Earrings for two ladies on the 18th floor @ P.Y.

I hope they will like these earrings which I made specially for them. They are in their favourite colours. The green one is for N and the pink is for M.

Handmade journals from Shelly

These journals I got from Shelly are just beautiful. She handmakes each with quality materials. Colours are vibrant with matching tags and lovely ribbons. The first one is for Sylvia. The second one is mine to catalogue my own jewellery and the third is for ED.

My kitchen

Looks like a lot of clutter. Yep, as long as I know where everything is. Still missing in the photo is the stove. Too greasy to show you. I sometimes cook in this kitchen and when I feel like it, I bake a cake. Tonight, I felt like making pizza. The dough is left to rise while I blog. The kitchen cabinets are from Ikea, the cheapest ones we could get in 1997. Doesn't look that bad.

My mother's Vanda

Vanda Miss Joaquim blooms in my mother's garden. I recently took two cuttings and trying to grow them in a pot in my balcony. May be quite impossible to get it to flower as it needs full sun. It is the national flower but it's not widely planted. Let's see whether it will grow in my balcony.

Above is my tatted version of the Vanda Miss Joaquim flower. I'm still experimenting. Which one best represents it? Neither?
