Blueberry Jam



One night, I cannot sleep and feel like cooking. So I snagged a little box of blueberry out from the fridge and made some jam. It feels so good every time I make jam. It is relaxing and joyful. Fruity sweetness just fill up your room. It makes me happier!

Moreover, homemade jam is just healthier with less preservatives.


1 portion of fruit + 1 portion of sugar + time and love = Yummy JAM



Crafty Corner










I love seeing other's handmade places / studio. I enjoy seeing creative ideas of storage. I would like my crafty corner to be more tidy. Perhaps, I am a housewife in heart =)

緊張的jujube



Photo: vintage brass earwire with fresh water pearl coins by love.jujube


看到Billie 那邊大家都努力準備星期日的 Pokfulam Market, 我既興奮又緊張! 興奮是原來有這麼多香港人都喜歡handmade, 緊張是我的首飾會有人喜歡嗎? 雖然我好喜歡beading, 也不想蝕本回家。
今次的collection我都十分喜歡,因為小店的生意都ok, 有了信心造一些香港比較少的手造首飾的物料, 例如14k金絲, 純銀絲, 藍晶 (aquamarine), 紅寶石(ruby), 玫瑰石英rose quartz等,加上我從網上搜羅的vintage Italian lockets, 銅製小珠﹑charms。

平日無fashion sense的老公都會走過「看多一眼」=)

不知道你會來看看嗎?

Lovely Studio of lovelydesign









I envy Sharilyn has such beautiful studio! Love those patterned boxes, adorable! See more at her blog, lovelydesign.

It is luxury to have a "studio" in Hong Kong. Fortunately, I have a little corner with a big long table for lots boxes, tools like pillars and hammers. My hubby always say it is a dangerous place to be :P

I love aqua







My heart melts every time I see this lovely aqua with a vintage touch!

Nice cup and saucer from jaditekate - I love Jadite's stuff. I wish I am living in US. The shipping cost to Hong Kong is too expensive! Imagine: a lovely morning + tea + a nice vintage cup :)

Summer Dreams art photo from Kristybee - Kristy's photos are always soft and dreamy!

Pale blue modern clock from uncommon - I think I need a new clock on my pale wall!

Vintage tags from PaperEclectiques - These tags inspires me for the deco of my next craft show. (Yes, I am having a craft show in Nov. More about it later.)

Toothache



Toothache has bothered me since my trip to UK and mainland. Finally I made my appointment to the dentist. Surprisingly, dentist recommended to unplug not one but two "wisdom" teeth at the same time. After 2 weeks of painful experience, lots of ice cubes padding, mouth washing, I am free now!


A custom order for my friend's sis wedding. Very romantic and autumn, peacock fresh water pearls and crystals.

Vintage Books

I love these vintage books a lot. Books were so valuable that covers were hand painted, wrapped with details and taste. It makes scrolling around book stores nowadays is less interesting!
I heart these lovely botanical prints via Modish.

UK trip

I am back... from UK and then mainland China. And I survived from my surgery of unplugging 2 wisdom teeth the same time. (Thanks for the advices I read at cocoabean's.) I would love to share my UK trip with you while there are still stitches in my mouth. (horror, right! heeehhee)

Lovely flowers @ St. Pancras station.

We were waiting the train at Retford, no man land to Sheffield.


Lovely greens @ University of Sheffield


A comforting dinner at the resident room by myself. Better than a business dinner as a wife :) I would roll on the bed with my pjs stuffing in chips and reading my favourite magazine, Glamour!

They Star!








It is grateful that knowing there are many more handmade artists in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, I am not available to join them due to prior family issue.
They Star!
