It’s a New Year and I’ve been doing my share this year by spreading some amazing beautiful pieces of art all around the blogging world. Well not me only, my Sister #4 as well! She’s been a great help through this all. You might be wondering as to what I’m talking about. Well I’ll tell you…
Late last year (hahaha sounds funny just saying it) I redesigned to something so awesome and amazing, showing their personalities to the hilt! They loved it and the whole public who has seen it expressed their love for it. It took a while and I harrassed my Sister (#4) for it but in the end she delivered an amazing job and header! They are now a “brand” one which gives you a warm flowy feeling when you view their website :)
But that’s not the only thing I did, earlier in 2011 I was bombarded by my best friend for a unique header but well I postponed it due to job things, and my travelling (actually scratch all that it was due to my laziness). And luckily for her the delay happened because the final product was a complete different thing than what was first discussed. In the end, the result is beyond gorgeous! Hell it makes you drool every time you stare at it! (Sister #4 helped out majorly!)
The beauty of the headers I created is that I gave both their personalized “Watermarks” or “Signatures” to place on images shot by them, and display pictures to match the whole look. It really don’t matter what theme you use with your WordPress account. The beauty is in the graphics and the unity. If it is done in a clean manner then you’ll appreciate your website even more!
Other headers I created were for my Twirlie and College Bestie , which you can see below here, but for her it was a huge blog makeover from a previous one.
And not to mention my own design!
So what do you think of them so far? Failures? or Objects of Beauty?
P.S. Will probably set something up in which those who wish to order headers for their blogs, they’d be able to contact and sign up :) Of course everything comes at a price. So keep a watch out for it.
With the last days of this month I have decided to stop mourning my beloved Steve Jobs completely. The color black will disappear in a way from this page yet Steve will always and forever be in our hearts! Feast your eyes on my latest creation (this time without the help of the sister who shall not be named [Yes I am insinuating that you are Lord Voldemort!])
Even though most of you saw a sneak peek of my newly designed character and some features of it my design with my gelaskins I think now you can see another version of it. Every element in the header represents something that is near and dear to me and well, this year I am hoping to instill a few holiday cheers within each banner (sort of bringing back Vintage Jacqui [something a majority of you haven't seen because you are new]).
Anywho, enjoy and share your thoughts and ideas. I wanted to go with a major change yet I thought this was major enough :D
Well I believe this can be called Stage 3 of the redecoration I just wanted to show you so far of what happened to the area, from Stage 2 to Stage 3.
That was the before image.
And this is the after image, we changed the chairs, installed the shelf, installed the Morrocan Hand Woven Carpet that I recently got as a gift from Morroco, and Daddy’s little art objects.
So I have been wanting to update about the painting escapade we have been doing but I didn’t have a chance, working two shifts sucks major tush! Plus I had a few things going on for me, like on Wednesday I had to go somewhere where I never thought I would ever set foot in, ironically enough. And on Thursday I was yelled at for my poor service performance hehe but then again screw people, not many are worth slaving over and offering great service to hehe :P
Anywho, Thursday we started the painting or rather Daddy did since he did not let me paint at all, until yesterday he let me paint a little cabinet we had so that it would match our walls and such. The colors are amazing, I chose dark green and light green and pretty soon I’ll upload snap shots of the final color phase. It’s just simply amazing. And fun to paint. Today our new furniture arrived and so far things are being set up as we speak.
I’m hungry and I want some nice snacks I don’t know why.
Things are crazy in 2008 but I can’t help having faith that they will get better soon, very soon I hope. Anyways Happy late Birthday Daddy and Happy Early birthday Tooms and Sister #4! Enjoy!
So a few days ago I went back to work, some might say that work is what defines you, or what takes over your days and such. Well if I loved my job then I would’ve been so excited about going back, sadly enough that’s not the case since I feel that I am not in the right area for me. Therefore I wasn’t that anxious about going back to dealing with customers and whiny nagging people because you know that all they do is just sit and whine and nag. Sometimes it just makes me want to pull out my hair. You know when you get someone calling to ask why something was deducted or why this happened, well we do have a Call Center that can answer all your questions, but no YOU WANT ME TO STOP EVERYTHING I’M DOING to help you out. Pretty soon I’ll just throw it out there in their faces and tell them to just call the Call Center since I am not allowed to give you any more information on the phone.
Anywho, so Wednesday I went back to work, I didn’t miss it one bit I actually am despising going back after such a long break, and I’m waiting for anything to take me away from that job. I wish there is a job where you get money to just sit at home and be lazy :P (true Jacqui)
And apart from work, we’ve started redecorating our living room area in the basement, it’s pretty messy right now and bland but when I’m done with it, it’ll be something awesome! The desks, the bookcases, the chairs everything is going to be top notch and I can’t wait for it! This week we get to clean out the area in anticipation for Saturday when we get the deliveries of the furniture and stuff. Oh and painting of the room will be this weekend yaay! Can’t wait!
That’s pretty much what I’m working on, oh and the furniture we grabbed was from IKEA, they do have pretty good workspace furniture.
P.S. Color of the furniture is seen above, wall colors and the rest of the stuff aren’t available yet. Oh and the furniture is close to what we chose but not exactly like that.
There is a new couch on the block, and thanks again to the wonderful stylings of my not-that-talented (just kidding of course) sister “Sister #4″ I have a nice interior design to go with it. Just as you were getting used to that Couch that went to America, I decided it was time to bring the couch back home, and so while browsing for the perfect couch I happened to stumble on the godsend! The most amazing couch I have ever seen and lo-and-behold my little sister was able to whip me an amazing header to match it.
So without further ado, I introduce to you my new funky couch!
Along with the couch I decided to spruce things up for my personal gravatar and so if you check the responses that I will be posting up to my previous posts, you can see the beautiful new me, or even some on your own blogs. It’s just a nice way to get back and try to get rid of that depression.
Oh yeah, and Happy National & Liberation Day Kuwait :)
Now tell me what you think of this new couch?
At one point I was going to write Christmas but then I remember that more holidays take place other than Christmas, and with the recent shows showing us how they are also forced to use the same term (read: holiday) I thought it would be nice to begin it this way! To get to the point that I am trying to make, I have decided recently that I am bored of the technicolored theme I am currently abusing and therefore I want something nice and solid, little did I know that today while browsing through newly made themes, I found the theme that I have been dying for! Yes you’re looking at the most beautiful theme I have come to view in these past few weeks. So please welcome Little Jacqui in the Holiday Season. Oh and please excuse me for the fact that I have my little baby picture up there in just a pajama rather than wintery clothes, but I think I can survive the chill.
So lots of things are going on in my life, I’ve been extra busy in these past few days, wait not lots of things going on, but lots of work and obligations, I don’t have much new news to report. I would like to thank everyone who has left me birthday wishes and such on my previous post. Thank you everyone hehe I feel so loved! *Awwwww* I will be writing a post documenting my Birthday Celebration this Saturday as I have one more before I am done with it. Not that I celebrated or anything I just want this weekend to end then to write about it. But lots of nice things happened and I’m glad.
As for now let’s just sit back and enjoy the snow!
*Sings “Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snooooow!” (Dedicated to )*
… the Eid break! No matter how short or how crazy it’s going to be I’m looking forward to it because I can catch up on some sleep and rest my poor over-abused self!
It sucks having to just go day in and day out dealing with alot of things and not have a small amount of time to yourself, it even sucks more when you can’t enjoy your sleep anymore it becomes a matter of just sleeping enough to pass the neccessity for sleeping time. If I ever made sense about that!
Anywho here are somethings I am checking out:
Sony Ericsson is coming out with a “Havanna” Edition for their new phones. The W910i and W880i in Havanna Bronze are just HOT!
You have to love those Mac Fanboys who spend some time creating their renditions of how they want the products to look like. This is their rendition of the MacBook Pro Touch!
So a few days ago I upgraded to WordPress 2.3 and I still haven’t had the chance to explore all the features, currently there is a new Tagging feature in which you can tag your posts rather than Categorize them, they’re a bit of the same thing. It also monitors all your plugins and keeps you up to date on the latest versions.
It was an insane day, lots of work but not work I guess. It drove me nuts! And I got to remember I’ve got pending stuff for tomorrow to work on. Tomorrow is a better day hopefully!
I’m dying for a new phone, my current Nokia N76 is dying and the blob on the screen where it got messed up is getting bigger that almost all of the bottom line is invisible. I want to get the W910 but I can’t wait anymore! I was even looking for a temporary solution but I guess I’ll look for some of the phones we’ve got at home, sad thing is, nothing cool around here. Good news is that Amazon UK has it up for Pre-Order with a release date of October 15 which is cool! It’s for 314 Pounds however. [] Oh and I want it in red!
I redesigned Swair’s blog and launched it on her own domain. It’s cool and one of my nicest works! I am glad! []
I am going to post this picture just because!
I just love the way his mouth is almost crooked on the right side! The way he talks! *sigh* He’ll always have my heart!

Currently she's being a lazy bum and putting off writing and everything else but when she does this is her space where she likes to vent and release everything, so welcome to it.
