#LullysList | Dream with LS

Sometime three years ago, I remember vividly prior to donning the hijab; I wanted to design prints on shawls. It's an extension of expressing my art. I graduated with a Honors in Fine Arts. In school, I was trained in painting and I get to choose electives like Fine Art photography, tactile video making and printmaking. There are many forms of printmaking and my favourite got to be silkscreen printing. I love it so much that I wanted to changed my major but I couldn't. As I did more research, I learnt that it's possible and there are many designers who designs prints and make them into wearable pieces, upholstery, wallpaper etc. My love for Textile Printing grew even more....

#LullysList | 2018 Prints Recap

It's the last #lullyslist for the year and it's time to revisit the prints we produced this year! We started 2018 by announcing our biggest collaboration with designer Naforrer for Commonwealth Fashion Exchange by EcoAge. We designed an evening wear- our interpretation of the Modern Malay Woman.

I enjoy trying new mediums and was so excited to know about water based spray cans. It’s almost similar to diluted acrylic paint and Chinese ink. The best part of the Inkflow shawl got to be the...

#Selbsseries | Highs and Lows of 2017

I find it really hard to blog these days while taking care of Iman. I totally underestimated this whole motherhood thing! I always imagined I could do my housework,  cook, take care of a baby and run a business. Almost impossible, so I now just do what I can, and take one day at a time! Anyway, in today's post, I wanted to highlight the important events of 2017. The bulk of it was being pregnant, but I'm glad I managed to do quite a bit.  End Dec 2016 -  Early Jan 2017 - Our first Umrah together! This was taken on flight to Jeddah.  February - My first CNY celebration with my hubby's family! Didn't know that some old...
