Our Colour Pencil Box

The children have many sets of colour pencils and crayons and they were full in two zipper pencil cases. So I decided to make a drawer box to house all their pencils.

I love how Baobao’s drawing adds his signature to it. Childish and unpretentious.

The crayon compartment is made from an used orange juice box.

The cardboard was ikea packaging for our wardrobe some time ago. I keep some of those because they are very handy. I love how they can be recycled and dolled up with decorative tape.

Isn’t this tape to die for??!! 😛

About Earthtone

Hello, I am an Ex Accountant, now investor. In crawling the internet, I came to realise the information gap between the East and West. This has caused much tension and misunderstanding on both sides. Being bilingual in English and Chinese, I thus task myself to close this gap. The world is undergoing a phenomenal change in this moment. China is at the episcentre of this change. It is super exciting to be part of this era. I hope to share more stock market news generated within China to interested parties so you can participate in this exciting ride as well. Here, I curate information gathered in the Chinese cyberspace, translate and present them in this space. Focus will be mainly in tech stocks. If there are particular areas you are interested in, you may also let me know. I may look into it.

    happy belated wedding anniversary! 9 years and going strong, woohoo!!

    just recently i have a good friend her husband came to US for a 6 days business trip. he basically came with 2 empty luggages and when he left home he had the suitcases filled with 2 sets of corelle, coach handbags, so many legos and thomas the tank engine for the kid/s (wife is a preggie too), hershey kisses and whatnot …

    where is your hubby now? ask him to get you a coach. i have coupons for the factory outlet and they are so much cheaper than in Asia countries!
