What's metropolitan gingerbread doing before christmas? 薑餅人的都市生活

Sunbathing on grassland WOWw!
I recently beading less (I admit that), sewing felt gingerbreads and cat portait stamps occupied all my crafting time. I am kind of the girl can't wait to realize when an idea comes in a sudden! I will say, crafting is mostly emotional and seasonal to me but it maybe the way to create unexpected crafts.

我承認最近好少串珠因為縫製薑餅人和貓貓肖像郵票佔據了我差不多全部的手作時間我就是那一想到新點子就要忍不住要立即做出來看看的麻煩女!對我來說,手工藝是隨性的,是隨時節的也許這就是我造出乎意料的東東的方法

It is how "metropolitan gingerbread" came out: imagining gingerbread have its soul and its own life before christmas. How does they live? What's they doing everyday? Will they be living in gingerbread houses, eating sweets and smiling all day? 


“都市薑餅人”是如此來的:想像一下,薑餅人它的靈魂自己的生命在聖誕節前,它過得好嗎每天搞什麼他們真的全住在姜餅屋裡,天天微笑的吃甜食

Big Baby Bakery started to release the gingerbread men/girls from all old fashioned gingerbread houses to 21century metropolis! They are excited to see sky high buildings, starbucks, iphone 5 and every little moment of a metropolitan. Here are 4 gingerbreads I've just created:

1. The happy investor: he is happy to see stock index going higher & higher through his ipad.
2. Geek: he is finding fun in the gadgets of his iphone 5.
3. Businessman: As you see, he is busy on phone calling.

Cat Portrait Stamps

I started my self-taught embroidery class again since I bought several pieces of polyester felt in July. The so-called self-learning lesson is in fact, a continuous try & error process with progressive improvement to realize my own ideas. Here are the cats I create by hand embroidery, from no.1 to 8~
自從七月時買了幾塊不織布開始,我憑著中學家政課學過的針法開始自學刺繡。所謂自學,都是不斷 TRY & ERROR,然後不斷改良出適合自己的方法,來實現自己的構思。

 
no 1. Unfortunately its eyes are too wide apart, turning it into a hamster.  
我開始做第1隻貓,可惜眼距太闊,形狀不齊,變了倉鼠。 


no2.  A cute fatty black and white, well done! I was happy overhead and brought myself a disaster..
第2隻黑白肥貓,做得好有神韻,以為自己成功了,滿心歡喜做第3隻黑貓。


no.3  Came over the 3 times of failure making a dead black cat, the final cat has a pair of beautiful eyes but a most unlikely accident happened to the cat mouth.
結果連錯3次,隻隻都像死貓,到最後一隻眼睛做得美,一輕率起來就做錯最不可能出事的貓嘴。
 
no4. Myself cut it into a mice, very carelessly.


有點不服氣地做第4隻花貓,今次我每一針都非常專注了,嘗試在貓眼下功夫,本來做得好好的,忽然又看它的臉不順眼,一剪,就剪出一隻老鼠來。


Feeling I am wasting my time to too big project, the 5th cat, I sewed every needle accurate and paid full attention to every thread color and thickness. It finally came out a weird tiger with its overbold eyelines.
這時候我有點覺得自己浪費時間,水平不夠。到第5隻貓,每一針都要準, 線的粗幼顏色都計算好,做出來終於像貓了,可是眼線太粗,變了一隻勁CHOK的老虎。



In that moment I asked myself:"Am I thinking too big?"
Came to the 6th jump,  Fatty yellow appeared at this time! Cute Fatty Yellow he is, I finally know the secret of this job and kept trying the 7th and the 8th cats...
究竟是不是太大想頭? 我不知道。來到第6跳,肥黃就在這時候出現了! 做好肥黃後,我終於知道這作業的秘訣是什麼,來到第7隻、第8隻又繼續試。



Every little cats here are illustrated from a photo album of the stray cats, and I hope you love this rugged beauty.

這些肖像郵票的主角都是我參考一本流浪貓影集的貓相做的,希望大家喜歡它們的粗獷美。

Decorating my product package 包裝小插畫


Yup, It is the beer necklace inside. 看封面就知裡面啤酒項鍊嘛

From the beginning of my craft business in June to now, I haven't customized brand logo because I have no idea on the design! What to do with my brand sticker, namecard and packaging is still a crafting thing. 

I print some sheets using A4 gold color paper and my home printer, cut and glue the sheet to every little gift box and, illustrate in the blank somthing related to the beadwork. 

The result is quite nice.. at least they match!

我的手作業務6月份一開始到現在,我都沒有為品牌定製卡片貼紙包裝之類...因為我想不到設計什麼LOGO! 就連字體也想不好...怎麼辦? 結果每次寄貨,禮物包裝仍然是一個各具特色的手作事 

用我家打印機,打印了幾張A4彩色紙剪貼到每一個小禮品盒封面為了填補紙片上沒有LOGO的空白位置,唯有跟據內藏的飾物畫些小插圖裝飾一下囉! 哪麼收禮者可以"看圖識物"啦! 

我覺得結果還搭調的,是嗎?

It is a 21st birthday gift a mother bought to her daughter. I thought If I was 21 I would still love a gift wrapped like this. 這是一個母親給她女兒21歲的生日禮物我想如果我21歲我還是會愛一個這樣的禮品

New things in October 中秋過後的新作

Beers necklace - Oktoberfest, seed bead bib necklace, mustard yellow gold, fall color, OOAK gift for her, seasonal thanksgiving jewelry
I haven't blogged for a while because of Chinese full moon festival (I've taken rest at all) and I am recently busy with crafting new collections. For this year, Sept 29 is the full moon day in chinese calendar. It is one of the largest festival in chinese culture so you may see all of the chinese worldwide will celebrate during the days. So do I!

Talk about my crafting. I recently post my items in etsy first and I regret not to post more in dawanda. Here I am to share some new beadwork I made and they are all ready for shipping! I have some new move in the coming future but wanna keep it secret this moment...

我真有一段時間沒有上博客了,因為中秋時小休了幾天,而且近來忙著做一些全新系列的作品...真是忙瘋了! 今年的中秋節是九月最後一天,在香港又有十一國慶,加起來的幾天假就懶了一下啦!

談談我的新作吧。近來我只把作品放在 etsy 上,看來我是忽略了 dawanda 的。就讓我介紹一下最近的新品吧。其實 BigBabyBakery 將有一些新動向,現在可要先賣個關子了, 嘻嘻

Fall harvest statement necklace - autumn color, OOAK thanksgiving jewelry, seed bead woven, woodland



I hand stitched the beaded vegetables I made before to a piece of manmade leather, and form this little necklace. 我把早前做好的串珠秋收蔬果收集了幾片,手縫固定在這人造皮革當成的菜藍子裡。



So fruitful!

The followings are the "fall leaves collection" I listed in etsy. I personally enjoy beading these leaves, and they are real beautiful...

以下是我在 etsy 上架的落葉集”。我個人喜歡串這些葉子,它們真的美麗...

Fall leaves necklace - autumn color, seed beaded jewelry, wire beading, gold plated chain, nature deco, halloween, thanksgiving gift

I love the idea that the fall leaves laying on my wraist, feeling the softly brightness. 我愛看秋葉躺在我的手腕上,感覺輕輕的亮度

Oktoberfest has past but but there is still a beer overflow!~ 啤酒節已經過去這裡仍然啤酒滿瀉!

Beers necklace - Oktoberfest, seed bead bib necklace, mustard yellow gold, fall color, OOAK gift for her, seasonal thanksgiving jewelry


I tried to make some change in my direction of beadwork: less cakes, more flat pieces and more colorful. I hesitate to create without thinking but after several failure I think "do it first" can save me from stucked up. Brainstorming can generate something you have never thought of...

我試著改變我的珠飾方向少一點蛋糕,多一點平面珠飾更加豐富多彩。我毫不猶豫地創作,不經思想過濾因為經過多次失敗,我認為先做後想”可以把我不被思想卡住。就像頭腦風暴可以產生從來沒有想過東西....
