Yes, as Francis describes it- sourcing, sourcing, sourcing. Everyday is about sourcing and sourcing. Luckily, I can find most of the things I am looking for on my hometown, Taobao. I have no idea how people could have survived sourcing for wedding before Taobao was even invented!

Talking about taobao, that reminds me of one person who deserves my thanks. My Wangwang account was hacked earlier this year that has caused me to not be able to communicate with Taobao sellers with it anymore! My dear new friend, Grace, is so kind to let me use her account for chatting with the sellers before I 拍 my items with my own account, which function is still (touchwood) unaffected.

Styrofoam circular boards. Styrofoam circular cylinders. Paper lanterns. Photo frames. Fabric donuts. Napkins. Runners. Polymer clay. Candies. Acrylic paint. Toilet paper. Serviettes. Ribbons. Fake flowers. I am completely pleasantly drowned in all these target to-buy items. If you need to talk to me, go onto Wangwang and search for this user called tinkalin. That would be your best bet till Oct 1, 2012.
