Enough Time For One Post, Maybe

Since my cousin went to the bank, she has allowed me to use her laptop for now. Yay! So I thought I'd share some of the customizations I've made recently.

I had a request to remake BK016 bookmark - remember the mermaid one with blue and green glass beads? Well, this customer requested to change it to pearls instead, and the result looks pretty grungy + sophisticated. :)

At first, I used white and grey pearls. She also requested to have more sea-themed charms than pearls.





Therefore, BK018 Rosalyn was born! However, my customer preferred all white pearls, so I removed the grey ones. It no longer looked grungy, but it exudes pure sphistication. :)

This is BK019 Rosalyn White.







Hope your friend will be happy with this bookmark, Rosalyn! :)

Being Away

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I will not be able to reply any e-mails this week as I'm back in my dad's hometown in Ipoh to grieve for the passing of my beloved grandmother. I may not be able to come online as frequently. I apologize for any inconvenience caused.

To my friends who have learnt the news and texted me, I sincerely thank you for your kind words and support. :)

Swirly Star Necklace

I think the swirls in the star pendant look really nice. I conjured up this necklace with Christmas in mind, focusing on the star which appeared two thousand years ago to mark the birth of a Messiah. :) Let this lovely and dainty necklace adorn your collarbone!

Cheese!

That's was my first thought when I saw this chain. Looks quirky, doesn't it? Reminds me of those cartoonish cheese with holes in them.

My colleague requested for this customized set. She could hardly keep her excitement down and asked me every day at work about her bracelet and earrings which were in the making. :p So cute la you, June!

Snowdrops

Christmas is coming! Snowdrops are falling! Teehee. :) Here's a bracelet I've created, with white, purity and snowdrops in mind. A pair of tiny flying birds adorn the toggle clasp. I didn't like the idea of putting just one bird because it'd look lonely there, so I added a friend!

Otherwise, it makes a great gift too, for a friend who always has her nose buried in a good book. :)

Vintage Flowers

Here's a bracelet I've created last night - inspired by a design in this book called French-Inspired Jewelry by Kaari Meng which my friend bought for my birthday. Absolutely love the flowers, leaves and butterflies combination!

A few of the glass flowers are very slightly chipped though, but that does not affect the overall look of the bracelet. I'll have to say, this bracelet is not for fussy buyers? :p

Post Production Blues

It's finally over.. all the bi-weekly rehearsals and the performances at Panggung Bandaraya. I'm going to miss them, especially the cast and crew who have grown to become friends. My heartiest gratitude too, to all you dearies who went for the performance! Thank you for your support. :)

Here are some pictures for you to see..
