I have recently went to Orchid Show in Star of the Sea School cafeteria, beautiful orchids were breathtaking, I don't have green thumb or anything, but I bought this cutest little orchid called candy orchid for $6.00 I pick the one with little bud, I was so scared that it may just not open and drop.... I am kind of person, I usually under/0ver water plant and kills it. ( Of course not purposefully ... ) I did water it with L&TC, and put it in perfect spot ( that I can think of ) and as you seen in a photo , it bloomed beautifully ! I was so Happy! It still is there, such a small flower, but so powerful!

Cutie Dogs

I love dogs! I love dogs! I love dogs!

My girl friend has moved to New zealand...

She asked me to dog-sit her golden retriever mix, Abby.

She is such a beautiful dog.

We had a Farewell Yakitori ( Japanese style barbeque skewed chicken )

party for her, guest included cute Chihuahua , Maaya and Lucky.

My girl friend ask me to make a stuffed animal for her daughter,

of Knuffle Bunny. I was not aware of it, but it seems to be a big hit

story book character among the little ones.

I showed it to my son, he said " Mama, I loved knuffle bunny when I was first grade!

did you know it was lime green?" I was in shock . yes, my knuffle bunny was white.

I researched it on line, it looked kind of cream color to me.

He also said, "mom, you can tell her that this is a special white color one just for her,

but as you know Kindergardeners can be very difficult. She might says

it's not knuffle bunny....."

When I emailed her mom with the white version photo attachment, she said

" it's beautiful, I am sure my daughter will love it, she likes white,

more then green anyway. She will have one and only White Knuffle Bunny!

How lucky can she be?!" I know she is so sweet that she doesn't have a heart to tell me

" Oh, can you make another one?"

Makimouse painting

Love will keep us together~

There was a song which keeps on playing in my head.

little fuzzy heart is made out of wool fiber.

Painted with acrylic and some glitter~

Hula girl, which I made for an auction is cotton and wool stuffing.

It's really soft. I made skirt and bikini top as well.

She is wearing shell neck lace and Hakulei on the head.

It's fun to make dolls.

New Arts

My new creation is wool felt art call Alice in Wonderland. I love the world of Alice, live in little world or imagination or is it the real world?

The material I use is 100% Wool. I needle felted to hand dyed felt back ground.

This time I placed it inside the photo frame, so you can stand it everywhere.

Alice with Caterpillar will on sale in Sugarcane shop in Kaimuki, Honolulu HI

1137 11th Ave, #101 ( 808 ) 739-2263

My husband took a long waited vacation to Lanai Island.

( although we live in Hawaii).

He didn't take any vacation last year.

I can't believe some people can keep on going without it.

Well, may be because we are living in Hawaii.

We just love Lanai Island and kept going back there.

Golf course is awesome.

Four Season Hotel has superior services, which makes you feel as

very important guest.

They have many complimentary service.

Their Sauna is complimentary to the guest, snorkels and Fins, Lemon Water, Lemonade,

Beach and Pool deck chair with or without shades which includes towel setting, sometimes they come around with ice candy, face spray service for refreshing, cold and hot towels, even a suntan lotion!

In Waikiki, you have to pay everything! So when I consider this service, room rate is not bad at all. Let's say you borrowed snorkels and fins and vest for $20.00 for an hour. and you have 4 family member. ... or if you keep have to buying battle of water for $2.75 a battle ( Hotel price )

for all your family member.

This is the one of the many reason we are going back there...

Especially if you are Kamaaina, ( Hawaii Residents) will get special room rate!

Our Number 1 reason we are going back there is, Four Season Hotel is one of the few pet friendly hotels in Hawaii. so we travel with Anni, 4 lb. Chihuahua.

Of course, your pet has to be obedient, can't growl or bark to children and stuff,

or can't bark in the room.

She must be bag trained, so incase of many difficult situation ( air travel) ,

your puppy must go inside the bag and keep calm.

But if your dog is trained, it's so much fun to travel with them!

There is so many turkeys in Lanai. It's fun to watch them !

Makimouse #5 also traveled along~ See more MakiMouse on my website!
