Heart Without a Home necklace

New Layout! Cleaner :) Don't really like the song :/ but this is in fact a heart without a home :/ :/ Actually I made this a very very long time ago about when my productivity meter hit its peak. But I have realised my productivity is very limited by backgrounds to take photos against. I liked how this necklace turned out and I am never making another one. It takes on its own spirit and you can't control it at all! :(

Catch a Falling Star keychain IV

Poor neglected blog ): Here's a keychain to revive this place. Actually I made this some time ago, a long time ago, many moons ago. Okay about the same time as this hairband . I was in this phase where I would rather pick interesting, contrasting colour combinations, rather than complimenting ones. I guess peachy-orange goes quite well with cyan-blue. :) This was made with the person who complained that I made too many earrings and too little keychains in mind. As usual, I don't think you should take chances with paper stars, don't squash them, soak them in tea, er burn them, no they are definitely not fire-resistant. In the midst of trying to decide on a reasonable price, through past keychains, I've realised I never sold keychains before. And therefore I shall decide on a price now. How does $3 sound? I thought that was a reasonable price since this keychain only had two measly stars ): Here's a kao-ani for you :)

Catch a Falling Star earrings IV

My productivity in this area of life has been quite high recently. Triple earrings! How exciting! Purple, Cyan-blue, Yellow! They are all colours that go together in their own vibrant way. Dangly length (from bottom of earring hook to bottom of star) is about 3cm otherwise known as a bit more than one inch. Happy Birthday Letitia Chen , this one's for you.

Because You're My Star hairband

hehe hello it's been a long time! This is a hairband! Heh a bit unexpected hmm? I originally intended to make this another necklace but then when I was making the star many moons ago, I stopped halfway I don't know why and never continued. It's been there, half-done on my bedside drawer ever since and I didn't know how to carry on. Until recently, I looked at it and looked at it and looked at it and thought hey it would look quite nice on a hairband right? Yes, right. It started out more engineered towards some sort of sea-based colour theme and the original idea was something along the lines of a starfish... But i still think the green/blue colours are quite nice (: Hehe I think hairbands are quite fun. Perhaps more on the way? (Oh but some people have been complaining I make too many earrings and too little keychains) The hairband is about 35 cm long. The star is about 4.5 cm long at it's maximum length. About. $8.00 Leave a comment if i...

Because You're My Star necklace/keychain

I was very productive today! (: Other than completing Claire's birthday present. I finished this too (: It was quite fun and very mind-numbing to make this (: Just weaved the wire where I liked and then added beads where I liked. I personally like the outcome very much (: It works as a keychain too. But I'm sure it would get squashed. I would never dare try. $8.50, 35 cm long chain. Sold to Lidia . (: Might make something similar again some time soon. OR not ):

Take Me Home Bracelet

I haven't been here in such a long time! I've also ignored my drawer full of beads and wires and pliers and charms, all because of an evil called school! ): But do not worry, I am back, with something to account for my absence! This is actually Claire's very very very belated birthday present. But then there was the great evil of school and I never got round to completing it. But today was a very productive day (: This wasn't the only thing I completed. Claire wanted many many bicycles. I suppose three is more than enough! (: Yes? I want to make presents for many many people okay! But then ahem, there is always the great evil called school.

Music to my Ears earrings I

It's a new pair of earrings! This was more or less an experiment that I think went quite well and the original intention was it was as a birthday gift for Xiaohan ! With the success of my experiment, my intention now is to still have it as a birthday gift for Xiaohan ! Xiaohan, are you not glad? (Even if it's pretty belated!) I wanted to make double quavers at first, but then I got kind of lazy and so here is a singly, meagre quaver for you, Xiaohan . Instead of studying for history and social studies and chem and chinese like I should, I made this for you! :D :D :D :D :D 

Om Nom Nom Nom earrings I

I think it looks fairly pretty ;D I actually made this the night I posted the necklace... then I got carried away with camp and homework and forgot about this poor thing.  I was deciding whether to make it such that one earring had a biscuit and one had an ice cream but I rarely see asymmetrical earrings so I don't think it would have been a good choice... I'm selling this ;D Don't you love it when I sell things? It's going at $4. Leave a comment if you're interested. 

Om Nom Nom Nom necklace I

Hello! I haven't been here in a while! I have been busy with school, if you will believe me. I know you will! So it's the school holidays already! They pretty much only start tomorrow since it's only the weekend. But I promised myself I would finish a necklace this month! I thought I would take the whole week in procrastinating, but no! I took two days! Anyway, I've been thinking about this design/concept (if it can even be called so) for the past three months and I've finally got down to making it! I think it looks fairly pretty. It has four acrylic beads, did you spot them! And that is cake, ice cream and biscuit if you can't tell. "Omygosh, the biscuit looks so delicious!" was what a certain friend of mine said when I was buying it and so I bought it. Anyway, the chain is actually black, I buy all the metal things in black when I can! The chain itself is 60 cm long but it has an extension which adds a nifty 7 cm to it! It's for yo...

My Heart Will Go On necklace II

This is the other pendant I bought! Pretty pretty pretty! I can't decide which one is nicer :X But is it not awesomely pretty?

My Heart Will Go On necklace

Every night in my dreams I see you. I feel you. That is how I know you go on. Far across the distance And spaces between us You have come to show you go on. Near, far, wherever you are I believe that the heart does go on Once more you open the door And you're here in my heart And my heart will go on and on I bought a lovely heart-shaped pendant at Chinatown recently, two actually. They are made of some sort of sandstone, and the other one is a bronzy colour :D If you're interested, I bought it at 223-225 South Bridge Road, but it's quite hard to navigate Chinatown at all ;D And when hung on a long chain, it looks lovely by its own. :D :D :D Love can touch us one time And last for a lifetime And never go till we're one Love was when I loved you One true time I hold to In my life we'll always go on Near, far, wherever you are I believe that the heart does go on Once more you open the door And you're here in my heart And my heart will go on and on There is some lov...

Sneak Peak ;)

Haven't updated much. Haven't the time to make new stuff, so here's a sneak peek for you, my new experiment! Okay lah, actually I started on this during the holidays but ever since school started, I haven't touched it yet. Nice bokeh, no? My ultimate goal for these very shiny stars (okay lah, you can tell they are very shiny stars what!) are earrings! Yay! Although they also totally work as necklaces and other stuff. I was going to do a bit more this weekend... But I got distracted by... Neopets.

Wish Upon a Star

Well, I'm not a fan of Christmas and I don't actually commemorate the New Year. But for the sake of it, here. I hope you had a Merry Enough Christmas. And I wish you all the best in the upcoming year :D --- I hope you never lose sight of your childhood dreams.
