關於這裡

短期內應該不會有什麼新手作了
因為就快去oz了
這裡好可能會在不久的將來變成關於oz的blog了...
當然...我會把重要的工具帶過去
一有機會我就會做手作的!

Oz:: 準備中...

從來都沒有組織能力
現在...才......"如火如荼"的在買東西, 找資料
但找來找去還是整理不出個什麼計劃來.... -_-

住宿方面
原本打算到步了再找
總不會沒地方吧...
但越找資料就越擔心(果然是知得越多就越驚....)
一月初大概還是新年的旺季吧...
而且好像mel有什麼大型活動的...(好明顯知d唔知d...)
還是先book幾晚吧
好了
這間看來不錯啊::
http://www.yha.com.au/hostels/details_popup.cfm?hostelid=98
比sharehouse貴些
不過身為一個缺乏安全感的人...
初來報到就住間好一點點的
不要一來就一副可憐相

現在還有好很多樣事項要辦...
迷你倉
信箱
執屋執行李
轉十幾萬個地址
找吉隆坡的資料 (因為在那轉機, 中間有好多個小時, 應該可以出去走走吧~)
呀~~~~~~~~~

第一天因為要去西環和豆丁們say goodbye而遲到
多得好友幫忙開檔
當日還有noon小姐到來陪伴說三道四~
其實這次沒有造甚麼新東西
懶呀!
但當晚突然好想弄一些小東西
竟然就弄了一整晚沒睡...
第二日一早開檔
得到大量的陽光
很是美麗的早晨
謝謝每一位欣賞dd手作的朋友!

ps. 
第一天的鄰居是位fair-trade-lady
她叫Fanny(都話我同Fanny有緣啦~)(還有partner stephen)
是一位十分十分和藹的女士
他們的薑茶好好味
還送了我三粒無患子,可以洗衣服洗碗洗頭洗乜都得
試試用來洗衣服...果然使得!
天然野...我鍾意!

Martket:: Lamma Island this weekend!


(click to enlarge)
a bigger version of the map here

Hey everyone!
The market will run from 11 a.m. til 5 p.m followed by a music jam around the campfire from 5 til 8. Admission is free and food and drinks will be available for purchase.

Here is a list of participating vendors...
Vivid Vibrations - www.vividvibrations.com - greeting cards and painted glass
Earth Girl Creations - www.earthgirlcreations.com - natural perfumes, room sprays all custom blended
Blue Lotus - crystal wands and pendulums, jewellery
DD Handiwork - hand crafted knit and embroidered accessories/bags
Poifection - hand made poi
Ruby Martini - hand made original headpieces
Roz keep - watercolor paintings, calendars
Jill Eason Light Relief - hand made glass crystal chandeliers, candle bowls and jewellery
Acht-art - www.acht-art.com - book marks, greeting cards, cd covers, water color paintings

Bar and bake table
DJ Jim

Pop in for some quick christmas shopping during the day, come and hang out for the afternoon or join us for the jam in the evening....looking forward to seeing you there....

Here are the directions:
From the ferry pier walk along the main street until you get to the main intersection that will lead you to Hung Shing Yeh and Power Station Beach....turn left (this road is called back street)

Walk along back street a few minutes. One of the last shops on your left is a convenience store and a laundry shop called Brothers. Just after Brothers on the left is a main path marked with a green railing and a yellow sign reading North Lamma School....turn left up the path.

This is a family walking trail path that will lead you to Open Space and the windmill. Just follow it do not turn! You will come to a crossroads - do not turn, cross the path and go straight. The path becomes narrow and there is a building on the right and bins on the left - nothing but forest after that. It is about a 15 minute stroll gradually taking you up hill. You will come to a bridge that you walk under.....Open Space is up ahead another few minutes on the right....you can't miss it!

Tote:: 2 new bags



話說上星期去ssp補材料
點知見到布就有如購物狂見到手袋般不顧一切的買買買!
買的時候好開心
但回家後...
一邊搓著發酸的膊頭一邊想著我的澳洲基金和迷你倉..一邊...好想殺了自己!

我要努力向上
我要儘快用掉這些布然後落力的賣掉它們!
(右上角那包東西要八十幾蚊!我真的叫姐姐幫我計多一次...俾錢的時候好想殺了自己!)


每次去ssp都會中途落返去地車站禁錢...
唔知其他人係咪咁既呢...

還是算吧啦

Clothes:: leggings




(灰色:: lycra+黑色絨花...
紅綠星星:: lycra
粉紅點點:: lycra
綠色花花: 針織棉
?:: 針織棉
藍色花花:: 棉)
All M size $99@

謝謝好友meke的鼓勵
嘗試車了一些leggings
市面上的leggings都離不開淨色,波點橫紋格仔等
低調總有低調的好
我也好喜歡簡約的
不過總有些時候我們想要特別一點的
spent a whole day to make these leggings
for those who want something special
special thanks to meke for her encouragement

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

-車完一整天後對針織布和lycra算是熟悉了一點
(當然還未去到車得好靚的地步)
-在布棚賣lycra及lace的姐姐好好人的!
她車給女兒的裙還有家裡的窗簾和琴套都是超fancy的
-一看見藍色花布已經鎖定了它,點知我高估了它的彈性..車完是無法穿上的..但又不甘心捨棄,於是夾硬在腰位做了一些僭建..:p
-藍色花花已經被我據為己有!
:D

裁布需要很大的平面
尤其是裁衣服...
一直都夢想在家裡放一排好大好大的檯
衣車熨斗所有工具都擺出來
不用又開檔又收檔
這個...大概不可能會成真
不過我也有張不錯的「裁床」
一張多餘的床褥
要裁布時放在床上
立刻多了一個大大的平面
這個釘紙樣時是超級方便
大頭針直接釘下去就可以啦
不怕會整到塊布移位
這還是個超級大針插!
不用時就豎在床邊做另類notice board
把半製成品釘上去
或者把製成品釘上去拍照
壞處就是要彎腰裁布
裁完一件衣服一定要坐低抖抖!
不過我暫時還是好滿意這張「裁床」
:D

12月的第一個市集
在(我最愛的)南丫島上
主辦單位是Open Space
6/12 11am-5pm
應該會有點難找
這是open space提供的direction:
From the ferry pier walk along the main street until you get to the main intersection that will lead you to Hung Shing Yeh and Power Station Beach....turn left (this road is called back street)
Walk along back street a few minutes. One of the last shops on your left is a convenience store and a laundry shop called Brothers. Just after Brothers on the left is a main path marked with a green railing and a yellow sign reading North Lamma School....turn left up the path.

專心溫習普通話...言猶在耳
剛過去的週末就去了兒童燃點教小朋友做聖誕卡送去老人院
然後又口快快答應了幫他們織頸巾送給小朋友
於是乎
這個週末....織了兩條頸巾...完全沒有溫習 =.=

邊織邊「聽電視」
偶然看到60分鐘時事雜誌
訪問那位把飛機安全降落在河面上的美國機師和crew
超級感動的訪問!
最感動的是一封信
話說事發後機師收到很多感謝信
機師太太讀了其中一封
寄的人不是機上乘客
也不是機上乘客的家人
但他的祖父是住在河邊的大廈裡
他感謝機師沒有讓意外發生
間接也救了他的祖父

訪問中不止一次提到他救的不止是機上的155人
還有就是155人背後的家庭
數目其實可以很大
但原來還不止於這155!
我們永遠也預計不到自己做的事究竟影響著多少人...

其實忙完11月的三個市集後
應該繼續努力死造爛造
因為下個月就是聖誕這個花錢節!
而且我參加市集其中一個目的就是要ko掉那些布
好等我可以租個小一點的迷你倉燒少一點銀紙!
只不過為了應付下個星期的普通話考試
暫時要專心溫習
考完試那天還可以去ssp補回一些材料!
yeah!

這是手作人的努力

返工搭車整
放工搭車整
就連只有半個小時的lunch也不放過
一邊咬麵包一邊整
或者一邊咬麵包一邊衝去買材料
更莫說為了趕工而要與周公聚少離多

與朋友出街也只顧周圍望
望廚窗望人望一切東西
望望人家衣服袋子上的details顏色物料配襯等等等等

在公司忙著的時候
也心掛掛想著未完成的東西
在公司發呆的時候
更恨不得可以立刻飛返家中開turbo
就是為了別人簡單一句欣賞的說話
什至只是一個欣賞的目光
就夠滿足了
至於能否賺錢?
很難
旁人都以為很好,試下搞生意不打工啦
有人養就係!或者唔住係香港啦!
若真的要以此維生的話
好難好難
好難解釋

作為興趣就夠了
能夠一直做下去就夠了

這是所有有夢想的人都願意付出的努力
