Quote Of The Day.

Quote of the Day:



"In the end, you're measured not by how much you undertake but by what you finally accomplish."



Lamp Shade Design........For art Lover Fashion Students

 
This project was inspired by a vintage lamp that I spotted one day while I was getting my browse on. It is a super simple project that requires only a lamp shade (duh), yarn (double duh), scissors and not much explanation. I used four colours of yarn in a random pattern but you could use just one or even multiple colours but arranged in a colour blocked pattern.

 
 

To start wrapping your yarn, secure it on the inside of your lampshade with a few knots. Here are a few in progress shots to show you what my shade looked like as I added more colours.

 
 
 


Once you have completely covered your shade, stick it on the lamp base of your choice, put a ceramic kitty beside it (optional) and enjoy!

 
I hope you fellow yarn lovers enjoyed this idea! Let me know if you try it out yourself!

7 of The Coolest Characteristics of a Libra …

7 of The Coolest Characteristics of a Libra …


7 of The Coolest Characteristics of a Libra ...
Characteristics of a Libra I’m going to talk about today are too cool not to mention, something you’ve either already noticed or are going to right after you take a peek at this list and definitely one more reason to love your Libran friends and family members for. Yes, a Libra can be self observed at times, introvert and moody even but the qualities of a Libra definitely surpass its shortcomings. And with that said, here are some of Libra’s best traits:
 

1. Intellect

The first on my list of wonderful characteristics of a Libra has everything to do with the mind and, yes, some might even be surprised to find out their beautiful, graceful Libra does have a pretty good head on her shoulders which she uses for more than just hair and makeup! Extreme curiosity, deductive skills, quick thinking and the ability to pick things up here and there as well as thoroughly research the matters of special interest will provide Libra with an array of topics to discuss during her social quests, making the male representatives of this sign the focal point of each conversation and female Libras well-loved social butterflies!

2. Diplomacy

Represented by scales – a symbol of justice, balance and harmony, this zodiac sign wants to make sure both sides are at peace and is therefore a perfect negotiator. Law is another area in which Libras might be able to develop a successful career although their ideals might prove to be a limitation of sorts. A Libra rarely ever makes a fool of herself or others by saying something stupid or weird as Librans are known for their ability to foresee the potential outcome of their words and will reformulate potentially hurtful sentenced before letting them roll off their tongues.

3. Elegance

If you have a Libra in your life or happen to be one, you certainly know elegance is on the list of Libra’s best traits, too! A male Libra is a real Prince Charming – he looks the part, acts like one and will definitely show you how a lady such as yourself needs to be treated. A female Libra is a head-to-toe lady, even if she does not come wrapped in haute couture. Libra’s carefree elegance is not something that has to do with money, blue-blooded attitude or any of those things folks try to pass as “elegance” these days which is something, I’m sure, you are well aware of in case you have a Libra as a loved one.

4. Gentleness

Want to know more about cool characteristics of a Libra? Well, here’s one you should really respect Librans for. You see, this zodiac sign really appreciates balance, harmony and peace and is strongly against violence of any kind, rudeness, foul play and fighting. Librans often act as a glue that holds families and friendships together and are happy if they can do something to help end an argument or mend broken relationships.

5. Amity

Next on my list of admirable qualities of a Libra is, of course, the fact that Libras are generally considered to be extremely loyal friends. Their shoulder will always be available for you in case you have some crying to do, they’ll do their best to give you a good advice should you ask for one and are able to just listen which, I have to note, isn’t something a few other signs find easy to do. Libra is also terrible at holding grudges and will find it in her heart to forgive a lot of things although you should probably have in mind that betrayal is not one of them.

6. Social Skills

Chatty, witty yet well versed in courtesies and good manners, hanging out with a Libra is a watch-and-learn kind of thing that will never cease to amaze you. They are quite comfortable in a laid back kind of environment yet will easily swim trough a much tougher crowd, making themselves reliable companions of shyer or socially inept Zodiac signs. Politeness is also an often mentioned characteristic of a Libra, some even going as far to say that Librans can charm things out of people even when they are not trying. That sounds pretty awesome- doesn’t it?

7. Ideals

Often quotes as passe and totally unneeded in today’s society, ideals are still a very big deal for both male and female Libras. They believe in playing fair, in loving your fellow man, equity, protecting the innocent, true love and are pretty much a walking, talking version of a Hallmark card! This is one of both best and potentially worst characteristics of a Libra, by the way, mostly due to the fact that it has a huge potential of backfiring and shaking an idealistic Libra to her core.

What’s your favorite characteristic of a Libra and what makes you appreciate your beloved Libras so much? Are you even into all those Zodiac signs characteristics of think Horoscope is a big, fat lie people use to justify their actions and pass time? I really think stars and planets can affect our personalities to a certain degree although I’d hardly go as far to say that I’m 100% into all those stuff.

Aisam and Faha’s divorce......Facebook is Responsible

Aisam and Faha’s divorce: hidden role of Facebook

 
Karachi: The news of Aisam ul Haq Qureshi, only popular tennis player of Pakistan and Faha Akmal Makhdom getting divorced is everywhere and so are the theories behind their separation.

But something that surprisingly everyone has forgotten is the role of social media in this divorce.
Few months ago, there was news of Faha’s Facebook account being hacked. And lately her account was flooded with status updates of their divorce. And the most recent update is of Faha removing Aisam’s pictures from her profile.
Whether her account was hacked or not, is still a mystery. But one thing that cannot be denied is the active presence of public figures on social media. Stars can be using it themselves or maybe fan pages are keeping them alive on the social arena.
According to an American research, Facebook is responsible for one in every five divorce in USA. And if this research is taken into the perspective here, then it makes some sense.
Maybe the social media is responsible for this fiasco of Aisam and Faha’s marriage.
