Where everything is handmade…
There are days when you just have to do something regardless there are still tons of other things to do. Do you have this feeling too? In my case, that’s art journaling. I’ve been neglecting my art journal for a long time now. I had a goal supposedly to finish the entire journal last year …
This is the third part of the handmade stationery series for Letter Writing Month. This time, I’m going to share a simple postcard design with three ideas.

April is my favourite month of the year. Aside it’s my name, birth month, and officially summer, it’s also Letter Writing Month. If you’re not familiar with this yet, you can read about Letter Writing Month here. I used to write letters back when I was still young. And I remember how much joy it …
Hi everyone. It’s been a while since my last art journal post. As much as I want to spend time journaling, especially art journaling because this is where I play both with different materials and with my emotions. In a way, art journaling has become my outlet whenever I feel down and anxious. Maybe in …
Are you a bookworm? I used to be. And I like to collect bookmarks before. However, I haven’t been spending time with books for a long time now. But I still love collecting bookmarks. Anyway, as I was setting up my bullet journal, I had a need for a bookmark. I saw few scraps of …
I declared my 2020 and 2021 as my year of journaling. I’ve been doing it for quite some time already but never really focused on it. I realised since the pandemic as I was browsing my journals that journaling for me is not just jotting my thoughts but also a memory keeping. And it kept …
If you’ve been following my blog, you’d probably recall I did few Paper Flower Workshops in the previous years. It was one of my favourite workshops I made because I believe, I was the only one doing it at that time. It was also great because it was my first time to do a workshop …
At the start of the year, I always have this itch wanting to buy new planners, notebooks and other extras for my stash. One of those are washi tapes. I haven’t bought any washi tapes since 2 years ago (wow! Patting myself at the back, lol). Thanks to no travels and being a mama! Anyway, …
Hello, my dear friend. This is a backlog post for me. Since I became more active on my YouTube: April San Pedro, I find it difficult to blog, update my Instagram: @iam_artisan and on Pinterest simultaneously. Kudos to all those who are creating content consistently, because it is not easy. And it takes a lot …
Oh, hello there! How I missed you. It’s been a while since I last posted here. I’ve been neglecting my blog already. Truth be told, it’s just so hard keeping up with all my socials nowadays. Aside from the limited time I have, I’ve been focusing more on my YouTube channel: April San Pedro rather …
Hello, lovelies. I have another book to share with you. This might be new from my usual book reviews but it is still craft related. Although, I’ve been sharing and showing a lot of english craft books, I also have few collection of Japanese craft books. There was a time, I wanted to learn Nihongo …

Wow! It’s been a while since I shared a painting process. Two years ago to be exact. Yup! I’m a lousy blogger and a very bad painter. Because yes, it’s been this long since I truly went back on painting. I’m crossing fingers that I’m seriously back for good this time. Well, I’ve kind of …
Back when I was actively blogging, I like sharing the books I have and called it Wednesday Book Club. I love buying and collecting books. Mostly about crafts and other design books. I thought of sharing some of the books I have. I thought it might be helpful for you. Either you want to buy …
