Ka'bah Boxes

2015 in general went by quick. Apart from one very big event my sister had her baby! A beautiful baby girl. She didn't want any pictures up until she's a little older so I won't be making a post about it until the summer probably. For now you can enjoy this picture of her itty bitty toes:


The rest of 2015 was filled with weddings. Every season is wedding season. There were six weddings to be exact, two of which I missed regrettably but I was out of country so there was nothing that could be done. :( Three in Maryland, one in Texas, one in Virginia and one in Pakistan. I did have loads of fun at the last one. :D

Anyways the next main event to come was EID!! Woohoo! Now every Eid I try and do something special whether it's whipping up a sweet dessert, making something for the masjid or DIY craft! The latter is what I did this year. This is more of a Hajj gift but I decided to make them for Eid. Once you get the hang of the Origami bit the rest is easy peasy lemon squeezy. You really only need like 3 things. Black construction paper, thin gold ribbon and chocolate. Scissors and tape is something you probably have at home.

Look how cute they are!
