Mini Wedding Dolls

My amigurumi kit parcel finally arrived. And so what's in my amigurumi kit package? Hmm..... Let's see. I got some free gifts. And also a sampler i requested for free wedding favour. Isn't this cute? And so tempting! And also free mini memos. You know what this reminds me of? a little of the olden days when all the needles are kept. I think this is also suitable to make into a wedding favour? And a crochet flower. I can make this into a key chain or a brooch. So sweet of the Lis from saplanets. So i got 5 rolls of wool and 2 bags of fillings to make my dolls. I haven crochet for sometime. This is definitely going to be challenging. But if need to save a little money and learn something new. Its worth a try. So this should be the final output from my crochet. Let's see how long i take to this pair and how similar it will look like this pair. For brides, interested in getting the kit or completed dolls: www.simpleartsplanet.com

Gold (Au)

Definition of karatage in gold content for recognised international standards It good to have some knowledge on gold. Knowing the industry standard and whether you're buying the best value for money either in terms of your dowry and 4 point gold (四点金). Pure gold is used more for investment than decoration, and it tends to be quite vulnerable to scratching. Alloys Gold in its finest state (24 carat) is generally considered too soft and too malleable to use as jewellery. When craftsmen make jewellery, they mix fine gold with other metals (generally silver, copper or palladium) to create gold alloys. This not only hardens it, but also influences the colour; white shades are achieved by alloying gold with silver, nickel or palladium, while red alloys mainly contain copper. You can make an alloy harder by adding nickel, or a tiny percentage of titanium. Colour Gold alloys are usually a mixture of silver, copper and zinc and the amounts of each can be varied to affect the final colour. T...

Hwee Studios

Nearly miss the opportunity of viewing the works of Hwee Studios. They are not in any of the forums nor do they have a biography of their works on their blog. The main source of information will most definitely be their website: www.hweestudios.com Amazingly, their main source of clientiele came from friend recommendations. None of my friends used them by the way. How i found them? I was desperately searching for the perfect photographer and was randomly surfing at the wpjn website and found their contacts. Soon after, we arrange for a meet-up and all things finally fall into place. Chatted up with Apple on the day we sign up and she does give me the assurance of being the right one. Hopefully, she can thrill all of us with more fantastic photos. Till then. Tata!

Miror Creations Wedding Videography

Edited after wedding: Solitairebride review: The actual delivery is quite different from expectation and i had to keep chasing for delivery. It was very much delayed 1.5 months with me contacting him every day on the final week and i had to picked up the final product at his place and he refused to see us. The MTV style video is ok but the requested song that i've sent him was not used. Such oversight! The after sales service leaves much to be desired. ================== Let me introduce my affable videographer, Ernest who turned his passion to his profession. Got to know of his works through a mutual friend and was visibly impressed with his MTV style highlights. So we made a trip to his place where he show us his works. By far, his edits made the deepest and most lasting impression. Love express highlights and MTV style full day highlights to the bits. We're also shown snippets from an actual day DVD. Though, maybe if the main page f...
