This guest post on After Holidays Cleaning is brought to us by Best London Cleaners. As the holidays are finished, most of us are reluctant to get back into their regular routines. It can be daunting and stressful to move from lazy evenings by the fireplace to busy mornings at work, but life goes on and we have to keep pace with it. One thing that we should not forget is to put our homes in order so that we can come home after work to a peaceful and cozy living environment. So, before your days … [Read more...]
The Master And Her Piece: Dimple Lim, Cymplified!
Happy New Year! Welcome to the third installment of my new blog feature called The Master and her Piece! It’s an interview I do with women who inspire me and others to live and create better. I ask questions about their masterpieces or their works, their inspiration and ideas, their motivation, their challenges and their advice; to hopefully encourage my readers, too. I have known Dimple Lim since elementary. We were classmates, batchmates, schoolmates. She became my neighbor and we … [Read more...]
After Holidays Thank You Prayer, Cymplified!
Dear Lord, On Christmas day... I want to offer my thank you prayer. As I got down on all fours, collecting, crumpling and stuffing wrapping paper into paper bags, I want to thank You for the mess that is Christmas morning. You have shown me that I am blessed with children who love opening presents big or small, that we have something exciting to look forward to; that there are people who care to give us the gifts of their time, effort and money. Please give me the wisdom to guide them so … [Read more...]
Watercolor Art Materials Roundup, Cymplified!

Martin's radiant concentrated watercolor at an event. I have a big … [Read more...]
A Holiday Movie Night With Family, Cymplified!
I cannot wait to wind down with a holiday movie night with my family... After ordering or buying gifts for family, friends and the children's classmates. After wrapping presents, making customized gift tags and sticker labels. After sourcing and looking to complete the kids' attires for their school Christmas program. After the rehearsals and the children's Christmas program itself. After attending Christmas parties, filling up ourselves with food and conversations. It's time … [Read more...]
Watercolor Gift Tags, Cymplified!
Mere days before Christmas and we're all about the get-togethers and the gifts we will be giving at the gatherings. Time is scarce to spend it on the traffic jammed roads and navigating the crowded malls to buy gifts, wrappers and tags. Good thing there's online shopping! I could buy presents from the comfort of my home and in my jammies. Also, I have a stash of paper bags, papers and ribbons from opened presents that could be reused. Saving the earth one gift at a time, I say! :-D For … [Read more...]
