simple as ABC

life needs to goes on after the grieve. i tried very hard not to think too much about what had happened to the victims and their families or else i would never could shut my eyes and my mind at night..

... my internet connection was so poor these few days, making everything look more solemn :/ ... i'm sorry to bring my sad mood here and double apology if i'd affected you.

let's move on to something brighter. a new bag i'd made. a very simple bag and i'd named it A-B-C mini bag (not so creative i know :] ). something simple and easy but practical and convenient to use. its all started with this one that i'd made for my sis-in law. and i love it very much! it's so convy to put my purse and keys in and i just hang it in the gear place inside my car.

and so i continue to make another with light interface. and the moment came when the bag looks a little plain to me. i wanted to accessori-ed it! and i just knew what i want to make! not one but more! and before i begin with them.. i really need to continue making more bags so i could make more of that :)

and here they are!!! my own design of tassels!!!!! :)

i love them to bits!! i was dragging myself to finish all the bags (it was quite boring to do the same cutting and sewing of the same pattern for 5 times! lol) so i can start making these with matching japanese fabrics and colors!!

i'd decided to attach a bell in but it can be remove. you can add in your own cute etc. :)

the whole look was quite 'zakka' with wooden ring and cap and the leaf like bead. all with the leather string. i love them so much!

it look pretty on its own too :) my mind is brewing for more alternative material!!!
