Just to update a little on the flea that passed. Honestly, the crowd was not too great but hey, I picked up some experience for future fleas. Some of my items are already on etsy for sale so I'm going to put up the links in the next post.

Here are some pictures. Enjoy.

Flea Market Day 1

Today's flea market sale at Changi Airport Terminal 3 was rather slow initially and only picked up around evening time. Nonetheless, Melissa (from meltitude crafts) and I enjoyed ourselves. Photos will be uploaded. Tomorrow, we'll be down there again to sell my coptic binding and 'journal binding' books.

A number of constructive suggestions that was given today and I am thankful and will take that into account as this book thing slowly picks up.

1) Use acid free paper. It is pointless to have such nice designs and well done pieces if the paper itself isn't archival. I'll take that into account.

2) Custom make books. There seems to be a demand, once I'm ready to provide that service I'll gladly do so. So watch this space!!!

3) Have more options with different number of pages for different people of different needs/wants.

This was definitely an eye opening experience. Thank you for all your support. The first collection release will be temporarily dated on the 14th of December.

THANKS ALL WE CAME DOWN AND SUPPORTED US!

Handbound Books

Ever wanted a notebook that is unique and only you have. Well, look no further because here you are looking at hand-bound books. The books are sewn via coptic binding and the cover comes in various designs (but I'm only going to make each cover once)!

The first collection will be out shortly! Designs on the cover by SEI and Pebbles Scrapbook paper.

Til then.
