Before anything else, I want to thank everyone who supported my previous thrift collection, Daybreak Dollhouse. I woke up to lots of online orders thru Facebook, text and email a day after I posted the photos. Items were almost sold out in just 24 hours. Here’s my love from me to you <3

Moreover, I am pleased to inform all of you that Project Rummage’s latest collection, Take Back the City, is up! I have a total of 16 new adorable items which include adorable tutu skirts and a couple of floral dresses. Here are the photos:

You know that moment when you are in a hurry then you get your container of earrings and you see them all tangled and lost that when you pick up a single pair, three others are fused to it or some pairs are missing? I admit, it stresses me out almost every morning. Ugh.

If you are experiencing the same scenario in every waking day of your life, then keep reading because I am about to share how I came up with an inexpensive way to store earrings and keep them organized and accessible always!

I would like to start a weekly entry on this blog starting today called Thrift of the Week (TOW). Basically, I just have to post photos of my favorite thrifted item of the week so I can brag about it loljk. And mainly because I am in dire need of blog posts. Meeh.

To start off, let me show you this top I purchased last week. I got 35 items in one day and this has got to be my favorite item. Look!

Here goes another Project Rummage blog post again. Sorry if I talk too much about my little online thrift store. It’s what’s keeping me happy and buys lately. (Well, work keeps me busy too, but not happy. Heh.)

Last Saturday, the boyfriend and I successfully ran a profitable rummage sale somewhere in Makati. If my memory serves me right, it was already our fifth time to hold a garage sale in that area. Fortunately, it’s always been a good turnout - we got to get rid of old stuff and make some money (last year, we were able to raise 8000+ in one day!). What a surefire way to make easy money especially if you need it fast (eg. pocket money for a Davao Trip next month).

If there is one thing that I truly enjoy doing, it’s working on this little thrift store of mine called Project Rummage. The tasks that I need to complete each and every time to keep this business alive are: (1) do thrift shopping, (2) take photos and (3) spend lots of time on Facebook; which are obviously my favorite activities of all time. Heh. If, someday, Project Rummage turns as profitable as my current work, I’d quit my job in a heartbeat and focus my heart and soul on this little project of mine. That’s the plan.

Last night, I stayed up until 3am to work on Project Rummage’s first collection for the month of May. We have 21 items in total, mostly in floral patterns and bold colors. I changed my layout from square photos to Polyvore-inspired collage and I think it looks better. Here are some of the items that are on sale:

Hey how is it going guys?

It’s been a truly awesome weekend for me because (1) Project Rummage’s Ukay Okay last Saturday was a success. I was able to raise enough funds to cover maybe the hotel accommodation and food for my upcoming Davao trip in June. I’m planning to hold another garage sale on the 19th; (2) It was our last class meeting earlier and I regret attending the class. I just killed time reading travel blogs which I can do at the comfort of my home. Anyway, my classmates and I celebrated by indulging ourselves with Razon’s halo-halo; (3) I watched Andi Eigenmann on the Buzz and I was moved. Heh.

Anyway, I am here to answer your questions (and post hair photos because I love it).

It’s a lovely Tuesday morning because (1) I don’t have to go to work and answer emails and stupid phone calls (2) I have the whole day for myself and (3) there’s a bag of Ruffles and a big box of Chunky Chips Ahoy sitting on my desk right now. I have lots of important stuff to do today (Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr not included) and I am giddy excited to accomplish them all. God, just give me enough strength to stay away from distractions please (Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr included).

Night swimming in Tagaytay is never a good idea. Well, at least for me who has very low tolerance in cold weather. I always end up with hurting knees, aching back and running nose. Is this age dependent lol? But heat in Manila is getting pretty intense, that even myself, who is very tolerant of hot weather, can no longer handle this crazy temperature. I love summer sunshine but admittedly, the heat has already taken its toll on me - too tired from sneezing and coughing ugh. Good thing Tagaytay is just 2 hours from Manila. For those who need an instant summer hideaway after stressful days, there is this place called Pina Colina - perfect for overnight option with limited time.
