before the last heave of the loot i found in bangkok and yes, before the giveaway, a few items for sale:
- an over-sized bag (just the way i like) made with faux black leather. the insides is lined with black faux leather too so it is very durable. it can carry anything and you can even use it as an overnight bag.
- a couple of printed shirts with cool animal patches. i found this right on the last shopping day. i bought 3 and had to share the other 2 even when i wanted to keep them all. this is perfect for the casual laid-back days that we all have. (admit it, you do have a shirt + shorts + flats day)
For local readers outside Cebu, standard shipping fee is P150. If you purchase more than 2 items, shipping fee is for free. Payment accepted is through PayPal, Gcash or direct deposit to my BPI account.
For Cebu readers, I can do meet-ups or you can pick the item up at Drawingboard. E-mail me so I can give you my mobile number and the directions to the Drawingboard office.
For international readers, standard shipping fee is $15. Payment is accepted only through PayPal.
now on the shopping loot:
i cannot wait to go back and shop shop SHOP! and finally….

Published by Gizelle Faye Creative Studio
Hi, my name is Gizelle Faye. I am an artist, florist, stylist, calligrapher, letterer, mum, and wife to Harry.
I am a bohemian risk-taker who fell in love with an old soul. Three months before our wedding in 2012, I went cuckoo and left my corporate job to pursue my dreams and founded Cuckoo Cloud Concepts. For about a decade, I was the creative director of Cuckoo Cloud Concepts, dreaming up unforgettable and picture-perfect moments from a tropical island called Cebu. I specialized and honed my skills in photo shoot styling, product styling, floristry, calligraphy, and lettering.
During the pandemic, I rediscovered my love for painting amidst the dark times. The universe proved a lot more cuckoo than me and sent me and my family on a journey that will find us in Camden, New South Wales.
But I vow to always bloom where I am planted. Today, in this new city, I host art workshops and offer social media content styling and creation, and other creative services for small businesses.
Here, you will find an archive of my paintings and other works of art inspired by nature, scenes, architecture, and BTS, as well as art events I run in different venues in Sydney.

followed you in google.. I blogged about you too in my blogger.
Wow! you are so generous to give away such nice items.. And I just want to let you know that as a Cebuana, I am super duper proud of you. My blog may not be about fashion but deep inside of us, in every heart of a Cebuana, lies the true blooded of a fashionista. Keep it up! Prove to the world that Cebuana's like us could compete with the world.
By the way, my question for you is that since you are very passionate about fashion, would you dare enough to wear bright or any neon colors attire? From head to toe everything in neon? And what would your style be?
