Winter Solstice

The Winter Solstice Festival or The Extreme of Winter (Chinese and Japanese: 冬至) is one of the most important festivals celebrated by the Chinese and other East Asians during the dongzhi solar term on or around December 21 when sunshine is weakest and daylight shortest.





Traditionally, the Dongzhi Festival is also a time for the family to get together. One activity that occurs during these get togethers is the making and eating of Tangyuan (湯圓) or balls of glutinous rice, which symbolize reunion.

Our family trip for early Christmas

We went to Singapore for early Christmas celebration.

Mint* Museum of Toys is one of the place I found interested (for me and not the kids).
(* Moment of Imagination and Nostalgia with Toys)
The kids prefer playing/touching with them instead of just looking at.

The pic below shows the vintage Christmas Toys mainly from Japan, UK and USA.
This display mainly dedicate to this special season.


Those toys are display in the stairway and also occupied 4 levels of the museum.


The tin toys ....

Vintage enamel signs in the cafe house


Popeye, the sailor man ~ my favourite cartoon when I was little. The childhood that I long forgotten.



I don't think I own any of this Bears when I was little

Dolls from China.



Those vintag-ish cover caught my eye

Mini Book for December

I intend to keep the habit of creating the mini book by monthly basis. Peek here for November mini book.

I utilised the past month brochure of Kinokuniya Book Store.


Cut them into half.



Some plain images from magazine cut out and covered the pages inside (like the following pic)




The journey fro month DECEMBER is about to begin ....




On the left hand side, i stick with yellow post it notes.

"Do something everday" was a record/to-do-list for a day.










My heart is singing....





I make an extension page.



The back cover and the belows pic was how the mini book look alike.




I'll be away from blog-land this 2 weeks...see you soon :)
