August buried jewel hunt. Are you ready?


Here's a special clue for you to help in your hunt!

Elle hopped onto her unicorn, Elene that galloped into the starbound sky.
Should she head to Netherlands or Greece?
As Elene spread out her magnificent wings, Elle pondered, on where she could find theChanel wonders.
As the cold midnight breeze caressed her neck, she shuddered and pulled out herTweed coat.
Where lies the blue encrusted gems. Would she be able to get them beforeChiara reaches?


Have fun hunting!

Hueys in the kitchen #3: Slurp french toast


One of those mornings when the tummy wants something better, complaining of the usual cereals, bread or biscuits. And yes, this french toast is definitely sometime good for a quick breakkie fix


2 Eggs
2/3 cups Milk
Dash of salt
Dash of sugar
Vanilla essence- Optional
 ( didn't had this in the fridge so I skipped this)
Nutmeg- Optional
Cinnamon -Optional
(Preferred mine without Cinnamon)
Cheese- Optional
Honey- Optional



Whisk together the eggs, salt, sugar, nutmeg,vanilla essence and cinnamon (if applicable)



Add in the milk and give it a good mix



Dunk the bread like you are dunking your enemy  oreo so that it absorbs enough of the good stuff


Heat up the pan with some unsalted butter



And it's done!(:
Top it up with fresh fruits ( I only had bananas), drizzle with honey (I forgot to do that) for some tummy treat! 

Hueys in the kitchen #2: Claypot chicken rice





Attempted my first claypot chicken rice a few weeks ago, with salted fish, lup cheong, chicken and mushroom.

mmm(:

Cushy nails


Inspired by the pretty quilts from Dayne quilt bag, I couldn't help but want to have my nails done in those pretty quilts




It's a pretty concoction of pastel and shades, something different from my previous set of marble nails here



And it's so enjoyable now that I can shoot pretty shots in my new quilted nails for my store.
Here's styling with the popular dollap cream ring




What's there not to love about this set of nails? The quilted effect is intricately painted on by Belle from Glitzyfingers, with gel painted on those pockets to create a 3D effect similar to that of the bag

TDJ corporate project



The first corporate project that TDJ has been engaged to fulfill, for a ASEAN meeting in Singapore where staff from all over the world will gather here.

The client specified for purple orchids- Singapore's national flower, Vanda Miss Joaquim
 




It was quite a tough task as I originally found the supplier to make them, but was played out last minute.
So over night I had to learn how to make corset brooches and wristlets to produce 105 and 52 of them respectively, completing them in 2-3 days.

And being unwell suddenly adds more challenge to completing this project.
And here's all my proud babies (:

Well this certainly fits the saying that goes, What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

So here's a mastered new skill and an achievement for my store(:

So yes, we can now proudly say we are able to handmade such floral corsets and brooches for events or weddings.
