DIY from wood ice cream sticks

Hey guys!

Forgive me if i have used wrong names for things, but i just don't know how they actually calls, but hope the main meaning you will understand.

So this is project which i did few weeks ago, after i went to hobbycraft store and bought these ice cream sticks.

Basically all what you need to have is those woody ice sticks and PVA glue. Just put together flat few sticks to make the bottoms and then  just make shape which you want. You can make the same how i made or you can make with 5 or 6 corners.

Exactly this one i made with one pack of these sticks so it is not so high how i wanted, but if you get 2 or 3 pack you can make place for your pens, pencils, lipstick. Almost anything what you want to put inside.

Hope you enjoy, and if you have any question just leave a comment

Crochet Baby jacket :)

Hi guys.....

This is one of my now days projects. It was SOOOO easy to make. Unfortunately its not finished yet, but all what i need to do is to to pom poms on closing places. Other wise its ready.

Does not it looks sooo cute this is a lit bit bigger than pattern was, but i made bigger because my daughter is 10 and a half month old, but kinda small baby so this fits her perfectly.

If you are interested to make video or blog step by step how i made this just leave a comment, and i will make blog or video as soon as i can. I definitely i will update picture with FINISH FINISH result.

I am thinking to make really easy bowl. This time i will try to make pictures already in process, and then i will show you the process and result of my work.

Just so you know i will try to update with my knitting, crocheting and DIY things, so if you have any special request just let me know. I will try to make for you and show you how to do your self.


See you soon and stay positive :)

Im back!

Hi everyone. I am back in my blog. I think i have tried to write about everything, but nothing have been successful enough for me. So i will start to write about my everyday life. How i get on with all home things, as i am not working for now, how i deal with my baby girl Aisha who is 10 month old now. Actually i  will just try to tell you guys everything whats in my heart. Hope you will like it and leave some tips, comments or just will enjoy my blog.

So if you want to know more about me, then my name is Elina. I am 20 years old and i am already married for a year with my lovely husband, who is the best man in the world. In this year and half since we started to date, he always have my back. He always support me and help me if he can. Even now when few month ago i made really big debt under my real name, he is still behind my back support me, cheer me up and just is a good husband. If you are interested how i got big debt, i just simply got scammed. I trusted person who i even did not know, and got scammed, so know i need to deal with that. But anyway. I have lovely 10 month old daughter, and her name is Aisha, as i wrote before. She is really lovely, cute baby girl, but she is quit a challenge as well. She cries a lot, move from one place to another in seconds, and just try to taste everything which she can reach and grab.

About myself, i am living in Manchester with my husband and daughter. I am studying AAT Level 2 in accounting in Stockport college. I love accounting, and hope after this level i will be able to find job in this job sector as well. So for now, i am home stayed mom.

In this new way of blog i will write my feelings, my ups and downs, my DIY projects which i will try to do as christmas is coming up as well, and simply i will try to make some easy things which can make your/my home more beautiful.

So stay with me for my next blog, hope it will be soon, because i have made already few things which i would love to show you. These things are easy to make, don't cost a lot and looks nice. Unfortunately because they already are ready i will just put some pictures and just tell you step by step how to do that and where you can get your supplies if you live in manchester or england.

Have a great day, and leave some comments if you have any request of any topic which you would love me to talk about, or if you just want to know something more about me :)


See yaa later :)

First baby word

Hi,

Ofcaurse im not really sure if it counts or no, but from yesterday she started to say da-da-da-da... Its sounds so cool from her....

Few days ago we bought jumper as well, because she is crazy for jumping... Now i can relax and she can just  enjoy jumping.


I have applied for some English and math courses as well, need to start after one week, exactly on that day when Ramadan starts... I think that will be so hard... Because this will be my first Ramadan, and all day need to sped at school... fingers crossed, that i will be able to finish and handle all month.

And we are talking still about my baby girl i started to look at daycare or nursery, and i found one really good one, which i really like, but its a lit bit expensive. Need to talk with my lovely husband can we afford, but first i definitely need find job and need to at my wages. then we can think about nursery... but i definitely need to think about nursery's, because i don't have anyone who could look after here, but i need to go back to work...



Ok if you are from UK tell me your expirience about going back to work, how you find right nursery, or who is looking after your little one. Talk with you in my next one :)

Realy goood face mask

I tried out about week ago and the feeling after the mask was so amazing. So what you need for this face mask:
1) 2 table spoons of oats
2) 1 table spoon of milk
3) 1 table spoon of honey (soft one would be ideal)

just mix everything and put on your face, you can use for neck aswell.

After just leave for about 10 - 15 minutes and just washed off..



Hope you will enjoy...

Let me know how it worked for you, and any your suggestions :)

Help on and why blogging Tips

1. Don’t fight with technology. I did not know how to setup a blog so I just paid someone to do it for around £300. I wanted to learn everything about designing and making blogs so I studied on how to do it, hours and hours it took. looking back I would say that unless you have hours to learn how to  design and set up a blog just pay  for someone to get this done for you around £50 and its “good enough” until you start getting leads and sales and can afford to make it look better. Need some help ask me about setting up your blog.

2. Personal branding is key. “Blogging” is meant to be from a single source and good bloggers have a personality online. Make sure you use pictures of you and possibly your family and adventures. People don’t want to follow a clever company logo; they want to know a real human operates the blog. It has been said in direct sales that people don’t join companies, they join people. The problem that you have with this is old school direct sales will tell you that personal branding is not easily duplicated. True. But the truth is, most things are not easy to duplicate even if the concept sounds like it is. Why? Because us human beings are involved and unless someone is passionate about what they are doing, they are unlikely to do it.

3. Stop concentrating on “what you know” and instead look at the problems and needs of your target market. What do they struggle with, what do they get frustrated with, and what is their pain? Then, learn ways to help those problems. When it comes to writing blog content, MOST of my posts come from helping people in my team.

4. Another great way of writing blog content is to continually look at what you are learning and simply reteach it if suitable for those you are trying to attract to you. They can be tips and tricks you have learned in books, webinars, videos, etc.

At the end of the day we write blogs to make money by  giving value to our readers so we get leads or sales.  In order to get more, you have to give more, and by providing prospects free useful information I can attract them to me, develop a relationship and eventually they will sell themselves on my product or opportunity. This concept is called Magnetic Sponsoring
