And the best comment is…
Originality is the art of concealing your sources well! Because it is your originality that makes your crafts ‘THE MOST WANTED’ item to grab on and it is what makes me to buy it.. What I like about that Jajakraf’s handmade is lusciously different because it is full of pure & creative.. Of course you can’t usually get them anywhere else but only at JAJAKRAF. I love handmade craft because they will satisfy your eye and your pride and the most important it is ‘ORIGINAL’. The life so short, the craft so long to learn -Trisha Aleesa
Thanks Aween, you really deserved these.
Thank you very much to all the commentators with their very supportive comments. I will take that to motivate myself to do the best in future, I wish.
As promised, here I attached my lil’s princess wearing her new hairclip with matched gown and shoe…
The rest of the flowers had listed in my Tamu.

My layered felt flower
At the first place, I just want to make a hairclip for my lil’ Sufi to match her new gown, which is she’ll be wore on her brother’s nursery’s family day, this Sunday.
Inspired by kek lapis sarawak, I made this layered felt flower and attached it to a pink-grosgrain-ribbon-wrapped alligator hairclip. I’ll update the photo of her wearing this if I remember to take a picture.
But then, I was addicted to it since it quite easy to make, so I made some more.
They are look yummy, huh? Approximately 45mm width and 11mm height. Plan to put it in my Tamu later on, I wish people might like and buy it *lol*. Anybody?…
So, as usual.. since this is a new creation of mine, let’s play a game. By leave a comment on this entry, you will have a chance to have these…
2 pieces of layered felt flowers, no clip attached. For your embellishment purpose; hairclip, brooch, etc…
And also this You & Me hp charm.
Will choose the ‘bestest’ comment and announce it on Tuesday, 23 February 2010.
Happy Sunday!

Felts for Aja & plain grosgrain ribbons
Finally made it, a lot of felt creations for my very loyal customer, Aja. Enjoy the pictures!
Baju Kecil. Now I know she runs her own cyber-cafe business. Great job, business woman!
I personally love this clover hairclip, one of my finest handsewn I guess… I always dare myself to use contra thread so that I can be very careful while sewing. Stitching it’s not only about attach those felt together but it’s more than that. Just see the outcome, that is what exactly I mean.
Hair barrette with her name on it. Love those butterflies very much!
10 different keychains…
Cuppy cake, yummy!…
Mushroom, cute!…
Key… still wondering how to embellish it, idea please?
I like this turtle very much, feel like I don’t want to let it go…
New design, just love it. I used a combination of white and pink threads…
Butterfly, one of my favorite too…
Tulip…
How about this, romantic huh?
Birdie, my version…
Strawberry…
And not least, tada…
…a box full of gorgeous grosgrain ribbons! Just received it yesterday. Will upload them very soon. So, stay tuned ok!

New items…
All these while I was not feeling so crafty, plus the lazy-ness and the busy-ness of my official works. But still I have done something crafty somehow…
My work-in-progress work since last weekend. I planned to make a lots of bees and ladybirds appliques, for the shop actually. Seems so easy but when it comes to huge number, it’s tiring my fingers anyhow. Done with the bees, the ladybirds are waiting.
Also, I’ve been waiting for these items to come…
My dream stitched-edge grosgrain ribbon rolls…
…and a thousand of tiny bells! Isn’t they look gorgeous?
They are now listed in my shop, with some other items too… have a visit to my Tamu.
Coming up next, plain color gr0sgrain ribbon pack. Stay tuned!

Words from the heart
Dear all my valued viewers. I just want to speak it out that I’ve tried very hard to make sure some of my creation is exclusively idealized by me. I made them with all my heart with a big hope that it is profitable for me and my family. But somehow it a bit unpleasant when someone may use my very own idea to their own business advantages. I know I couldn’t stop anyone to copy the idea, but be creative a little bit, improve the idea instead. Beside, I am happy if someone got inspired by my creation. And I don’t mind to share the tutorial with the viewers of some of the product I’ve created, so that you can do it yourself, for your own use, not to resell the idea.
My style is simple, if the customer asked me to make something that well-knownly belongs to someone (the design or idea), I asked the customer to directly order from the designer instead. That’s what I called respect others creation. To all crafters that faced the same situation like me, I know the feeling. Wish you all the best, and may the courage of the idea will never fade away!
Thank you for reading…

This ID card holder goes to..
It was hard for me to choose the best comment as all of them were quite the same from one to another. Okay. tips from me for the next game. write a like-no-other comment because I tend to pick that kind of read. I was about to randomly pick one when finally the last comment of the entry came in;
“Apabila kita buat sesuatu dengan terbaik (macam kita sendiri nak pakai), datang daripada minat dan ikhlas memberikan kualiti yang tinggi, mmg akan jadi sangat cantik dan terkesan di hati sendiri dan orang lain. Tahniah atas pembuatan dan design yang terkini.” -Euphoria.
Thank you very much to all the comments; the good wish as well as the supports regarding my ID card holder. They really mean a lot to me. I want to reply few comments here;
Kak Ani ~ Please jangan give up even if orang ciplak idea kita over and over again.
Siti Fairuz ~ You were the one who inspired me to make this, thank you!
Aneesah ~ Thank you for the komen membina. But don’t worry, it only covered a small part of the card’s edge.
Maya ~ Ribbon ni tak jual punya, 4 meter je per pattern, ciput 
To every commentator ~ Thank you a million!!!

ID card holder
All these times I’ve been thinking about making my-own-style ID card holder. The idea has started when someone emailed me on around September last year, asking for custom made ID card holder from felt. But that time I resisted to make any custom made order especially for new item.
But when I saw this beautiful gorgeous grosgrain ribbons on eBay, I said to my self, instead of copying others creations, this is the time when I should invent a new item under my very own idea. While waiting for the ribbon to come, I’ve been thinking and planing. So, here I present my new invention from felt, ID card holder.
It suits a standard ID card size, and available in 2 types; vertical and horizontal. It’s lined with mounting board to harden the body. Let see some other details…
I used eyelet ring for hole finishing, swivel lobster clasp to attach the strap to the body and also some buttons and felt flower applique for the embellishments.
Lets have some fun here. I want to give away this soft-brown color ID card holder to the best comment on this post. So, all you have to do is just say some words about this new invention of JajaKraf. Will announce the lucky one on Friday.
The rest 4 ID card holders are now listed in my shop, sell at their introductory prices.
Thank you for reading!
