The article is finally out!


It's amazing that this hobby turned side business that I started just 3 months ago had already caught the media's attention! This is a true testament that if one wants to grow a tree, one has to first plant a seed. I planted mine and it had blossomed into something beautiful that makes people smile. Sometimes it's the simple things in life that matters most! And I'm glad that I've managed to offer one of it...

Pictures of my latest experiment - hand sewn fabric bookmarks and shots from Kaka Art Market










I had a great time at the market today. It was quite an experience and seeing people reacting positively to my craft was most satisfying. I had customers who told me that they would never consider giving away my greeting cards simply because they are too pretty to part with and that made my day! I especially enjoyed watching the many talented young people showcasing their unique creations. My neighbour Michelle was selling handmade costume jewelry and jams. What's interesting is that she like myself has a full time job and yet found time to turn her hobby into a side income. How on earth did we managed to squeeze in time???

All's well at the market, I managed to sell seven items altogether, not exactly what I had anticipated but nevertheless an enjoyable event. I'm looking forward to my next debut at Bangsar Shopping Centre next month!

Say what???


Sometimes the best results are borne from negative feedbacks/remarks. It is our perogative to either let it get us down or to turn it around and see it as a challenge to better ourselves. I choose the latter.

A smelly bug tried to make me feel small today but guess what? Taaadaaaaa! My latest experiment - a hand drawn card using metallic silver pen! Am loving it :)

This card was sold to a friend. She had wanted something 'unusual' to give to her friend for her birthday.
