Valentine's Day/CNY mood

Recently a customer cum friend gave me a bouquet of plastic flowers and asked me to do something about it. She didn't want to throw it as it still looks new but a little dusty.

What I did was I took out all those flowers and gave them a good wash. I kept the vase for my money plant. I used the flowers as shown above.
 
First of all, I have lots of those small bottles which contained my berries drink. My girl told me to keep them. But I have too many of those bottles so I decided to use them as a small vase for those flowers and Ferrero Rocher.

I wrapped ang pows over the body of the bottles to make them attractive.

All done and I'm giving them away to my ChangJiang chat group members.
 
Happy Pre-Valentine's Day and Pre-CNY!

And I made number 8 out of ang pows..fatt for prosperity..

Here's wishing everyone a prosperous year ahead...

    So creative of you! Best to reuse things and not throw them away. The number 8 made of angpows look really nice too!

    P/S Thank you for sending me the angpow packets. It was a very nice surprise!

    I have not put up my CNY decorations yet in the house which I would had already done by this time in the previous years..at this time, hubby merely put up 2 tang lungs at the car porch. Life becoming busier for me & less time to do anything else but work. Happy Chinese New Year to you too & Gong Xi Gong Xi.

Twin bananas

Image
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..
