more embroidery



made more embroidery.

loved every minute of it. :)

it's always amazing how the little iron on bling gems transfer the whole thing to something very much more fancy than a bunch of simple stitches. :)

Dreaming.Or not.

i recently got some land to my name.On my mom's island..In hopes that we get to live there some day.it's a little scary because i don't still consider myself old enough to really own anything.And i have this weird thing that where i believe that if i own anything,i am tied down by it and its not a feeling i like.
But these things,got me thinking,it won't be such a a bad thing to have a place of our own,a place we own,a place we can call our own. :)

A fence.Who doesn't like a fence?And with the splashes of color..I see this in my dreams now..


What if this is how the house looks like?(I've such little girl taste.)



                                                            Have tea here..Or read? :D


   

                                     Aah this porch would be lovely in the quiet of the morning.
I would love to have a garden.there is no space enough for a garden in the house we live now.there isnt no sunny spot to keep a pot either.or for few herb plants.i would like that.great things about living in the city. :/

How nice it would be to grow my own herbs!or even little veggies..maybe..i dont even know how green my thumb is yet,if it is at all.i sure hope it is.

And then have some more tea.And chat.

This is nothing compared for the thousands of images i've saved over the time.of dreams such as this.
Can you tell that im avoiding getting my hopes and dreams too up?
Is that a bad thing?
I try not to dream too much and live in the moment. for too much of dreaming can make a person forget to live and even make him miserable.no need to waste so much time and thinking and worrying and no need to sigh for a future that we do not know anything of yet. (i do not mean this in a negative way.)

Always thankful insha Allaah.And happy. :D

But aaaah, dreams.

Mostly pinterest you YOU YOUUU!!!

No Titles Does This Post Deserve.

You know sometimes how it feels like when you are so sorry that you just cannot find the words to apologize and so end up ignoring the whole thing because you feel so guilty?well,thats how i feel about how i have neglected my blog since my vacation.its been 10 months.
things have happened since I've been here last.my toddler has weaned,she has started preschool,making friends of her own,developing a beautiful personality of her very own,my beautiful child masha Allah.last time i was here,i was complaining about all the time she demands from me.Now she sleeps on her own,her tantrums less,negotiating more.

And i started a small cupcake business,which didn't really work out,timing wasn't very good,and i think i eat way too many cupcakes so I've put it on hold.
But it seems i'm baking every other week,a big batch of cupcakes and cookies, or a double layered frosted cake for someone or another :D.

I also started my own Facebook page to display my handmade stuff.Not very sure where its going yet,but i'd like for it to become a small business.

I've also started embroidering and embellishing black abayas.
I've sold about 12 of these embroidered work.This is my latest one.The one i love most yet! :D


if i try uploading pics of all the stuff I've done in the past 10 months,i wont be sleeping tonight.And we can't have that.
Also i'm just way too lazy.I will try to keep you, my dear blog,updated.hows once every six months sound?
:D

I shall be back soon!

Finally here.


My shoes love the beach too.
I am quite absent vacationing.Mostly trying.I overlooked the fact that being a mommy also means that you really don't get vacation anywhere anyhow. :)

The weather has been stormy and cloudy and gray and rainy and all in all,very lovely.Give me a few days here and there to enjoy the sun and im a happy girl.

Hubby,me and Noora got wet in the rain today.On purpose.And it was AWESOME! :D Noora was shivering after a while,teeth chattering,and yet she insisted that she wanted to stay out playing in the rain,and that she did,till it stopped.I wonder where she got her love of rain from. ;)

We don't have internet access readily as we do in Mal'e.I thought i would miss it,but surprisingly enough,i don't.

Life is simpler here.
Pots and pans outside a kitchen

The air is crispier.cooler.its cleaner too.
a cousin of mine,on a palm tree!
The kids find entertainment on their own..they don't need the TVs and the video games..I can only hope that the techno stuff that is ruining the younger generations will stay out as long as possible..


passion fruit
Tree and vines grow here,and there is soil here,actual,soil!we have none in Mal'e anymore,with the exception of a very few homes..There is no space to grow anything in Mal'e.Its all tall buildings everywhere..Too many of them if you ask me.I cannot imagine how great it will be to grow and pick your own fruit!!!This is one of my greatest wishes..to one day be able to grow something..herbs,fruits or veggies..even my own chillies..oh how nice that would be..

Be back with more soon! :)
