Happy June!

Hi there!

It's June, that means it's almost the middle of the year.  How time flies, I didn't notice that my last post was 2 months ago. :( how have we been doing since our last post? Well, a lot! We've been busy building our stocks, joining craft fairs and making custom orders. And to think that we're only doing all of it during the weekends and holidays! Aahh, part of life's surprises.  I'm happy with it, it makes life more exciting.  I treat every waking day as an adventure ;)

Our new profile photo.

the art of dumpster diving

Hi there! Another week has zoomed and I was only able to make one journal, hay :( anyway, tomorrow's a new week :) looking forward to the long weekend ahead.

We've got new trash! It's becoming a habit now but what can we do? It's just there, waiting for the recycling truck. It's still new... so to make the long story short, we took it. And it's safe in the trash err craft room waiting to be transformed. Watch out for it!

Have a great week ahead!

2012

Happy new year!!! My first post for the year, yey :) Hope everyone is fine and feeling great. In 2 weeks' time, we will usher in the year of the dragon. World population will greatly rise this year due to this :)

First things first, I will skip MAAD this Friday (13th Jan). I am low on stocks and new designs. But definitely will be back on February. Like me on facebook will you? So you'll be updated. It's easy to put updates in FB than in blogger.

I'll leave you with this photo taken just this evening. It serves as an inspiration to me... hoping I can think of another way to use these... got these from the recycling bin ;)

10

Last Sunday, I walked/ran 10k. That was the first time in my life that I've walked that far. And boy, it was really a long walk! The run will start at 07:15am. We were there at around 6:45am and there were others who are earlier than us. We were far from the start line, see the photo below. Btw, I don't know that tall guy. He keeps on moving, this is the only time that he is not blocking my view of START :)

After this, I was busy running/walking... well, walking for the most part. Too bad I didn't have time to take photos of the surroundings.

This shot is taken on the last kilometer, almost there...

last 150m

finally, 10km run is finish!

It was truly a new experience for me... it's fun and I want to do it again... hopefully, next time I'll be able to run for the most part of the race... will keep you posted.

And now, on to my next marathon... rushing to make as many stocks as I can before Friday. I'll be going back to MAAD this coming Friday, 9th December, 5pm to 12mn.

do come by for your christmas shopping. we do customizations, just ask us :) hope to see you this Friday ;)

UNO!

I often hear UNO! being shouted at the office during break times. This is the favorite pasttime at my workplace, I guess this is better than chit-chatting ;) One night, after several rounds of the game, they decided to throw away some of the worn-out UNO cards. There were a lot and my heart is aching to see it go to the waste bin. To make the long story short, I mustered my courage and asked my colleagues that I want it. At first, they were shocked. Probably they're thinking that maybe I cannot afford to buy one for myself hehehe But then, I explained that I want to make something new out of it. I think they bought that explanation...

This is how it looked like.

And this is the new UNO notepad...

If you want to own one, do come down to MAAD at the Red Dot Design Museum tonight (7th Oct). We'll be there from 5pm to 12mn. This time, I will be inside the musuem. Hope to see there ;)

the after MAAD effect

It was more than a week since we participated MAAD pyjamas but I still feel the effect. I got so inspired by the people I've met, both the customers and my co-vendors. It was a totally different experience than the previous MAAD events. The crowd was awesome and the organizers did a great job. Appreciate it very much.

To start with, I didn't participate for 4 months (the last being on March). It's just that I was too busy at my day job or I lack the initiative to continue what I am doing. But everything changed after MAAD pyjamas. I got my mojo again ;)

I signed-up for the September MAAD, hopefully I get selected... and hopefully I'll be inside the museum (cross-fingers).

Also, rediscover SG covered the event. And we got tiny bit of airtime in their video hehehe click here. Our suitcase is the second to the last. Thanks rediscoverSG team.
