Here is the blog of Kiwi, me, the girl behind Kiwi Productions.
It is about the "becoming of Kiwi", how I grew through designs and experiences. It is full of ramblings and daily mundane stuffs so be warned!
I started this blog to share with you how I came up with the different designs, because I like to know how things come into being.
Slowly, though, I could not help but want to share my life experience and insights with you too! Afterall, experience and thoughts shape who we are. Some of these posts are funny but others aren't. Feel free to use all those tags on the right-hand sidebar to help you filter through them or just read through them all!

In case you are new to Vox, I want to point out the little "Share" button on top of each post! That's the closest resemblence of the popular ShareThis widget. You can find the direct link to each post by right-clicking on the title! That's the link you want to tweet or re-blog! :)
That's it for this introduction post! Enjoy the rest of my blog :)

last weekend i worked on a new design for bracelet. I wanted to make something elegant but after adding and removing and such cycles, this rocker chic bracelet is what please my heart and wrist.
working on putting that up for sale soon.
still need a name for it.
ps. the black coin is the same glass coin for the previous necklace, which, i still need to take more pictures of.
this is a video from 2 weeks ago. mabbe 3. i lost track and sense of time
it's the first video that i tried to edit. i am not completely satisfied with it, but, i dont think it will get much better by throwing more time in it. hope you like it. or at least i hope you can watch the whole length of it :)
i think i'll update every other 10 days instead of every friday. i think i'm having a 10 day week :p
Ever since the move, i've been happier. time passed by faster, more stuffs accomplished, and i feel i'm progressing. on what, i dont know. but i think it's good.
this morning in the shower, out of nowhere, this thought popped into my head. how have i made the world a better place today? is what i am doing now making the lives of people of our generation and the next generation better, at least given my current knowledge?
before, my answer has been by doing this, i get more money so eventually i can do stuff i want to help. now, i think, i'm taking micro baby steps to making it all better.
what about you? have you do anything today that helps our children?
i didnt post last friday, and the weekend went away in a wink! sat. i went shopping and found boots that i like, but no, unless i started making money, i'm not going to buy it. plus, it's white. who wear white boots in rainy seattle/ snowy chicago?
anyway, ytd, i finally forced myself to sit down and work on my shop, and i finally upgraded some of the photos! there's still a few that i didnt repost, cos.. well.. shh.. but i couldnt find the prototype yet.
i now have my desk set up! so i should start working on them again! if i'm not too caught up with my other job :(
o right! i also worked on some other design stuffs... i'm going to post that in a few weeks.. can't wait for that! wanna see my sketch as a preview?
heart pendant has to wait.... cos i was so happily (or angrily) working on my other stuffs i totally forgot about it. but i love it sooooo much (and thx guys for your love on it) i really will want to work on it next!
ah, and i have a very interesting dream. my aunt was giving me riddles to solve. one of them was "solomon + men". answer?
...
kingdom.
i never ever heard of this riddle before, but it's really funny that it actually make sense.
watched some clips about it againt today and i cant help wanting to figure out who the dancers are!
Jonathan "Sugarfoot" Moffett -- Drummer
Charles Klapow -- dancer
i'll finish the post later. it takes a while to dig their info :(
complete info on the THis Is It IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1477715/
i took some photos in an attempt to share with you my stuffs (i think mine are more interesting than whatever you see on magazine. no?)
i would say that my style is a mix of vintage and whimsical, edgy but elegant. these are all inexpensive, (well, most), but they are anything but cheap. i guess you can see why i hardly buy anything in the States, and decided to make my own jewelry. besides the H&M cuff, and the black elastic bracelet i got from Old Navy, i got all of them overseas. do they fit your image of me through my texts, videos and designs? do they make you want to figure out how to cultivate your taste for unique pieces?
watched this is it. llllove it. i like the video for Earth Song in the movie than this one:
What about sunrise?
What about rain?
What about all the things,
That you said we were to gain?
What about killing fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the things,
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice,
All the blood we've shed before?
Did you ever stop to notice,
The crying Earth the weeping shores?
Aah............... Oo...........
Aah............... Oo...........
What have we done to the world?
Look what we've done.
What about all the peace,
That you pledge your only son?
What about flowering fields?
Is there a time?
What about all the dreams,
That you said was yours and mine?
Did you ever stop to notice,
All the children dead from war?
Did you ever stop to notice,
The crying Earth the weeping shores?
Aah............... Oo...........
Aah............... Oo...........
I used to dream.
I used to glance beyond the stars.
Now I don't know where we are.
Although I know we've drifted far.
Aah............... Oo...........
Aah............... Oo...........
Aah............... Oo...........
Aah............... Oo...........
Hey-yea!
What about yesterday?
What about the seas?
The heavens are falling down.
I can't even breathe!
What about apathy?
I can feel its wounds.
What about nature's worth?
It's our planet's womb!
What about animals?
We've turned kingdoms to dust,
What about elephants?
Have we lost their trust?
What about crying whales?
Ravaging the seas.
What about forest trails?
Burnt despite our pleas!
What about the holy land?
Torn apart by creed.
What about the common man?
Can't we set him free?
What about children dying?
Can't you hear them cry?
Where did we go wrong?
Someone tell me why!
What about baby boy?
What about the days?
What about all their joy?
What about the man?
What about the crying man?
What about Abraham?
What about death again?
Do we give a damn?!
