It's the 4th day of Ramadan, how has it been for you? Last Friday I went live on Instagram as part of #stayinwithLS. It was also our first live LS experience where we usually share behind the scenes of how we produce our shawl prints. The theme was to make an artwork which you can have it displayed on your walls or fridge. During the live, some of the viewers were surprised at how a humble household item can be used to create interesting marks! My favourite tool got to be thread attached to chopstick and cotton buds. Just look at that loose fluid marks made by the thread. All you have to do is to cut a piece or...
About one year ago, I made the decision to go for a creative retreat alone to Jogjakarta. I'm not an avid traveler so this is something new for me. I had my worries but yet looking forward to the trip. One memorable incident which questioned me about being street smart was when I was on Gojek- the OG of getting a ride on a bike.

I wanted to know more about this talented man and his thought process while composing our National Anthem. In excitement, I went to the nearest library from...
I'm back on the blog to share with you our thought process with 3 brand new artists for our second cycle of #DreamwithLS. Lully Selb believes in challenging the status quo and expressing our unique individuality. We are always proud to feature our collaborating artists as this campaign brings us closer to our local creative community; no matter what craft the artists specialise in. Through the exposure on our platform and our expertise, they are able to foresee the exciting possibilities of where their craft can go (like on a shawl for a start!) at zero risk as all production costs are absorbed by us. The artists get to earn royalty fees too! However, being a creative myself, it's important...
