The book: DIY Fashion Project

I started working on this book on the mid of 2013, I was in a transition phase back then.

DIY Fahion Project: Basically, this book contents many DIY Fashion projects from us 3; Evita Nuh, June Paski, and me. This book was created with hope that it may become a life savior, to those who at least have the urge to use their hands and mind productively. It is a bit misunderstood when people view fashion as something that is only available for those who could survive in its high-end “game”, where fashion belongs to those who could afford its high costs. Well, we would like to turn that perspective around, make a twist out of it. Who says fashion needs to be expensive? It’s all a matter how you can use god’s gift, our hands and mind, in a creative way. So we believe that this book may become a way out, a guide to all the women out there, to stay confident with their own creations. We are here to proof that the “fashion is expensive” statement is only an illusion. What’s the value of wearing a branded expensive item, where you might have to suffer after that because most of your earnings are spent for it? Wouldn’t you be more proud to wear your very own creation?

Besides that, we’ve also shared some personal stories that we’ve never explicitly written here on the blog. I’ve never been too wide open of my personal life and what I’ve been busy on besides the blogging world. My absence here, is a sign that I’m working on something serious in my daily life. But I just don’t share much of it on the blog don’t i? Well don’t worry, I have written a complete edition of it, in this book. JSince I wrote (and actually finished) this book by the end of 2013, my shared insights are more of my life around my high school phase. As I looked back through the pages, I did realize that I never did stood still throughout my young ages, I was like an ongoing machine. It didn’t even look like what a teenager might do in their age! I will be entering my 20s this October, which means that I am no longer a teenager. It’s scary, but this book became a living proof that I have spent my teenage life, in the right way. This does not mean that I am segmenting my stories to teenagers only, it is widely open to everyone in any age; youths, elders, etc. The values in the stories are things that could always be implemented to anyone. Therefore, i want to share this to every single one of you, with hope that this book will truly become a life savior in any form.
