sneak peek

i've been really busy but here's a little sneak peek of round 2 of the NUS bazaar on 16th and 17th feb :)

thank God for His wonderful provision :)

children's day 2011 - part 1

i must say that i (maybe PP too!) regretted many times after we embarked on this project. it was TOUGH! on top of the fact we had to juggle several things to. nonetheless, it was a small gesture on our part to show our love to our students. hope they liked it!

important things you need to embark on this project:

1) do it with a smile :)

2) a nifty pretty stamp - bought or carved by a dear one like PP :)

3) alphabet stamps (i got mine from Kikki K!)

4) it's always nice to have someone to stand by you in the projects you do :)

PP and i purchased canvas bags in bulk. thank God for leading us to a reasonable source, where we managed to get them for less than $3 a bag :)

thereafter, stamp, stamp, stamp and stamp somemore...! and this is what you should get :)

as for the other side of the bag, we created a design, and printed it on iron-on fabric transfer paper (i have used them here and here before)

here's the end result :)

we packed it with cheezels (i promise you this is a must), snacks and stationery. did the kids like it? i think so. one of my favourite students, E, declared, "I'm going to keep this until it grows mould! awww <3

 

 

bazaar pictures

thank God for sustaining us through the bazaar. it was a really lovely experience, meeting all the lovely people! i can't help but feel that there is this strange connection i share with my customers. i love how we both share an appreciation of pretty things, and i am also very thankful for their sweet support in many ways!

here are some pictures :)

see this sweet, pretty wooden crate? i tried sourcing for one but it was rather tough :/ unexpectedly, PP built one for me from scratch, using wooden planks from daiso! :)

learnt much, as with every time. looking forward to the next one already :)

姐，Z, J + ZH, XW+HL, 真的感谢你们下来支持我。 被你们的爱心与关怀感动了！

bazaar, again!

im stoked.

every time we approach a bazaar, my heart palpitates wildly just thinking about it, haha! yes, there are tons of preparation to do and the stress is mounting. also, it's a smaller-scale one, as im only taking part for one day and renting only one table. but still, i can't wait!

 

things to expect this season:

more hand-sewn, hand-drawn pouches for phones, instax cameras and pencils

polaroid stickers

+ photo-cards

+ bottle-cap necklaces

and other knick-knacks that hopefully, will make you smile :)
