Holiday cards

Wondering what to do with all the greeting cards you received during the holiday? Here's a quick tip: Place them on your door in a slanting way. Looks great and presentable.

Crazyloom Single Loop Bracelet

Most of the kids at school were talking about the same thing- Crazyloom. Here is a video of my son making a single loop bracelet.

Biko

Biko is a rice cake with caramel topping or "latik". Usually served as dessert. Made out of Sweet rice and coconut milk. It is believed that eating sticky foods during New Year will bring good luck and prosperity.

Halloween 2013

Trick or Treat!!!

I made my hairdo, skirt and minion costume, but not the gorilla...

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone!!! This year my son asked me if i can make him a minion costume for Halloween and here are the pictures of how it was made.
Dave the Minion from the movie Despicable Me

                                                

It took me 3 nights in a row just to make the paper mache for the head of the minion.
Before i used the duct tape to attached together the 2 1/2 inch thick foam i have to sew them first just like how you can see on the picture of how i attached the dome to the body of the costume.



I used the yellow and felt, sew them and 2 tin cans for the goggles, painted the Gru sign and there you go!!!

Starbucks drink charm

Here is one of the charms. I made last weekend. This is made out of polymer clay. The upper right corner picture if you noticed the label it's  written backwards, it is because I flipped the photo.

Sneak peek

While the weather was not at its best today, I was buzzing like a bee in my craft room. Here is a photo of the projects I made today. I will be posting them one at a time this coming week.

Minion cake

The "Minion cake", my son requested me to bake him a minion cake for his birthday. And, here it is....

Minion

         Today is the showing for the movie Despicable Me 2. My son loves watching the trailers for this movie and can't wait to watch the movie itself. As I lay down already for the night, I thought it would be nice to surprise my son in the morning with a minion keychain. So, i went to my craft room and made this minion. In this photo, I haven't baked this one yet. (I will have to post another picture for that).
