Back from Malaysia

I am finally back fom Malaysia and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Will be preparing for a mini
event at my friend's school. Her school is having an Arts and Crafts fair and I was invited to set up shop - so to speak =).
Will be really busy making stuff to bring there!

Below are some pics taken with my grandma and relatives. We celebrated her birthday with her =).


The lady right next to Nicole is my new cousin-in-law. She was married to my cousin (standing on the far right) in January.

More miniatures

Below are some more stuff I made. Won't be able to update after the 13th as I will be in Malacca.



Will try to remember to take pics while I am there =D. Probably will go crazy with the shopping and eating too, heh!

Going Mini

I love miniature stuff, but could never figure out how to make them! I really envy the artisans
who create miniatures. Lots of patience is truly involved in the work. I was recently going through my old craft mags when a light bulb went off in my head and EUREKA! I figured out how to make something I've been thinking of for a long while.

This is a real close up of a clay miniature strawberry I made on the head of a pin.



They are meant to be used with the pin cushion I made. The object which I was talking about was the cushion =D. Go figure how I got the pic on the cloth. Past blog entries should provide the hint.

The Great Singapore Sale - At Vivo

I bought this coat rack at Ikea a couple of weeks back and didn't set it up till last night. Using it to hang all my numerous bags...which kinda increased by 2 when we went shoppint at Vivocity. The Great Singapore Sale is really the time to spend money...and I spent. We were there from 12 pm to 9 pm. ^^U


I bought this lovely coins of the world charm bracelet from the Met Museum. I love going there, because of all the lovely replica old pieces they have! I love antique looking jewelry so I splurged and bought this. It was the item I spent most on (don't ask =P)


No new creations since the last post and I have been busy shopping and given tuition. Will be away from 13th to 20th next week as my family is going for the church retreat in Malacca.

Notebooks

I love buying notebooks and the truth is I have tons of them ^^U. I just bought some lovely pens from Precious Moments shop at IMM to use with a lovely notebook I bought for myself. But there's no place for me to park the pen so I made this pen holder for it =D.


Below I made some more iron ons with leftover denim material I had on hand. This is purely inspired!



I saw some lovely fish cutouts made of felt and really wanted to make them into tiny iron ons! So here they are. I made one of another scrap cloth I had to give a contrast in colour!



This here is a piece of cloth I intended to sew as a pencil case. But I didn't know how to sew the zip on without cutting the whole thing in 2 so I removed the zip and decided to turn it into a bag. Now if only I can figure out where to put the bag handles.....

Lotsa Heads

Hehe, I have to admit, thanks to my sis, I got inspiration for making these babes. They are for sale (as in will be posted to Etsy). But if any one wants these babes, just inform me and I'll give you a discount. =)
Iron ons are now the craze for me. As well as rhinestoning anything in sight (well amost lar).
Finally went to see the doc about my almost 3 week rash prob. Thank God its solved!
