Hi, everyone!
It has been a trying week with Ondoy and Pepeng (typhoons) coming into our lives. It’s a very concrete reminder that we really have a lot of work to do to undo what we have done just in the past few decades.
Some of us can do more, but all of us can do something even one small thing one day at a time. Before you know it, we are have passed on this habit to our friends, love ones, neighbors and hopefully even to our children.
That is what I would like to share in this blog. To show there are alternatives, some are so simple, some so economical, some makes life easier, and a lot makes it even more beautiful.
To celebrate the “coming-out” of My Quaint Life, I would like to give something to my readers. A gentle reminder, a simple token that I will personally make for three (3) lucky brides or grooms-to-be (yes, even guys are welcome to join).
I’ll be giving away three custom-handmade heart brooches/pendant/hair accessory to brides who would want this as part of their bridal ensemble, to give to their moms on her wedding day, or to the groom who wants to surprise his bride with a special gift on their special day.
Why a heart brooch/pendant/hair accessory?
I actually wanted to make it into a GREEN colored heart, but I realized it would defeat the purpose. I wanted to show that we all need to think in terms of “multi-purposing” even special items, this way we not only make the most of it, we also reduce our waste.
Why brides and grooms?
It’s a way of reminding brides and grooms, that their wedding day is just the start of a whole new life. To start it green would be a great way to start your own green family.
