Wiggly Earrings

The past weekend was a very productive weekend for me indeed. I got very busy with playing with my WigJig. One of the many gifts I received from my hubby last Christmas. I created a couple of earrings which are now displayed at Creative Outlet. I fondly call them wiggly earrings. They are made of dark brown 0.6 wire with glass and crystal earrings as drops to add color and dimension to the whole wiggly look.

Look at how perfect they were:
I had fun doing them and hope that the person who wishes to order and wear them will have a lot of fun wearing them too.

Suunto Lumi is it!

Speaking of special occasions, I would like to share with you what I got from my hubby Din as gift. (Christmas 08). He got me a Suunto Lumi Sportif.


I have never been fond of watches. I only wore them when the need necessitates like when I was at school and during nursing practice. To say the least I am not a watch person, its just so ironic since I am very much a slave of time itself. Time makes my world go round, bounded by it as I open my eyes to start my day and way beyond I close my eyes to sleep.

But when I set my eyes on the Suunto Lumi, I could not get it off no more. It was love at first site for me! It was just a chance encounter for me and my Lumi Sportif, an encounter that started a love affair and hopefully will continue until I have to get a new Suunto.....hmmmm what do you think? a florette or a terra? Either or its still be a Suunto and its worth it!!!

Happy Birthday Jetty

To Facebook or Not?!

I think aside from scrapbooking and beading I have been addicted to a new hobby. Yup, facebooking is my new craze. I have been introduce to this new craze by my cousin Pia. From the time I registered there was no looking back. To date I have 197 friends and still looking for my other long lost friends.

Through facebook I am discovering a lot of things from my many friends. To what they are doing, where they are, to what state of health they are in. Better, I get to comment on every aspect they write, upload and share. Its such a friendly site to be in right now. I could send my friends private messages too if the need arises. Just like sending them an email but why email if you can do it on facebook.

So now, if you'll ask me what Im doing right now? I am facebooking of course!

My Craft Area

Here it is......(drum roll please)....my craft area!!!!!


This is my main working station. The table used to be a door. The drawers below houses my scrapbook stuff and the tool box on the right side houses my beads. I have a good view of a part of our garden on the right side. The front part opens up to our mini "bahay kubo" where we stay in the afternoons for snacks and for a little chat. The whole area used to be our dining area and receiving room.

I also displayed my old and worn out stethoscope. Its nice to recall my nursing stint from time to time. Brings me back to reality when Im so saturated with creative and maddening ideas.

This is a panoramic shot of the whole right side area. I made a sitting area of my own for friends and clients who visit. I still have to ask my husband to take pictures of the left side of my area where my magazines, family pictures and computer area is located. And things I thought of using as storage areas. Stay tuned!

Its nice to be organized again. It helps me be creative, resourceful and productive. The neat freak that I am, I always make it a point to clean after every project. Though it takes time to sort and put things in order, still I do the task at hand enjoying every moment of it.

A few days ago after arranging my stuff I got a call from a previous client ordering a few dozen of my beaded spoon and forks with rice ladles. To think the Holiday season is over. What a treat!!!!
And to top it all, just yesterday I got an sms from my Aunt's friend ordering 30 pieces of my bag jewels! Wow! Hmmmm, maybe I need to do this organizing stuff more often. ;)
