BUY OR NOT TO BUY

When we see embroidery items, we sometimes think twice whether to buy or not to buy..you just look at the handmade embroidery on the table-runner below,,aren't they beautiful for our home decoration?. Yes..I only take pictures/photos but not buying it firstly due to the expensive price..just look at it and start to imagine that I can do it myself! I can look at the design and start doing it soon..

DON'T WASTE YOUR LACE

If you have extra lace that you made your dress, do not ever throw it away. You can trim the flowers neatly and put as a finishint to your new dress and you can embellish with some pearl beads plus sequins..I am pretty sure you will be wonderful and do not forget to match it with stunning colours..if you like to use colour block scheme,it is beautiful or you can also be simple and sweet if you use pastel colour or the same colour lace but on lighter or darker tone. Do not use the same colour or else you will waste your sewing time that it cannot even be seen.You can use silver lace or golden on black dress!Now you can enter the ceremony hall conspicuously..You just try my suggestion.. and do not forget to put iron-on crystal or white beads along the edges.You will never know if you never try!Another tip is you can put your waste lace on your plain coloured cushions..yes suddenly you can get nice cushions for your raya or just to renew your old one..ha ha you will be surprised with the result too..happy sewing.

TIME CONSUMING

yes...handmade products are quite time consuming to make..but I don't understand why people like to order or ask us to sew embroidery near to festive seasons. Actually,it does take a long time for example to sew even one petal of flower may take one hour.It may look simple but need special time and focus. Some of the clients said "..just make a simple one!" but it still takes a day to complete. For beads embroidery, we need to pick one by one..yes no doubt this easily makes people bored if they do not have the love and passion. This is why they should understand that handmade items are expensive as it involves 'eyes insurance' as those who have eyesight problem will definitely not eligible.It seems lucky for me as God still bless me with good eyesight without glasses yet (55 years old). My father still have not wear any glasses at the age of 80!Thank God.
