As a result, I actually feel quite restless and sometimes even rather lonely....
So when I came across a FB ad that says there is a Necklace workshop at Tangs, I asked around to see if any of my friends are interested to take part since it seems like a very interesting experience...
And KP said she is keen and so we signed up together:)
On the actual day of the workshop, I arrived a little earlier and felt hungry.. so I went to jalan jalan and buy myself an avacado juice for lunch..
Times up.. I came to the place where the workshop is held...
Since I was early, I went to the back to take a look at the yarn.. I knew we were going to make one single colour and one double colour necklace... so hor, I went to see see look look and decide what colour I wanted to use...
So while looking hor, I was almost certain I was going to do teal with light blue and some other dark colour...
I dunno why when I finally started making and had to choose colour... I selected this instead:)
Lesson started! Woohoo!
I figured people can also buy the yarn and learn online.. which will be cheaper.. BUT.. the good thing about having a teacher is she will teach us the finer details like:
- The importance of using a proper fabric scissors
- How to tie a good end knot that will NEVER unravel
- How to unpick if you make a mistake
Truth to be told, I dunno why I chose this colour.. till this day, I have yet to wear this out because it doesnt match anything that I have:) hahahaha... And I think I made it a little too long.. so gotta unpick it to make it shorter....
KP doing her pink and grey one.. which when I look back, seemed like a better idea.. hahahaha:)
Remember my plan to do blue and blue? I dunno why... when I finally went to choose, I chose the red and blue one....
THis one is made by my teacher.. for sale at $56
Almost completed..
KP hard at work:)
Tadah!
Actually afterwards, I went to walk around and saw some other pieces for sale.. hiya, should have gone there for inspiration an I was like. "Wah... why din i think of this combi. why din I think of that combi..." Cos so much nicer than the ones I did....
But in the end i discovered the combi I chose is still the best for me... cos it matches my wardrobe:) hahaha
All in all a fun experience... I was told Daiso also sell jersey yarn.. maybe can buy to make more ;)
