MyPaper 我报! DIY - Draw & Sew Your Own Stuffed Toy

Here's another article that was published in the Chinese version of My Paper on 25 January 2013. This project is a "sequel" to the T-shirt drawing project, using the same fabric markers. You can check out the actual article at www.mypaper.sg, 25 January 2013, Chinese edition, Pg B32. The actual article can be seen here, followed by the English version.

New Year, New Direction

Another MAAD over, and now back to the worktable. We received a lot of wonderful suggestions from customers for our leather goods and we will try to get the new designs out a.s.a.p! On the horizon, the new year has brought new tidings - good and bad, and as such, we are implementing some changes to our business focus and products. To start off with our new direction, a clearance sale is coming for some of our goods! Watch this space in the next few days... I'm still working out what to clear! Till then, have a good weekend!

Free Tutorial : Paper Craft - Making Hanging Decorations

Okay, this tutorial came out a bit late. It was meant originally for publication in MyPaper but it wasn't. So, since it was made, I might as well publish it here. You can still use the same method to create decorations for the upcoming Chinese New Year like oranges, lanterns etc. You can even make bigger paper devcorations for other occasions like birthday parties etc. Just use your imagination!
