How time flies..its December already?

2011 has been a topsy turvy roller coaster for me.

But I will not go into that yet. Saving it for when my mood goes retrospective.

Dewi and I have been busy of late with personal endeavours. Thus we are taking it slower with DC but never did we stop at all. Up till now we are still fulfilling orders commitment. Just that we are not able to do new creations yet to add on to our photo album be it in our website or in our Facebook. And we are not up to planning for an appearance in the flea market just yet.

In the news : A recent order, an alphabet ring.

M Ring


Seems like the alpha mania still reigning. Review from customer : 3 December 00:08 -> ” have received. thanks! LOVE IT (: “

Of late, my little niece of 6 years old (she will be 6 tomorrow!) has shown tremendous interest in my work. She is always finding excuses to come over and she will plonk herself in my workstation urging me to keep on creating. She will on the sly take some of my leftover clay and give it her own creation. I must say I am quite impressed with her aspiration. I call her my little apprentice. So now I am assured of continuing my legacy should I retire in the future.

Her color co-ordination and her imagination dumbfounded me. She made this doughnut (well I helped her in the assembly process) with scraps of leftover clay.

Blink-Blink Doughnut

The color and idea was all hers. She went through my shelves looking for inspirations of what should be the topping and she brilliantly came up with this ensemble. Not a conventional idea at all. And simply stunning and out of the box (for a 6 years old I mean). With hot pink base and blink-blink topping. She wanted this to be made into a ring. Erm….up till now I still have not fix the ring base yet.. me bad aunt….

And just recently, I made her a necklace from pink crystal beads with an alpha A as a pendant. She paid me in her coin worth. Oh well…she was smiling from ear to ear. What more can I say? A true lady in the making.

A Necklace

Now that her birthday is approaching, I am thinking of making a special gift for her. She is anticipating something pink and blink-blink. Still no idea yet for now…waiting for inspiration….

Luv to keep on aspiring,
Noor
