Hi and Salam Ramadhan al-Mubarak :)
It's been more that half-a-year after I decided to leave my full-time job. Frankly speaking, I started with a scattered plans here and there, and then along the way the plans keep on changing. This decision makes my life upside down but with taking one step at a time, move on my own pace and surround myself with positive people inclusive having a mentor; I manage to grab all the chances and opportunities to move forward.
For this Ramadhan month, I initially plan to spent more time at my craft room to work on commission orders, future product and of course cook for break fast :) But, Allah's plan is more beautiful; I got invitation from Kak Syam to collaborate in CIMB Ramadhan Break Activity from 22nd June - 9th July together with EmiKaz and Kak Shasha. No need to think twice, I immediately took the chance. I got 3 slots to conduct quilling workshop where the module is making Hari Raya Greeting cards. We make Ketupat, Pelita and if we have more time, every participant is free to design any object they like on the card.
The participation responds are really overwhelming, where some came twice and most of them bring back the extra kits to share this craft activity with their kids or simply just making more quilling cards :)
Here are the pictures of my slots that we manage to capture.

While quilling, you can actually chit chat and talk about anything. No stress at all :) |
