As I mentioned in the previous post, Emily brought me to the Textile Centre for some craft shopping. Actually I used to frequent a billiards place around there but I never knew about the craft shops. I ended up buying lots of zippers despite the fact that I already bought a lot previously, and also a new button cover kit! I have a Japanese button cover kit but it’s very hard to get the refills, hope this one’s good!

Zippers I already own

Happy colors!

New button covers

On a side note, I am going to JB tomorrow for “lok lok” and Jakarta on Monday! Hope I’ll get to take lots of photos!

Last Monday, Emily and I met at Lavender MRT Station for some shopping and exploring! She brought me to the Textile Centre for some cheap zippers available in every color! We bumped into her family and they treated me lunch, we even had tea together! After that, we trotted down to Arab Street!

Yup, Arab Street!

Do you know what’s inside these bottles?

Shop owner doing a cocktail?

Those are actually perfumes! Made of natural oils, I’m not sure if they’re essential oils, the shop owner can concoct store-brand perfumes like Chanel, Burberry, Nina Ricci or even Calvin Klein! There are a number of such shops on Arab Street and each vial costs only a couple of dollars.

Look what else we found!
