Easy Marshmallow Pops

January 6, 2015 By Chie

easy marshmallow pops how to by vivat veritasHappy New Year! You can tell that I’m getting old since I went to bed at 10:30pm on New Year Eve’s. I used to stay up all night for the holiday but I couldn’t care less now. I need my 8 hours of sleep!

Right before the New Year, I had some girl friends over for dinner. It was fun. For desert, I made “marshmallow pops”. They are super easy to make and they look fun. Kiko had a great time making these with me.

What you need: Wooden sticks, marshmallows, chocolate and chocolate sprinkles.
1. Put 2-3 marshmallow on a wooden stick.
2. Melt a chocolate.
3. Dip the top of the marshmallow on the melting chocolate and sprinkle some chocolate sprinkles.
4. Wait until they are cool. Serve with hot chocolate.
I think this pops would be so cute for a little girl’s party!
うちでやった女子会兼忘年会のデザート用に、マシュマロポップスを作りました。
竹串にマシュマロを刺して、溶けたチョコにつけ、チョコチップなどで飾るだけ♪
ホットミルクやココアに入れて、少し溶かしてから食べるのがおすすめです。

2014 in Review

December 31, 2014 By Chie

Today is the last day of 2014! This year has passed quickly and was a full of fun activities. I officially registered my business in the beginning of the year and decided to focus mainly on weddings. It was a lot of work but I had  great fun and learned a lot. I blogged less due to lack of time, but I am hoping to be able to post twice a week in the 2015. Thank you so much for those who participated in the blog survey. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s responses and it has helped me greatly already. I appreciate everyone’s support <3

Wedding dresses
Here are some of the wedding dresses I made this year.

Clothes I made for myself
Here is around up of what I’ve made for myself this year. There are some items that did not make to blog but have been my favorites nonetheless. Hopefully I can take pictures of them soon. I made bunch of tops, including Grainline Studio Archer button ups (made four in total!) but no skirt or pants. Andy’s grandmother bought me Ginger jeans pattern from Closet Case Files for Christmas, so it will be my first sewing project for the year 2015.

Photoshoots
I did a several photoshoots this year but most of them did not end up on the blog, mostly because I did not have time to sort through the photos. I posted under the “2014 Lookbook”, so you can check them out here if you are interested. I contributed as a wardrobe stylist for a promotional video shoot by students at Tokyo Visual Arts. It was shown in a gallery in Shibuya, and the link to the video is here.
Another highlight is that I participated in a fashion show for the first time! It was very exciting. My blog post is here.

Easy DIYs
I love in-between projects. I can get an instant satisfaction out of easy DIYs. Here are some I’ve done this year.

Trips
I had a chance to visit Ho Chi Min City for our 7th year wedding anniversary and Philadelphia, D.C., NY and Hawaii. I much prefer to spend money on travel than buying things.

Personal + Family
My daughter turned three and we started to foster care a ten year old girl. Due to her circumstances, our foster daughter only comes once every three weeks now and mainly lives in a group home, but we are excited to see how this will develop.

Weekend Decoupage Project & End of Year Survey

December 29, 2014 By Chie

decoupage with flyingtiger paper

Merry belated Christmas! Hope everyone had a nice and relaxing holiday. We had a relaxed time with family as we went back to my parents’ house. It was nice to get some extra days of late mornings, as I get up at 5am on regular work days.

I was introduced to this cute zakka shop called Flying Tiger Copenhagen a few months ago and it has become my favorite place to source some craft items since. I bought these pretty papers from them during my last visit. I decided to use them to decorate empty boxes (decoupage) to give it a new life. I had a few jewelry boxes from Shopbop, which needed a little make over. I bought Mod Podge in Hawaii this October (the photo diary here). You can buy a Mod Podge in Japan as well, but it is four times more expensive than buying in the U.S. I bought mine at Walmart in Hawaii for $2.

modpodge how to decoupage2Decoupaging a box is super easy. You only need to cut the paper in the size of the box, apply Mod Podge on the box and stick the paper on. After the Mod Podge drys off, apply another thin coat and let it dry, and you are done.

how to decoupage3 how to decoupage4 in process decoupage decoupage with kidsIt is a great project to do it with your child. Kiko helped me apply the Mod Podge and she seemed to have enjoy it. I remade three boxes; one for my tea bags and the other two as gift boxes.

finished result decoupage flyingtiger papers how to decoupage1It’s almost the end of the year 2014. The direction and purpose of this blog has changed over the years. I would love to hear your feedback on the blog, what you would like to see more of and any suggestions to improve it.

I’ve created this survey and hope you can take a minute to participate! Please click here if you can. It is completely anonymous. Thank you so much for your help and support and hope you’ll have a Happy New Year!
