Local talents :)


I've recently joined the etsy teams to get to know more people in etsy, and the Singapore etsy team is one of the first few I've chosen to be a part of! It's nice to be in a community full of local talent, and it was a pleasant surprise to find out that I was featured in this beautiful treasury today!

Please click on the image to check out the wonderful items handmade by Singaporean crafters. :)

Winter's here,

And everyone's starting to keep a look out for some great stocking stuffers! Things are definitely easier when someone has curated a lovely treasury for you to choose from... :)

Thank you notes

It's such a joy to receive a parcel that comes with a handwritten Thank you note! And a pretty little thank you note can really make my day. And I also love writing thank you notes to my buyers, and apart from the red chinese character 樂, I'm always sourcing for different cards and notes to write my message on.

And today when I passed by a shop full of cute, whimsical stuffs, I decided to stop by and take a look. It was full of sweet, pastel looking note pads and books! and look what I found to write my Thank you note on!


I bought 2 sets of this little note pads. The size is just right for a short Thank you message. I can't wait to include it in the next parcel I'm going to send out :)


Let me know what you think! :)

Monday is great...

Because I've got no school! So the morning was spent at the market with gm, and a little shopping by myself. I bought a set of mini postcards, and on the way home I thought of a few ideas to do up the wall of my workspace! It was really quite random.


The pictures are lovely! I want to have a cup of coffee right away, out in the open under the morning sun, on a squarish little wooden table. And watch the people on the streets make their way to work.


And so this is how the wall of my work space now looks like. I made it by pasting little wooden cuboids on the wall using removable tapes, and impressed the "handmade" sign on them in brown ink. Then I used jute twine to connect the cuboids, and it is completed with the little postcards and wooden tags!

Ok I know the second row is a little ugly. It has a receipt from the post office and a to-do list. I thought since it's at my workspace I might as well make it useful!


Now i'm too busy admiring it to do work. :) Maybe it's coffee time!
