Handmade Christmas ornament

This morning, I chanced upon this website on handmade Christmas ornament. I was thinking of coming up with something for my shop to create the Christmas mood.

So this evening, I tried my hands on that handmade paper bauble. The instructions are very simple. I managed to do it but they look different from the original ones..

 I used the cup cakes papers. Folded them into quarters.
 Glued them on the small piece of paper
 
 On the other side, glued them like picture 2.
 Punched holes and tied the red string.
 Opened it up. I just made three paper baubles.


I love the Christmas-tide, and yet,
I notice this, each year I live;
I always like the gifts I get,
But how I love the gifts I give!
~ Carolyn Wells

Christmas mood is in the air..

    I think there are lots of websites that teaches all these Christmas ornaments.. I especially like those that use or recycle materials that we always treat as garbage, eg: toilet paper roll, egg tray etc..

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
