This cafe I found is called Orange Thimble. It has a lovely setting, with lots of individual rooms and a back yard filled with sunshine. I ordered a latte and an English roll and sat there on my own for like 3 hours? It is somewhere you can chill out for the whole day and not worry you will be kicked out! Plus, the staff has a great sense of humor too.

Coffee Shop in Singapore
I woke up really early today at 5:30 in the morning to do a bridal make up in the East side of Singapore. After that I went to a lovely coffee shop in Tiong Bahru to relax and to recover!

Kalo's Recipe Tote
This is my latest design - Kalo's Recipe Totes!
The idea sparkled while I was cooking one night. I was thinking of things to make as a present for a good friend, who once asked me for the recipe of Chicken Chow Mein. (I cooked this for her once, she loved it and after the meal, she took down detailed notes of the recipe!) So that was how the RECIPE TOTE IDEA came out!
They will soon be available in my SHOP, with more recipe designs.
If you are interested to get one, please email me at info@kalomakeart.com
They are HKD$150 each (OR GBP15)

Bespoke Wedding Invites for Tammy + Billy
Concept
Tammy and Billy were looking for a design that is modern, colourful yet traditional. I also included some silver ferns to symbolise their time spent together in New Zealand before moving back to Hong Kong.
The floral patterns I illustrated were also used as the backdrop for their wedding photographs!
Method
Bespoke wedding invite design was printed using LETTERPRESS method onto textured paper. (English message on one side and Chinese message on the other side)

Dutch Skyline + Hong Kong Skyline
Concept
Carlijn and Christiaan are originally from Holland and were getting married in Hong Kong, hence the subtle combination of the Hong Kong and Dutch skyline.
The red cherry blossom represents the happiness for their wedding!
