A Mind of My Own

I have loved to buy jewellery and have tons of earrings. DD will attest to that since he sees me wearing different ones every time I like earrings as it’s easier to change them than necklaces. With some encouragement from Endoh and a few friends including DD, I decided to make my own pair by mixing and matching the ones that I have.

My first attempt was to create a pair of mismatched earrings. It turned out to be rather nice. Since then, I have made a few more pairs. The rest are matching earrings. I hope to be selling them off once I get my site settled in.

Currently, I am in love with wire wrapping and have been sourcing Etsy for inspirations. There is a huge collection of wire-wrapped necklaces, pendants, earrings and bracelets. I hope to find some materials that are suitable for sensitive skin too. Therefore, my preference is to silver since I have sensitive skin for non-pure elements.

At this moment, sterling silver is expensive to buy and I can’t find any shops that sell silver wire for my wire wrapping purposes. I have gone to Chinatown and Arab Street based on recommendations. I do understand that Spotlight sells such stuff but in small packets that I feel is too expensive.

When I was in Arab Street, I saw Xiaxue. The owner told me after he asked if it was my first time there and out of curiosity, I was wonder who the blond girl was and realised that it was her.
