Like I said before, my product is featured on March Boudoir catalogue by Aperture Indonesia!  Aperture Image Factory is an Indonesian based company, who will  listen to all your dreams and inspirations that you wish to capture!  They will handle your delicate request profesionally, and of course make them come true 

See the necklace on the model’s hair? Yep, that’s the necklace I made! The original photo in the catalogue had my personal review >3< And here’s what I wrote:

“simple piece of vintage style art, one of my favorite. Altough usually designated with pastel colors,  I like to make it more lively with bright colors. That’s the reason the blue  mineral stones were chosen for the butterfly  ornamented with randomly picked metal roses”

Finally I managed time to finish this little buddy! After this I’m gonna take another short break, gotta finish my thesis revision >.< As planned before I want to make special offer for japanese food set: I’m gonna sell only like 5 sets at maximum…and I will give bonus 1 random sushi to the first three who booked them xD how exciting is that? x3

And this little sushi roll have a little secret…she said..”Pssst, see what I have inside. Open me!” And here’s what she’s got:

INSIDE PARTS ARE SMALLER SIZE PLUSHES:

SHRIMP, ASPARAGUS & EGGROLL

But then, she’s all alone!  She ran along and found one lost onigiri…and she make friends with him..They looked happy, right?

And now..of she goes! Since I will be taking a break, sushi roll-san had the duty to examine this  mini glass jar for my next project! >3<

“Oh crap, I’m trapped!”

craft swap!!

As I said before, I’m expanding things here…No, not sponsors/affies..I’m still waiting something..it’s about the craft swap!  Finally got my very first craft swap with sist Aphrodita from Cemprut ! x3

Yesterday I received this little package while I was taking photos of my stuffs. Guess what, she named this moustachy guy JUDE! haha, that’s really nice isn’t it?

The plushie is a part of the ‘Cem-cem Family’. I haven’t met the rest of them but I’m really curious on how cute they might look like! You can peek her blog if  you’re as curious as I am ;D The plushie is small and huggable, made from leftofers such as corduray, felt, colorful buttons, cheerful motives cotton: all the things everyone will fall in love with! And this is a great use of leftofers right ;3 (psst..some of my plushes also used leftofers too! But not all..Guess she did better than I do).

And since mister moustachy Jude had travel in a long journey…I summon him to meet my onigiris and have lunch..ehh I mean have a chat

And you see, the onigiris are happy too! See them smile This three onigiris are made for an order…I’m also gonna make some sushi rolls to fill up the batch ;D

You see now, handmades is not just an art, it’s full of love ^3^ I REALLY LOVE my very first craft swap!!! <3 So, anyone else who would love to do craft swap with me? x9

JAPANESE AFTERNOON TEA TIME

ENGLISH STYLE TEA TIME

INDONESIAN TEA HOUR

Well there you go, hope you had a nice weekend too, and get ready for the upcoming monday. See ya, be back soon

random fascinating stuffs

Look at this super cute panda plushes sofa. Not sure if I even have a heart to sit on it :9

And this cute coffee cup? Gosh this cup could ruin my skin and health for not being able to stop drinking coffee LMAO..Besides, the cat is too cute! xD

Coming up next, is the super stylish sofa! Gawd this is so creative..and indeed, creative at the same time. Amazing!  This thing could look like one enermous deco, and at the other time could turn to such a cozy sofa. Brilliant idea to save space

Last but not least..the one that I would die to have one in my house..Although not sure how to feed the fish or how to clean the tank. But who really cares? This is just awesome! I always love  bringing the outdoor atmosphere into the room. Haha, and tell ya what, I treasure bath time soooo much xD  I normally spent like, more than one hour to take a shower.. But if I have this thing maybe I will go back to the bathroom every 5 minutes, hahaha..Anyhow that’s my fave. Which one is yours?

sunflower ring with batik motive style!

I ordered this from a local silver crafter, and this is custom made I give them reference pic I got from the internet and I modify the design here and there, and the crafter give a little bit more Indonesian style look: batik style-flower carved in the side of the ring. Wonderful! Especially when batik (officially admitted by UNESCO as Indonesian  original fabric craft)  is now very popular worldwide  <3

Ah btw, my newest product will be featured in Aperture Indonesia’s photosoot! I am now writing the review of my product and will post the pics as soon as I receive the photos from them. Really love to have them as affies! Made it in a rush for the photoshoot, but trust me I used fine materials such as real mineral stones. Wanna see? Please stay tuned ;3

sneakery peekery :9

Folks I’m planning to close my shop temporarily due to a short break. The reason is plenty. First of all I need more time to prepare designs, no more making based on intuition only. I really want to do this more seriously, designing items, at least with a clear rough sketch, measuring and stuffs. As art is about passion, I need to find the chemistry to make the new stuffs, since I am not that satisfied with my previous products. I am an otodidak crafter, I love to learn by myself and observing other crafters, but indeed, I still have way so much to learn. I believe a great art requires not just a proper ability, but the right chemistry and passion, also the right materials. And that’s a lot of stuffs to work with, haha.

Next, I am announcing two things. First,  as I said I am going to release new stuffs, and here’s one sneak peek of one of them. This petite teacup phone strap is not done yet, though. Still need to add vintage style chain and swarovsky (as seen on pic).

Other stuffs I’m gonna work with is jajan pasar plushes (Indonesian traditional snacks). Some designs will be contributed by my product designer fella, Mr.Bullyzuar Adam a.k.a Inno. Thankyou very much! ;D

Second, I am going to close my shop temporarily around 1-8th April. Yes, I need a break. I am fully loaded with school and projects, including projects outside this shop. It keeps flowing and if I can’t improve in time managing, I’ll surely be drowned >.< I have to admit I’m pathetic in time management. Hmm anyone got any idea to do better in this?

Meanwhile, I am going to relax my mind with this pics. This river is insanely enchanting, the Caristales river in Columbia. Got this pics forwaded from my mum…Can you believe this river got 5 different color glaze in it’s water? Gotta flee there someday! Alas, yeah now is relaxing time *sipping apple tea :9

cookie of the day

Yeah as tea time  isn’t complete without nibbling cookies, a new little business like mine won’t be complete without good affiliations! <3 Will come up with great affies. still a secret but will tell you soon

Ah and I did mention about a cookie, eh? Yeah I know this pic is not eligible to be posted (yeah my poor cam phone, I don’t blame you baby) but say, this is just a sneak peek haha..anyway the cookie is just for accompanying the tea cup plush. sounds nice. tea cup and cookie, haha

Ok and I’m coming up with err..stuffs that actually I’m suppose to prepare earlier, like product tag but now I’m still ordering the design. geez I’m a dork ^^;  And I’m also coming up with new plush designs, and also some other stuffs I’m going to tell later

Btw speaking of sneak peek, I gotta DIY dress project, madeout from a tee (from my boyfriend) and a tanktop (bought it cheap hehe). Yeah, another inappropriate pic and halfdone stuff. But I’m still happy to show you this:

Weekend is so nearby, have a great time! >3<

vintage memory holder

Made this in a rush for an order. Really tried to do my best in a short time since I must ship this to Pekanbaru >.< actually want to add some details with small crystals but really have no time for that. Someone whose supposed to receive this is leaving abroad soon, so gotta send this asap.

Putting the glass on the frame and made it stood still is the worst part for me. Decorating is my fave but have to skip that Still looks quite ok to me though..What do you think? ^^;
