NLB Call No: English 746.432 STO -[ART]

There are a few sections in this book that are exceptionally close to my heart now that I have left the design industry to become a personal banker in a financial industry. My favorite sections in this book includes Books: where they discuss binding techniques, Housewares: very zakka-ish, Stickers: print your own and stick’em, reminds me of good old Stickernation that’s now defunct (I hope they bring it back one day), Wall Graphics: cut vinyl to decorate the walls in your home, and Zines: create your own indie zine.

Bling it on!

Tutorials January 15th, 2008

Learn how to customize your mobile phone with Swarovski crystals and where to find them cheap in Arab Street, Singapore.

Oh no, I’ve blown my cover! Yes, I admit to visiting Xiaxue’s blog as much as I don’t like her in real life (because she likes to act diva and snobbish, rude fella who walks into someone else’s office yakking away on her phone disregarding everybody else), you gotta admit her blog is rather entertaining with lots of photos (I don’t like wordy blogs). I found this video very helpful and useful to those who never knew the existence of epoxy: forget “elephant glue”!

I didn’t write this tutorial, she did. Enjoy…

P/S: Not all Singaporeans speak her kind of English. For the really lost ones, Singaporeans do speak English. No, I’m not using a translator and no, Singapore is not in China! :p
