Case of the Art

I love shopping for my iPhone cases.  You have to admit, it's the one piece of accessory you are seen with the most. So why not get something that matches your style.  I introduced the Society6 before for their posters but they can also print some of the artist's work as iphone cases and laptop skins.  See the extensive collection here.

My Design: Menu Cards

For the tables at my wedding, I combined my menu cards and name cards and created something elegant with the help of free printables from the Wedding chicks.  This site is really a time saver and offers so many cute templates which you can customize on the spot.  I took mine into photoshop for some minor adjustments.



Since the wedding color theme is white and sparkle I wrote the names of our 200 guest by hand in silver glitter... I tried two glitter glues, each under S$2.00 and the small one was much easier to use.

My Design: Guest Message Cards

Since I did a post on creative guest books few weeks ago, I felt it's only right if i came up with something creative too.  I decided to pass out message cards so everyone can spend time to write/ draw/ color/ express their messages for us.


These have already been tested at my Tokyo wedding and I think my guest did a pretty good job.

My Design: Diamond Money Box!

I am back in Singapore and in full production mode with the part 2 of my wedding just few days away. This week will be dedicated to sharing my creative projects for the big day. First, check out the diamond shaped money box I made :) The 5 years of model making experience at the architecture school is paying off :P  


I started by building the frame with sticks. 



tadaaa!

Shopping at Rise

Futako-tamagawa is definately one of the stylish areas in Tokyo, especially now with the addition of Rise shopping center.  Rise offers countless numbers of amazing zakka shops.  Here are the shops I enjoyed most during my half day shopping trip. 

212 Kitchen Store

pienikoti is a super cute shop for kids.


I'm in love with Neue




and of course, last but not least, my favorite Francfranc.  This store has a more sophisticated feel compared to the other locations.
I ended the shopping session with some delicious cake at a cute cafe, Cocktail-do Coffee.
