Story behind the shop

 I'm a SAHM stay-at-home mum, who started volunteering and running recycling craft workshops for children and teenagers from family under the financial assistant scheme back in year 2007. This meaningful passion turned into mission dream really set me grounded confidently of the possibilities I can impact the world, ONE CRAFT AT A TIME. I teach them crafting, ways of salvaging thrash and give them a new lease of life, I sow the seed of hope in them that anything is possible.

As the blog owner of www.TimeForCraft.bogspot.com, where I blog about my crafts and share to inspire others, my wish is to make it contagious. I was very fortunate to join a social enterprise many years later, to teach a group of physically challenged and some family violent survivors, to hone their skill to craft their products and help marketing these products at a retail space. This journey somehow crystallized my dream of crafting for a cause, incorporating crafting a product with a social cause.

And as my dream gets clearer and passion grows stronger, I realized it's time for me to get my labor of love out to share with the world! Here I am, starting Nov7 Craft as a platform to market my handcrafted products. Doing what I love is totally awesome and I hope you'll be loving what you've bought too.

Hoping a business will grow may seems to be a personal goal, but for me my goal is to be able to sustain and provide job opportunities to some physically challenged individual, turning them the artisan behind these products. From a dependent who rely on others, they can then become financially independent, and thus gaining more confident and self respect. Please support this dream and help make it come true.

To make your purchases a more meaningful and value added one, I'm honored to pledge that a portion of these proceeds will go to making a difference to the life's of the needy which I'm volunteering. It's a self initiated group of friends who gather resources, come together to raise fund to get some 500 pack of goodie bags consisting of food and necessities distributed out to the senior and needy during new year. I thank you in advance for your kind contributions in support with this social cause.

Lastly, thanks for dropping by. I will be most happy to be serving you and answering your inquiry. So, do send me one and let this turn into multiple folds of greatness in a cause.

Wedding Car Decoration

 Got a referral from my ex-client to do this wedding car deco for her friend's wedding. As the choice of color 'blue green' is the only request from her, I've plenty of room to turn this luxury CLS250 into a simple and yet elegant wedding car.

 I used this beautiful blue green organza ribbon nicely paired with a silver mesh for the entire car, a mixed artificial floral arrangement was topped at the front of the car. A little flower accompanied with ribbons was attached at every door handle. And of course, lots and lots of blessing was sent to the couple while tieing every knots...:>

 I'm glad I've made another happy couple in their once a lifetime event. Looking back at my past wedding clients (not many though:P), perhaps all are in their parenthood by now... Hope to be in service to you and be able to send you my blessing too.

DIY Plastic Egg Carton Lantern

Image
This was another lantern project submitted for the competition which was not shortlisted. It  was a combination of 5 plastic egg cartons (translucent type) added with flowers made from it as decorations. I used the clear egg tray for those flowers, cut out each individual egg mould from the tray and coloured them with Peel n Stick colors, this created a transparent look with the lights on. I sticked two layers for each flower, one with the petal shape cut and spread out below the other without any cutting on top, which is the centre piece of the flower. I added some flower paintings in fabric paints using a more oriental style, the pop up effect of the paints looks outstanding on the plain plastic background. After the competition, I did some reflection and analyzed that I shouldn't have left the lantern plain without a coat of paint, and I have added too much flowers to it. The whole lantern looks compli...

Deadline Rush - DIY Lantern making

Image
It has been a busy week with a project to take part in a local lantern making competition. I thought I couldn't make it due to a few other things that came in at the same time. As Teachers' Day is drawing near, I have to produce at least another 8 gifts for my son's teachers as a token of appreciation. As I was not technically trained and the support from my 'personal technical officer' was unhopeful, I was unable to fix the light for the lantern. Luckily, I was able to recall a shop at People's Park Centre which might be able to help me with this. After much persuasion, the stall assistant is willing to do me that favor, he gathered the parts: LED bulbs, wires and battery holder etc., and started soldiering... Yeah! At last everything turns out well, though I stayed up till 3am to get those 8 gifts done. Well, I deserve a big pat on my shoulder! This is a heart shape lantern done by us which is made from v...

DIY Pep Bottles Lamp Shade

Image
It takes me around a year to collect the materials for these two projects. I've finished assembling the pieces many months back but hesitated to put it up as I've no idea how to fix these lamp shades with the existing lightings I'd on the ceiling. And truly, it takes some intuition to get a job done sometimes, and that was how I climbed up the high chair, stretched my hands and legs and go all the way without those thoughts that it can't be done... No regggrreet afterall!! Things fell in place. I was actually inspired by the creations I saw at a Christmas Recycling Exhibition done by the disabled at a shopping centre at Orchard road. Their works were amazing, turning waste plastic pep bottles into beautiful shades is really time consuming. It involved lots of hard work including cleaning the bottles, cutting out the shapes and combining them to form a shade. I replicated that idea to make two s...
