working with favourite people..

talking about favourite customers and such.. my favourite house-cabinet supplier and contractor for the past 3 years, p.h.mark will soon be my customer instead, and i hope will turn out to be one of my favourite customers too!!

i've known mark since we started sourcing for cabinet makers for our BBhouse, and that should be approx. more than 3years ago when we were still living in USJ9 and mark's showroom was just 2mins away down the road..

my favourite friend zaida, who was/is also my favourite architect, and i would spend time looking through mark's finishes and workmanships whenever we could fit the time & schedule, and mark would always be there accommodating our little requests/changes. at that time he was also busy running around for other projects and eventho we were sometimes made to wait for his arrivals, in the end he efficiently delivered as he promised..

most of my BBhouse cabinets were done by mark. we tried getting other cabinet-makers nearby so as not to bother mark with our never-ending little cabinet additions.. but in the end, we would end up calling him to quote & supply.
i was just thinking of giving him another call a month ago to do up my little son's room, when mark first dialled me up instead..

he's partnering with his cousin to open up a showroom in, new york!! wow.. with his positive attitude, energy and zest in carrying out his responsibilities, i strongly believe mark will do well in his business and career..

and he needs my handmade tiles to showcase together with his cabinets!! another wow, eh?? with my zest tappering down with age and complacencies, favourite people like mark is just what i need..

very soon, my handmade tiles will be showcased in new york along side mark's kitchen tops, bathrooms, walk-in wardrobes, water fountains, etc.. nice working together and doing business with your favourite people, huh??

looking for custom-made tiles, anyone..??

got a call and an email from my client jalex last friday, regarding another custom-made tile order. two types of designs are requested. 200x200mm the size for both. total quantity is only 400pc..

i haven't quoted any price, but as always, i'm more driven by the challenge of coming up with the product/s that would meet all the specified design requirements within the stipulated time given. as long as i don't lose anything but gain something for the time and effort allocated for it, i'm game for developing whatever product samples you may need..

furthermore it's jalex, one of my favourite customers. when old existing customers who have been good paymasters come calling.. i'd bend backwards to accommodate their request, even in my (french) maid's outfit!!

unblogged but kualalumpur-gifts.com is now live!!

my last blog-post was exactly 6weeks ago, and what have i been doing...?? apart from replacing my web designer mr. kor with mr. pathi and instructing my staff of some production orders, i haven't been working so much on building my online businesses, but instead, i've been very busy being a maid!! yes, i've been a slave to my own castle...!!

it's been nearly a month now, and my lady masseuse commented that my back waistline has toned and slimmed down!! after a month of daily housechores, i've lost the few kgs that has been nagging me for years!! always a blessing in disguise, huh?? ;) losing my maids have kept me fitter.. but tired-er.. and that's how the lady masseuse has come to be a weekly visitor lately.. my tired joints and limbs need weekly rejuvenation!!

my mind needs rejuvenations too, so that's the reason for today's post..

the website promoting & selling my handmade tiles featuring motives of famous malaysian buildings and essences of malaysian lives is now almost live..!! it may still need a few ammendments here and there, and most importantly a connection to a payment counter, but nonetheless, everything is finally coming to fruititions at www.kualalumpur-gifts.com
