Here’s what a section of my desk looks like after a weekend of working on and finishing orders: Not so pretty! Unfortunately I didn’t manage to take proper pictures of everything I completed, but hopefully my customers’ll send me some shots of how they use their new paper accessories. ;] And yes, there are four [...]

Laureen’s Wedding: Hanging Tags, Banner
Just in time for Valentine’s Day– here’s some real-life love in action that I was delighted to have been a part of! Remember these couple of posts, where I shared photos of a custom wedding order I was working on? My customer was sweet enough to follow-up with photos of her special day, and here [...]
B’s Christmas Party
First of all, I do understand that the 12 days of Christmas are truly over, and there’s no point in deluding myself. The thing is, I have so many Christmas-related posts to share which I couldn’t finish in November and December, even when I was blogging twice a day! So we’re going to have a [...]
Custom Wedding Decor: Banner and Hanging Tags
A few days ago, I blogged about these custom Wedding Hanging Tags I made for a customer. She’s since picked them up, and I believe she’s getting married today! I thought it’d be timely to share what I made for her wedding decor. I received an e-mail from the most offbeat Singaporean bride I’ve ever met, [...]
Halloween Die-Cut Banner
Now that I’ve recovered from the madness of Halloween, here’s a little banner I made for the spooky little 31st of October! A pumpkin, a haunted house, and a black cat! Strung together with silver string. I picked typical Halloween colours of course, and used a crackled-looking paper to heighten its spookiness. :] This hung [...]

As some of you may already know, I’m graduating this semester with a B.A. (Honours) in English Literature, and that also means I’m tackling the horror [...]
Virus Schmirus
Hello everyone! Just a quick one to explain my absence since the Raw booth– I am down with a virus and have a new job: languishing in bed daily. I hope to be back in tip-top shape soon, so check back where I’ll have proper photos of the booth! For now, here’s a picture of [...]
Hang-Ups (Literally)
Here’s a photo of a section of my brother’s cubicle at the office. Those are two of my papery gifts to him! One is a price tag that proclaims his worth to be $0.00! Typewritten with my beauty, my precious, the Depression-era Senior. The other is a pseudo Singapore pennant flag (of the I Heart [...]

Thanks for your patience, folks! The I Heart Singapore Flutter Pennant Banner is now up on Etsy! SGD12 and SGD18 for the small and large banners respectively. I think I’ve gone a bit off my rocker, as my item description is a little loopy. But anyway, here’s a peek: Reasons why you want this banner: [...]
Celebrate National Day in Style
Different countries have different ways of referring to their birthdays– Canada has Canada Day, the U.S. has the fourth of July, and we in Singapore have National Day. Generally, school children belt out songs with terribly unimaginative tunes, beats, and lyrics (although we all know that we secretly have a soft spot for them!), families [...]
