Friday Favorites no. 035 | links from the week

29 August 2014

Grateful for this post.
Especially love Marcy’s spreads for Studio Calico this month.
Needing to try these ways to cure wanderlust.
On starting a project.
Possibly the best invention ever?
Remembering this for my next brainstorm session.

Last week was so, so tough. But this week turned out to be much better. I guess sometimes you need to hit the bottom before going up, right? I’m still adjusting to having a full term of classes and learning the act of balancing work + play. But at least I have plans this weekend, so here’s to a stress-free weekend!

I hope you have a good one, xx.

I hope your Friday is fabulous x.

This article about five ways to stay healthy despite a crazy busy stressful schedule.

Not sure how I didn’t see this earlier, but I love these New Rules of a Creator’s Life.

Friday Favorites no. 016 // links from the week

Popping by to share a random mix of links that I spotted this week:

This social media article really got me thinking.
And this article found me guilty – I really need to cultivate these habits for being punctual!
I really like these new stamps by Ann-Marie.
These cookies and cream cookies make me hungry!
Also, inspired what Sasha Farina did in this layout.
And by Amanda’s new Be Crafty blog.
I really want these new Wanderlust, Lemon Lush, and Essentials collections from Studio Calico.
I’m planning to print these note cards. Just because.

So snuggle up with a hot cuppa and click away!

I’ll be off to celebrate my busy Chinese New Year weekend (:

Friday Favorite no. 015 // a silent message

13 September 2013

I came across this video this week and knew immediately that I wanted to share it with you guys for Friday Favorites today. I’m definitely guilty of spending too much time on my smartphone, and end up ignoring the people around me. Such a good, good reminder to put aside technology and just enjoy being in the moment. Too many memories get lost because we’re too busy trying to stay connected.

I have no idea what this Thai company does but they have an amazing message.

This weekend, I’m choosing to put aside my smartphone to savor the moments + memories with those I’m with.

Happy Friday!
