My 2nd polymer clay charm neckalce...



Yay! Today after what I did in my previous post I started working on my 2Nd polymer clay charm neck lace!

You might be wondering why I didn't post about the first one...
Well you see the eyes... Are not really up to my mark so I just abandoned that rabbit cupcake polymer clay charm project and started on another today :D

You could say I am VERY proud of this one... :)
It is kinda represents me ya see.

See photo above. Sorry if it isn't that clear, I took it with the web cam and cropped it! (Ok! uploaded a better one!)... And there is a smudge of glue on the cupcake cup! Ugh! I am SO messy -.-"

A tiny pink (Mind you I like pink stuff... I like other colors too but pink is a KAWAII color and I LOVE KAWAII stuff that is why I like pink. Geddit? Tee hee!)teddy bear with a REALLY cute chef's hat thing-ma-bob hugging a humongous strawberry swirled cupcake!

Whee hee I am over whelmed with KAWAII stuffies!

A BIG hip hip hooray for polymer clay! I LOVE working with you! Maybe a wee but more than gum paste/fondant because I can turn you into jewellery and I cant with gum paste/fondant but I guess I love both of you 'pastes' just the same :P

I LOVE you polymer clay!!

Wedding cake competition prep



Took my very FIRST step towards my wedding cake just now.. :)

I decided on a around 90% royal iced cake.
So today I covered 2 out of my five tiered cake with royal icing...

While I was icing my 6 inch top tier I made a HUGE mistake!
HUGE as in everything I made before could go down the drain type of HUGE!!

(Sorry I am not telling you WHAT the mistake was because it is a secret... Hush! And how I am icing the cake... Hush-er!!)

So after I finished icing the cake I stopped and was thinking on what I could do with that ^*%!$#* cake!!
Was thinking for quite some time and I was just wondering about my color theme with is Black N white...
Then I got this SUPER DE DUPER idea for my cake! (Mwa ha ha ha ha!!)
Instead of just one color per tier I could make it 2 colors per tier!

WOOHOO!

I love GOOD things that come out of mistakes :D

Hooray for mistakes?

Tee hee!

Goals for today...



Today hopefully after all the moving stuff into my new cakin' room (Which was the play/study room and maybe it 80% still is!) I would still have to to at least cover the 5 dummy cakes with royal icing and hopefully do some string work practice on my Wilton practice board... :)

And if if if if (Yeah thats ALOTTA if's) I have more time after that I will do my clay HOMEWORK -.-"

Hopefully i will be able to complete EVERYTHING!

4th July 2010



4th July 2010... One of the worst titles I could ever think of haha!!
But still... Many things happened TODAY (4th July 2010) so I guess I would just name this post that!!

Ok, enough of that chit chat of 4th July 2010 :P
Now for the news report of the day!

~Music~

Well today there is GOOD news and BAD news...

The good news is: Mommy has got her car so we can go anywhere and everywhere! Hooray!

The bad news is: I have to look after baby Eanny in the car :( Sob!

Today I needed to get some cakin' stuff for the ICCA wedding cake competition so we drove to ICCA Kota Damansara.

More GOOD news and BAD news stuff...

The good news? Ean was a goody good boy on the way there :) He only asked for Mommy 2 time and got easily distracted by other stuff and he fell asleep on the way there.. Yay! :D

The bad news? We got lost finding ICCA. (Yeah.. The shoplots are like a maze and I dont really remember the way out :( ) So we went at least 4 BIG rounds before finding it.. Sigh! Thank goodness eanny was sleeping or he would have made a FUSS!

Oh have I told you that I feel like I am in heaven when I go cakin' shopping?
Yeah I was in cakin' heaven today picking and choosing my stuff (I MISS ICCA tons! I wish I had my Wilton courses every day.. :( I MISS my friends and Nina.. And no I dont MISS the diploma! Too much stress! Yeah I learnt tons of stuff but I dont really wanna go through it again! Ok enough about how much I miss ICCA and stuff back to the 4th July 2010 post!) for the ICCA cake competition :)

AHH! ERROR! I JUST FOUND OUT IT IS THE 4TH OF AUGUST 2010! LOL! BUT STILL... IT IS A GOOD TITILE.. I WILL KEEP IT THAT WAY :P

Ikea time!

We didnt know the way there so we just followed our guts... And we got there safe and sound! Hooray for guts! :P

Had lunch and it was YENJI CLAY time!

Ugh-ish... (And Mommy if you are reading this pretend you did not see that word okie?)

I started on a new project.. The figurine doll thingy-ma-bob project.

The instructor are still the same and they still HATE (Ok fine.. DISLIKE) me... Sheesh kabab..

Made the head and hand (Yes only 1 hand.. I have to do the other as HOMEWORK...) today..

Just not so lately I got this polymer clay charms bug...
Making cutesy-putsy polymer clay food/figures/animals and sticking em' to key chains, bracelets, necklaceses etc..
So I bought 2 plain metal (One pink and the other black..) necklaces with that screw thing to attach it to the polymer clay..

Yes, you could say I was quite happy after getting this stuffies.. i couldent WAIT to get home to start!

On the way home from Ikea..
Eanny was GRUMPS!!
UGH!
I am glad I am still alive...
He is HORRIBLE when he is GRUMPS >:(
He made me GRUMPS too after that car ride home!
GRR You Leong Eu Eanny!

OK enough with the Leong EU Eanny-ing :P

I started polymer clay-ing the moment i reached home!
I was WAY too excited!!

At first i wanted to do a baby doll figurine holding a cupcake..
That didn't turn out well so I start on a NEW one!!

So this one was successful :)

It was a little tan colored rabbit no taller than 3 inches holding a cute little strawberry swirled cupcake :)

Pictures of it tomorrow!

Zzzzzzzzzzzz time!

I am home!

WARNING!!
Get ready for an extra LONG post!! Please DO NOT die reading :P








Sobs...! It has been a VERY short 3D 2N holiday in Genting highlands!!

It was So nice and cool up there and it is SO scorching hot down here in KL!
One of the things I really miss is the weather ha ha!!

We went to Genting Highlands with my cousins Nigel and Katrina and their Mom and my grandma! Lots of people so it was very merry! Ha ha! Remember the more the merrier?

Mommy had already planned what to do first up there and it was to visit the strawberry and mushroom farm in Gotong Jaya!

What a LOVELY sight! Strawberries here, strawberries there, strawberries EVERYWHERE!
Once you entered the farm you would be in strawberry HEAVEN ha ha!! (I am not much of a strawberry fan so I didn't really go CRAZY over them!)
It was a self pick farm... (RM 8 for 100 grams)
We got a basket and a pair of scissors and then of we GO (Picking strawberries!)!
I had a fun time picking and choosing the reddest and the yummiest (I couldn't really tell which one was the yummiest.. But I tried :P) strawberries!

Nothing much in the mushroom farm but I still cant stop thinking about the mushroom called 'Monkey brain mushroom'!! (Looks like one though..!)

We bought lots of different types of mushrooms (Including the monkey brain one! Ugh..!) and veges (There was a sort of dry market after the mushroom farm selling toys, veges, food, clothes etc etc..) for our steam boat dinner!

Went to a nursery (It was after the dry market.. Yeah the place had more places to visit then I thought!!) and saw some lovely flowers :)

STEAMBOAT time!!
Yum yum yum!!

We stayed up in a 2 bed room apartment in Awana... I like the free (But it is most of the time occupied so you have to try your luck to get it!!) Internet kiosk and the pool (Oh and I can finally do a PROPER handstand under water!!)!

The cable cars were down for renovation!! I was REALLY disappointed :(
The cable car was one of the many things I looked forward to up in Gentings...

So we had to take the old boring bus up to the theme park/theme park hotel :(
The roads were SCARY (Shouldn't be if you were driving a car but it is SCARY on the bus!) because they were so windy and narrow!

We didn't have time to go for the outdoor theme park (AGAIN!!)...
So we just went for the indoor theme park. (Boring?)
So bumper cars a 100x it was!!
I guess it was fun not THAT bad.. But secretly I still wish I went to the outdoor theme park as well :)

We met our Poh poh (Grandma) and Koong koong (Grandpa) on the (They came down from their farm in Karak) way down to Awana..
They brought LOTS of rambutans!! My FAVOURITE!!
I had a great yummy time munching on them :)

I suppose you guys know that we went there (To Gentings. Duh?) to celebrate (My brother's) Eu Han's 4Th birthday up in Genting highlands right..?
So well after the theme park we went back to the hotel to have cake and sing 'Happy birthday' too of course!!

Went to our favourite restaurant in Gotong Jaya for the dinner after having cake :)
Had a BIG HUGE feast! I enjoyed it tons!

Home the next morning...

Hope YOU enjoyed my story on my holiday to Genting Highlands!
Thanks for reading such a LONG post!
Hope you didn't die!! Ha ha!!
