January 2015 news and updates

Hey Everyone!! :D

I am like SUPER excited because of a few things as follows:

1) I have an IPhone 5 so now I can take good quality pictures!! Not the ones from my IPod because they weren't in such good quality but I still love it! I will still be using my IPod because it was a gift so I would always cherish it. But i will be taking pictures with my new phone. Also I am still trying to get used to it so hopefully I will be more active.

2) I have got all the supplies needed to start my own clay work! I am really excited about it and I can't wait to share with you my new crafts I have already made my first piece a few days ago - I haven't painted it but I will still show you what it looks like at the end of this post.

3) I have a lot of art supplies and things that I want start work on so I will be bringing you some of my artwork!

4) Now that I have an IPhone I can record clearly too so I'll be using my phone as a substitute of a camera :)

5) Also I have a clear IPhone case so I will show you how I make pattern paper and cut them to fit my phone case. Which I am excited to share as well!

6) I will be doing a lot of filming in the next coming week with my craft work like clay, making your own pattern paper and phone cases, charms (more in the future) drawing, painting, writing tips and much much more!!

So now that we done the updates check out my first ever creation below and tell me what you think. Just to let you know I used pottery clay to try it out and I think it was really great I will be using other types of clay in the future (I just can't afford the one I really want to work with - polymer clay. One of the reason being that I don't have all the equipment e.g. A toaster over, the clay itself, gloss finish or Matt finish.)

Also one last thing the current clay I am using called NewClayand  I planning to buy the varnish for it in the future so for now the pieces that I make would be painted only :)

Even though the finished product looks amazing it was my piece I made using my clay so I am very proud of it. Even though it broke I will glue the pieces together and still paint them. :)

I also made these two piece just a ball and a diamond which I will also be painting as well.

Hope like it so far and I would have many more to come. I apologise for the late post but I really want to work on preparing for this.

I will be making the video for my creation and the painting of them tomorrow. I will post pictures of the finished pieces of my first creations after I paint them tomorrow too. 

They will all be il up on my blog, Instagram and Twitter.

Hope you all are doing great I will talk with you all tomorrow (hopefully) and you should soon see a video of my clay work tomorrow too! I can't wait!! :D

Take care and think positive Tarana A beaming star shining with positivity for the world to embrace xoxox

Happy New Year Everyone! Bring On 2015

Hey Everyone!

I just want to say Happy New Year. Another year to to do all things you love and enjoy! Make sure to stay safe and have fun and of course keep it halal :)



This post is a pre-post, and should be posted exactly on New Years Day where is live. So in the UK, London. I wanted to write something special for you all so that I could be a part of your New Year just like you are part of mine! :D I normally spend every year watching the fireworks that happens in the London Eye with my family, and just like every year we have the best seats. Our living room. It's cosy and beautiful and safe as well.

On 2013 I predicted sort of how things would be in 2014, I said people would be more optimistic, big changes will happen in my family and one of those changes would be that my big sis would get married. I was shockingly right about all three! My sister did get married this year! Alhamdulilah! So that was the big thing that happened in my family. About people being more optimistic I don't know if you noticed but everywhere you look something positive is happening. For example, I don't listen to music but my younger sister would tell me the lyrics of some of the songs and they are optimistic. The same with movies and tv shows. Maybe it's just me but honestly saying that's what I feel went down.

I told my big sister and youngest sister and when these things did happen my youngest sister said to me how I was freakishly right! And no I'm not a psychic, I only have Allah to thank for what I have and believe. She asked me today (a day before New Years) what my prediction is. I said I don't think it's a psychis thing maybe just intuition. So I said to her I think in 2015, that this year would be a productive year, not just for me but everyone. For me it could be my novel? Health? Marriage? For others it could be an exam, organising an event, anything! But I believe that this year would be a productive one and there would be bumps along the way but it would be worth it in the long run even if you can't see it at the time.

Anyway, I just wish you all a very Happy New Year. Stay positive, thinking optimistically will help you be more confident and realise many things that you may not realise otherwise. I hope you all have a wonderful and eventful year ahead. Control the way you think and you would be able to avoid doing any wrong. Seek forgiveness and pray to Allah to keep you safe. Remember, He is always watching you.

If you are one of those people who managed to get a ticket to the fireworks that's happening at the London Eye, then be sure to be safe and stay with your loved ones and also help out wherever you can. There's no harm in helping someone.

Well that's it for my post. Oh except for one thing. My New Years resolution is to be myself, take care of my health. Think of Allah. Be with my family as much as I can. And to do good and spread the optimism as much as I can.

Take care and Happy New Year! Tarana A beaming star shining with positivity for the world to embrace. Bring on 2015!! xoxox

Holidays = Potential guests

Hey Everyone! :D

So I've been wanting to do some more artsy stuff, but given that it's the holidays and living in an Asian family. There's a lot of visits to relatives, wedding invites, relatives coming over et. Which is why there has been less activity, and even though I want to do stuff I'm limited because of that.
