She has walked along a long way before she finally found her husband. Ms. Wang said that she felt like a child who discovered a Christmas tree: "He boarden my life and gave me the sense of security like a big tree, and created candies and gifts on the tree with his incredibly positive mind and meticulous care. He is a gift from the god and helps me realize my ultimate goal of life. With him, I can wake up happily and go to bed with a peaceful mind."

May you find some comfort here"

REINDEER 驯鹿

Reindeer 驯鹿, 2016. Red Thick Thread Rough Cotton Beanie Hat; vintage reindeer brooch from Mohrsville, Pennsylvania; black veiling from London.

对驯鹿的印象最早来自于一首叫《铃儿响叮当》的童歌。“叮叮当,叮叮当,铃儿响叮当,今晚滑雪多快乐,我们坐在雪橇上。”歌曲里没有驯鹿,但是驯鹿的影子却贯穿全曲,像一个灵动的精灵。这顶帽子是给现居旧金山的Rachel的定制,愿驯鹿的祝福带来明年如诗般的缘分。
