The yearly Thai Fest at the Thai Embassy on Orchard is here again from now until 23 May, Sunday. This time they’ve done it up in a more organized set up, with around 80 stalls of jewellery, food, household items, toiletries and clothes in neater sections. Madam pottered over there for a look see, and my conclusion is, if you’re in the vicinity, it’s worth popping in, but not if you’re making a special trip down.
What to buy there? My picks nice glass blown jewelry from Lailan Décor. I like the cocktail rings ($15) in all sorts of colours in a bulbous glass bauble. Good to know, bulk orders are priced at $2.80 for a minimum order of 100 pieces. Beautiful glass pens ($30 per set) from Honey Glass. I tried it and they write very smoothly using ordinary fountain pen ink…This makes a great present ‘cos it’s so unique. Each pen is made from a single handblown glass.
The solid perfume ($20) and luffa embedded soap from another stall called Natural Homemade….
And gorgeous cocktail jewellery by Anada. The pictures didn’t turn out very well I’m afraid, but the rings are absolutely beautiful, including gold plated silver pieces, chunky semi precious stones, and sleek streamlined yet bold pieces from matte gold and silver to pieces with wood, and stones.
Definitely worth dropping in on over the weekend. Bring cash! Until 23 May, Sunday.
