Have you enjoyed playing pretend “sari-sari” store as a kid? Did you also have this uncontrollable curiosity and longing to have your own cash register and bar code reader? Or was that just us? *giggles* Riley aka our 4-year old “bossing” has been enjoying his playtime: asking us to order food from his restaurant, cooking […]
We’ve been wanting to play around with more downloadables at the Googly HQ but our projects snowballed during the last quarter of 2018 so this project got parked for a while. But that’s done and we’re finally releasing the first batch of our Instagram Story Templates! (Can we get a *woop woop*?) So what are
It’s heartwarming and inspiring to see companies add a layer of purpose or mission to their products. As a mom, I feel so grateful for brands like Tiny Buds for expressing genuine concern in instilling values for the kids of today. They go beyond their products, even to the point of creating a story book
I’m trying to recall when my curiosity for cutting ever started. I remember when I was 5, and I was using a super blunt pair of scissors to cut my bangs. My mother was really upset to find out what I did. Hahahahahaha. I still think it’s funny to this day. I tried hiding under
Hello Guys! I’ve been trying to finish this personal project since summer. I noticed that ever since Riley started learning, I became more concerned about things like our education system: how kids learn things and the like. On some days, I find myself giving speeches to my friends about how maybe we can put more
The concept of Wonderland has fascinated us for a while now. We remember scanning tha pages of Vogue some years back, admiring the Alice in Wonderland-inspired editiorial they did with Annie Leibovitz and Natalia Vodianova. So when Cath Kidston asked us to conduct an arts and crafts workshop in celebration of the launch of their
Hello Guys! We’ve been getting a lot of requests to bring the Digitizing Workshop back. What is the Digitizing Workshop about? The Digitizing Workshop was originally created for students who would like to create digital files out of their hand drawn and hand-lettered illustration.

As I grew up, these turned into card-hunting and I would spend all night thinking about what to write. Years passed
Learning should be fun. While I know it can be challenging too, I’d like to make it as interesting and as enjoyable as possible especially for Riley. This is also the reason why our house is bursting with children’s books of all sorts and everyone at home, including our extended families, sing to nursery rhymes
Hello Guys! ? I always get asked how I choose colors and come up with a palette for my projects. It’s on top of the FAQs list alongside (a) what printer do we use, (b) what paper/paint do we use, and (c) when will Riley have a meet and greet? *Really, I’m so thankful for this kid’s
We had quite the sweet and egg-citing Easter weekend filled with all things candy and color at S Maison Conrad Manila as we held an Easter crafts and treats workshop earlier this month! I’ve always wanted to explore colors with food to the point that I even bought chocolates of different hues this year and
We’re grateful for the opportunity to spread our love for colors as we painted our third heart and this time for Ayala Malls Cloverleaf! I can clearly remember our first heart in Serendra. (Read about it here.) It was just seven weeks after I gave birth to Riley! I was cleared by the doctor and
I recently had the chance to revisit my childhood: all those years spent tinkering with paper during siesta time, playing teacher and volunteering for bulletin boards all rolled into one as we got to create a backdrop and conduct a watercolor and crafts workshop for the launch of H&M’s newest line for kids! The elements
They say that presents are a two-way street. They’re an experience for both giver and receiver. As much as receiving them sounds fun, giving them is just as much if not more. But more than the item itself, it’s the thought that counts. Or the effort. I know this sounds so cliché and redundant by
It’s 11:33pm and I’m actually supposed to begin working on a new project due next week but I just can’t seem to bring myself to do so until I’ve written all everything down about the past week. I’m currently sitting down on our couch with thoughts brimming in my head and wondering if last week

Haha. Also, I’ve been wanting to have my own geometric trays for years now so I was just super happy &
I’ve been missing crafting so much that I noticed in my current design project, I’ve been including some arts and crafts elements: buntings, paper crafts and cut-outs. So, finally, I gave it a try. I realized, there’s more to your printer than just producing the usual school and office documents or photos (Of you and your crush!
One of my first few jobs after graduating was in Sales, Marketing and Trade Marketing. As much as it probably means supermarket or mall hopping on the outside or driving all day, it also meant doing things such as: 1. visiting supermarkets via the back door entrance along with boxes and boxes of goods 2.
Hello Guys! 😀 How’s your week so far? I’ve been wanting to post this but I just made sure that I’m done with my deliverables so I ended up writing down notes on my sketch book one night just right after finishing a few pages. The notes here are dated January 3, 2017 but it’s
Hello Guys! I’ve been working on this project a couple of months back and I was so happy but overwhelmed at the same time! :O I kept asking “Really?” until I realized I should stop questioning & start working on it. Haha. Above: One of the early design submissions for the Ayala Malls paper bags.
