide and slide x3. lols.
 but i'm very excited at how CUTE they turn out to be! :)
tiny and small cute things makes my inner girly heart screams! x)


being quite a perfectionist sometimes, i decide i wanted to paint the sides white.
 I find no reason to put an excuse cause you're doing this for someone you love.
and that someone happen to went tru terrible pain just to put you in this world.
I feel really bless having a mom to take care over me, whenever i'm in need, she's there.
When i was younger i used to complain, "Why is she not buying enough clothes for me?!"
but some how i came to learn to be thankful that i actually HAVE a mom.

mommy i love you! :D i'm making these magnets with all my heart! haha!

(End result)

posting a little bit of outfit post today.


a lil eye make up i did today to go out.
haha, yea, it's pretty too much,
