DIY: Build A Bed

This is by far the DIY bed tutorial that I found on Youtube that uses less wood. The parts of the bed are quite complicated. But, if you can have your hardware store or local carpenter shop do the pre-cut for you, it should be easy putting the pieces together.

The measurements are as follows:

Headboard:
1- 2x8 @ 57"
2- 2x6's @ 57"
2- 2x4's @ 45"
2- 2x4's @ 12.5"
2- 2x4's @ about 25.5" (cut them after assembly)


Foot of bed:
1- 2x8 @ 57"
2- 2x4's @ 19.5"
2- 2x4's @ 12.5"


Side Rails:
2- 2x8's @ 86"
2- 2x2's @ about 79" (cut them after assembly)

Mattress supports:
5- 1x10's @ about 60" (cut them after assembly)


DIY: Wood + Iron Table

Instead of planks, I would just buy one piece of 3/4 inch thick of plywood for the dining table. It's easier especially if you don't have the tools. The PVC pipes would be a lot less expensive but not durable for a dining set piece. An office desk, maybe.


DIY: Build Industrial Style Closet

This piece is great if you have space. I can see myself using this type of closet in a rental. The only piece that I find difficult in this project is the drilling of the hole. Instead of drilling, I would nail the pipes to the sides with a flange attached on both ends. And, instead of iron pipes, I would use PVC pipes and spray painted white.


DIY: Build A Pallet Couch

This project could be done better but you get the gist of how it's made. I love the L-Shape sofa design, that they sanded the wood and painted it white. They could cut the sides of the pallet straight to avoid accidents. The backrest foam could be done better, too. Make it into one piece foam like the seat.


DIY: Adjustable Height Sitting or Standing Desk

A new take on interior design. Go industrial in your home office. The video is not much of a tutorial but you get the idea. You don't have to make the table adjustable if you want an easy project.

I have been blogging since Xanga, LiveJournal, Multiply and Friendster was popular. It was only in 2007, meeting new friends who are passionate bloggers, when I started blogging properly.


In this digital age, I think everybody should own their own DotCom. Build your own digital asset including your social media pages.

Not sure how to start your own blog or DotCom?

This first video shares tips when starting a blog.

My favorite blogger and now a Youtuber also shares How-To articles and videos 
on starting your own blog. Check out her entire Youtube channel. It's rich with helpful information from starting to maintaining your blog.

Calligraphy and lettering are so popular these days. I remember my older brother, back when he was in Highschool, making his lettering projects.


I don't want to try how to do lettering or calligraphy properly but I'd rather rely on own handwriting or penmanship. But, it does not hurt to be writing with such beautiful pens.


M&G Signme Aquarelle Brush 12 Colors Pens are available at SM Department Store at their School Supplies section for only Php 299.75 per pack.


The pens come in double ended tips, a brush and fine tip. The colors available are as seen in the photos.


Are you into calligraphy? What pens do you recommend? Are you into lettering, too? Can you recommend the best How-to guide book for beginners? Leave them in the comments below. 
Thank you.

I have been keeping a #bookstagram account for more than a year. The great thing about this bookish community is the recommendation you get from readers all over the world.



There are generous Instagrammers who set up contests in order to increase followers. I was lucky to have won three times since I've kept this bookish account. The latest was winning the planner goodies. This must be a sign for me to join the bandwagon of creative planning.

After a dealing with a high class thief, IG bogus seller in the last 3 weeks, I finally have some good news. Thank you for your generosity @stopnjotcrafts ! I'll surely enjoy this. Been looking for a gold planner jacket. #crafty #planner #giveaway #winner #photooftheday #stopnjot5k #igersworldwide

A month later, I received my freebies from StopNJotCrafts in the mail. It took me awhile to post and update my social to share my free stuff. Also, please support StopNJotCrafts. They are also on Etsy. They sell some really cool stuff thus making planning so much fun.

Thank you @stopnjotcrafts for your #giveaway . I got the package in April and just didn't update my #bookstagram . I loved all of it. Thanks for your generosity and all the best. #planner #plannercommunity #plannerlove #crafts #craft #art #creative #picoftheday #igersworldwide

There are a few things influencers need. In this post, you will know how to make these things from scratch. Time to flex those creative fingers.



1. Business Cards. Bloggers and influencers are the new media. It's good to have business cards handy so that opportunities will come your way. Hand them out during events. Businesses or companies can easily get in touch with you in the future.


2. Pretty Backdrop. A marble backdrop is on trend. It's costly to buy marble furniture. Unless your kitchen counter top is already in marble finish, great for you. Maybe, a DIY faux fur rug project instead?



3. Planner Inserts. Yes, it is indeed the digital age and the more reason to go paperless. But, there are like creatives out there who still rely on writing things down. High five!



I hope this post inspires you to get creative, blogger or not. Let me know what other DIY projects you have in mind. Thanks for reading.
