My works






I have sold many jewelries and other artsy crafts i made. I have not been doing any of it though since I started my other full time paying job. I did one more show and I should have been doing some Christmas show by next month and yet I have not done anything really new or at least remodelled and redesign some of my projects.

I am sad that this playful part of me is not being used and practice. I am sad that I am getting less energy and enthusiasm when I am still doing the motherly task of taking care of my kids.
I wake up at about 7 am and sleep at about 12 am. In between is my parenting,working and daydreaming happening in everyday of my new life.

I found some of my works and arts that i have or have sold...
Please enjoy these photos and see if you see something that caught your eyes.

Laundry Bag



I sew this last night and is happy how it turned out. I made a laundry bag from my stash of fabrics. This material has been in my sewing box for 7-8 years. It is made out of the same material as that of poly shower curtain. Easy to clean/wash and dry, very light and the design is nautically just right for wetting and beaching. This can be use as a big blanket,pillows and stuff toys ready to go bag. This is especially made for a friend whom when we went to their laundry depot...they have to carry the white bedsheet with all other bedddings cover in it.

This is an easy project which I finished in 30 minutes as I can't find my good shears/scissors.As you can see in the backround, I can make more projects out of it...simple ones I can finish quickly can be a grocery bag, another bigger laundry bag, small pocket bags for everything and maybe a gift bag too. It is reusable and great in keeping things together.

Materials used? Gray thread,scissors and my Brother sewing machine and some straight and a bit zigzag sewing and that thing you used to slide in the pocket to get in the handle/string made for closure.
