It’s warm beach weather and the crowds in the shops are getting unsettled. It’s looking a lot like Christmas to me! Summertime might not seem like Christmas to all those Northern Hemisphere peeps stuck in the icy snow but I think a white Christmas is overrated anyway. Here’s my take on a Southern Hemisphere style Christmas. 1. Sequined Motif Fascinator – Doesn’t matter which side of the

I can’t believe how close it is to Christmas! My girls  are hosting our annual Christmas dinner tomorrow. We’ve been carrying on this tradition for many years and it is a fantastic way to catch up with each other. It’s a good excuse to eat, drink and be merry. With Christmas parties comes the age old question of, what do I wear? 1. Golden Tree Earrings – Nothing says glam and festive than gold

It just so happens that the Asian symbol of joy, unity and family is a round round circle. Today’s top things are based around round things! (This reminds me of a children’s TV show called "Play School". They used to have a “Shape of the Day” and “Today’s Number”!) So yes, round things Thursday it is! 1. Matzo balls – I’m not Jewish myself but in celebration of Hanukkah, I made matzo balls for

It was such a windy day today. The flaps of my blinds kept making flip flap noises. No worries though because the weather is glorious and I could just open the blind and enjoy the sunshine ray. I’m wondering if anyone’s been to craftgawker.com. They have some beautiful things over there… like photos 1 and 2. 1. Pink Checkered Pinwheels – When there’s wind, you need pinwheels to whirl all the

I've decided to dedicate today to all things sweet and delicious. I got into a Treasury for the first time today which made my heart smile. 1. Strawberry and vanilla brulee tart courtesy of Bourke Street Bakery - I was doing some errands around town and thought I'd come by this Sydney institution. The tart's a symphony of caramel crispy brulee top and Bouke Street's famous flakey dark pastry.

I get really excited when I've sold something on etsy. Perhaps it's the beginner's adrenaline! I spent some time yesterday designing and making some little Thank You notes for my gifts and wares. What do you think? PS Photo 2 is just a photo of how the tag will be used, together with my latest sold item, the flower brooch / hair tie.

I love Chinese dumplings and whenever I have some free time, I like making a batch of them. It's a good feeling knowing what's going into the dumpling.It beats frozen mystery meat any day. I recently bought this funny little device that promises prefect looking dumplings and faster, more efficient dumpling making. I am going to try making a batch of pork and bok choy dumplings with my new toy.

I felt so silly today. I opened up all the windows of my tiny flat, grabbed my camera and started... posing in front of it. I mean, I love facebook and taking photos but I don't like being the subject of the photos. I kept on peeking out the window to make sure that none of my neighbours catch me in the act. I am NOT doing something illegal, immoral or obscene but I felt incredibly silly.

Weekends are always too short. The weather's absolutely gorgeous and there's so much happening at this time of the year. I also had a chance to upload some of my first items on my etsy shop! Hooray! Please check them out, they feature some sparkling hair pieces, necklaces and earrings. It's at http://ahhbmall.etsy.com/ Finders Keepers Market Saturday When I told Mr A. that we are visiting

It's the first day of summer and I hung a spanking new banner on to my etsy page! So there's alot of exciting stuff to look forward to. The etsy page is scarily empty but I'll get on to loading items soon. Talk about empty, I bought a Christmas tree on the weekend and it's naked pines are staring back at me. I've got to get on to making the ornaments before Christmas comes and goes. And also on
