new gem, roundelle, crimps = new watch, bracelet ..

Yeah.. so my orders have arrived.. wheew.. they looks good.. yummmy... :))

Well, if you thought is some food.. sorry, they aren't; yet i am so "full" especially after having my hands on them and whoala... pretty!! of coz and that is "to the eyes of the beholder" ya... ha..ha..

The gem in this bracelet is Silver Needle Agate Barrel with the Orange/Light Blue Roundelle finished off with the 3x2mm Twisted crimp tube and of coz ends of with nice small silver twisted toggle clasp. All these are my 1st attempt of material from Artbeads; ordered them on-line, it took less than 10 days to arrive and unexpectantly they were so much prettier.. Thought i did make a simple pair of earrings to go along.. here it is..

Luv the turn-out of the twisted crimp tube so much, as it really gaves a nice finished end-off then those usual normal crimp which kinda plain and nothing special. So i re-make one of my labradorite bracelet into a "watch-strap" with a simple round watch face gotten from Evonne some many many months ago..

Before i knew it..month is ending..

It's just hard to believe that before i actually steps into June..the month is ending soon in about another week.. gosh!!

Physically was not too well, 1st i had a "trip & fell" and gotten a little "tear" on my right palm whereas "blue-black" here & there over my knee and lower leg area. Just thought everything was fine, gotten infected with UTI.. oh.. gosh.. it was terrible.. Not only was the pain but i was scare stiff if anything was going worst, until Dr Eunice Chua, check, scan and test that everything is alright, and assured me that all i need is lots of water, a week of antibotics and cranberry juice subsequent. So.. i have recovered and well now, though tired in mental; physical; emotion occassionally resulting from mom's attention. Lord give me strength pls!!

Have not been blogging but craft still goes on at my "back-drop".. had my hands on sewing pouches and a bible cover for myself and ..hmmm.. amazingly they turn out nice especially the bible cover. a couple of pic here to "show-off" a little..

art therapy, coloring, symbols, mandalas ...

It was all nice & fun to have attended tis class.. wish it could have been longer though.. coz it was so nice tucking into those color pencil box, picking up colors that u love & like and shading all over. 2 simple mandalas template were provided for our used. Well, it was a "mind-opening" lesson; of which i learn and knew; different colors represent moods & feelings; so is some simple symbols that Bryan 老师 shared with us.

this is my 1st completed piece during the lesson. Colored 2 more subsequently .. when i place them together i notice the color range varies, somehow there ain't any repeat in any sequence .. Bryan 老师 shared that it is not only fun but it's relaxing, i.e. letting your hands & thoughts runs, enjoy drawing, feels & colors, he even encourage us to keep them in file, frame them up too!! ooop.. i think i will when someday i go for the calligraphy drawing / painting class .. arh.. perhaps i should take a half-day break for it :)

It may be a 2-hour workshop, but it is truly interesting, learning more how drawing and colouring could help heal & focus .. anyway it is fun.. oohh..oh.. time is running i gonna get ready & go for the wedding dinner ..

Bezelled Ball-Early Christmas Gift presented..

This necklace could simply finished in probably 1-2-hrs at most. But it took me about 2 days+ cos needing to mingle between house chaos & mum's need during weekend. The white ball encircled [bezelled] with wired-round tooks more time, as needing & ensuring that the wire falls neatly side by side and the length of it that would be sufficient to go round the entire ball without any joinings.

Well, is worth the hardworks..when it was presented to Janet yesterday when we met for a "quick cuppa of coffee" at J-O-Donuts.

The "wow" expression and admiration of the craftmanships already gives much reward ++plus her appreciation of my thoughts in this gift such as "gold", "white" and "yellow" which is her favourite colors.

Likewise, Pauline was so happy to receive the "Y" rose-quartz necklace. They both exclaimed that is kind of too early to receive this "X'mas Gift"., but knowing that all our different work/ personal time schedule are kind of rather difficult to arrange and having the year end festives running in, not knowing when would be our possible get-together.

Three-some of us always treasure our get-together even it's only an hour or so. :p

Christmas..seems like few days ago..

Christmas is coming..so, is another season of the year again. Hmm..not like the norm; which is usually said "is just like yesterday".. a little diff.. i would say "seems like just a few days ago.." which i guess most would agree?.. ha ha :p

Well, well, have started or rather i have already make some crafts for christmas gift.. here is one done in wirework "Y" necklace for my dear pauline [she's my formal patchwork teacher].

They are 5mm red & 5mm garnet swarovski crystal with a rose quartz as d centre drop. .. how is it? .. well hope Pauline likes it..

Root Beer Spiral-HL-N01..

Hmm.. not too bad, in fact it turns out prettier than what i expect! Now what shall i name? Since the beads colors is mark "root beer" and looks kind of shiny, twinny brown.. alright, shall name it "Root Beer Spiral" !! Yeah..

Actually, tis d 2nd piece i made. Completed the 1st piece and sold upon someone's liking, the colors of the leaves varies from this piece as she prefer light & dark brown. Was such a short notice that i miss out snapping the picture; well, she loves it so much that i thought, arh huh..why dont i bead another since i have some left over beads?; thus i have a different set of leaves for this piece which turns out nice too.. ya?
