I ❤ Textile Printing
My first textile class: Block printing. Block printing is not new to me, but what’s new is to cut out a shape/shapes from a cork sheet to make a printing block. The pores and roughness of cork give the printing result so much texture! This is just a test print. Next class we’re going to [...]
Wedding Annoucement Design
Ok. These invitation suites are obviously not for myself. I designed these because I was inspired by some wedding invitations that I saw the other day. I also have been thinking, perhaps this is a market that I can look into if I can design my own announcement suites. Therefore, voilà! These are the first [...]
Lovely ceramic set from Starbucks
I’ve been noticing this set of ceramics for a long, long time. I can’t keep my eyes of it whenever I go to Starbucks. I knew it will finally go on sale someday, so I didn’t buy it, until yesterday. It wasn’t a crazy sale, only 2-dollar difference, but I’m so happy that I can [...]
Where have you been hiding, little bunnies?
Hello there! We really miss you little guys when you are not around. Now that the winter has passed, why don’t you stay a bit longer this time?
Random Art
I was going to use my recently designed pattern to print some cards, but I accidentally set the paper orientation in the wrong direction, ending up with the design cropped. Oh well, I thought, at least I could make it into a smaller, square card. But it just doesn’t look that nice anymore… And then, [...]
I ❤ Patterns
I decided to create my own patterns after reading an article about textile design in the current issue of Uppercase magazine. One of my favourite is Cloud 9 Fabrics. Their collections of fabrics are so wonderful! This pattern is my first trial of making a pattern in Illustrator. It turned out to be not too [...]
Lost & Found: now in digital version!
I finally made my London travel journal available in digital format! How come it took me this long!? Looking back at what I wrote in this book, I had an indescribable feeling…it’s like looking at another me, who is 3 years younger and had absolutely no idea what lies ahead of her. I wouldn’t say [...]
How to spend a sunny afternoon…
Find a café (or cafés), have a nice coffee and pastry, and read your favourite magazine ❤ In the pictures: Finch’s and Epicurean Delicatessen.
Not quite analog: Hipstamatic iPhone App
What else can make a bunny look purple!? Of course it’s the lomo magic!Well, not quite…These were actually shot with an iPhone app “Hipstamatic.”It gives you instant gratification of lomography’s “accidental beauty” or “unexpected result” that you normally can’t get until you finish the whole roll of film and get it developed. Now this really [...]
