Oops.... I broke my bamboo crochet hook



钩针就在我编织这顶帽子的时候 "piak"的一声斷了,当下只有 “ 哇...... 有必要吗......"
酱容易断的...



剩下的部分唯有用有勾的那段继续硬硬编织完。 囧

I just love the vintage kind of color of this fabrics

and I just addicted to buy from etsy more an more because I enjoy their services and
how they pampered the items and good at packaging.

---------------------

just some thoughts


I am happy, if you are happy, I am happy, if all are happy.
I just love to see people are happy with their life, from the bottom of my heart, I sincerely hope everyone is happy.

Although it is hard to do it, people might say there's some facts we have to face.
We all know no one is perfect, we all know the rules, I'm not suggest you to ignore it, I'm just try to take it easy. There's things we cannot change, there's things we cannot help. Just be truth to yourself and also to everyone else. Love more and hate less.

Little lady



There was a little lady name Victoria



She was living in the 19th century


She loves to read and write


and she want to be a novelist.


She thinks a lots, just like me :)






It's my shadow in the photo, looks like she is waiting for someone and someone is approaching her.


The person she is waiting for didn't show up, she is going home.


A decent lovely lady.

His brother wrote a note on the bottom on the boat for him
He is worry about his little brother but he know he should let him go and grow.


"sail ~sail~ I'm sailing away~"

"I'll be good I promise, no worries!"



Bye bye my little panda prince

How to make miniature sink strainer


You will need: Tin foil.
You don't have to buy it, do you have Milo, milk powder at home? newly opened or not yet open, you will find it inside the tin.

Instructions: all you need to do it's put the foil on the ruler (where the hole is) , then slightly press down and pulling it to the edge to get the shape, then use needle to jab some little holes in the middle, cut it out and it is done.
