Movie - Intouchables

If you wanted to correct my post subject above, well you can't. The movie title is in French and apparently that is how it is spelled.

I managed to get Perry to watch this with me last night and glad that we watched this together. Such an inspiring movie and funny too. Cannot remember when was the last time I laughed that hard.

Playing with Wire

I thought I would practice on wire techniques last weekend. The cutting, bending and linking - all paid off!

The wire bracelet is a bit too big for my wrist but will make a nice anklet :)

Marble In A Cage

This looks easy on the guidebook so I decided to try it myself this week. Unfortunately I did not have a thick string or leather strings to make this properly but I made a silent promise to buy it next visit to the craft shop. Instead, I have used thin black elastic string, normally for hairband and waistband. This is just for practice and blogging purposes but hubby has requested me to make him a necklace like this when I get the strings next time. :)

Reem Island 'Reem Cafe'

After so long I visited Reem Cafe at the Reem Island again. Found this sign outside:

I forgot to ask the cafe staff about this sign :D

Little girls' bracelets

I made these bracelets for two lovely girls, Selena and Tiana as a surprise even from their mother. Simple gifts made from the heart.

And for their mother, a simple pair of earrings..

Marble-lous

Will be practicing some bead wrapping with these marbles :)

Treasures!

I was walking around Madinat Zayed area after my visit to Daiso inside Madinat Zayed Gold Souk yesterday and found out my favourite Chinese grocery shop is closing down. No more food and beverage items. No more Chinese steamed buns!

I went in anyway and found out they are having a sale on fashion jewellery items (which is strange as they do not sell jewelleries). Prices are not bad too, I mean they were priced between AED2.00, AED5.00 and AED20.00 each or in sets!

Look what I have bought for myself:



So, I say goodbye to the Chinese shop and will have to find out if the grocery shop next to the new Beijing restaurant is any good.

The fashion accessories shop next door is not bad as well. This shop is on opposite side of Beijing restaurant / Shoemart, Madinat Zayed Abu Dhabi
