Some Earrings for Xmas

Believe me I tried to make as much pretties as I could today (still on leave) but the boys just don't let me. If I am around the house, they only want me to bath them, put on their clothes, pass them their bottles, feed them, etc! etc! Headache! headache! Wonder if other mom faces the same situations? So, I only managed these three pairs of earrings today. My favorite are the two wire wrapped heart earrings. One set is larger than the other. The small one is rather cute looking. The other two pairs (far right) were made with the coming Christmas in mind - Green and Red is the color of Xmas, right? I would like to make a pair of small Xmas tree earring. Mmmmm!....looks like I am working late tonight. I think I better get started now. Will show the results tomorrow.

Pearl & Rose Quartz Necklace/Earring Set

Finally I managed to finish this piece for Mui Mui. Otherwise, she will be going back empty handed. They left this afternoon for home and the boys were sad to see them go. William actually didn't want them to go back yet and asked the two ceces (cousin sisters) to stay back in Kuching. Look at the picture below. William didn't want to let her go......LOL. See you all next year....maybe.

Amerald Faceted Crystal Rosary

Today I made another rosary. This one is for my sister in-law who is here for a short holiday. This is my favorite one so far. Always fascinated with green. I used the deep emerald faceted crystal rondelles and lime colored Czechs fire polished beads and the contrast gives it a very nice look.

Another Rose Quartz Rosary

Ah well, another rose quartz rosary and this time it is for Swee Lin, my niece. This picture here is however not Swee Lin. She is her younger sister, Mui Mui, turned 10 today. Swee Lin is too camera shy so Mui Mui posed with this rosary on her behalf. Both nieces are here for a short holiday with their mom and grandma. So, its a busy weekend for me. Managed to squeeze some time this morning and evening to get this rosary done. Another one on the way as well for the mom. The close up pic of the rosary is not so good. The color turned up too pale against the orange background. Must remind myself to change the background with lighter color for future photo taking. And for tonight's post, let me introduce you to my little boy - Henry, the younger one. He is two and very "ngiau"........LOL.

Last Weekend Projects

Age is really catching up with me. Only realized it last weekend and today. The aftermath of a badminton game. I took part in a competition last weekend and now my whole body is aching. What makes it worse is that I only played one set!. Duh! duh! If I was to play more sets, I am quite sure I will be bedridden.......What should I do now? Play and train more, that is the only way to keep fit and ever ready for competition. Not that I am very keen with competition nowadays. Actually I don't like to take part in them anymore especially at this age but sometimes its hard to say no when requested by someone like my FATHER.....Anyway, I just need to convince him that I am not as fit as when I was a teenager or in my earlier 20's. I guess in our parents eyes, we are always young (hehe!). That aside, I performed better in wire jewelry...LOL. I managed to finished the amethyst rosary started last Friday. Just in time for Xmas. Made another two pairs of tiger eyes earrings as well.

Rose Quartz Rosary

This rosary is made for my childhood best friend back in Sabah. We have not been keeping in touch (directly) for years until recently when I discovered her online. Most of the time, news of her trickle down to me through third party. She requested for two and I only finished this rose quartz rosary last night. Spent two nights to complete it...or about 5 hours in between tv breaks....
