Haul
In short: A shopping spree
Urban Dictionary
As Salamu Alikum and hi everyone!
Last week I went to Daiso and got some things that I thought I could use that would help me with some projects that I wanted to do. Now, I like seeing people’s hauls and stuff, but one day I thought to myself, ‘Hey, aren’t hauls just a way to show off? Like, a way to show off the things you got with your money?’ I suppose so… I’m still not sure. Well, obviously with that mentality I wouldn’t be posting about one now would I? That would be contradicting myself!

A little about the things I got:
I got some fluff, because I wanted to make another amigurumi and use the right kind of stuffing. It says on the package that it swells and girl does it. I just cut off the tape that was keeping it closed and some just popped out! I was like, how did they even get it in the plastic?! It feels really nice and soft and I can’t wait to use it in an amigurumi.
I got the craft punch ‘cause I liked the pattern it makes and I have something that I hope to tell you guys about so I want to use it for one of those things. Plus, I just wanted it.
I’ve been wanting a hot glue gun for ages and ages and I finally found it at the DL (I’m so lazy so I’m not going to type it again, you’re just gonna have to figure it out.) for 18 AED. They had a bigger one but I decided to just get the smaller one. The glue sticks are 50 fills so I got 2. Boy, I realized that I need to get more ‘cause those things go fast!

The embroidery hoop actually was from a Dubai Library distributor, because I want to try embroidery out. That’s also why I got embroidery thread from Daiso.
The Styrofoam ball also came from the DL, and I actually found one that was a lot bigger at one of the stationary shops nearby my house. So I now have two different sized Styrofoam balls and the bigger one is going to be in the tutorial I will show you next Monday inshallah.
Next is a, well, wooden toilet paper holder. But that’s not what I got it for my dears. I’m going to use it along with the hot glue gun, stuffing and Styrofoam ball, plus some fabric I got around, to make something awesome! Inshallah! Next Monday!

The charms were so cute I just had to get them. I saw on Pinterest that someone used it as a stitch marker. You just need a ring and clasp and voila! You have a cute stitch marker. I think I will use the scissor charm to make one.
The washi tape, ditto. No real reason. I just wanted it. I mean I saw all these cool things people did with it on Pinterest and YouTube so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about and get some. This came in a pack of 4 and I didn’t see any other patterns besides one that was Christmassy, so I got it. I really like the alphabets tape the best.
