diy zipper clutch

quite recently i went through a random blog and my eyes got over this amazing diy. i've been a huge fan of clutches

after reading it, one thing i immediately had to try was the diY zippered clutch they had featured. it is so cute, and though it took me a few minutes to get the hang of sewing zippers (can someone say crooked seams?!), it really was a quick and easy project.
 some pointers before you try it out:

1. the hardest part was finding zippers. i went to three local craft/ fabric stores and no one had enough stock (you'll need 7) of a 7" zipper in an appealing color.

. a set of 10 (mine were light khaki but you can specify any color) was only for 150 rs that is way cheaper than they would have been at the fabric store and they were exactly what i was looking for. bonus- i had three extra to ruin as i got the hang of sewing zippers.

2. duck cloth is a great material for the backing. i only bought 1/4 of a yard which was way more than i even needed, and with a coupon it was 85 rs. they didn't have an exact match to my zippers so i went with a light grey; i think it is a lovely compliment.

 

3. i should thank my near friend who helped me to sew this amazing zipper clutch not only that i learned to sew.you can also try this DIy as its easy all you need issome zippers and some duck cloth and you just need

to sew it and your done .viola !!!!!

i hope you liked it plz let me know what you think about this DIy

How to be happy

I used to be very unhappy .I always underestimated myself.i dint value myself.I dint know I am better than i think. I didn’t realize it at the time because i had been foolish Don’t get me wrong, I had a lot of happiness throughout my life but I would always default back to the negative. That’s just the way my mind wants to work. It wanted me to focus on the negative.

Throughout my life I have had times where I have had nothing and also times where I have had everything (or at least what I had thought was everything). It didn’t matter. Stuff doesn’t matter. It’s all about what’s inside.
Today, at age 23, I am a happy and content person (most of the time). So what changed? Did I win the lottery? Did I become a monk? Nope. I just became willing to change and every day I make a conscious decision to seek happiness  in my life. I want to become a better person each day. I want to be happier. The happier I am, the more useful I am to myself and everyone around me. The more I can help other people the more i learn.
I’m far from perfect at any of this. Most of these things were learned by doing the opposite or by going through a lot of pain. I still go through times when I revert back to being negative and thus become unhappy. But I keep trying and work to become just a little bit better each day. Do you want to be happier? Do you want more happiness? Here are some of these things that have worked for me:

Stop thinking that you are too old to do something. You’re not.

try a different look you can also copy NICki minaj look from a video called stupid hoe hahahha

try to act like like your favorite actor

value yourself

respect yourself and if u cant do that no one will do that for you

Stop thinking you are too young to do something. You’re not.

Remember that your mind can be a dangerous place so don’t go there alone. Talk to someone each day about how you are feeling.

Realize that fear is natural but don’t let it consume you. Recognize your fears. Write them down, it removes a lot of the power that we give them.

Expectations are resentments in the making. Don’t put unrealistic expectations on other people.

Don’t be afraid to say you don’t know something. Be okay with asking questions. Stop thinking you have to know everything.

Compliment someone each day. Even if it’s a stranger.

Be positive even when you don’t feel like being positive.

Don’t put people down to make yourself feel better. It doesn’t work and it makes people respect you less.

Be on time. If you can, be early.

Be a person of your word.

Don’t give unsolicited advice if it’s really just to make yourself feel better.

Have empathy but don’t pity people.

 they want.

Return phone calls.

Don’t procrastinate. Thinking about not doing something that you know you have to do is usually much harder and taxing than actually doing it.

Be humble.

Have a purpose in life. This should go beyond “I want to make a lot of money” or “I want to be famous.”

Don’t be afraid to make mistakes.

Make sure you learn from those mistakes…

Try to treat everyone you meet the same way. Don’t treat the CEO better than the intern. Be consistent, be humble.

Always say please and thank you to anyone doing anything for you.

Sometimes you can either choose to be happy or choose to be right. Always choose to be happy.

Get rid of most of your stuff. Our possessions weigh us down.

Create something new every day.It doesn’t matter if it’s something small or something you think is stupid, just create. Get used to creating.

Recognize that the things you think are bad or terrible often turn out to be great in the long run. Think back in your life and see how this is true.

Shorten the time you spend being p*ssed/angry/rejected/negative/. These feelings are natural but you don’t have to stay stuck in them.

Be okay with feeling good about yourself and being happy. Don’t always wait for the other shoe to drop. Know that you are worthy of happiness.

Don’t plot revenge.

Forgive people.

Don’t let the weather affect your mood too much.

Read at least one book per month.

Connect with two new people each week.

Reconnect with one old friend each month

Breathe deeply and pay attention to your breathing at least once per day.

Remember this quote from Albert Einstein, “There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.” Choose the latter.

Don’t get mad when someone doesn’t return your call/email/text right away. Patience is a virtue

Get a mentor. Listen to them. (Your first thought is usually wrong.)

Develop spiritual life based on something. Anything. hahhahaa i know it sounds kind of cheesy and corny.

Don’t judge other people’s spiritual lives (or lack of one.).

Get a good nights sleep every night.

If you wake up in the middle of the night and can’t fall back asleep, get up and do something productive (anything).

Do something nice for at least one person each day. Do it anonymously.

Do your own research. Don’t blindly take advice (especially from list like this;)

Try not to judge people before you get to know them.

Say I love you to at least one person each day. Make sure it’s someone that you actually love.

Smile more.

Be okay with the fact that not everyone is going to like everything you do. Don’t let it hold you back.

Remember that what other people think of you is None of your business. 

Try not to multitask. Concentrate on what you’re doing.Don’t let anything make you too happy or too sad.

Don’t take yourself or anyone else too seriously.

i hope this post helped you a lot.plz let me know about what you think :D

how To deal with heartbreak and still maintain poise

We all have gone through heartbreaks.i bet all of us have gone through heartbreaks and if u have gone through heartbreaks then one day you will face such kind of situation.Ending a relationship is hard, whether it was your decision or the other person’s decision. You may be dealing with painful emotions and want to deal with those feelings as quickly as possible. There are several ways that you can work through your painful emotions and start to move on, such as writing about your feelings, allowing yourself to grieve, and being cautious about rebound relationships. Keep in mind that getting over a breakup takes time and patience. If things don’t seem to get better with time, remember that you can always turn to friends, family, or even a mental health professional for support.Breakups are really difficult especially when you are emotionally attached with someone .you will find yourself in a situation in which you can stop thinking about that person.once i knew a person and i fell for him.eventually things turned out to be ugly.i am going to your agony aunt and tell you how to deal with breakups and still maintain Your poise.you can try the following things
1)try not to think about him:just accept the truth its your head that messed you up.you are temporarily off balance and your distress is due to brain chemistry.it is mistake to heed the voice inside your head that urges you to seek him out.that voice comes from fear and insecurity and isnt the best of you.engage yourself in different activities you can also try the following things:
*blogging
*meeting new people
*act like Kristen Stewart (hahahhaha u should try that coz its easy to act like her)
*make new friends
*wear John Lennon shades
* go clubbing

Get a makeover:A makeover will make  you feel hot and good it will make you feel better about yourself .Just get it right or else you will end up looking FUgly like M
iley cyrus :D ^_^

Distance yourself from him/her : IF you seek contact with him,it will not bring relief ,it only brings shame.Being  close to him is like picking of a scab and make it bleed

Deal with your anger. Feelings of anger occur when we feel we have been wronged or there has been unfair treatment. In a situation where you will not contact your ex-partner, the best way to deal with anger alone is to justchill

• Take deep breaths and focus on allowing your muscles to relax. Soft music can often help.

Remind yourself of your ex’s negative traits. Focusing on all of the things that you don’t like about your ex can help you to get over the breakup faster. Try making a list of all of the things your ex did that you did not like. For example, maybe your ex often burped loudly after dinner, or made plans without you, or forgot your birthday. List every little thing that bothered you about your ex.

how to not care about what others think

we mostly care about what people think.we accept a status quote because everyone does the same around us.eventually our action get molded by what other think of us how do i look?do i look stupid?what are they thinking about me?are they talking  behind my back. just writing that gave me a headache.its dreadful and exhausting.if we care about what people think then we will become their prisoner.it makes a follower and a spineless spectator who take stand for nothing.pleasing people is a dreadful way to live life .today is the last day we live a life dictated by other .today we will not give a damn  about others perception.if you want to stand out then you can do the following things:
1. know yourself: it doesn't matter what others think of you.even if they think  good of you I dont think there is going to be anything different or remarkable.its absolutely essential to understand and value ourself.if u value your  principle and perception then rest will not matter.if u have ur values straight u will have your shit straight .sorry for being offensive Im not used to sugarcoating things

2.Be a straight arrow:never be afraid to tell the truth no matter how difficult it is.be like a straight arrow .always be on point.we cant please everyone.if we please everyone we will become a spineless spectator.spending your life thinking about others perception is a dreadful way to live our life.the world doesn't need one conflict avoider.

3. Nobody cares:no one really gives a damn about you.when i was young i was worried about what people would think of me now that Im old Im realized they weren't thinking about me..the truth is nobody cares.they will rate you or break you but its up to you how strong you can stay.
4.try random things:now you can try different things which are considered to be awkward or embarrassing or something which is not embarrassing like
*blogging
*getting a pixie cut
*wearing cat eye shades
*dressing like Miley Cyrus

  ahhahahha :D
 i hope you liked my article and remember be brave and dont give a shit to anyone's perception

Diy water ballon flip flops

I’ve been seeing these water balloon flip flops all over the web, for as long as I can remember. But after being so happy with how our our ribbon flip flops turned out, I decided to give these a go. The concept is the same as with the ribbon flip flops, you are basically just tying them onto the strap of the sandal.
Its really easy and effortless and its very inexpensive.anyone can do this and its looks really interesting.Big houses like D&G ,d square etc are sporting this slippers

What You’ll Need
 1. flip flops
 2.120 water balloons

Beginning at one end of the flip flop strap, tie on a water balloon making a double knot at the top. For comfort, be sure that the smooth side of the balloon is touching the foot and the knot is facing upward. Continue tying balloons onto the flip flop until completely covered, alternating the direction of the balloons as you tie. This way you won’t end up with all tops on one side and ends on the other.

Helpful Tips:
Stretch the balloons slightly before tying.
Once you tie the balloon on the strap pull it tight so the balloons appear fluffy.
Be sure to push the balloons close together as you work so that they are nice and tight.
This flip craft will be a little tricky for younger kids, because the balloons are so small. You could easily do this project with larger balloons.
