So we've made it!


Finally, the shop is (almost) done! Even though there're still tons of work to make it perfect, it is good enough to open. We couldn't wait anymore since it was getting too close to Xmas. Now we're more than happy to give you a sneak peak of our new-born baby: The CityOwls!

The Owls are out, bright and shine in the city night!


Window display with homemade Christmas trees (which turn out to be our best seller so far).


Wooden boxes sit on a stool left over by the previous renter.


We hired a guy to paint this tree on the wall. Wonder why it's so "leaf-less"? Because it's winter now, and we will later make and add the leaves ourselves, a few at a time. Hopefully it will be in full bloom in spring!


I made this bag with our signature owl (made by my sis). It was sold already, but more are in production.



Some products in the shop that we ourselves fall in love with :)


Looking out to Phan Dinh Phung street...

Wishing you all a sweet Xmas and don't forget to stop by the shop to say hi to the Owls.

Our shop - Day 5 + 6 + day..... uncountable

Our shop almost complete. The front wall's finished and they're painting now.





We like white color so it's white everywhere.

The left wall



The right wall



The fitting room with the way to my studio inside.



It's all white..... except the skeleton of the loft, it's black!



Tomorrow, they'll paint once again.
I'm waiting for the day when they pave the floor of my studio.

Our shop - Day 3 + 4

There were some more trouble last days but it's alright now. The wall of Fitting room's finished.



And the front door's



almost done.



(Ha, my son seem like taking picture so much).

The rate of progress's too low, isn't it?

Our shop - day 2

Since our shop has a very high ceiling, I decided to build a loft and make it into a tiny studio for myself. So this is today's achievement. The skeleton of the loft is done.



I hope I could climb the ladder safely!




Here's my sister - our shop designer with the owl bracelet stolen from me (hic, I miss it)

First entry....



After 10 years working as a researcher, I decided to quit. This blog will be begun with my new job: a shop where selling decoration and handmade things. I hope it would bring me a new joy for my life. And I'll tell you interesting things that I find out when making craft, taking photos, traveling
....things happens in my life.
