of time chasing

I've been busy sewing and binding books again lately because I'm chasing after time! haha.. There are a few craft markets back to back with each other and I needed to prepare more journals, just in case :) After this week, I am going to busy myself with one custom order and work on my other projects and let bookbinding take a back seat for a week :)


I've been lazy yesterday but today I busy myself with running to the post office and binding my journals together ;)

Oh, I participated in Arts For Grabs the last weekend and it was fun! I had an awesome time there, as usual!! I've said it before and I'm going to say it again! I love Annexe Gallery! The crowd this time is not as packed as the previous AFG but they are still great and it also gives me the opportunity to walk around and get to know other crafters better! So, I'm pretty happy with that :)

Here's the 'loot' that I brought home with me from AFG! I love everything there but I could only bring home some.. boo hoo... well, there's always next time! :)

Books from local authors

2 bookmarks, fabrics, coaster tile and magnet

This weekend, I'm going to be at the National Horse Show, Cheers2Art and another event if it's confirmed! Whoa... gonna be packed!!! :D

T'was ended a great weekend

I fell in love with Annexe Gallery ever since I went for a photo-shooting session with my friend to Central Market early last year. That was the first time I stumbled upon Annexe Gallery and the other quaint shops downstairs. I love the character and the feel that place exudes. Somehow, it is just an artsy place :)

Just this past weekend, I participated in Annexe Gallery's Arts for Grabs + KL Alternative Bookfest. This is my second foray there, selling my handstitched journals and other handmade knick knacks and I loved every second that I spent there :)

The crowd was constantly flowing in from the start on Saturday, all the way to the end on Sunday. I don't even have time to go around and shop myself :P At one point, I don't even have time to go to the washroom! LOL. 

I had a great weekend thanks to the A-team over at Annexe Gallery (Pang, Lee Kwang and Lali), my precious friends Nadiah and Rekha and of course, to all of you who visited, stopped by and bought my handmade journals & knick knacks! I really appreciate you! 

A big "Thank You" shout out to all of you! :)

Arts for Grabs!

I had the most fun the last weekend! This is my first time participating in a handmade art market (I don't think there's many in Malaysia as well) and it was the jolliest time for me in quite a while! 


I met so many indie artists and fell in love with so many things but I had to resist temptation and I only spend on a handbound notebook. Well, I have a very, very soft spot for stationaries..... and notebook is one of them! It is a very lovely notebook! And the seller offers classes which I already signed up for! :P

My hanging wall deco :)

My stall shared with Alvin... have to think of better ways to display in the future to accommodate more things! :P

My 'shop' name! :) Hand-drawn & hand-stamped

Some of the things for sale

My notecards were very well received!

Stuck some cards on the wall to grab attention

As far as experience goes, AFG has given me a good one & I made quite a few good friends. My neighbour and I even collaborated towards the end of the second day selling my mum's handmade blooms which she turned into a pin. She pinned it on her tudung, and I immediately got sales! lol! We're gonna talk about how to go further into it! :P
