Someone asked me what the temple on the front of our Parables of Jesus ang pao was.
And I realised I didn’t know how the answer.

So I went to ask my husband, who is the artist behind the illustration.

He told me his reference was inspired by the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, a place historically used to worship the “God of the Highest Heaven” (皇天上帝 huang tian shang di). (上帝 or shang di are the characters used for “God” in many Chinese versions of the Bible.)

The building has three layers, which mirror the three sections of the Tabernacle or Temple in the Bible.

And right at the staircase sits the tax collector from Jesus’ last parable, not boasting, not performing, just aware of his need for mercy.

Because Jesus reminds us that it’s not the self-righteous posture that is justified before God, but the humble, repentant heart.

That’s a little story behind the design of our new "Parables of Jesus" ang pao.

Would you like to know more about the parables of Jesus? Comment "Parables" and I'll send you the link to learn about all 40 parables illustrated on this year's ang pao design.

What a way to start this Chinese New Year season 🙌

Last December, a teacher stopped by our booth at the Christmas market to get a Life of Jesus poster. She shared that she hoped to put it up in their student activity centre.

We ended up having a simple, unplanned conversation, and she told me she works in an international school with many Chinese students. She also shared how, every Chinese New Year, the school blesses their students with an ang pao and a blessing.

As she shared, I felt this quiet nudge in my heart to bless the students with our "Finding Jesus" ang paos. When she later mentioned it was for the whole school, we didn’t hesitate. We immediately said yes.

These students are from overseas, away from family. And having studied overseas myself, I know how Chinese New Year can feel especially lonely when everyone else is with their loved ones. I really loved that our "Finding Jesus" ang paos could be a small blessing in that season.

Seeing the children trying to spot Jesus in the designs, and knowing that seeds have been sown into their little hearts feels really special and meaningful.

All glory to God 🙌 We’re just thankful to be part of what He’s doing, in ways we could never plan. 🥹🤗

Thank you St Francis Methodist School International for blessing the students with our Ang paos and for letting us be a little part of the CNY celebrations ☺️🤗

I got way too excited when I spotted our pastor wearing our "Finding Jesus" T-shirt 😂

We only launched these tees a few weeks ago, and this was the very first time I saw someone wearing one. Such a small moment, but it meant so much to me. It reminded me why we created this, not to be loud or flashy, but to gently point hearts back to Jesus in everyday life.

The "Finding Jesus" T-shirt was made to be simple, wearable, and hopefully a quiet conversation starter when the time is right.

Feeling really thankful for this moment, and for everyone who has supported us and what we create 🤗

If you're wearing yours for CNY, please tag us. We'd love to see ☺️

Sometimes people ask, “Why are there so many things on this ang pao?” or “What’s the QR code for?”

Our heart has always been simple, we want people to know the Word of God and to be directed back to it.

Chinese New Year meals can get busy. You may not get to share everything about Jesus across the table. So we added something that continues the conversation quietly.

Behind each “Finding Jesus” ang pao is a QR code. When you scan it, it brings you to our website where you can read the stories behind every event illustrated on the design. And when you click on each picture, it leads you directly to the Bible verse.

We even made it available in Chinese.

So whether someone is curious, searching, or just slowly exploring, they can read at their own pace. It’s also beautiful for personal Bible study.

It’s not “too many things.”
It’s layers because God’s Word has depth.

If you’ve gotten our “Finding Jesus” ang paos for this CNY, thank you. We pray they will be seeds sown and a great blessing to those who receive them 🙌🤗

20 years ago, I stepped into a Christian Fellowship for the very first time. I wasn’t a Christian then. I was just there because my colleague invited me.

When we broke into small groups to pray, someone prayed over me and mentioned the Parable of the Lost Sheep. I had never really heard that story before. But as they prayed, I suddenly started crying.

I didn’t fully understand what was happening, but deep in my heart I felt something so real like a love that was searching, reaching, and coming straight for me.

Jesus tells the story of a shepherd who leaves ninety-nine sheep to search for the one that has wandered off. In this simple but powerful picture, Jesus reveals the Father’s heart. He notices, He pursues, and He rejoices over every person who feels lost or forgotten. No one is insignificant to God, and His desire is that every single one of His children is brought safely home.

Who would leave 99 behind just to come and find one?

Back then, I didn’t think I was someone worth finding. I thought I was just another face in the crowd. But that moment planted something in my heart — the quiet, overwhelming realization that maybe I wasn’t forgotten after all.

The Parable of the Lost Sheep isn’t just a nice story. It’s the heart of the Father. A God who sees the one. A God who goes after the one. A God who doesn’t give up on the one. His heart for a single person is so great that He would leave His flock to find that one. No matter where we are, or how far we feel, Jesus’ love for us is stronger and He never stops seeking until we are found.

Maybe you feel like that sometimes too — unseen, unworthy, overlooked. But the truth is, God knows each one of us by name. And He comes for each and every one of us.

This Chinese New Year, as you share this parable with someone God brings into your path, I pray they won’t just hear a story but they will feel the Father’s heart for them. The same heart that came for me all those years ago 🤗

I HAD to try this trend 🤭😂

One of the best things about being a business owner is meeting other business owners who are creative, so passionate about their craft, and with whom conversations just flow.

Sam, the owner of @shepha.co has seen me since the very beginning of ChezHemdi — at pop-ups when we were just starting out. We reconnected some time back to collaborate on our baby gift sets, and I’m always so thankful for how God weaves these friendships over the years.

Today, we almost didn’t make it because the boys were in a crazy mood 🙈 But we decided to go anyway — partly for them to learn about embroidery, and partly because I knew I needed the conversation just as much.

It was the little one’s first time seeing embroidery (big brother has been before), and they had so much fun. Sam kept entertaining them with new tricks, patiently answering their questions.

So thankful for friendships like this — the kind where you talk about business, life, faith, struggles… and leave feeling lighter.

Sometimes it’s not just about the craft. It’s about the people God places along the way. 🤗

Have you tried black lentils in the Mauritian style? It's something that I cook often because it's super easy 🤭 and super fast to get dinner ready in under 30 minutes.

I don't quite enjoy spending time in the kitchen 🙈 so any recipes that are quick and one pot is something I'd go for.

My mum would probably scold me for missing out on the last step called "fricasser" in French but we like it this way and it always reminds me of home.

Let me know if you'll try it 🤗☺️

I was pleasantly surprised to see her come back, this time with a bottle of orange juice. What she shared next really touched my heart. She had just gotten married and this was her very first time giving ang paos, and she was feeling really anxious about Chinese New Year.

When she saw our ang paos, the design and the meaning behind them, she said she felt better and a little more prepared and ready to give out ang paos. It was more than just giving out ang paos but she could also share Jesus to her extended family.

I shared with her my own experience of my first CNY after getting married and told her I could totally understand how she was feeling, all the expectations and unknowns can feel overwhelming.

I asked if I could pray for her, and she was really touched. It became such a precious moment for both of us, right there at the booth. Before we continued chatting, I gave her a hug — just a quiet reminder that she wasn’t alone.

We chatted a little more about noticing God in the small things this CNY and how she might be amazed by what God can do through her.

These are the moments I treasure most.
Unhurried conversations, unexpected kindness, and those quiet God encounters that happen right in the middle of a pop-up 🤗🙌

If this CNY feels a little overwhelming for you, the visiting, the giving, the expectations etc, I hope you know you don’t have to have it all figured out. Slow down enough to notice God in the small things. You might just be amazed by what God can do through you this season. 🤗🙏

I started the day feeling anxious & defeated, but I decided to be thankful for the small things. And God sent people — people who encouraged me and stopped by our booth to chat and say hi.

Two young ones came by and we started talking. I shared about our Ang Pao design and the story behind it. Then they asked if they could pray for me. It really caught me by surprise, in a good way. The prayer was meaningful and so encouraging, and I was glad I also got to also pray for them afterwards.

Even though the day ended with rain and we had to close shop earlier than planned, it didn’t dampen my spirit. I was already so filled with joy from the encouragement and the conversations throughout the day. Thank you to everyone who dropped by and all your words of encouragement 🤗😍

If this is you, feeling anxious and maybe even defeated, I want you to know this: God sees you. He knows you. He cares about you. And He sends people to lift you up.

Let’s choose to be grateful for the little glimpses of His goodness. 🤗🙌

I promise to do this better in 2026! 😅
We launched a new collection of Dino postcards at Public Garden and somehow forgot to share about it here. So today, I wanted to slow down and finally tell you the heart behind these five designs.

As we step into a new year, it’s normal to feel a mix of hope and uncertainty. None of us really knows what lies ahead. This collection was created as a gentle reminder that no matter the season, we are never alone. One card reminds us that even in tough times, God is with us. He goes before us and never leaves our side. Another invites us to simply abide in Him, fixing our eyes on Jesus and allowing Him to carry the burdens that feel too heavy for us to bear. There’s also a reminder that even when life feels messy or confusing, God is still molding and shaping us according to His perfect plan, transforming us little by little from glory to glory.

The collection continues with a quiet encouragement to stand firm on Jesus, the Rock of our salvation, letting His Word be the steady foundation beneath our feet when everything else feels shaky. And finally, a reminder for the moments when the path ahead feels unclear: God is still guiding each step, faithfully carrying the good work He has begun in us toward completion.

As you step into this new year, our hope is that these postcards would be gentle companions along the way, small reminders to pause, to breathe, to look up, and to trust again. Whatever this year holds, may you be reminded that God is with you, forming you, carrying you, grounding you, and leading you forward. One step at a time, with hope, with peace, and with confidence that He is already at work in what’s ahead 🙌🤗

The collection is available online at ChezHemdi.com

Nobody talks about how hard it is to go from a big event with so many people to talk to, to the very next day being in bed, feeling sick, and doing spelling with your child.

But such is life in this season.

It would be easy to feel frustrated. Easy to feel FOMO. Especially when opportunities come and we have to decline them.

But last year, God spoke to me about “Embrace your season” of motherhood and business.

I thought I already knew my season, to look after my firstborn now that he is in primary school but I realised it’s another thing to truly embrace it.

Because embracing it sometimes means choosing to stay home, choosing to rest, choosing your family, and choosing obedience, even when it feels like you’re not doing enough or not pushing the business as hard as you “should.”

There are moments I wonder if I’m lagging behind. If I’m missing out. If I’m letting opportunities slip away.

But then I remember what God spoke to me, that He will take care of me, that I can look at the lilies, how they grow: they do not labor or spin, yet even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these, and that the Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.

It is easier to strive than to trust His provision. Easier to say yes to everything than to believe He knows exactly what I need in this season.

So if you’re in a season where it feels like you’ve lost opportunities because of where God has placed you right now, I want to encourage you:

The Lord is your Shepherd. He will take care of you. You are not behind. You are not forgotten. He sees every small step you take and every act of faithfulness in this season. Trust that He is leading you exactly where you need to be, and that what is meant for you will not pass you by.

Nobody talks about how hard it is to go from a big event with so many people to talk to, to the very next day being in bed, feeling sick, and doing spelling with your child.

But such is life in this season.

It would be easy to feel frustrated. Easy to feel FOMO. Especially when opportunities come and we have to decline them.

But last year, God spoke to me about “Embrace your season” of motherhood and business.

I thought I already knew my season, to look after my firstborn now that he is in primary school but I realised it’s another thing to truly embrace it.

Because embracing it sometimes means choosing to stay home, choosing to rest, choosing your family, and choosing obedience, even when it feels like you’re not doing enough or not pushing the business as hard as you “should.”

After a whole weekend at Public Garden, our Lalamove driver asked us, “I see you go so many times, can you even make money?” 🤭🤪

Honestly, it would’ve been so easy to get upset or feel discouraged or be offended after working so hard. But we just burst out laughing because the truth is, our hearts have always been to reach out to people.

Yes, this is our business. Yes, we hope to make enough to keep going. But deeper than that, we’re here to connect, to encourage, and to plant little seeds of hope through what we create.

Every conversation, every shared story, every person who paused at our booth, that’s why we keep showing up. Some people measure success in dollars, we measure it in lives touched and hearts encouraged. 🤗

A huge thank you to everyone who dropped by @publicgarden over the weekend to check out our newly launched "Finding Jesus" T-shirts, ang paos, and other goodies or even just to say hi. Your support, smiles, and conversations make all the hard work worth it!

So we’ll keep going out for pop-ups because we believe we’re meant to be out there, trusting that God is moving in quiet ways beyond what we can see. 🙌🤗

Thank you @publicgarden for having us at the Happy New Year edition ☺️🤗 It was a wonderful way to start the new year and have our first pop-up of 2026

I decided to do a try-on for our "Finding Jesus" t-shirts since so many of you asked for one ☺️ Hope this helps!

It's my first time doing a try-on 🤪🤭 There were so many bloopers but I must admit it's quite fun ☺️

Last one is my mum look 😂 But honestly, I prefer the S or M size for myself ☺️ My husband fits the L size but it's a tight fit for him.

Our "Finding Jesus" t-shirts will be launching this weekend @publicgarden at MBS. See you 🤗

It was a perfect celebration full of surprises 🤗😍 Thank you for all the birthday wishes, words of love & encouragement as well as your prayers 🤗

My husband surprised me with a lovely bouquet from @itsprettywild and a unique lunch at an Argentinian restaurant @firerestaurant.sg @1atico.sg ☺️ We loved the food so much and the birthday cake was a lovely surprise 🤗

After a simple birthday song, the boys surprised me by suddenly wanting to pray a special birthday blessing. They prayed for me, for ChezHemdi, the people God will bring in our lives and my parents...everything that's so dear to me 🥹🤗 Couldn't have asked for a better way to spend this special day ☺️🙌

This year, as I celebrate my birthday, I can’t help but look back and think about the biggest thing that happened last year. And it wasn’t an achievement, a milestone, or something I could check off a list. The biggest gift wasn’t something I received. It was the people God brought across my path.

From old friends I hadn’t seen in over a decade, to family-like friends I only catch once a year, to customers who became encouragers, and even people I had worked with years ago — every encounter, every conversation, every quiet act of kindness reminded me of how rich life really is. There were full-circle moments that filled my heart with gratitude, moments of reconnection and reconciliation, and moments where I saw God’s faithfulness woven through ordinary days in extraordinary ways.

As I think about birthdays, I realize they’re not just about growing older. They’re a celebration of life itself — the people who walk beside us, the stories we share, and the ways God uses others to remind us of His love, grace, and faithfulness. Life is made meaningful because of the hearts that intersect with ours, the smiles, the prayers, the encouragement, and even the small gestures that now feel so big.

So today, I’m not just celebrating another year of life. I’m celebrating the people God has placed in it — old friends, new faces, and every little moment that became a treasured memory. Many are not featured here, but you are treasured. Thank you to everyone who made last year unforgettable. You are the reason life is worth celebrating, and I can’t wait to see how God continues to weave our stories together in the year ahead.

20 years ago, I stepped into a Christian Fellowship for the very first time. I wasn’t a Christian then. I was just there because my colleague invited me.

When we broke into small groups to pray, someone prayed over me and mentioned the Parable of the Lost Sheep. I had never really heard that story before. But as they prayed, I suddenly started crying.

I didn’t fully understand what was happening, but deep in my heart I felt something so real like a love that was searching, reaching, and coming straight for me.

Jesus tells the story of a shepherd who leaves ninety-nine sheep to search for the one that has wandered off. In this simple but powerful picture, Jesus reveals the Father’s heart. He notices, He pursues, and He rejoices over every person who feels lost or forgotten. No one is insignificant to God, and His desire is that every single one of His children is brought safely home.

Who would leave 99 behind just to come and find one?

Back then, I didn’t think I was someone worth finding. I thought I was just another face in the crowd. But that moment planted something in my heart — the quiet, overwhelming realization that maybe I wasn’t forgotten after all.

The Parable of the Lost Sheep isn’t just a nice story. It’s the heart of the Father. A God who sees the one. A God who goes after the one. A God who doesn’t give up on the one. His heart for a single person is so great that He would leave His flock to find that one. No matter where we are, or how far we feel, Jesus’ love for us is stronger and He never stops seeking until we are found.

Maybe you feel like that sometimes too — unseen, unworthy, overlooked. But the truth is, God knows each one of us by name. And He comes for each and every one of us.

This Chinese New Year, as you share this parable with someone God brings into your path, I pray they won’t just hear a story but they will feel the Father’s heart for them. The same heart that came for me all those years ago 🤗

Last year, I faced a task I didn’t want to do, translating the 80 life events of Jesus on our angbaos into Chinese. It felt too hard and too much. But God finally convicted me. On CNY Eve, I sat down and spent nearly six hours translating before rushing to reunion dinner. 🙈 At the time, I had no idea that it would lead to this.

A few friends from church were volunteering at a Chinese New Year dinner organized by YWAM SG for a group of migrant workers from China. Each worker received our Life of Jesus angbaos, along with Sheng Siong vouchers inside. They were drawn to the design and even scanned the QR code on the back to learn more. 🤯 It finally made sense why I had to do the translation. And I'm so glad I did it!

I’m just in awe of how God works—how He sees His people, loves them, and moves through the smallest acts of obedience.

This year, I’m starting early. I’m slowly translating each of the 40 parables of Jesus, praying, trusting that His greatest teaching—love one another—will reach hearts in ways I can’t see yet. And just like last year, I’m learning to show up faithfully, even when I can’t predict the outcome.

Because God is faithful, I can step into this work in faith, trusting He will move again—through our ang paos, through stories, and through the smallest acts of obedience. 🤗🙌

Thank you for being part of this journey of planting seeds of His Word through our ang paos, one story at a time. 😍🤗

I never thought that dressing up would mean so much to me now years ago when I was still in the corporate. Back then, having to dress up every day was a joy but also a chore 😂

But nowadays, being a SAHM and WFH business owner, I only get to dress up when I go to church on the weekends and when I have pop-ups. I've started to really enjoy putting together different outfits that are quick and simple but yet make me feel like myself again 🤗☺️

Hope you like this outfit

We hear this a lot:
“There’s so much hidden meaning inside your ang pao!” and it makes us so happy, because we designed them with little stories waiting to be discovered.

Every element was drawn with intention.
We wanted these designs to spark conversations, moments where you pause, look closer, and ask,
“Why is this here?”

Jesus often taught through parables, simple stories that invited people to look closer and discover deeper truths.

In Matthew 13:52, Jesus says the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out old treasures and new treasures from his storeroom. The parable is talking to teachers of the Word.

And here’s where the parable comes alive in the design:
When you spot the servant holding the Ark of the Covenant, you’re seeing the old treasures — God’s presence, promises, and faithfulness revealed throughout the Old Testament.

And the servant holding the Cross points to the new treasures — Jesus, the fulfilment of God’s promises.

Throughout the Old Testament, we see foreshadowings of His ministry,
and when Jesus came, He revealed how God’s promises and prophecies were always pointing to the new covenant found in Him.

That’s a little story behind the design of our new “Parables of Jesus” ang pao.

Weekends are usually time spent together as a family doing fun things. When @handsofdpotter invited us over for a time of arts & crafts, the boys were really excited ☺️

They had so much fun working on their crafts and my firstborn was really happy to find books around to read while waiting for the clay & paint to dry 😂🤭 They were so comfortable there that I could sneak out for @toastboxsg just upstairs 😍

Thank you @handsofdpotter for having us 🤗

P:S Can you guess what they made? 😂 I got a shock when I came back to find what they were making 🤭

I don’t usually jump on trends, so when I kept seeing everyone posting about their 2016, it honestly took me a while to decide if I should do it too. Something kept nudging me to go back and look at the pictures.

And I’m so glad I did ☺️

Because looking back at 2016, I realise just how instrumental that year was—the year of saying yes, the year of firsts, the year of learning, growing, and sowing seeds. At the time, I had no idea it was the beginning of something greater, that seeds were already being sown long before I knew what they would grow into.

I also thought this would be a good moment to introduce myself and welcome our newer followers by taking you down memory lane. A little glimpse into why we do what we do, and how God has gently and faithfully brought us through different seasons since the very beginning to where we are today.

And if you’ve been here since then—WOWWW. Truly, thank you 🙏🏼. Thank you for sticking around, for journeying with us through the years, the changes, the pauses, the pivots, and the many seasons in between. 🤗

Looking back, every small step, every “first,” every yes was part of God’s bigger plan. And if there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s that it doesn’t have to be perfect, you just have to start. Keep showing up, keep saying yes to what you’re passionate about, and trust that beautiful things are growing, even in the quiet moments 🤗 Hope this blesses you today!

Someone asked me what the temple on the front of our Parables of Jesus ang pao was.
And I realised I didn’t know how the answer.

So I went to ask my husband, who is the artist behind the illustration.

He told me his reference was inspired by the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, a place historically used to worship the “God of the Highest Heaven” (皇天上帝 huang tian shang di). (上帝 or shang di are the characters used for “God” in many Chinese versions of the Bible.)

The building has three layers, which mirror the three sections of the Tabernacle or Temple in the Bible.

And right at the staircase sits the tax collector from Jesus’ last parable, not boasting, not performing, just aware of his need for mercy.

Because Jesus reminds us that it’s not the self-righteous posture that is justified before God, but the humble, repentant heart.

That’s a little story behind the design of our new "Parables of Jesus" ang pao.

It's been a while since I shared a cooking video. I'm not the most confident at cooking 🙈 but it's during the slow seasons (aka no pop-ups) when I get to experiment and try new recipes. Also, the boys have been complaining that we eat the same thing everyday 🤪

Just 2 days ago, I found the viral no-water chicken soup recipe from @dearmama.char and I've already cooked it twice because it's so easy and so tasty 🤭 And the best part, the boys love it so much 😍

Since it's also the perfect weather for soups, I wanted to experiment and try it AGAIN but with fish instead. Although, I had a full afternoon running errands today, I still managed to cook and the little one wanted to join in.

If you're looking for a simple one-pot meal, this is perfect 🤗 Let me know if you've tried it or are going to.

It's been a while since I shared a cooking video. I'm not the most confident at cooking 🙈 but it's during the slow seasons (aka no pop-ups) when I get to experiment and try new recipes. Also, the boys have been complaining that we eat the same thing everyday 🤪

When God asked me to embrace both motherhood and business, I didn’t realise how much I had separated the two. I definitely didn’t imagine how hard it would be either not just physically, but emotionally. The hardest part was mom-guilt and the fear of what people would think.

Before releasing my pop-up dates, I was so worried. But deep down, I knew exactly why God was asking us to do this. So I held on to His leading.

Mom-guilt crept in during a week-long pop-up at Guoco. It was the first time I brought my firstborn along for a whole day and whole week, and I worried he’d be bored, tired, or overwhelmed.

Two days later, a customer-turned-friend dropped by. I was shocked to see her because I thought she was away. When she said that in the morning she had a word from God for me and came down just to tell me, I was even more shocked. The first thing she said was, “The Lord wanted to assure you not to feel mom-guilt.” I remember thinking, Oh wow… even though I didn’t tell anyone about it, God knew. She then shared a vision of a beanstalk, rooted in the ground, reaching all the way to the heavens and how the things my son was learning by being there with me, watching faith and obedience being lived out, were being planted deep within him in ways that only experience can.

Looking back at that week, I may not fully understand everything he learnt, but I could see that something was happening quietly within him. In the small moments - helping without being asked, choosing to try again instead of giving up, finding ways to be creative when he was bored, and gathering the courage to welcome people who walked into our shop, I saw him growing.

And I’ve learnt too that God knows what’s on our hearts, He cares for me and my family, there’s no need to compare, and that motherhood and business can be one.

So maybe if you’re feeling a little anxious about what the new year will bring, I hope this encourages you that the Lord knows and He cares for you and your family too. Cast your cares unto Him. He is your shepherd. 🤗

For more than 10 years, we worked and served faithfully on the creative team in church. That was our world, where purpose felt clear and familiar. Then God led us outside what we knew, and suddenly we felt like fish out of water, trying to find purpose again, trying to find our footing on unfamiliar ground. It would have been easier to go back, to return to what felt safe, but deep down we knew God was leading us forward.

The beginning of ChezHemdi was painful. We felt lost and unsure, and there were real financial struggles that made us question ourselves more than once. Some days were really hard. Still, we trusted God and chose to take it one step at a time, believing that obedience mattered even when clarity hadn’t fully come yet.

The heart of ChezHemdi has always been simple: "We are blessed to be a blessing." And we knew God gave us the gift of design to reach His people. Three years ago, as we talked about how we wanted people to bless those around them during CNY, our “Finding Jesus” ang pao was born.

Honestly, we didn’t think anyone would actually purchase them. But the response encouraged us more than we can put into words. These ang paos didn’t just help our business, they changed us. They gave us new fire and a renewed sense of purpose. What we thought would only be seasonal became something God used all year round, a simple way to share Jesus and sow seeds through the gifts He has given us.

God reminded us that these are seeds to be sown. And our prayer is that we’ll continue sowing together, trusting Him for a great harvest. 🤗🙌

Today we went to watch David (the animated movie) and I’m so glad we did that on the very first day of the new year. So many reminders of God being with us, perfect as we step into the new year 🤗 Hope you get to catch it if you can.

I pray that this year, you will know God as your Shepherd, the One who guides and protects you, who goes before you, who anoints, leads, and never forsakes you.

May you have the courage to trust Him even when the path feels uncertain, the faith to face giants knowing you don’t stand alone,
and the humility to follow His voice above all others.

Follow the Light. The same God who was with David is with you.

Happy New Year from our family to yours 🤗

As I took time to reflect on how this year turned out, it was very tempting to do a highlights video like we usually do to showcase the achievements and the “good parts.”

But the Lord gently challenged me not to.

This year started with many challenges on all fronts. So many transitions we had to learn how to sit with and walk through. Yet again and again, through both the small and big things, the Lord showed me how deeply He cares for me and my family, how He brings people into our midst at just the right time.

We are truly thankful and grateful for everyone, and for everything we’ve walked through this year, knowing just how faithful the Lord has been.

Thank you for coming alongside us. And my prayer for you is this — that you would choose to praise Him for this year, no matter how it turned out. Because He loves you, and He cares for you too. 🙌🤗

“Am I seeing what I’m seeing?”

That was her first thought when she spotted our ang pao designs at Public Garden, Christian-inspired artworks right in the middle of all the vendors. It sparked her curiosity to come by and find out more.

She shared how much she loved the ang paos, her friend got her an A3 poster, and what really encouraged me was that she came back again just to chat.

As we talked, I shared about someone’s mum, a pre-believer, who was drawn to one of our posters and wanted to know more. As I shared, she teared and told me she’s the only Christian in her family, believing and praying for them to know Jesus too.

We prayed for each other right there. And that was the best way to spend the day, encouraging one another on this journey of faith, trusting that God is gently at work, one small moment at a time 🤗

I can’t believe this little one is 5.

When I was pregnant with him, I sensed that a season was changing. I felt this quiet nudge to slow down, to be more present with my two little ones.

Looking back at the last few years, I’m so glad I made that decision. I’ve had the joy of watching him grow into this cute little one, a sweet boy who is fearless, yet thoughtful and wise. Still a baby at times, but already so ready to protect and stand up for those he loves.

You are so deeply loved, my dear one, and truly a gift from God. 💕😍🤗

P:S Thank you to all the parents of his close friends for making his dream playdate come true on his actual birthday 🤗☺️

What he said made me tear and he had no idea why.

A young couple dropped by our booth to get a few things, and we started chatting.
About our artworks. About life. About 2025. About how God has provided, even through the smallest things.

They were so kind and so encouraging, sharing what they felt when they saw our pieces, taking time to really see and listen.

Then he said something so casually.
“It feels like I came to your house,” he shared like it felt warm, welcoming, and easy to just be here.

My eyes welled up instantly.
He had no idea why.

ChezHemdi literally means “At Hemdi’s house.” A space we hoped would feel safe, familiar, and full of heart where people would be blessed.

In that moment, it felt like such a gentle reminder of why we’re doing this, and how God often affirms us in the most unexpected ways.

Since it was her birthday yesterday, I gifted her one of our journals, for all that God is going to do through them, in ways they may not see yet.

I’m so, so grateful for every person God sends to our little shop. For every word of encouragement shared with us. And for this couple who chose to stop, to linger, to take time to talk and encourage me.

And later, they came back and wrote me a card, one I’ll treasure deeply. Thank you so much 🥹🤗

She almost didn’t make it before we closed tonight, but she came anyway hoping, trying her luck.

She walked to our shop, browsed quietly, and when we spoke, she shared that she wanted to encourage a young mum she had recently met.

This mum was going through a tough season, yet had just reached a milestone in her business, and she wanted to bless her with something meaningful.

I was so touched by her thoughtfulness. As she was sharing her heart, I felt led to bless her friend with the Miracles of Jesus poster.

I explained the poster to her and shared the meaning behind it, how each miracle tells a story of hope, provision, healing, and faith.

I told her that as her friend invites Jesus into her business, I believe she will see many miracles unfold in ways she may not expect.

She smiled and said it would be such a beautiful blessing for her friend.

And in that moment, I was reminded again how God sends people to encourage one another, sometimes in the most unexpected ways.

So grateful that we get to be a small part of what God is already doing, weaving encouragement and hope into someone’s journey 🤗

It’s always nice to hear, “I’m back for more.”

She first found us at Christmas in Queenstown and brought home our "Finding Jesus" ang paos. This time, she returned because her colleagues had seen them and wanted some too.

But what stayed with me most was this. She shared that one colleague said she plans to go to Bible school after she retires. So she chose our Miracles of Jesus journal for her as a gift, for that next stage of life.

Moments like this remind me that sometimes a simple gift can hold so much meaning, marking a transition, honouring a calling, and pointing hearts gently back to Him 🤗

It was such a joy meeting so many of you last weekend at Public Garden 🤗

Thank you for queueing, braving the crowd, and stopping by our booth. Thank you for listening as we shared the heart behind our ang pao designs, and for every kind word of encouragement! They truly meant more than you know 🥹

And to our friends who surprised us 🤪🙈 thank you. You made our hearts so full.

But the greatest joy was this, watching so many of you pause, look closely, try to find Jesus on our ang paos and ppsters and even go through the stories together 🤗

We honestly never imagined that something inspired by our kids’ “I spy with my little eye” books would lead to conversations about Jesus. But there it was, unfolding right in front of us, in the middle of the crowd, in the most natural and joyful way ☺️

It reminded us that when we simply show up with what’s in our hands and on our hearts, God can do far more than we expect. And we’re just really grateful we get to witness it. 🤗

I remember wondering if people would skip our shop because of the Jesus poster.

Three years ago, when we had our ang paos for the first time at Public Garden, I was honestly quite worried about putting up this big red poster. I kept thinking people might walk past just because it says “Jesus”.

I shared this with my husband, and he reminded me that we are not ashamed of the gospel.

And over the years, so many people have told us, “I was actually attracted by this poster and walked over.” 😱

This year, we put it up even higher. And as people walked past, it was really encouraging to hear some say, “Oh, this is the Christian shop.”

But there were also others who mocked, who made unpleasant comments and I won’t lie, it did hurt 😔

I'm reminded of what the Bible says, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” So we keep finding courage to shine for Jesus, wherever He leads us.

A lot of people have asked us how we’re able to do so many pop-ups, sometimes even back to back.

When God whispered to our hearts to put these ang paos into as many hands as possible, we knew these are seeds to be sown. So we keep walking in obedience, only by the grace of God while believing for a great harvest.

And I think that’s what obedience often looks like. Not loud or confident or fully certain. Just choosing to say yes even when you're not sure.

To keep showing up.
To keep sowing the seeds you’ve been entrusted with.
Trusting that God sees every small act of faith, even the ones that feel unseen.

And that when He leads you somewhere, even into uncomfortable places, He also gives the grace to stand there. And that sometimes, the smallest yes is enough for Him to do far more than we could ever imagine. And He equips us for every place He calls us to shine.

Trusting that God sees every small act of faith, even the ones that feel unseen.

And that when He leads you somewhere, even into uncomfortable places, He also gives the grace to stand there. And that sometimes, the smallest yes is enough for Him to do far more than we could ever imagine.

And He equips us for every place He calls us to shine. 🤗🙌

I remember wondering if people would skip our shop because of the Jesus poster.

Three years ago, when we had our ang paos for the first time at Public Garden, I was honestly quite worried about putting up this big red poster. I kept thinking people might walk past just because it says “Jesus”.

I shared this with my husband, and he reminded me that we are not ashamed of the gospel.

And over the years, so many people have told us, “I was actually attracted by this poster and walked over.” 😱

This year, we put it up even higher. And as people walked past, it was really encouraging to hear some say, “Oh, this is the Christian shop.”

But there were also others who mocked, who made unpleasant comments and I won’t lie, it did hurt 😔

I'm reminded of what the Bible says, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” So we keep finding courage to shine for Jesus, wherever He leads us.

A lot of people have asked us how we’re able to do so many pop-ups, sometimes even back to back.

When God whispered to our hearts to put these ang paos into as many hands as possible, we knew these are seeds to be sown. So we keep walking in obedience, only by the grace of God while believing for a great harvest.

And I think that’s what obedience often looks like. Not loud or confident or fully certain. Just choosing to say yes even when you're not sure.

We didn’t know if she’d like it so we spent a few days thinking about what we should make.

We just wanted something that could show our gratitude for being part of The Christmas Atelier again this year, truly a dream come true for us.

But this year felt different. We reconnected with long-lost friends, heard testimonies that moved us, and had so many little God moments that reminded us He’s always weaving things together.

All of that somehow led us to this artwork which we painted in the colours of this year’s theme, and we drew the heart of everyone coming together to help and care for one another.

When Lelian said she liked it, wah, our hearts melted. 🥹😄 It was my fan girl moment. 🤭 I really admire her for her heart for this community, for her creativity and her craft in everything she puts her heart and hands to.

This whole event really felt like a place where people gather to share the joy and warmth of Christmas.

We’re so so so thankful to The Christmas Atelier team for creating such a beautiful, meaningful space and for having us once again. 🤗

On this exact date 4 years ago, I had my very first pop-up. I didn’t have everything figured out, I didn’t know how it would turn out, but I knew I wanted to trust God with the small step in front of me.

And today, 4 years later, I get to share about the God who provides for us in both the small and big ways. That in itself feels so surreal and so humbling. I never imagined that my story, or our little journey, could be something worth sharing.

What an honour it is to be invited to share about my faith journey and to speak about what God has done in our lives. Every open door, every kind word, every little miracle, all of it points back to Him.

These past four years haven’t been easy or perfect, but they have been full of His faithfulness. In the highs, in the doubts, in the waiting, in the quiet seasons, He has never left us.

All praise to God, who has been faithful in every season, every step, and every year of this journey. 🙌🤗

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1)

May this be your reminder that He is your Shepherd, He always provides what you need. 💕
