日本交流！

剛收到好消息，朋友的姐姐遊日本的市集藝墟，見到有羊毛氈的檔位，特登買了個送給我，很想快些見到它。但是最想是親身到日本一遊，與當地羊毛氈手藝定互相交流一吓，一定會學到嘢。現在努力儲錢中，希望今年年底去到。好心急呀！

My little honey!! Meeko Pig Pig ^u^

This is my first felt wool doll, Mr. Professor Meeko! so kawaii, I love him so much!

真的很快啊喲！

今天用了La Belle Epoque的台灣羊毛，嘩，真的氈化得很快，減少針戳的頻度，省回不少氣力，至於效果亦不錯呢！蠻開心的。

新亞夜投攤有點吸引喎！

剛收到電郵有關中大新亞夜投攤事宜，實在有點吸引！日期是三月二十五號（星期四）晚上七點半至十一點半，地點：新亞小百萬、新亞圓形廣場、林耀明夫人堂及停車場（雨程另改地點）。可以讓多些學生認識本地藝術文化，是一個好的渠道。還有以下的市集可以選擇：

Stanley Arts Mart & Sandymama Dot Com Market

I went to Stanley Arts Mart yesterday. I saw several stalls there, one of them is selling felt wool products-choco bird. I'm going to apply April market there because target customers will be there. I hope I can do the best job and start to prepare my new products now. I have another stall at sandymama. dot. com market in Central on 13-14 March from 12-8pm. The exact address will be announced soon. Welcome to visit me and say hi!! See you!

Stamp!

I'm going to make my own stamp for Tango Zakka today. YES! Then, I'll pack my products in a good way. What should I do in packing that can attract more customers? Still thinking and thinking. Please kindly give me advise. Thanks!

Thanks for valuable opinions again!!

The temperature is only 7.7 today. Wow, it's rainy and cold but I like it. I feel happy to have lunch with my friend in this afternoon. He gives me a lot of valuable opinions such as posting more photos on my blog and making a price list. I'll do it. Thanks a lot!! ^u^

四本好書！

兩個月內，買了四本好書，　包括：第一次學做羊毛氈，巧手學做羊毛氈，Designer Needle Felting, 池口紗代的羊毛小物。每本都有特點，能給予我很大的想像空間，很多古怪念頭 ^3^　除了看相關書籍，我還會看其他手作書籍如刺繡，雜貨，布藝等，這樣更能吸取更多新點子，套用於我的羊毛氈作品上。真的很喜歡看書，若能與有幾緣人互相分享，那麼就太幸福了！我會密切留意任何新書出版，再介紹給各位。如果大家有好書推介，歡迎歡迎呀。

多謝好友意見！

與好友看完七十二家租客，之後去了肯德基吃飯，邊討論我家品牌的事宜。實在太感激好友的意見，當中提及要分二條主打線：一是可愛，二是神似，這樣可以吸引不同年齡的客人，我也十分贊成。其實做貓狗要神似難度極高，是磨練自己技術的時候了，我需要多點正能量來完成每件精心細繳的作品，我要變成羊兒氈達人。YEAH!! ^0^　希望大家多多支持呀！

新年大計！

新年第一件要改進的事情是電話繩扣之緊實度，以防止鬆脫，相信用針線手縫會好些。其次是貨品的種纇要較多元化，讓客人有多些選擇，能感受到羊毛氈的溫暖：）
過年沒有什麼節目，只是留在家照料小狗，沒有新的手作品出爐，不停重覆思考自己對於手作事業的路如何走下去，希望有新的點子，現仍處於起步階段，仍需繼續努力奮鬥下去，這是我今年的目標。

Happy Chinese New Year!! ^0^

祝各位新年快樂，虎年行大運，身體健康！

年三十做羊仔！

今日是年三十，突然好想做一隻羊仔，於是立即行動。用了卷曲羊毛，嘩！效果真的不同，仿如真的一樣，很開心啊！
過年喇，不如做套十二生肖啦，大家有什麼意見呢？

俄羅斯娃娃與香包！

今天做了一個俄羅斯娃娃，用了不同的方法，先把身體連接才針戳輪廓，這樣做法不是太好，因為難於針戳出頭巾部份，好像未被包好的感覺。下次先把面部表情和頭巾針戳好，看落會更自然一點。
跟住又於香包上針戳兩個紅心，再縫上了La Belle Epoque的字母lace，感覺很清雅，希望朋友會喜歡這個設計簡單的禮物^0^　接著會嘗試花朵圖案，希望令平平無奇的香包添點生氣。

羊毛氈手藝

羊毛氈是一種傳統手藝，早於日本，台灣及德國等地流行，有「療癒系的手作」的稱號。羊毛質感溫暖細緻，加以針戳或濕氈的方法，便可創造一些獨一無二的作品。羊毛手藝易學難精，特別是製作人物和動物，其面部表情、身體形態要掌握得好，必先得知各類羊毛之特性，加以配搭，才能做出栩栩如生的作品。至於掌握適當的羊毛分量可從經驗累積下來，利用自己的想像空間，多發揮創意、堅持原創才是最重要的。

重新定位

今日去La Belle Epoque買字母lace，與老闆娘談了一會兒，獲益良多。得了老闆娘提點，發現自己有很多不足之處，要重新定位。首先建立網誌為自己宣傳，與各纇手作人互相認識，交流心得。接著是自我品牌的羊毛氈公仔之突顯性，每天都嘗試不同的做法和不同物料的配搭，現仍處於摸索階段，希望盡快給大家換然一身的感覺。請大家密切留意喇！
