Treasury West - Blooming Blooming Everywhere

I am honored to be included in the following Treasury West - Blooming Blooming Everywhere by StormsHandicrafts. This beautiful treasury features the selection of flowers of every kind blooming!

Here's some of my favorites.

1. Flowerets in the wind - Earrings by pastelpetals.
   These beautiful flowers are intricately made and I have not seem similar flowers are these around. They are made by a fellow Singaporean who is a newbie to Etsy but makes the most gorgeous jewelry. Do check out her shop!
   
   
2. Ivory Hair Barrette by jurgitahandmade
   Love the middle flower and the beautiful color of the flower. This is perfect for a bride to be. :)
   
   
3. Poppy in Pearls by ME!
   This is my latest necklace and it has taken me quite a bit of time and effort to hook up all the beautiful white freshwater pearls into a lovely necklace. I love the brass flower as the centerpiece as it is very vintage inspired.
   
   

Etsy Treasury - Today's Showcase

I am honored to be included in an Etsy Treasury yet again! This time the treasury is called Today's Showcase by ozzana which features a selection of beautiful flowers and berries.

From the selection, this item is my favorite.. It a Berry Hat by BackThennishVintage! I have never seen a berry hat before. I thought it is just adorable.


My little Hedgehog necklace was also included in the treasury! I think it's just adorable to have this little thing burrowing among the beautiful flowers and hunting the berries! Don't you think he is adorable?

Visit to the HortPark

HortPark or also known as the Horticulture Park is Southeast Asia's first one-stop gardening and lifestyle hub. This is an additional to the many parks we have in Singapore.

My hubby took me there for a nice stroll and because he is a fan of gardening, we decided to check it out. I must say the first impression at the carpark and entrance of the park was amazing as there were so many variety of flowers and there is even a pond with lots of fishes.. So pretty & cute.

We checked out the Thai restaurant for lunch.. I must say it is quite expensive :( I should have walked a bit further to have lunch at the cafe *shucks* The view just outside the restaurant was amazing.. But what took my breath away are these beautiful flowers that I took while taking my stroll at the park.

On the downside, it started to pour shortly after our walk and we also found that there are some areas where the plants are not well taken care of. As compared to the Botanical Gardens, the maintenance at the HortPark was not up to par. There are certain areas and trails that were "childish" and seems to be a playground for kids instead of educational and well maintained for adults..

Nevertheless, here are some of my pictures!

Cherry Blossom Craze

I love cherry blossoms... Not sure whether anyone else feels the same about them.. but I think they are one of the most beautiful flowers in the world.. It's a pity I have not seen them in person.. I don't get to see them in Singapore... I just have not gotten myself together to fly to Japan in April.

Nevertheless, I have create a few pieces inspired by the beautiful cherry blossoms.
