Currently || April Edition

I AM CURRENTLY...

Journaling and loving it. I bought a notebook from Nuuna while I was in Salzburg. I got it at this home concept store and I am such a sucker for shops with unneeded but incredibly adorable things.


Relaxing after traveling. Have you ever been to Salzburg? It's magical.


Enjoying the flower obsession on Instagram. Spring is wonderful.


And doing random Project Life spreads from past photos, but sadly NOT working on my 2016 album.

Day in the Life™ || 29 March 2016

 
This was my first year joining Ali Edwards in documenting a day in my life. I decided on a whim the night before and gave myself a couple "rules" to follow so that it wouldn't be too much work.

ONE: I took all the photos with my phone. My phone doesn't take that great of photos, but I cared more about convenience.

TWO: No retakes. No matter how crappy the photo. See above that I have a terrible phone and just know that I got a lot of bad shots. And I'm ok with it because it's all a part of my new mantra that perfection is overrated.

THREE: All the photos had the same Vscocam filter (A5). Of course, if the filter didn't fit the photo I just made it black and white and called it good.

I got my pictures printed through Rossman here in Germany. They have the option to print 4"x4" photos and the quality isn't bad.

I just started on the album today and decided on a 4x4 gold WRMK album and kraft paper. I'll also be stamping numbers using PAPIERPROJEKT stamps because I absolutely love how the chronological day layout I did in my Budapest album.

Here are a few photos from my day using my "rules":










I will post the rest of the album here on the blog as soon as it is finished.

Hope you enjoyed the first pages xo,

Kais

52 Project: April Update




Yes, I'm still doing the 52 Project I mentioned back in January. You would think that taking pictures once a week would be easy, but LIFE HAPPENS. No problem, though. (Remember I said before that perfection was overrated). Well, I just rearranged a few photos so that I have a picture a week.

And I decided to add weekly photos of me and Zo. Don't worry, she's smiling on the inside in these pictures.




I'm going to try and post these photos every week on Mondays to hold myself accountable. We'll see how it goes.

Spring Appreciation

Spring has sprung. We have been to the park more times already this spring than all of last year. Take that 2015.
