My Handmade Felt Desserts- Note Holder

It all started with a mini felt cake fridge magnet from Daiso, then a felt pudding magnet for Cindy's birthay.

I've searched google for ideas and designs as reference. To make my mini felt cake as a form of decoration and usefulnss, I revamped it into my very own creation of note holder.

Every part of the mini cakes you see here were all 100% hand-made by me.


Vanilla Ice-Cream in Waffle basket



This is my favourite mastr piece, and is my first attempt to the waffle basket. I never expect it to be turned out successfully.


Mango Ice-Cream in Waffle Basket




This was my next attempt after the vanilla ice cream in waffle basket.


Strawberry Chocolate Cake








Sliced Chocolate Cake



This sliced cake is the most challenging cake to sew, that's why I only made one.



Strawberry Coffee Cake



Strawberry Vanilla Cake



After I finished sewingthe cake, I realised that it looks like a wedding cake.

Chocolate Frudge Pudding


I've made 7 of them for my collegues as Christmas Gifts. I hope they like it.
I bought all the materials from a $2.00 shop in Singapore.

Assignment - Basic Model Making

In the semester of Basic Interior Design course, one of our module is Basic Model Making. we have to build a rocking chair to 1:8 scale. We have to draw the initial sketch of our rocking chair design. I changed my designs gradually as to the trainer's advises.
I'm afraid of using the machines for cutting the woods. So, my rocking chair design concept is as simple as possible which using minimum cutting required. I asked my classmates and trainer to help me cut and sand my woods to shape.
Fortunately, my rocking chair is rocks and finished. It is ready for assesment next Tuesday.
This is the backrest and the seat of my rocking chair.
Joining the parts together





The finished rocking chair.



My initial rocking chair design was with cushion, but after the design of the backrest. My trainer suggested to leave it without teh cushion.

Felt Desserts

Cindy's Birthday is around the corner, we went shopping at Vivocity on a weekend and I patronised Daiso at Vivocity, which sells veriaty of cheap DIY materials. I bought a few packs of DIY felt dessert magnet. I asked Cindy to choose one of the design and I promised to make for her birthday. She chose a Pudding Design Felt magnet.

I spent a night to sew the pudding and I added some beads & rose onto the pudding for decoration and I've made a box for it too.



After the pudding, I made the cake magnet. It's the easiest DIY dessert of all. I failed to make the cupcake because of the proprtion of the cake and the base. However, I will continue to make my own felt dessert.

Audrey Hepburn




This is my second attempt in Art of Heart.
Audrey Hepburn comes to my mind when thinking of what to paint for my next jammi g in Art of Heart.
Audrey Hepburn has been a very popular character portrait for home deco. I remembered seeing a portrait of Audrey Hepburn seeling at IKEA.
Now, I'm very happy and proud that I can hang my very own Audrey Hepburn in my room.

Initially, I wanted to paint the portrait black & white which is the classic one. However, I wasn't very confident because the portrait couldn't have any pencil mark, So I decided to replace the the backgraound in light beige and the black with dark brown.
This made my portrait looks different from others. My very own Audrey Hepburn Portrait.

我不是天使

\


我 不是天使
而是一只遥望远方
可望展翅高飞的 精灵。
I'm not an angel
I'm an elf who is watching and hoping to fly into the sky.


I haven't been creating some art pieces since the last post.
I took part in the Art of Heart Workshop managed by my aunts on last weekend.
This is my first time drawing and painting on canvas.
I love Art. Recalling when I was a kid, I did attended Art Class, I remembered I did very well and get praises from my teachers, however, I was forced to stop the art class because I did not do well in my studies and attending art class means my parents need to fork out extra money for the school fees, they would rather spend that money for me to attend tution than for me to attend the art class. Soon, my parents stopped bringing me to the art class. They singned me up for tution class at the neighbourhood Zone, but I still didn't do well. I didn't do my homework and I wasn't concerntrating at class. This shows that the money they spent was eventually wasted!
But this does not stop me from loving art, yet, I continue t draw more than my academic. I just love drawing more than study.
I still remember, where there was an event on the anniversary of that Zone where my tution class was, I took part in the Art competition and I got 2nd in place. Then I quit the tution class when my mum has given up.
Gradually, I was forced to study and draw less as I ages, until now that I have start working, start earning money, but I'm not very happy at all until I start draw.
Finally, there's a place for me to draw and paint freely. I can finally have a place to release my stress and fulfil my childhood dream.
I have some thoughts during creating this painting.
