Collection and Hobbies

Cody says...

Everyone wants to collect something.. may it be Hello Kitty stuff, Gundam, Tamiya 4WD, Barbie collection, etc. etc. So, what have you been collecting lately?

Ever since Debi shared me this Saber Lion nendoroid picture,


I found all other nendoroids to be cute, and me wanting to collect all of them. The size of each nendoroid is more or less 3-4 inches. So I looked for other nendoroid pictures on the net (while i'm not doing anything at the office) and I found out that it costs around Php1,500- Php 5,000, depending on its quality and number of extra features thrown in. I must say, it's a bit expensive for me. >_<



THESE are our collection of stuff toys caught from the Dream Catcher machine at Timezone. They all have names, [from left to right] Froggy - the frog, Fifi - the giraffe, Octet - small octopus, Peach - octopus, Crabby - crab, Bububear - bear, Nozzy - dog with big nose, Weee - dog with big ears and Toitoi - the turtle! :)

When we want to de-stress from everything, we go to Timezone to play, and as much as possible bring home at least one toy.

And for office decoration :D, I created a lot of cubeecraft toys to display it on my workstation.

Tux, Stewie and Kirby

Hey! it's easy to have that cubeecraft models, you just need some a4 paper, scissors, and cutter, and visit cubeecraft site and print out their cool patterns. Simple right? You don't need any paste/glue to put them all together.

I've been watching Gintama series for a few months now, and I was really happy when Debi accompanied me to Toys R Us - Rob Galleria, to show me these Gintama Gashapon Collection.

Shinpachi and Hijikata

Kagura and Gintoki

And now we have Kagura and Okita. 3 more to go!!

If you are also fond of GunPla, you can visit Debi's gundam site for his works-in-progress. He's just starting, so be easy on him. ^_^;

Oh, by the way, if you are interested in gadgets, toys or hubby stuff from JAPAN, send Debi an email along with the picture to inquire about it.

Ciao!

Planner with Tabs

Cody made...

a customized planner with tabs. I've been eye-ing the Cosmo planner because it's much cheaper than the Belle De Jour planner. Last Sunday, I went back to National Bookstore to buy the Cosmo planner, but sadly, it was out of stock. I don't want to buy it without plastic. Then my mom remembered that when she bought the Yummy Magazine - December Issue, a Goldilocks planner was in it. I didn't like the cover page so I created a customized planner with tabs.

To Make a customized planner with tabs...

What you need:

1. Planner
2. Glue
3. Scissors
4. Bond Paper
5. Old Magazines
6. Tape
7. Adhesive Index Tabs

How to do it:

1. Cover the planner with bond paper
2. Ready your cut-out pictures from the old magazine
3. Paste your cut-out pictures at the front and back cover of the planner
4. Cut the Adhesive index tabs into 4 pcs each tab.
   
5. Label the tabs and put it to where you want it.

Here's what I've made.
