Corsages & Boutonnieres

Very bored at work so took this opportunity to update my blog.. when i change job maybe not so free liao.. made these corsages and boutonnieres some time ago but have yet to post them here.. will give to our helpers as a token of appreciation and force them to wear on our wedding day, haha.. of course, i will wear one of the wrist corsages and make B put on one of the boutonnieres as well.. :D

For our female helpers.. dun tink will use up all the wrist corsages ba..

The one in the centre is reserved for B cos the pink and clear crystals with silver ribbon matches my crystal bouquet.. hehe..

Maybe can get our fathers to put on these 2.. haha..

The rest are for our helpers, dunno who they are yet.. haha..

*Bear Bear*

Forever Friends bear bear are so cute! The big bear is the 1st gift from B, smaller one is my bday present or x'mas ar? oops :P hehe.. the bear with red hood looks like jay chou hor.. haha.. To prevent the bears from getting 'blacker', i've wrapped them in big plastic bags, kept away from my hugs.. tink mus bring the naked bear for dry cleaning soon.. i've washed the jay chou hood before so the small bear easier to maintain.. tot of sewing a shirt for the big bear.. maybe next yr when i have more time ba..

This couple bears are bought for our wedding of course.. bought from ebay.. tink it's a super old edition, can't be found in singapore.. i like the groom bear more.. bride bear looks muscular to mi.. haha.. it has a veil behind which can cover the head, tink will be more feminine if cover the head with veil ba.. haha.. these 2 bear bear will definitely be displayed on 10.10.10!

These 2 bear bear i oso dunno y i go buy.. from ebay too.. hand itchy lar.. haha.. but veri ke ai hor.. realised the older version of forever friends their eyes are horizontal slits kind.. the ones B bought are the later versions, their eyes are dot form.. prefer the new ones cos beady eyes cuter and look more innocent.. we saw precious moments at city link selling the limited edition of white forever friends bear previously but now no more already.. white one really nice but tink veri fast will become black.. haha.. more forever friends items on the way!

Welcome to 2010!

I used to feel that 2010 seems so faraway.. there's still lots of time.. but without realising it, we are already 5 days into 2010.. think time is gg to pass more quickly cos i got a lot of things to do.. teambuidling and D&D at work, 2 chalets coming up, CNY preparation, shopping for proper clothes for teaching, ROM preparation and house renovation.. there's gg to be great changes this year.. career, marriage, new home, new life totally! OMG! still find it unbelievable.. definitely looking forward to all these events..

Shall continue to update progress for our ROM preparation.. Completed 2 pieces of cross stitch work.. really got a sense of achievement leh.. no such feelings at work.. keke.. *Satisfied*

Tis design looks simple but not easy to count the small squares in between the words and mus make it fit into the photo frame i bought.. not veri fantastic but got personal touch, can't find it elsewhere!




This 2nd piece took mi quite some time to complete... so many colors, need to keep changing threads.. send it for framing.. the uncle is a Taiwanese and we had a gd chat tat time.. his workmanship is great and price is reasonable.. with and without frame really makes a big difference.. i was like 'wow!' when i saw it with the frame.. i'm loving cross stitching more!

Hope there is enough space to display them! will stop making funny things to put at reception table, too cramped! :P
