The upcoming altered project that I have intended to do is a wooden bird house. Here is the preview of the supplies that I have prepared for this new project. Most of the supplies for this project, I have gotten from Thailand Bangkok during my January business trip. I have also discovered a new type of art & craft supplies in the Chatuchak market.

Retro Family Recipe Book

Good afternoon everyone. How is your Sunday afternoon?

Today, I am here to share with you a retro altered family recipe book that is done recently that I have always wanted to do. Finally, during the Chinese New Year long holiday, I have some personal time to start making this book. I am quite satisfied with the whole design outcome and now I can't wait to input my mum's recipes. Hopefully, I can pass this recipe book down to my own children. =)
