Hello there friends! Last 10th of November 2024, I felt myself again by simply being with my people. After how many years, technically since I became a Mama (that’s almost 6 years now) I finally had the courage again to do creative activities with other people. And boy! That really felt so good. This was …

These are all about what’s happening in my life right now…
15year Anniversary
And just like that… we are now 15 years! Woohoo! I know, it’s been slow the past few years since I became a mama. I have been on-and-off in the business. Especially this year when I was supposed to focus on motherhood still. Had it been we didn’t lose our second baby, Noah, early this …
Artisan Paperie Creative Team Call
Hello, you! I am looking for creative people who want to join Artisan Paperie‘s creative team. What’s a creative team you asked? Well… it’s a group of talented and skillful people, in this case, a crafter or maker, who supports a brand by creating a project as output using my products. To make it simple, …
Artisan Paperie’s 14year Anniversary
Wow! It’s been ages since my last post! I can’t believe how time flies! On that same note, I cannot believe I’ll celebrate 14 years in creativity already. Most of you, especially if you’ve been following this blog (Oh my goodness! I want to hug you!) because you know how long this blog has been. …
Studio Vlog No. 33 | Making of the Anniversary Journaling Kit
If you’ve been following me along on Instagram @iam_artisan or here in my blog, I celebrated Artisan Paperie‘s 12th year Anniversary last July 8. Every time I get a chance, I try to celebrate it with something creative. Either a free workshop or something creative. This year, since we still cannot do any gatherings yet, …
Artisan Paperie’s 12th Anniversary + Journaling Kit and Creative Journaling Workshop
It’s that time again, my dear friends! We are celebrating, Artisan Paperie‘s anniversary, woohoo! And I’ve been slacking for a long time because my last activity was still last 8th anniversary. Now, we are on to our 12th year! Wow! I can’t believe it! 12 years of creativity, is a whole lot of a great …
Review: Pilot Kakuno Fountain Pen
Pens are one my favourite things to collect. I remember when I was younger, I used to collect cute pens from Disneyland, Kikki.k and other cute and fancy pens that I can find during our travels. This is one of my weaknesses. I asked friends to buy me pens whenever they travel too. And I …
Artisan Paperie’s Pandagdag No.402 Traveler’s Notebook Refill Launch
Last May 20, I launched another version of my very own Artisan Paperie Traveler’s Notebook refill. My very first Pandagdag traveler’s notebook refill was still last 2017. Since then, I wasn’t able to add another journal in my product line and less journaling too. Boo, for me! Anyway, since the pandemic started, priorities have changed …
Just checking in and a Sunday Instagram round-up
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 …
Paint With Me: Silhouette | I Found My Word For 2020
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 …
Planner Set-up: May 2020
I know… I know… we don’t have much to-do lists except for our house chores or basic errands. Perhaps, most of our planners are empty for now since March. But it just feels so good to be with stationery stash, don’t you think so? To use our stickers, washi tapes and colored pens. Quarantine or …
Studio Vlog 15 | Lettering On Canvas, Message Banner
I had a slow week. Nothing much happening in the studio and shop, Artisan Paperie. It’s also a steady week for Yellow Hauz so just my usual weekly routine was happening. Although, I had a little project to make. A very good friend of mine, Ena commissioned me to do a canvas lettering for her …
Studio Vlog 14 | Curating Watercolor Kit For A Birthday Girl
If there’s one thing I like apart from crafting and painting, it’s curating a kit. This is my favourite part whenever I have workshops. I really enjoy curating anything for crafting or painting. And I’m so happy some of my friends and people who knows me entrusted me to curate kits for them. Last month, …
Studio Vlog 13 | Preparing For Our Wedding
Hi again. I’ve already shared this Studio Vlog 13 on YouTube channel: April San Pedro few weeks ago. I was supposed to blog about it the same time I uploaded it but you know… limited and unmanaged time. Anyway, with this vlog, I talked about our wedding preparation. Wacky and I already got married last …
DIY Woodland Theme Party
It’s been a while since my last DIY. Moreover, for a party. The last time I can remember was when I was still 29. After that, I spent most of my birthdays somewhere else. Admittedly, I am very lazy when it comes to parties. But I guess, having a baby pushes me to be not …
