I love the photoshoot Natalie did with Sharon Gong. What’s amazing is that this photographer is only 16 years old. Amazing!

One sweater, three gloves
I had a great luck at a thrift shop the other day. I picked up a Jill Stuart coat for 1500 yen (about $15). I was so thrilled! The size fit me perfectly too. Along with the coat, I picked up this sweater/vest thingy for 100 yen ($1). The sweater was in a good condition, but it sat in my closet for a bit, never been worn. So I decided to remake the sweater into something fun. The sweater has an interesting texture, three different knits.
First, I cut up the sweater along the seam line to see how much fabric I have. Then I used rib parts as wrist bands for the mitts, sewed it up with sewing machine and added a bow and heart charm.
This sweater was remade into three different mitts! Such an easy and fun project:)

Merry Christmas!
(Belated) Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope all is having a wonderful holiday.
My husband and I went to a candle service at a church on 24th, and had some friends over at our place later that night. It was a lot of fun, but with different parties and going out last week, I’m a bit drained now:p
1. My gingerbread house – first time making the house! I used a recipe for sugar cookies instead of ginger cookies. I like sugar cookies much better. I drafted a pattern for the house, and used icing as a glue to put the cookies together. It was kinda hard, and you can see some m&ms are coming off! But it was so much fun making it!
2. My decorated Christmas tree
3. Festive nails – red & glitter
4. Some handmade gift for my little sister
