Out of reach and need help!



It's another hectic work week, so I won't be able to answer your queries here.  
It's our turnover (read: press work) at the office tomorrow,
and it'll probably end in the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday.
Then i'll be out for meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday.

For those who have paid for their orders (in full), you'll receive
them on Thursday, at the latest. I finally completed your orders
today. whew. i am including some nice freebies for you girls, for the long
wait. hope you like them.ü

For those who haven't deposited their payments yet, I won't start
working on your orders until you do so.

I'll be back online on Wednesday.

By the way, do you have direct contacts of celebs? I am in DIRE
need of direct numbers, their handlers aren't answering! Basta any
smokin' (read: sikat) celebs that you know of, patulong naman. pretty
pleeeeease. Pleeeeeeeeaassse save my life. Badly badly needed!!!

P.S.
Whatdahell's wrong with my blog interface? what's with the prose-like format???
i hate the new multiply interface. :( everything's gone haywire with my account!

I'm pooped


Finally had time to check this site. Remember Andy Saks in The
Devil Wears Prada? Take away all the pretty clothes, the makeup,
and the killer boots, and I would have sworn I was her this week.
Running around the city doing shoots all week, dealing with crabby shop
owners, and kissing celeb asses isn't my cup of tea. ugh.


At least my boss isn't anywhere near Miranda though. Thank
God. (But she does have her steak and unpublished harry potter
edition moments).



So for those wondering why i disappeared from cyberspace this week, now you know.

Please confirm payment


I received gcash again, and i don't know who it's from. damn
globe. i didn't receive a message about the last gcash
transaction. if i hadn't loaded 25 worth of credits using gcash,
i wouldn't have known about my current balance!



So who else sent me gcash aside from beachjunkie/victoria, notsolillulu/lou, and thesnowqueen?



Please pm me. Pasensiya na po.



To avoid another "anonymous gcash payment" situation, please send me a
message with your multiply id, amount sent, and date of payment after sending the gcash.
just in case globe doesn't update me again.



meanwhile, i'm storming to the nearest globe center to fix this.





Cuenca Bazaar

Start:     Dec 1, '06 01:00a
End:     Dec 3, '06
Location:     Cuenca Covered Court, Ayala Alabang
My one and only bazaar this year, so it's going to be a blast!

I'll be releasing new designs here, so i hope you could come to see the new stuff. Enjoy discounts and freebies!

I'm going to Quiapo this week... may papabili kayo?


Hi everyone!



I'm going to quiapo this week to buy chains, ziploc bags, and earring
posts. Parang sayang sa effort kung ito lang bibilhin ko, so....



If you need something from Wellmanson's, please pm me. I can be
your personal bead shopper for the day! I'll just add a 15 to 20%
service charge, depending on how bulky your items are.



it's still going to turn out cheap.  for instance, a strand of
acrylic pearls worth P18 will only be P20.7.  it's cheaper than
buying from other multiply sellers (who are selling these pearls for
P40)!



You can then meet me at Robinsons Galleria, or Katipunan area for your
materials. Or you can have your items shipped thru JRS express
(65pesos within metro manila for 500 grams).



So do you need anything?ü

I can't reply right now

Hi everyone!   I'm having one hell of a busy week, so i don't have
time to go through all your personal messages and posts, super
sorry!  i'm just using my fone to email post this right now... OT
at work!



to those who have paid already, aside from beachjunkie/victoria and
notsolillulu/lou, please text me the amount you sent.  globe
doesn't send me updates! argh.

What do you think of the new look?

I finally discovered how to edit the look of my site.  Please tell
me what you think.  Is the text still readable?  How's the
navigation?  Would appreciate your feedback!  Thanks!

Odds and Ends SOLD OUT


Super cheap! With navy blue stripes.

this is 2 inches long.

I was cleaning out my bead station today, and i found a lot of extra beading materials that i haven't touched and have no plans of using. The impulsive shopper in me sometimes gets out of control in a bead store, thus my huge collection of beads and materials.

Consider this the garage sale of beads... To rid myself of bead junk, i'm posting some stuff here at bargain prices. I'm selling some of the stuff for the same price I bought them for, while others at palugi prices. I just need to get rid of these, so please help! hehe.

You'll also find some handmade clay beads that I made a few months back. Stock up!

Angeli's Gifts-on-a-Budget

http://giftsonabudget.multiply.com
Since most of us are usually on a budget, I created a new site where you can shop according to price points. All the items in my new site are grouped according to their price. Very handy when you're looking for, say, a 20-peso gift for Chris Cringle, or a 200-peso item for the office exchange-gift.

See you there!

Who wants to receive my newsletter?


A lot of you have been sending me pm's asking about new uploads.
I've decided to start sending out newsletters through email to keep you
girls updated about what's going to come out of my oven soon. I
might also have a few gimmicks like contests, raffles, etc. Para
masaya. hehe.



So who wants to receive newsletters twice a month? Please leave your email address here.

My Christmas Shopping Site up soon


To make your Christmas Shopping easier, I will create 2 new sites that
are extremely user friendly. Watch out! I'll post the link
on Nov 1.



I will also start accepting appointments for meet-ups (delivery of
orders) this November. Meet-up points and schedules to be
announced.  But this will most probably be in Ortigas only.

Trick or treat?


She won best in costume (along with 5 others)! She's a little over a year old raw. Wawa naman, walang kamuwang-muwang. And her pumpkin bag is soooo tiny, the candies won't fit in there!

3 reasons why I have never gone trick or treating:
1. I don't live in Ayala Alabang.
2. Hindi pa uso ang Trick or Treat sa Pilipinas when i was a kid.
3. If there ever was Trick or Treat when I was a kid, my parents wouldn't have let me join because we almost had no neighbors. Meaning, i would have had to walk a certain number of miles to the next house. (Exagg naman ako. hehe).

Since I missed out on what I believe is an essential part of childhood, I resolved to witness this event first hand this year. (Though there was Trick or Treat last year, I missed it because I was still in college. Meaning, I spent the best part of October completing requirements for delinquent subjects. Typical me.)

While kids received loads of candies in their pumpkin shaped loot bags, I too got my hakot of goodies: cool pictures of cute kids in freaky halloween costume!

Presenting, my loot for Halloween 2006...
(click on the photos to see their original size, plus some descriptions).

Start your Christmas shopping today!


61 days 'til Christmas...

and you wanna play Santa.

Not enough moolah?

Not to worry!



Get great gifts for the people on your Nice list without breaking the bank.

Read on to find cheap yet tasteful gifts your loved ones will treasure

for many Christmases to come.




Excellent gift suggestions for Christmas (SAVE):



1. Cellphone charms - Being cheap can be chic. Not enough
moolah to give something special to your barkada? Why not give
them funky and unique cellphone charms! Before you roll your eyes
and dismiss this as a blah gift, check out the Four Seasons pic in the
What's Brewing folder for samples of my charms, or the Mini Havies
folder for cute flipflop cellphone charms. If personalized stuff
are your thing, you may want the alphabet cellphone charms. At
only P30 each for each alphabet cell charm, where else can you find a
cheaper, chic-er, more unique gift?



2. Mini havies earrings - Can't give away the real thing?
Opt for these teeny weeny versions instead! At P70 to P80 each,
these cute flipflop earrings are cheap enough for
"bulk-gift-giving". And your friends/titas/cousins won't find
these anywhere else!





Excellent gift suggestions for Christmas (SPLURGE):



1. Personalized Message Bracelet (P200 for 8 letters) - Ditch the
boring mugs or tasteless tshirt - give your friends a unique trinket
this holiday season. This way, you'll be sure she won't be
getting the same thing from someone else! See this link for
details: http://beadlady.multiply.com/photos/photo/25/3



2. Set of Personalized Coasters - Give mom an unusual gift she won't
find in the malls! I can make image-transfer coasters for
her. (Sold in sets of four). See the October issue of Real
Living magazine for the photo, or click here

Busy Busy Busy

Nothing's coming out of my oven any time soon.  We are working on
our December issue in the office, so it's one hell of a busy month for
me.



I might squeeze in some beading time next weekend.  So watch out for new stuff on October 22, that's a Sunday.



By the way girls, it's a big SALE weekend in the malls!  Galleria,
Megamall, even Sta. Lucia. I'm soooo excited!   Might bump into
you girls while scouring the shops for pretty finds.  See ya!

New stuff this weekend - watch out!

I made over 10 new earrings this week.  They were supposed to be
sold at the Med Week Fair (i think that's what it's called) in UST but
I didn't have time to deliver the items.  So i'll be uploading
them here instead.



So girls, get those pretty fingers ready to type.  My new uploads usually get sold out fast.



Cupcakes by Sonja

Rating:★★★
Category:Restaurants
Cuisine: Desserts
Location:Serendra Retail Area, Fort Bonifacio
I couldn't understand why Ms T was so smitten with these strawberry shortcake cupcakes that we featured in one of our photo shoots for the November ish.

I wasn't there on the shoot (darn!) so I didn't get to taste these treats from Sonja's Bakeshop. Ms T couldn't stop craving for them! My curiosity got the better of me, so I sneaked out of the office with her this afternoon to check out the soft opening of Cupcakes by Sonja in Serendra.

One word: Heavenly!

I especially liked the chocolate cupcakes (forgot what they're called... something like Chocolate Surprise) with rich chocolate frosting. Though if it weren't for the frosting, they wouldn't have been extraordinary.

The catch? They're quite pricey. Each strawberry cupcake goes for P75 each. The chocolate ones are P62. The vanilla cupcakes are P55.

if i still have some stuff leftover, i might hold another online SALE again. watch out. =)

No Multiply at the office...

Hello beloved customers!



You might be wondering why it takes so long for me to respond to your
messages.  Multiply is off-limits in the office - even during
lunch time!



YM doesn't work on my computer either (because I don't have access to meebo).



So for faster transactions, please send me an email at butteredheart@yahoo.com.  Include your multiply ID and cell #.



Thanks!
