If you love tatted lace, jewellery, plants and anything handcrafted, come back often. I will regularly post items that are made by me, plants that I grow and interesting things that I photograph.

Cathay Building - Art Deco Architecture?
Yes, in the car again, taken from my window. This building has the original building facade but a brand new one behind. Do you call this art deco style? Anyway it is quite unusual in Singapore. It was built in the 1930s and I was told, the first building in Singapore to have escalators in the 1960s. However this article on the building does not mention the escalators.
