My First Craft Faire





My FIrst Craft Booth experience was at the front of Baby awareness Manoa Shopping Center second floor.
It was lots of fun! I was able to meet many other nice vendors.
I have never seen so many expecting mothers and babies at the same time!
It was fun and exciting!

Thanks to all my friends who has came to the faire and supported me.
You guys are awesome! ( actually ladies. )

Also Thanks to Baby awareness for giving me the opportunity, although
this will probably be my first and last craft booth faire, because trying to keep up with
quantity and the due date was really not for me...

My craft has to be made in relaxing, whenever I think it's done is when it's done,
even it takes months!

Sidewalk Sale in Manoa!



I am going to have my very first ever sidewalk sale by baby and mom store called "Baby Awareness" in Manoa Shopping Center second floor on August 28th, 10 am- 2 pm ! I am very excited and in process to make the cute stuff for kids and grown ups with children's heart~

Also, " Sugarcane Shop ", cutest little store in Kaimuki Shopping center parking lot is now carrying my stuff! Although most of the needle felt artwork has been sold ... last I heard and I am very excited about that too! Anyway, Sugarcane Shop is my Favorite store! in Honolulu,
please go check it out, if you still haven't, I will promise you probably end up buying something there, even though not my stuff!

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.

I was on this month The Studio! ( Artist's Studio magazine )
I love my studio, if you have chance to browse book store
please check it out!

aloha,
Bonnie
