Three new Pandora charms which I got from the recent Pandora sale. The two cream beads are not Pandora but they are natural fossil coral I got from an Etsy seller in Jaipur, India.
From left to right: Pandora bow charm, fossil coral, Pandora heart of romance charm, fossil coral and Pandora bow charm. Charms are on the Pandora Moments Silver Open Bangle with the logo caps.
This is the third and last bracelet up for a blog giveaway this time around. A dragonfly hill tribe silver charm with two water swirl charms in between blush fresh water pearls and dyed coral beads. The bracelet is made for a 7 inch wrist but similar to the last two bracelet giveaways, I can make the adjustments to fit your wrist.

Thank you for participating. 12 entries were recorded for this giveaway. Using the random number generator, #10 was picked and the cream pearl bracelet is Lelia's. Please send me your mailing address and I will send it to you ASAP. Do let me know if you need any size adjustments made.
The colours here are reverse of the first one. Please see last week's post for pattern details. I am tempted to tat more of this in different colours. I have to bring out my other Milford Mercer Size 20 threads and decide what colours to tat with next. Shall I go colourful or neutral?
We had a craving for Har Cheong Kai (Shrimp paste fried chicken). We had lunch at a coffee shop in JB near the car wash that we frequent. We also ordered the fried bee hoon (rice vermicelli) and stir fried sweet potato leaves.
Both the vegetable and chicken were pretty good but I felt that they could have used better quality bee hoon as this was a little starchy. The bee hoon dish was better at another place in JB however over there, the wait can be quite long as it is very popular. I hate fighting the crowd for my food.
This stretchy bracelet is made with cream fresh water pearls, fuchsia Swarovski bicones and a focal enamel bead from Bangkok. It is made for an 8 inch wrist but I can adjust it to fit.
This is the second blog giveaway and they say good things come in threes. Just leave a comment here before 27 July 2018, if you want a chance to win this. I will be using the random number generator to pick a winner.

When we were visiting a friend in Shanghai last October, she had just signed a lease to open a cafe. I thought I would tat something for her cafe. Her DH designed the interior and I thought these hexagons would fit in nicely.
Tatted in Milford Mercer Size 20 in black and lemon. The pattern is from page 28 of Ha Mi-Kyoung's book 'Tatting lace with your life'. It is a variation of the pattern Butterfly Effect which is listed on page 26. If the butterfly was a bee, it would fit in perfectly.
I have not done a blog giveaway in ages. It is time to show some appreciation to readers of this blog. My way of saying thank you for your visits and your comments.
