Life and Love Travel - Part Un

"Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer".

It's hard to believe that i havent posted about this subject yet ! There's nothing more inspiring than flipping through your holiday pictures at the start of a week to remind you that if you work hard enough, you'll get a well deserved holiday to a new destination....

So in preparation of the next post , i edited a few of my Hipstamatic holiday pictures from 2011 and added some cool fonts. I won't tell you why just yet!
















Happy Travel

DIY Coffee Cup Sleeve for Brides

Happy New Year dear DIY bloggers and followers! 2013 will be BellesOfBeirut's 3d year and i started feeling the pressure to reinvent myself with new ideas and crafts , could there be a writer's block for crafty people? ? ? I'll just have to wait and see

With this post , im actually cheating because it's something i made for my wedding in 2012 but was so busy with Christmas celebrations that i forgot to share it with you! So here goes . . .

Most of my married friends advised that i should keep sipping coffee to help me overcome sleep deprivation symptoms but when i woke at 5 am full of energy and buzzing with excitement, my mother advised that i should go for Chamomile tea instead  :) Wether a caffeine drink or herbal tea, i didn't want to carry a cup , it was the Bride's cup , it has to be special. Its her wedding day!

What you'll need :

  • Coffee paper cup with a sleeve. The one you can get at any coffee chain like Starbucks  or Tim Hortons
  • Graphic or colored paper
  • Colored pen
  • Pencil , scissors and glue
