{i’m so sorry i’ve been missing}

      i’ve been neglecting my blog BIG TIME.. i got busy being a flickr-HOLIC.. gosh its addictive. i’ve been uploading pictures like crazy there.. you could stop by there too if you like..

thought i’d share some collages:)

 

hello little red branch

I’d been seeing these gorgeous little painted branches circulate the design blogs and I thought I’d do my take on it. This little branch was found on a walk and painted red one night, followed by a little varnish spray paint to give it that shiny finish and now it moves around the house as it pleases!

{& how can i stand here with you, and not be moved by you}

i made these in the past few days =), was so much fun! its weird how much lyrics and quotes from books inspire me!

i know, i know, my collages have too many feet shots in them now(sigh), lol, cant do much about that i guess, drool! (haha)

{you tell me your blue skies fade to gray}

I’ve been wanting to make myself a journalling box; a box with all the stuff i need to make collages in my gluebook, so today while i waited for my tea, i finally did. and so sitting infront of the tv, with my husband diverting my attention every few minutes, i made these =).

 

PS: i know both of them are kind of sad, but i’ve been feeling a little blue lately, so this should make that a little better, i hope

{because i learned from my mistakes}

The past always creeps up on me. It holds a million memories. Memories that I don’t want to forget. Because for me, some of them were beautiful. I would relive those moments in a heartbeat. Then, the memories I wish were nightmares instead of reality. There is nothing I can do about those memories except neglect them. But, I don’t want to. I want to remember the worst. Because when I do come across a horrible day, I know there has been worse days. I know how to handle it now. Because I learned from my mistakes.

{some book quotes to share}

 

"its hard being left behind, its hard to be the one who stays",

-The Time Travellers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger.

“that day was here and then it was gone, but i remember it, so it exists here somewhere",

-The Feast of Love by Charles Baxtor.

“A human heart breaks harder when dropped from a greater height",

“An insult didn’t have to be shouted at you to make you bleed; a vow didn't have to be whispered to you to make you believe."

“What was the point of being able to forgive, when deep down, you both had to admit you’d never forget?"

“Just because a person didn't admit that something had changed didn’t mean it hadn’t happened."

-The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult.

“Thats one of the things i love about afghans. There’s always time for tea”

-Kabul Beauty School by Deborah Rodriguez

“It made no sense when he looked at me that way. Like i was the prize rather than the outrageously lucky winner."

“It was like fate was out to make me do everything i’d sworn i wouldn’t"

“..Not hope exactly, but maybe the desire to hope."

“The days were not long enough for me to get my fill of adoring my daughter, the nights did not have enough hours to satisfy my need for Edward"

“It seemed ridiculously ironic that the puzzle pieces would fit together just in time for all of them to be destroyed."

-Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer.

“How could he explain that any major decision had always felt to him like a kind of death, an irrevocable closing down of certain possibilities."

“From one second to the next, everything changed"

-The House on Fortune Street by Margot Livesay
