Now that your site is so easy to navigate, it is ever so quick to just pop over and buy something. If not for the fact that my library is not up and I am looking for readable books, I would have got something from you already. So I will never stop popping over to Treefeathers to check out your stuff .<br /><br />Thank you for visiting :):) and taking the time to comment. <br /><br />By the way, my sis got the apron from a friend in Thailand ..lol!

It was Day 82-The Story of Coffee but I used real coffee..lol!<br /><br />Thank you for all your tips on fie safety. I had thought about it and I will be really careful when I finally use it.

I am finicky that way and know that I will mess it up if I should work there. So I work everywhere else, mainly in the dining room with the messier work in the kitchen and "backyard porch" and stitching in my bedroom.<br /><br />The craft room was and still is a guest room. So I can't afford to make it too messy. Now even more so since a mutual friend of ours will be visiting me in July/August (yay!).<br /><br />I have just added even more things in the room now with the hanging of some Indian mobiles. I am not sure if it is restful enough for my guests with all the dolls, elephants probably causing a ruckus when I am not there.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-73426752075870525752010-01-10T12:05:12.567+08:002010-01-10T12:05:12.567+08:00You know Liz, I used the term "chai" to ...You know Liz, I used the term "chai" to just mean "tea". Over here, I understand that "chai" also only mean "tea" for Hindi & Punjabi people. In Mandarin, the word for tea is "char". I only found out after doing this post that many Europeans use the word "chai" (apparently even the British during the colonial days) to mean Masala Tea. <br /><br />My favourite tea is Masala chai. Next is ginger milk tea. My order for a masala tea often took ages because a good masala chai is made by boiling the milk with the tea leaves and spices and then leave for a while for maximum taste. Then when I was in KL, my tea came within 1 minute. We were told that you can now buy masala tea all in one tea bags now from India. That's <br />definitely on my shopping list now.<br /><br />Should be quite easy for you to get the spices in KSA? Maybe even the tea bags. <br /><br />By the way, how do you know that my next project will involve the harem girls again? *eyes narrowing with suspicions.Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-6409112310181815392010-01-10T11:46:23.813+08:002010-01-10T11:46:23.813+08:00O yeah, Helene, I forgot to mention that there was...O yeah, Helene, I forgot to mention that there was one tiny mistake you made with a bottle that cracked me up.

Tha...Helene, please don't worry about the glue. That's the easiest to fix. Remember how when my howdah candle holders reached you, they all fell into pieces? Now, that's a person who really didn't know how to handle glue. I will remove the traces with a needle. It's a 2 seconds job. By the way, some of the glue was also my fault, like Bendik's spritzer. Cos it came off the bottle. <br /><br />I am still not sure if I will use everything in my next project (although I will use them all eventually) but I can tell you the stained glass looked fabulous when I tested them out for what I wanted to do. Now is to research a bit on the use of stained glass in India during the colonial days. <br /><br />We all know Coco Chanel started her company in the early 20th century so it would still work if a terribly fashionable European lady carry her bag ? We'll see. <br /><br />The frame is perfect and I too was wondering if I should change the picture. It can also be used for my British Victorian family staying in India at that time.<br /><br />Your gifts are all very useful .Sans!https://www.blogger.com/profile/07142349451568183257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5254510705233595277.post-27037701257253346312010-01-10T11:06:43.864+08:002010-01-10T11:06:43.864+08:00Thank you Casey!
