The 3 coloured bears to Olympics

All living beings on earth, regardless of race, languages, region can have a shot at doing what they can do best in life. Just like these 400m Olympians ladies champion of different colours,
can hold a medals in their hands and flashed their triumphs to the world. Being slim built and athletics, we can present them with a cherubic soft toys bears to have a balance in perspective. These bears comes in colour of white, brown and cream. They are fondly known as the footpaws bear, some called them belly-buttons. It is about 22cm in height and does have a cheery deposition. It was commissioned by Gund bear Inc. and apparently have a good run. It does not come cheap from my stock at S$8.00 each for bulk purchases. Stock is running low and this is the last batch I have.

Booting out the lady president... with a waterproof boot.

These are Singapore table tennis woman team with their coach who had earned a silver medal in the Beijing Olympic Games. A medal that was won after the last one 48 years ago,
Singaporeans were celebrating and there was this fiasco from the table tennis association's President, a Miss Lee Lay Wah who was voicing her displeasure over the loss of the man's single match... giving hint that team manager and coach will be responsible. These led to much protests from the Singapore sport fans who see this as a sport spoiler. They called for her resignation of the post. So, this blog capitalised on the fervour and show you this vinyl lady boot, It is stylish and used to boot out any one obstructing perceived injustice. This is waterproof and can wad through flash flood in Singapore. The color is earthly brown with a print of insignia... the color matches well with any mud that one might pick up on a raining day... so that the dirt is not easily seen as it camouflage well. This is a model pair of boot which I have for a photo shoot. It is is size 8 and used once by the model. Any forward looking lady can possess this pair at S$59.00 nett. Grab it before all these Sport fans hijacked it to use it on Ms Lee.

Prepare for your next Olympian task.


A pictures galore here where Olympic medals are given out for excellency in mankind sports. We know the endurance and the discipline required for such super human feats...some of us will never have the physical endowment to achieve... A FACT.
So we provide you a mean test to yourself, to let you redeem your combative and competitive spirit ala carte the Olympian model. You saw the cherubic eyes of this beigge furred pig/swine here. This is an animal favoured by most Chinese for being prosperously well fed... and stress free cos she sleep away her days at mud spa. When we cajoled a Chinese that he is a fat pig, lazy pig... it is not as offensive as it is being taken in a humour sense that the guy is well fed...meaning well to do. And lazy to means he does not have to toil for a living as most men does.
The picture on the right is to give you an idea of the size of my pig to be. At least 15 tube of Pringles chips can be stored in its stomach and 100 pieces of hand phones can be smuggled inside its stomach too. Yes, it is 45cm length and 30cm in height. Quite a big pig by toys standard but a piglet to the real swine out there.
The last picture is to show you the slot on its back which is where you slide in your notes or to throw in your coins.
Your Olympian task is to fill this pig up with coins and notes till it is full
before the London Games in 2012.
Think you can do it ??? Think again... how many times have you ever fill up a small piggy bank from young? How many times you take out the money inside when it is heavy enough to be plundered? So, give yourself a Olympic medal if you could discipline yourself if you can do it with this fat pig.

You have to pay me S$68 to bring this pig home to start your game.

Expect baby boom and balloons soars

The Prime Minister of Singapore may think of the economic multiplying effect when he announce the various incentives for married couples to have babies... It is to replace the population, to maintain the down lines of Singapore ancestry in short.
His concerns also led to the concern of well wishers who shared the joy of the parents of their new born... there will be an estimated increase in numbers as will the case be. So, we cracked our heads to see what we can give as gifts to this new born..
The florists and gift companies had gift hampers lined up and one do not have to worry but just pay by cash or credit cards. There are arrays of goodies for new born available depending on the budget one would like to spend on.
In order not to be left behind by this baby boom, a importer had given me samples of the 2 balloons showed here; it is to be add on to a baby hamper, either it is a boy or it is a girl... you specified it and the new born parents would think that the sender is so thoughtful to be accurate. It is also not costly to be specific. These balloons with a diameter of 20cm costs only S$1.50 each. Florists who take a quantity of 30 pcs can get them at S$1.00 each. You inflate helium air or normal air into it and the balloons remains firm enough even after the mother and child are discharged from hospital. So thanks to the Prime Minister who gave us another economic life line here unknowingly.

Which reality polar bear you needs...?

Reality is what you see of the 2 white polar bears fighting it off with one another instead of the well dressed furry white polar here presenting you with a
stalk of carnation. It is only in the spirit of well wishing and love that we visualise that wild animals are domesticated to be like our faithful dog and cat who cheer us up with their attentive look. Never mind the fact then, as toy makers will be pleased to let us live out our hope with various interesting toys that communicate our love, our well wishes for whoever we intend to bless.
So you see this 18cm white furry bear with a pink bow ribbon tie around her neck, she is made with her paws stitched together, tilted her head to watch at you, so that there is enough spaces to tuck in a stalk of flower, a gift box, a thank you scroll, or whatever your creativity mind can think of. The pinkie nose also gave it a lady touch (rare because it is not a plastic nose piece but one that is stitched with threads, thus a sign of labour productive toy you are getting).
This bear can well sell at S$5.00 each which is a comparable price to bear of this height. For bulk discount above 12 pieces, please consult this blog owner at singaporegiftshop@yahoo.com. He will give you a realistic bear price.

Mini fans to the rescue on stuffy environ

It is a familiar scene under the humid sun, in a crowded gathering where we have to fan ourselves... we make do with the book, the leaflet, and even our bare palm to stoke
the little wind produced to cool our self.
Blamed it on global warming or the tropical that we lived in... Life have to go on under the sun. Inventions made with the electric fan, the air cooler and our air conditioner unit. It is another cycle of heat air being produced due to the machine generating the coolness... a cycle.
To add to these heat, I have a dry cell battery mini fan here who may make life simple for the man here, as the mini electric motor produces wind just enough to cool one's immediate environ, instead of manually fanning oneself. These can be
used to give away for events of mass participation... or you expect the crowd to make use of it at the event itself if it will to be held outdoor. Simple device but practical gift away. It costs S$1.00/each not including the battery. Some organisation even made a transparent sticker with their name on it to be pasted on. In the name of publicity, this fan worked! But... think of the carbon footprints this fan produces...

My cappy bear...


Merry makers does have good entertainment instinct and they can put a beer mug as a hat to their
head. The spirit of fun and good sport can make them an extrovert on show, beside those that are intoxicated with alcohol... I recalled past days when in the name of entertainment that I had beer and spirits too much... the morning after with the heavy head, and vomiting out of bile did really questioned myself why I pay to suffer???
We can switched to more restful deed like looking at these gentle coloured bear with a tortoise colored cap band on their head and a matching scarf. They are sweet little bears that can give away to sweet little girls as a swing along items on their bags, pouches etc. These are about 8cm in height, it costs S$2.50 each and for bulk purchases minimum of 24 pieces, the price is S$1.50. These bears could not be purchased anywhere else as it is customed made and is not a mass circulated article in the soft toy world of bear.

Top up your war chest here...


This is serious matter now as we get into armoury stuff. What the heck have these to do with a gift shop? None and yes...


The year was 1999, I was visiting this leather manufacturer in Bangladesh for the purpose to study the material they used in making their leather shoes. After the formal discussion, he showed me other leather products that their factory made... this gun holster caught my attention. I was brought back to boyhood fantasy of owning a gun holster, a real leather stuff.... Probably most boys remember the toy gun and the plastic holster and belt which you can insert the plastic bullets. I expressed my interest to possess it and he expressed surprise that I need it... probably thinking Singapore is not safe country either. I paid him US$XX for it.
The above picture showed a vinyl made holster pouching a real pistol, my picture here uses a lady mannequin for the job and does look feminine attractive. The reason I need you to see and to share with you is found at the bottom picture where I took a close-up shot and show that this holster is made from kid(young goat) leather and it is meshed woven... which means labour intensive... which means it is handmade... and a piece of art in itself. So, I think there is m
more value to it just being another holster.
As for myself, I do not have a chance to don this for service after I bought it. It will remains so and it is time that I have to part with this nice strapping to those who need it more than I do... There are many gentleman and hungo here who may be in the front line fighting crimes, terror-lipsome, or engage in paintball warfare. They may need it more than I do and at least I should let this holster served its function rather than to beautifying the mannequin...
If anyone out there is interested in this kid leather woven pistol holster which have yet to be battle proven. Email me and get ready to dispense S$140.00 for this art piece.

Rainbow for bears and marriage


These are very agile bears that evoke much feelings and actions and pensive mood as you can see in this poised shot. They are one of my favourite bear as it departed from the normal color of brown, beige, cream and white. These are made from Korean fabric and is soft, cuddly, the colors are a large pastel of pink with patches of yellow and white over. They also don a pinkish ribbon around their neck, They are flexible and thus one can manipulate them to various positions of good choice. Make a good piece to cheer up an office cubicle. It stands about 6 inches in length, and it is sold for S$5.00 only. Bulk discount are available for 24 pieces and above. Check with the owner who named them as Rainbow Bear.
Rainbow did the Prime Minister made in his national day speech to encourage Singaporeans to find their love, get married and have baby. Is there any other countries in the world that leader exalt up such subjects for the country's future sake. I believe there are but we do not seem to hear how these countries are promoting theirs. Can any readers tell and share with us?
Another great move was also the pre-emptive move to allow greater freedom of podcast, life video on political subjects, demonstration allowed at Speaker Corner. It is to prepare for the next election, to run in the situation now, to practise it for both government and opposition, to tune in the population so that when comes election years, Singaporeans become non-partisan to it; as they already seen and partake some kind of such stuff so that people will not be so climatic then.
Remember the years when they first allowed life telecasts of parliament debates responding to population's desire for blood on the arena... soon the interest faded out. The replay will be similar in this instance where government does know that pragmatic Singaporeans will soon find better entertainment than having live demonstration. It will interest only the interested and the rest of the electorate will still stick to basic platform for safe governing.
