My Dog Diary

Thanks to HM, my old friend since primary school, we finally had our first Pooch Series cushion cover up!

She hooked us up with her nice aunty who does very nice sewing, and actually got us the first batch of cushion cover months back. I’m really ashamed that I’ve been delaying the process to come out with some nice prints. Designing and printiing on cushion cover is just so different with doing them on t-shirts!

Anyway, when I was test-printing our Traffic Light Dream t-shirt, I tested on the cushion cover as well. And guess what? It turned out really nice!

The cover comes in light mint green, with envelope back, and will fit a 16 inch x 16 inch cushion well. Really makes a cool and funky decor!

Gosh! I’ve just noticed that it’s been so long since I last updated this blog. Goodness.

Many things happened over the last few weeks. The home accessories didn’t come out very well so we are now in the process of fine-tuning it. New t-shirt designs are ready, just waiting for the right time to print out and start selling. Hoo. In the meantime, I have a few pendants to share - yeah I know I said we’ll stop for a while but these little things are so cute and they keep calling me to make them out! lol excuses excuses.

And then with our new supplies coming in, we have also made a set for one of our existing pendant - a ring to go along with The Fall pendant. Specially ordered by one of our all-time-favourite customers, Bibiana from Sarawak. Thanks Bibiana, I hope you like it.

We’ll be taking off from our jewelry/pendant creation for a while - like one week or so - to update our t-shirt and another new line of home accessories. It’s been a while since we last working on those and I thought it’s best to update our creation and get things fresh again.

So here will be some latest creations. Drop me a note if you are interested, or you can see them with more details in our new Etsy shop (little widget on the sidebar).

1) Blue Confusion (in rectangular, cube, or round).

2) Black Horizon (in rectangular, cube, or round).

A few months ago I stumbled upon Etsy and found the site really awesome. It features sellers from all around the world, and the best part is, it features handmade products! There are thousands and thousands of great artists and artisans all over the world and their unique little arts are being sold there. I really like the site and I spent hours everyday browsing through the newly listen items. LOL.

I then talked to DARL and we decided to try listing some of our new handmade stuffs there, since not all of our stuffs are handmade. While honestly speaking, I don’t really know how the site work even until now, it’s so much neater then eBay and you really feel it more ‘humane’ in a way or another. And one day, just a few hours after we listed our pendants, we received an email:

WayHay ! You’ve been featured in my treasury !
http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list.php?room_id=53312

and included on my blog !
http://tallis-designs.blogspot.com/

We were featured - or to be accurate, our pendant was featured! lol. Many thanks to tallistreasures who had given us, the newbies, the chance of exposure!

Since DARL is still so busy with work (he barely sleeps…) I thought maybe I should post some updates on the recent jewelries/accessories that we have in store. Again of course, all proudly handmade.

I am not sure why but I’ve been very much into pendant. Not so much with earrings, bracelet, ring, toe ring, but very much in pendant. lol. The new accessories in store are hence, pendants. Nevertheless, more other accessories are lining up!

The first members in the Nature’s series - The Oat.

The following members in the Nature’s Series - The Fall. I personally like this very much as it really feels carrying some nature and the autumn when it’s on you.

And then we have some Punctuation Marks to show our mood.

All pendants are hand-casted via resin and attached to a silver plated bail. Size for the rectangular ones is approximately 4.3 x 3.5 cm (excluding bail). Size for the round ones is approximately 2.9 cm (excluding bail). Flat back on milky white background. Drop me a comment or a mail if you are interested in any of these. We’ll only be producing a maximum of 50 pieces for each design - and the best part is, since it’s hand-casted, there won’t be two exactly same piece. How’s that for a standing out unique piece that speaks your mood, at affordable price?
