box


My sister received a box of Japanese biscuits that came in this pretty box, mum kept it for me knowing I never have enough of storage boxes ;)


Instead I'm using this as a photo background, the house doodles are too cute to be stored away!
Agree? :)

Only pity is that it's made of cardboard instead of metal, a bit flimsy for long-term use.
I certainly need to be more gentle with this!

midnight: mysterious, romance, intrigue!

The etsy treasury is such a fun place to discover gorgeous stores, I was included in this (thank you!) and found some pretty things worth checking out:


not that I dare to put this shade on, but it's nice to look at ;)
(alright, I don't even wear lipstick, lol)


 beautiful abstract art from ara133photography


this is lovely too, by JamiesArt


Last but not least, Jessica's Little Shop of Illustrations, click on it! 

oh man, I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this store, here are more illustrations I love by Jessica, I can't tell you which I like best, too hard to pick just one ;)



I hope you enjoy these picks, isn't etsy full of super talented artists?
I'm constantly amazed at the things these people can do!

christmas!

time flies and the annual year end rush is here again.
christmas in malaysia = extremely crowded malls + massive traffic jam everywhere.
(yes, we asians simply love spending hours at malls!)

My house is in the midst of a cluster of hugely popular malls, to the extent that shoppers park their cars behind my house . Getting out of the house this holiday season means heading straight to all day long traffic congestion :)

Anyway, this isn't the point of this blog post (though I seem to have written quite a bit, i'm easily distracted!), here are such awesome gift wrapping ideas, the best I have seen this year!

If I were to receive something wrapped like this, nevermind the content, most likely I wouldn't open it, too pretty!

Merry Christmas! ♥

soar

I like looking at hand stamped jewellery, but if you were to offer me one I would have no idea what to 'stamp' on it. I'm not one who likes to wear my name on my neck, not fond of family names either, probably a favourite Scripture (that would be hard too as I have too many favourites), but then again Scriptures are way too long to fit into a tiny little pendant.

Finally, I found one I really like, here it is:

Necklace found here  @ The Rusted Chain

The word 'soar' has a special place in my heart, "soaring on wings like eagles", so goes Isaiah :)

I was loaned a book on eagles by a friend in church, it talks about how majestic eagles are, and how they soar above the storm (literally). 

Admittedly I didn't finish the book before returning so that is basically all I can remember, doesn't matter, eagles are still cool.
(I like owls as well, guess I caught the etsy bug too!)

Back to the necklace, I will get it one fine day when I feel rich ;)

Most adorable bookends ever!

I was just browsing the etsy treasury and stumbled upon this:



Cutest bookends my eyes have ever seen.
I love this owl, even my sister said 'this is so you!'




available in other designs too


but of course, nothing beats this: the bookshelf!

imagine having the whole collection with this shelf, I don't think I will put any books on it, they look too good as it is ;)


Here's the store: graphicspaceswood
