A NEW START


Hello there you lovely people!

How's it going? To start things off, I apologise for my absence, with promises of cupcakes for all of you! To say July has been not-so-great would be an understatement. It was one month that I was very happy to say goodbye to. It was intense, there were a lot of changes and a lot of growing pains that I’m still getting used to. I had to bid goodbye to a good friend/co-worker of mine. Those who know me know that I’m pathetic when it comes to saying byes. I'm the one that awkwardly pats on the back and then turns around and forgets about the situation.

There were changes, new ideas I had to get used to. My blogging and writing and photographing inspiration had managed to play hide and seek with me. It hurt seeing the lists of posts I wanted to do, without one check next to it. I felt under-confident and all the other pessimistic emotions one can round up.

I was tired. To say the least. It was as if hope had picked me up and dropped me on the moon and then gently but firmly pushed me down. More changes and more unknown things to get used to.

Things are slowly getting back on track now. It's my birthday month after all! How can they not be. These morbid and sad emotions are locked away in a chest at the bottom of the ocean and without using lots of metaphors I can say I am better now! :) Well obviously since the streams of posts shall start again and I have lots of catching up to do! New ideas, new places to visit, new fashion and interior trends to review.

So stay tuned and see you again. – mana

MAKE IT | SPRAY PAINTED JAR CANDLES (part 02)

In a previous post , we made beautiful spray painted heart jars. Here is part two of the tutorial where I turn those same jars into decadent smelling candles. You need: Candle wax of your choice Candle wick Mason Jar (Follow the tutorial here ) Fragrance Oil  Before you begin, be sure you have the appropriate type and size of the wick. If your jar is wide, make sure wick is wide enough in diameter to burn optimally. And, if its narrow and long, make sure the length of the wick is sufficient enough.  Measure out the amount of wax needed. For this project, I melted the wax in a make-shift double boiler made from two metal containers—one small and one large. Fill water in the large container. Put the wax in the smaller container and place it in the larger one. Melt the wax on low to medium-low heat. Never leave melting wax unattended! While the wax is melting, secure your wick to the bottom of your mason jar. Dip the end in the melting wax and a...

THE MIXTAPE PROJECT / 01

I've been working on this series idea for a while now and finally it's here! The Mixtape Project, a series to document interesting people, their music choices and their personal quirk. Here is my first guest for today... MAYANK KUMAR / DELHI If you could pick one, which superhero would you be?  I don't really follow the superhero concept but if I had to, I guess i'd pick Batman. That's simply because of his sharp mind and his ability to solve humongous issues with just his mere intellect. What would your DJ name be?  Can't imagine myself behind a console wearing earphones bigger than my face. But I guess 'Max' would do? Or just M? What's your favourite joke?  A jealous haryanavi man opened his own momos shop right next to the famous 'Yo! China' and named it 'Yo! Bhi China'. What's the weirdest nickname people call you? Mickey. My first birthday cake had a Mickey Mouse on it. And that's where the name ...
