My friends said MORE EARRINGS PLEASE!!!~ So after some shopping and putting my fingers to work, here are the first few pieces, all earrings and made of quality material.

Home Sweet Home (SOLD: to Grace)

  • May. 25th, 2008 at 9:12 PM
(from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

fauna
   
group noun [U] SPECIALIZED
all the animals that live wild in a particular area:
an expedition to explore the flora and fauna of Hornchurch Wood


A quaint little white owl with grey spots comfortably sitting in its home at a tree hole: HOME SWEET HOME

As simple as that, but isn't it just sweet?


Honestly, this piece is sooooo cute that I really wanted to keep it for myself! But I figure that I cannot be so selfish as to do so!  



The owl is ceramic and the "tree hole" is onxy. All other materials are bronzetone metal and Swarovski crystals.

The total length of the necklace is about 47 cm, but I can gladly shorten or lengthen it for you. You can click here to access the gallery and see the original size of the photos for a clearer look if you like to.

This ONE-OF-ITS-KIND necklace can be yours and only yours for an affordable price at S$32!

Teatime with Bambi (SOLD: to Grace)

(from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

fauna
   
group noun [U] SPECIALIZED
all the animals that live wild in a particular area:
an expedition to explore the flora and fauna of Hornchurch Wood


Don't you just want to have some tea with cute Bambi in the forests? 

The pace of life in Singapore is so fast and people have so much stress! Won't it be great if you can wear some delightful fairytale-inspired bracelet on your wrist? Just take a look at Bambi every now and then and you will forget that you are buried under work at the office or attending some boring lesson! No, you are not stuck at some dull place! You are having some lovely Earl Gray with little Bambi and his forest friends like the bunnies, the sparrows and the butterflies in his little cosy corner in the forests! The sun is shining beautifully in the baby blue sky dotted with white fluffy cotton candy clouds and you are sitting on a cute little wooden chair under the cool shade of the forest canopy, with a quaint china teacup in one hand and the other hand gesturing excitedly as you talk about anything under the sun (literally) with Bambi and his friends, ie nothing about work or school!
 




This is really what inspired me to do this quaint bracelet. Doesn't it also have a nice Alice-in-Wonderland feel to it? And as you can see from the images, every bit of the bracelet is matched to the theme! All materials are brasstone metal and green Swarovski crystals.

The total length of the bracelet is about 19 cm, but I can gladly shorten or lengthen it for you. You can click here to access the gallery and see the original size of the photos for a clearer look if you like to.

For an affordable price at S$24, this bracelet is ONE OF ITS KIND

This silver bracelet is the first of the Vintage Collection. 


The Secret Ladies is inspired by the centre piece, a silver vintage pendant which houses a picture of a young English lady seated on a bench in a garden, accompanied by a pretty little girl.  

Who are they?

Is it a young mother with her little girl? Or are they sisters?




Can we ever unravel the secret, unlock the secret and reveal the truth?

We will never know for sure, but it does not matter for it is this quaint mystery surrounding the picture which makes this piece mysterious and beautiful. Why don't you buy this and have this very secret just for yourself? 

The total length is about 17.5 cm, but I can gladly lengthen or shorten it for you. Other materials include Swarovski crystals. You can click here to access the gallery and see the original size of the photos for a clearer look if you like to.

For an affordable price at S$18, this bracelet is ONE OF ITS KIND

I Don't Give A Hoot!

  • May. 25th, 2008 at 12:35 PM
(from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

fauna
   
group noun [U] SPECIALIZED
all the animals that live wild in a particular area:
an expedition to explore the flora and fauna of Hornchurch Wood


This is the first piece from the Fauna Collection.


Ain't these two ceramic owls totally adorable??

When I saw them, I knew I had to buy them and make something out of them! 
And tah-dah, here's the first pair of earrings I made for The BLING Escape: I Don't Give A Hoot! 

Owls are fascinating animals and spectacular birds of prey. There are over two hundreds extant species of owls but people are mostly not familiar with this group of birds. When people think of beautiful birds, they will tend to think of peacocks or birds of paradise but owls are actually very beautiful birds as well! Just see the Snowy Owl on the right!

Being mostly solitary and nocturnal, these birds are also very mysterious. Owls are also commonly associated with Wisdom. Remember the phrase "as wise as an owl"? 

I used to think that owls could rotate their heads 360 degrees! That turned out to be a common misunderstanding. Owls can actually turn their heads 270 degrees (135 degrees on each side) so that they can look over their shoulders for danger. Fascinating, aren't they? 



So why not buy this pair of I Don't Give A Hoot! earrings today and get some of that wisdom/mysterious/beautiful feeling rub off on you?? This quaint pair is also sure to jazz up any outfit! 

The total length of the earring is about 14 cm as seen in the last image, but I can gladly lengthen or shorten it for you. Other materials include Swarovski crystals and 14K goldfilled materials. You can click on the images to see the original size of the photos for a clearer look if you like to.

For an affordable price at S$16, this pair of earrings is ONE OF ITS KIND

As this only comes in ONE piece, if you will like to purchase it, please email me at theblingescape@gmail.com immediately! 

First-come-first-served basis!!

The Chinese Princess

  • May. 25th, 2008 at 10:33 AM

(from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary)

flora
noun [U] SPECIALIZED
all the plants of a particular place or from a particular time in history:
the flora of the Balearic Islands
Stone Age flora



This is the first piece I've created for this new website and also the pioneering piece of the Flora Collection. 

I have always like the feeling of gold with oriental pieces. The combination makes the entire accessory look classy, authentic and exotic at the same time. Which is why when I first spotted the pretty peach-coloured metal flattened beads with lovely flowers trimmed with gold endings, I knew that I had to pair them with brilliant yellow Swarovski crystals and a 14K goldfilled chain. The resulting piece, The Chinese Princess, is simply what I've aimed for. :) 







The entire necklace is about 46.5 cm long but I can gladly lengthen or shorten it for you. You can click on the images to see the original size of the photos for a clearer look if you like to.

Buy it, wear it and feel like The Chinese Princess today! It goes well with casual get-ups like a plain tee and shorts as it's sure to jazz up your outfit, goes well with dresses as well and also glam enough for dinner functions. 

For an affordable price at S$28, this necklace is ONE OF ITS KIND

As this only comes in ONE piece, if you will like to purchase it, please email me at theblingescape@gmail.com immediately! 

First-come-first-served basis!!

Welcome to...

...The Bling Escape.

Let me do a brief introduction of the escapee, yours truly:

I am a true-blooded Science student for half of my school life who at the same time loves the Arts too much to give it up completely. I owe this split personality character to my Mum who has always found herself in the same predicament and that’s the reason for her to enroll me in various types of art classes ranging from drawing and painting to clayart to origami to *gasp* Chinese calligraphy during school holidays when I was young (and very free).

I’ve never been formally educated and trained in Arts or handicraft but being passionate about it, I’ve made many pieces of craftwork over the decade mainly as presents to friends and as they say, practice makes perfect. It’s mainly my friends’ encouragement that made me realise that perhaps I can make my pieces available to people who can similarly appreciate them.

Another reason why I’m setting up this blog to sell pieces I make specially for this purpose is the fact that the last time I checked, I only have one neck, ten fingers and two wrists. Unlike some jewellery makers, I am mainly inspired by the materials I see when I browse through the supplier shops. I browse these shops like how other girls browse at Mango or Zara. I simply like to see the new stocks, and even though many times I shop with no prior intention to buy, seeing the charms and pendants always makes me so inspired that I end up bursting my wallet everytime. I have many ideas but I cannot possibly wear them all myself. Hence I thought it would be a good idea to make and sell pieces which I myself will love to buy if I spot them on a shelf. In a way, it’s perhaps to share with others what I think are pretty and unique, and I get an immense sense of satisfaction when someone likes what I’ve done.     

This is briefly how The Bling Escape comes about. For details on the ordering, payment, shipping, customization, terms and conditions etc, please click on the TAG links at the sidebar or the IMPORTANT DETAILS at the top bar. The first few pieces will be out very soon, namely from three different collections - Flora, Fauna and Vintage. Please look out for them! 

As I am particular about the creativity and innovation in my pieces and I don’t want them to be similar to what one can buy from Far East Plaza, many of my pieces will only come in one or at most two pieces depending on availability of the materials. Which means if you like any, you have to email me at theblingescape@gmail.com quickly to order it as goods are sold on a first-come-first-served basis! 

I hope that you will have a great time browsing through the items! :D
