Bright ideas by means of Paper

This post brought to you by Astrobrights Papers by Neenah Paper. All opinions are 100% mine.

Have you ever created something fabulous from a simple piece of paper? Actually, it is not just an ordinary paper as you may think. These are papers with different colors that are perfect for all the time tasks. When we were in our primary and secondary school days, we used to have some art works by means of colored papers. We could use it as a book or a notebook cover and designed it just the way we liked it. These AstroBrights papers have many different colors too which a kid will also love just as we loved it before. Unlike those ordinary coloring paper, this one has a brighter and a livelier shade that we could even use it to decorate our room instead of some artworks. And what makes it so unique? This 23 vibrant colored paper is made by a high quality product which has a remarkable performance which others may always discern. Now, since it is already in the market, this might be the year for you because they are giving away lots of prizes on their Give a Brighter Year" sweepstakes. It might be you who will have the chance to win $30,000 school supplies or a $500 gift card by simply entering their Astrobrights Paper Sweepstakes by clicking the “LIKE” button and start the fun. It actually never ends up there! For us family, "Make Something Astrobright” can be more exciting since our creativity can be seen by others through our own creation. Making our favorite paper craft is very exciting and challenging too. What would be a perfect creation for us? While I am still getting an idea, you could join and go in with us and get motivated. Be inspired by the ASTROBRIGHTS community on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and some social media channels and get started.

We can’t get enough of it

I’m talking about the flowers we’ve seen at the Flower Field tour that the family had weeks ago. The beautiful scene I used to see only at postcards was right in front of me. The buds, blossoms, the variety of colors, I can still vividly see. It feels like we were walking on a blanket made with real flowers, and the sweet smelling air, oh how can I forget? My wife keeps telling me that she really can’t get enough of our experience. It’ll definitely be more fun if YOU were there. My wife said, If only she can pick up a flower and give one to each of her friends, she’ll no doubt do it. I jokingly told her, see you in jail honey. LOL! Seriously, flowers speaks a lot, they can convey emotions, happy or sad. Looking at my wife’s photographs inspires me to do some gardening if only I could.

Hey, I mean it! I would like to have a backyard full of flowers and other plants. Then I wouldn’t have to think of ordering flowers online to give to my wife, although there are beautiful flower arrangements at the website I found online, along with goodies like cheese hamper online, wine baskets, chocolates and other giveaways that I cannot make it myself, might as well just get it online. I want to surprise my wife one of these days. Guess what? Even our children are falling in love with the beauty of flowers that our Grand Creator had created for all of us to enjoy.

Creative play for our family


I was having lunch at my work when I saw the commercial of the wikki stix great crafts ideas for kids. I thought it was cool and fun crafts. I’m sure my children would love to have this kind of stuff. My son loves creative play and the fact that this stuff is a clean and mess free, I’m sure my wife would love it because she doesn’t have to worry about cleaning for it’s a mess free art. I found their website and it’s Wikkistix.com and they have versatile stuff that’s not only for preschooler but also for the kids who are in middle school. I think this is an excellent and fun toy for my kids and for our family activity.
