Art wall - Status: WIP

Been visiting Bras Basah Complex. Not only it is the home to TCM books I have taken an interests in lately, but also electronic guitars for Yong and most importantly craft supplies haven for the home decor projects we have very (VERY) slowly embarked on.

Here is the first project we are doing: filling up the big blank wall at dining area. Here is what our dining room was before:


Lotsa big blank walls ya?

And remember my Amelia Kay photos I bought from Etsy? We got hold of some really old frames, stripped them apart, some DIY matting (thanks to amazing Yong and his lovely 一双巧手 as he likes to call them) and wala.. they look as good as the new Ikea frames we got for Carrie Chau's series.

And for the loooongest time, my mum complained that she had to peer at the tiny door gift clock since we took our own sweet time (half a year to be exact!) in getting a proper wall clock. We finally got down buying one from Molecule that is not outrageously overpriced (well, in the end, we still felt it was as we stared in disgust at the "MADE IN CHINA" tag on the packaging).

It is still very much work in progress. Two more old frames to fill. We are thinking of using some wedding photos that are not the in your face kind of wedding photos so it fits in the theme or shop from Etsy.

We will see.

Photos time!




As you can see, alot to improve on but we are happy with whatever progress (and fun!) we have so far. Wish us luck in getting the two new photos!
