Blogthings - What Color Christmas Lights Are You?

I'm feeling the Christmas fever already! I cannot wait to wrap all the presents and go back to my hometown. I have tonnes of things that I want to do for Christmas this year, such as baking cakes and cookies, decorating our Christmas tree, hanging Christmas lights and lighting up candles outside our home.

I'll be in Kuching from 14 December to 8th January 2010, and will be flying back to KL on the 9th. I'll be celebrating Christmas, my birthday and new year there, so it's going to be a triple holiday for me.

How are you going to spend your Christmas this year?

You are Multicolored Lights

Your holidays are a time for cheer and excitement. You love so much about the holidays, and everyone perks up a little from your happiness. You try to be grateful for what you have this time of the year. Even if things have been tough, you can't help but be joyful.

Starting A Pearl Jewelry Business

If you are looking to start a craft business, perhaps you could venture into pearl jewelry business. If you are into jewelry-making, you can purchase loose pearls and make them into all kinds of jewelry. Pearl necklaces, bracelets, earrings and pendants are the typical jewelry that you can make.

There are so many different types of pearls, such as round pearls, semi-round pearls, oval pearls, button pearls and so forth in various sizes, so your creativity is the limit. There are so many colors to choose from too, such as classic pearl white, black, mauve, and even fun colors like pink and lilac. Create one of a kind jewelry and it will surely be a hit, since everyone loves unique jewelry.

Even if you are not a jeweler, who says you can't start a freshwater pearl jewelry business? Instead of selling your own handmade jewelry, you can always supply loose pearls to other jewelry makers. Another thing you can do is selling ready-made pearl jewelry, by ordering various jewelry designs straight from the manufacturer.

You can purchase loose pearls or ready-made pearl jewelry wholesale, which means that you pay a lot less than retail price. With a strategic business plan and research, you can start your own craft business from home. Isn't that a great business idea?

Congratulations Card - Blue & Yellow Baby Boy

I made this card also for C's colleague, Alexcious. Pretty unique name, right? She's expecting a baby boy sometime in December. Hopefully he's be a Capricorn baby, just like me! C told her that she should name her baby Maximus, so that it rhymes with her name. Maximus Aurelius, ring a bell? Okay it's the main character's name in the movie Gladiator. Lol!

Congratulations on Your Baby Boy Card
Size - 14.8 x 10.5 cm
Style - 2-fold, vertical, no inlay, blank

It doesn't really show in the pic, but I used foam adhesives to stick the squares onto the base card to achieve the 3D effect. I also edged the squares with dye-based ink using cotton bud to make them pop out. I hope she'll like the card.
