To commemorate our wedding 10th anniversary, I decided we should take some family portraits together this year. After some time, I finally found a photographer and managed to organise a session with her last Thursday (08 Apr 10).
For the occasion, I had bought a lovely ivory satin dress during my last trip to Malaysia in Sept 09. But when it comes to nearer the date, I find myself shopping last minute for accessories to go with the dress. This includes hair accessories, necklaces, earrings and also shoes.
It was Monday night. I sat down after dinner and a day of shopping and suddenly decided to try making my own necklace. I'd seen the necklaces at the shops earlier and was thinking to myself, why should I pay for something that I can easily make? But it has been a long time since I'd touch my beading things. And I'm not even sure if I have the necessary beads. Anyway, I was inspired enough to try.
Two hours later, past midnight, I beamed proudly as I tried on my stringed necklace made from ivory, grey round beads, black grey heart shape glass beads and sparkling clear crystals. I had used whatever beads I could find in my supplies and stolen a few from a bracelet. But the colours were all perfectly matching to the colour scheme of my dress.
