Happenings in April 2014

Before I knew it, time passes so fast that I was left behind and have

no time whatever to update my blog and also hardly find time to design

new items for my so called bazaars all over Singapore:)

Since January at Ghim Moh Chinese New Year bazaar, above picture

shows a more recent event at Ghim Moh Weekend market in April:)

 

 

Some of my more recent items sold at Chong Pang last weekend.  

To make my handmade items more attractive, I framed them up

for display:)

 

 

I wire-wrapped the coral teardrop to make the earrings

look more artistic though some buyers like simple pearl

drops:)

 

Humongous rings for the more adventurous.  I love the

golden & silver strawberries bling and there are only

one of each:)

Thank you for visiting my blog and I will try to update my blog as

soon as I have news worth mentioning:)  In the meantime,  have a nice

weekend and Happy Easter:)

Ghim Moh CNY bazaar 2014

First time we went to sell at Ghim Moh during Chinese New Year Bazaar. The market 

here is both vibrant and exciting with lots of new as well as preloved items. After the lunar 

new year celebrations, the fleamarket at GM will be held on every 2nd weekend of the

month:)  I will definitely join them again on 9th of March 2014:)  I like to thank all of

you at Ghim Moh who bought my handmade items & gifts:)  I hope to make more

interesting products for my March sale!

This is my table last Sunday at Ghim Moh and it is also the last day

of the Chinese New Year bazaar")  

 

These heart pendants will be good gifts for the coming Valentine Day on 

14th February which also falls on the 15th day of the lunar new year :)  It

is an important day for the Chinese and so there will be double celebration 

this year!

Renri @ Ghim Moh CNY Bazaar

 Today is the 7th day of Chinese New Year and it is also known as human's

birthday and a good time to get together and merry making etc  Many Chinese

celebrate today by lo hei n feasting with families n friends.  I spent my morning

today at Ghim Moh market attending to morning crowd & again the afternoon

lunch crowd before hitting home.  A happy day indeed and many customers were in 

the mood to buy gifts for family n friends, especially my handmade items which are

both unique and not mass produced:)

13 on Sunday.  Meanwhile, I am going to Redhill Blk 84 tomorrow and followed 

by Tampines Round Market on Saturday:)   I like to thank all my customers at Ghim

December has arrived:)

Is my favourite month of the year cos I can see many delightful

decorations and hear Christmas songs played in the air:) 

I am also busy churning out handmade Christmas gifts and above

are my fav pinky series tissue holders!

They are made of good materials such as 100% cotton from Japan

and linen. They keep your tissues handy and neat and the pouches 

can be washed and reused over n over again:)

I look forward to Christmas and hope that all of you are ready with

gifts for your special ones:)  Once again, thanks to those who buy 

and support handmades.

Post Mortem 30th November 2013

 I guess before November exits, I must deem it the month which I sew

the most tissue holders:) Both young & old love my handmade pouches

and the tissue holders are also ideal for Christmas gifts:)  Just buy

a few pieces and distribute them to your relatives or friends instead of

buying chocolates which are always left uneaten in the fridge!

A basket full of my handmade pouches which I brought to Teck Ghee

market today and managed to sell all except one which was stained

by my fabric pen:)  I wonder if I sell them too cheap since most customers

would buy one or two without hesitation:)  Anyhow, I am glad they like

my products and am grateful for their support!

Every piece is my labor of love and carefully sewn and hope they

land in good hands:)

The materials I used are good quality 100% cotton, made in Japan

 and the pouches can be washed and reused again:)   It is important

to have your tissues handy and also kept clean in the pouches to 

prevent them getting messy and dirty in your bag:)

My girl requested for this piece which I called "marching on" n

it contains two packets of  tissue:)  Hope she brings to school 

everyday!

Slicing strawberries for my girl who decides to make some jelly

cheese tarts for desserts:)

I am good at sewing but not cutting strawberries:)  They ended up

with funny heart shapes and my girl commented some look rather

ugly.  Anyway, the end result is not too bad, the tarts tasted well;

quite delicious, not too sweet and a little sour.  I shall not learn

how to make these from her cos I am not into baking etc  Rather

spend more time on my sewing machine:)

Thanks for visiting my blog and hope to see some of you again during

my road shows all over Singapore!
