Something Made

A birthday card for a friend's 21st bday... it's quite a challenge to make a card for a guy without making it end up too girly.


A try at cream puffs... Yum...


Not so Red Velvet cupcakes. I really like the cream cheese frosting!

cupcakes...in a jar!

I'm currently in san jose, ca for spring break! It's really refreshing to get away from arid stillwater,ok. One of the things that I look forward to is the FOOD!!! Asian food to be exact and Kara's Cupcake... I love the chocolate velvet. In addition, I look forward to visiting the paper source store. So, I pestered my bf to bring me to santana row for cupcakes and to peek into Paper Source store. He becomes a fan of the chocolate velvet too! hehe...

I found this interesting "red velvet cupcake in a jar" idea when I visited the ohhellofriend blog this morning. Check it out!

It made me want to try out this idea too... It'll make a unique party favor!

driftwood Crate & Barrel

My dad's creation- driftwood table- is selling at Crate&Barrel. It has been sold there quite sometime... perhaps a couple of years or may be a year. I forgot but I have been wanting to check out the table and most importantly the price tag that they put on it. Indeed, I went "waaah" when I saw the price.



My dad's doing more of living room accessories now as opposed to rattan furniture like he used to. Well when business wasn't peaking, you have to think of something. Here's one of his first creation. My dad asked my aunt to bring it here when she visited her son. There's no coating on so I guess u can see the natural color of it. I don't dare to put candle on it. But he puts glass on the candle holder now so it's safer.


I also found some cute stuffs at Crate and Barrel. I heard of and kinna knew what Crate & Barrel is- a store selling good(expensive) stuffs from furniture to kitchen stuffs. So, I didn't really bother checking out the website and the store(well, I don't think they have a store here in OK). But I came across this cute cupcake spatula at Bakerella


I kinna want this cupcake book too. It's in pink. No matter how much I tried to deny it, pink is still my favorite color.
