Moments of Wonder and Ponder

                                                             Assalamualaykum eveyone! It's Khadijah here, I had two boring vases that I purchased and my sister suggested I paint on them since it was plain white. One of them was accidentally dropped by her, and it broke completely, but she mended the glass pieces using glue. Sadly, we weren't able to find the bottom piece, but it's not noticeable, here's how it looks! I decided to paint different sections of the vase in different colors to look interesting. You could get some inspiration, inshallah when you hope to customize any plain vase or jar. I started off with this turquoise kind of color, which was made from white and a little green added. Black and deep green was added I also painted some areas bright yellow to make them look bright, then I when over each color with different c...

Well, if you are interested, come along with me to get some inspiration! For these book covers, you will need : 1. Poster Paint (or any type of paint) 2. Brushes and glitter pens 3. Surface to keep paint 1. Ombre pattern cover My mini journal had an ugly cover that needed to be customized, so I decided to peel the glossy layer and leave it with the thin cardboard.

You could write a saying or quote using glitter or any ...

"We have undergone so much. Homo sapiens they are called? For what wisdom - do they even own?" he said as his luminous crown twitched vigorously. ''Enough, they think using their 'power' will stop us?'' he continued, "Despotism. Using that sort of 'power'!".  His face was unhappy and he sulked over every minute that passed by. He had known the hidden abilities that his team possessed but the fear of the future overcame every thought.  In a deep breath of two, certainty stuck the core. It wasn't the last minute, more was to come, for humankind was clueless and the future had to change. And that's how it all began... In 2019, December, in China's city Wuhan, in a very or absolute unknown world, more than what the naked eye was to see, in the unknown world of viruses, troops and troops, billions and billions, of red triangular crowned viruses with light gray bodies, and others with long blue crowns - most of them varying in c...

People were busy, with their distractions and chores. Ants scurried passing nosy sparrows, running with bits of food to their tiny secure homes. Squirrels nibbled acorns that were half-eaten. The heavy clouds bursted as if they were beaten, people ran past each other, some popped colourful umbrellas, and others sheltered their heads with their unlucky hands. The rich were fortunate to have a home, while the poor shivered in clay huts, witnessing their roofs gradually expand. The street dogs ran with crouched backs, their fluffy coat was wet and useless. The nosy sparrows found the answer to why the ants scurried by, but having no time to think of that, they flew hurriedly to their nests, protecting their eggs. Puddles left dark brown sand dregs. The fish laughed and chuckled seeing the rain...
