Each individual piece is hand crafted - the flower motif and the borders. That is why there is this uneven finishing.... Every piece is unique on its own!

Some Rambling Thoughts

2008-07-20T23:09:00.002+08:00

Today, i had a rather eventful day... initially wanted to stay in, to take some photos, put up in the blog... but the lazy worm got the better out of me... : )

Anyway, i was in one of my aunty 'clothing' went to town to watch "Ten promises made to my dog" with a old pal. In the middle of the show, you can hear sniffing, crying etc... Ok, i wont say that am not touched or anything (did shed couple tears), probably, it reminded me of my relationship of the a mongrel dog that i had that passed away last week.... Yup, you bet! I was sad.. i start to have doubt... did i treat her well, nice, caring enough? Did i fulfil the commandments as a dog owner should? Anyway, she had lived to a ripeful old age... and had moved on peacefully..... sigh..

After that, visited some shop in raffles city to do a product survey... didnt know that IKEA textile is rather popular lolx hahaha.. Oh well, i shall have competitor lolx hahaha... (shall not dwell too much on it)...

Oh visited my grandma in hospital who is undergoing theraphy for mild stroke... mind you she is like in her early 90s and still going on strong... vital organs are still functioning well.. ( i wonder, will get to live that long? or will i live that long?) Time to search for "old folks" home... it will sure come in handy...

By the way, met a cousin whom technically we never get to know one another existence till recently... weird and yet comforting feeling... My dad's family members arent small - the cousins alone can easily form a football team with extra players.. but sad to say, we hardly meet or let alone know one another... does it happen to all family? or only ours? Still, Ken, it was great talking to you... if am going to another flea thinggy, will keep you posted!

Tmr another long day... sigh!

Part 2 : Care Instruction

2008-07-17T15:34:00.008+08:00

Facts About Ours Bag
(Parts 2)

Though we are only a bag, we still needs lots of Tender Loving Care.... in order to prolong our lives... So how to take good care of us?

In the midst of washing, to prevent colour runs, it will be good to add in a tea spoon of white vinegar especially the 'virgin' wash.... and not forgetting to separate us from light colour materials. You won't want your clothes or other stuff to be 'stained' by us :) Suggestion : Add in softener in your future wash to make the material softer and at the same time, it gives out a nice smell too :P (Note : for some of mine earlier batch, i have done a pre wash to test if the colour runs etc... safe to say nope, they dont). Still it is good to take precautions.

As we all know Cotton gets crumpled easily.... lines will start showing especially after few folds... how? Answer is : Iron! (Ok, i can hear some grrr sound... dont we hate ironing lolx)... But because of the way the bag is being sewed, the base etc... most of the iron board is too wide, You cant reach certain corners/areas... what to do?

Ironing Instructions

Additional tools you need : Thick Towel that is being rolled.

Step 1 : Iron the front and back the manner you would iron your blouse, skirt etc

Step 2: To iron the sides, insert the thick towel and press lightly (see pictures)

Step 3 : Switch it to the base of the bags (See Pictures)

After all has been done, Bingo! You got yourself a new bag again! Don't you think simple as ABC?

If any of you have tried any methods and work fine, do share with us. It would be nice to hear from you all :)

Thoughts about 12072008

2008-07-17T12:37:00.004+08:00

Like in one of my post, i was saying that i my sub biz did much better than my original biz... in total i read about close to 6 or 8 readings... for a new-comer it wasn't that bad (at least i covered my rent for that day lolx).

Each reading on its own was unique....... though you can easily classify them into the common categories romance, career etc.... their background, concerns to deal with etc were different.. guess this is like writing a novel, same type of content but the plot/main ppl are different. The approach is also different, probing, advising etc .... guess this is why i like tarot reading so much.... !

Card reading or whatever form of fortune reading isn't about being accurate or to foretell the future/outcome in my opinion... rather it is about how to draw the issues out, understand yourself and learn to deal with it... Like what i say in my earlier post - outcome is never cast on stones... the choice still belongs to the querent! (As requested by the camera shy Mei-An, photo has been removed)

Sold Bags 12072008

2008-07-14T22:30:00.002+08:00

Like as i was saying, instead of the main business that went on smoothly, it was my sub business that had more client... :)

Anyway thought i share with ya what i have sold that day....

This is a short handle bag.. good for a trip to the library, popular book store etc...

Singapore Island Resort - 12 July 2008

2008-07-13T22:12:00.016+08:00

Yesterday, on the 12th of July, we participated in a Flea event held in Singapore Island Resort orgainsed by Fashion Fanatics...

This time round, it was pretty much of a solo job... luckily, my aunt and my cousin came and picked me up, we were one of the few that were rather early to set up the stall lolx hahaha... This was how the stall look like...

Due to table space constraint, i did not bring much bag to sell..., looked kinda messy ya... sigh, i think my 'sales manager' will be very disappointed with me hahaha!

This is my friend Shirley, who came and keep me company for the early few hours.... In my next post, will let you all know how i met her... it was really interesting... and i think fate at a hand in it...:P

In the afternoon, another colleague of mine came to help out... Veronica is her name... she came in her blading gear...... a very interesting lady too.

This time i did quite a handful of readings.. some from owners of other stall, some was walk-in customers... It was a enriching experience ... will talk about it in my tarot post... But i thought i wanted to share this...

This lady - Shabana who provides Henna servicest... whose stall is opposite mine... we did our first "butter" trade... in exchange for a reading.. I would say her skill is very skillful. For those interested,you may want to contact her.

Meanwhile, take a look at the design she drew for me... dont they look intriguing and interesting.....

Very sad, i didnt manage to sell much bags... Look for it under the sold bag session :( I kept on telling my friends.. that instead of my main bix thriving, it was my sub-bix (tarot reading svc) that had repeating bix lolx hahaha! Oh i sold some some button earrings :)

This participation gave me a exciting, refreshing experience.. how should i put it... hmm, met a very interesting entrepreneur - actually she was my neighbour, who was selling imported earrings from Turkey.... Before she left the event, she actually entrusted her stuff to me to sell for her.....and even passed me her "gadgets" so that i can display her earrings... (Thanks Leona, i was bewildered but at the sametime, glad there are warmth, trusting people around) So folks, look out for it coming your way ya!

Oh ya, before i forgot, i had a customer whom i met in SMU, actually, came by to pay us a visit! She is a darling... And her friend was a entertainer ... he actually became my part time promoter lolx haha! Thank you to you too!

Overall, i think i had a enjoyable session despite that sales wasnt that fantastic!

Reading @ Singapore Island Resort

2008-07-12T00:30:00.001+08:00

Oh did i say tomorrow at the event i will be spending most of my time doing tarot reading? Yupx you got me right... I will be reading! So, do dropby if anyone of you interested to get a read....
