Monday Mellow Yellows: Minion box
Howdy, folks!
I forgot to renew my domain so this blog ‘disappeared’ from the blogosphere for a weeks. When I saw the notice from my domain registrar, it so happened that my card also expired. Hmmmpfff. I can’t even. So I had to wait till I get my new card and — tadaaaa! We are now back online 🙂
So what kept me busy was my husband’s class where Fridays are project days. I get to assist the kids in the first class (he has two classes) in whatever projects they chose for that week. The photo below are examples of their projects:
A minion suggestion box and a leprechaun cup head.
I was surprised to learn from the kids that they do not have any arts and crafts classes in public schools. So this class is a sort of introduction to them to the wonderful world of arts and crafts. I can see how awkward and clumsy they are when it comes to cutting and gluing, etc., but I think in due time they will master these skills as I’ve seen how enthusiastic they are about Friday projects.
APAD 287: Golden
The first batch of my handmade holiday cards. Hope they reach their intended destinations.
Holiday cards on their way to their respective destinations around the world.
I made use of my metallic pens and black card stock that I already have.
And, because I do not have proper calligraphy tools, I cheated! I call this faux-calligraphy. At least I tried and I think they kinda look the nice, lol. And if you’re not really convinced, well, it’s the thought that counts! *wink-wink*
Living in a Buddhist country where Christmas is not celebrated doesn’t mean we can’t join in the celebration in this most wonderful time of the year. Happy holidays everyone!
APAD 268: Colourful tapes
The holiday season is upon us again and I’ve been obsessing on these coloured adhesive tapes. They will be used for gift-wrapping and making Christmas cards.
APAD 214: Punch it!
These are some of my favourite things. Since returning to the working world, I didn’t get any chance to get some crafting done. I was hoping to make a slouchy beanie for me because of the chilly weather in Phnom Penh these days but still I haven’t touched my crochet stuff… and then I saw my paper punchers… sigh…
Haven’t had time for crafting these days…
APAD 131: Coaster
I made this myself several full moons ago… I love the combination of these three colours turned out!
Made by Sreisaat. You can find more about my crafting activities at Crafting with Sreisaat (sreisaatcrafts.wordpress.com).
I have a huge stash of crochet yarns that needed busting. These are acrylic yarns from Thailand, if I am not mistaken. The coaster is actually a granny square. I’m planning to starch it so it stays hard and in shape. The beautiful coffee mug, by the way, was bought from one of the stores found at the ground floor of the KLCC Shopping Mall. That’s nearly a decade ago and I still have it with me. It comes with a matching lid to keep the beverage – coffee or tea – warm.
A Silver Finish!
