This set was conceptualized in dreamland. I thought, would it be possible to twirl a length of soft wire with seed beads on another wire? It was tough work, but i'm happy with the results ;D

Yep, and right after typing out the last entry, i found the wiring missing from my table and proceeded taking the next 5 minutes on my hands and knees scrutinizing the carpet floor.

2009-06-11T13:56:00.000+08:00

with all the twirling of hard wire and the amount of concentration it takes to make a pair of earrings look perfectly symmetrical, my pupils are starting to grow closer to each other.

not good.

Wondering

2009-06-10T12:47:00.001+08:00

I'm trying to figure out if there's anything else i can do to make this site more attractive sight-wise and to attract more traffic. Any suggestions?

PS: i wish there were more prawns in soupy prawn noodles instead of 2 pieces sliced 3 times over.

James is at work one day when he notices that his colleague, Joe, is wearing
an earring.

James knows that Joe is normally quite a conservative fellow,
so he's particularly curious about Joe's sudden fashion conversion.

"Hey Joe," James yells, "I didn't know you were into earrings."

"Don't make such a big deal out of it! It's only an earring," says Joe
sheepishly.

"No, really," James probes, "how long have you been wearing one?"

"Ever since my wife found it in our bed."

It feels like mugging for an exam, only enjoyable

Right after dinner, i've been at it non-stop (apart from taking the dogs downstairs to pee) since 7.30pm and i've only just stopped.

Hello!

I've always enjoyed handicrafts and I've gone from painting, sketching, origami, sewing beads onto my clothes, to making necklaces and earrings.

This site will very likely only show the earrings i have hand-made. I only make 1 individual pair each time, so once it's gone, i won't likely make another identical pair. More will be put up soon.
