CNY piggy

When I was in Taiping last Thursday, I saw this cute golden piggy at the CNY stall just opposite the casual market. I bought it for my girl whose Chinese horoscope is a pig. 

It can be used as a piggy bank. I like it!


 I also bought these CNY decorative items for my shop.

Also bought these to be displayed at my home.
I thought of giving a piece to every participant of the CNY contest

      well, I couldn't find a golden horse for my other girl. Btw, after I put those that I bought at the shop, the boss was influenced to buy more and more..

    Bananaz got 4 piggies at home the biggest is for 50sen coin and three smaller ones for 5sen. Bananaz is a collector or probably hoarding 5sen coins haha.

    The new coins truly upset my time in selecting them, made me looked like a foreigner trying to deal with choosing which or witch especially when you have 'old flower' eyes you cannot use the fingers to 'feel' anymore.

    About the new coins (personal opinion only) susah for Bananaz *shake head*.. 5sen is almost the size of 10sen, 50sen shrunk to almost the size of 20sen and in dimly lighted places Bananaz got another problem with the colors. Old flower is of no great help to see the small figures 5,10, 20 & 50 on the coins instead seeing another big flower, the bunga raya. *haiz*

    I recycled many CNY decorations and bought few items to add on. Many bloggers were terrified to hear that I put big flowers all over my house!
