🎉 Big News, Friends! 🎉
Guess what? Our online shop is opening its virtual doors on 2/1 at 9 AM EST! It‘s been quite the ride this past year, starting from scratch, learning a ton, and facing our fair share of challenges. If you bump into any glitches, just shout out – we’re in this together!
To say a huge ‘thank you’ for all the support, we‘ve got a sweet deal for you: From 2/1 to 2/15 shop with the link ”softopen2024“ and on orders over $100, shipping’s on us! We hope you find loads of stuff you love in our store.
Got feedback? I‘m all ears. We’re planning to keep adding cool stuff to the mix. Our dream is to spread our passion and creativity far and wide.
Oh, and check this out – I had this super detailed chat with the World Journal last year, which, by the way, is a Chinese-language newspaper for the Chinese-American community in the U.S. We talked about my journey, the ups and downs of starting up, and my love affair with indigo dyeing. Interested? The link‘s in my bio, and while you’re there, why not take a quick peek at our store?
This whole adventure is thanks to your support. Let‘s keep the good vibes and creativity flowing!
Thanks a bunch, and see you in the store.
🎊🎊online shop website is on my bio!
🎉 大好消息! 🎉
經過一年的辛勞和無數夜晚的努力,我激動地宣布:我的線上商店即將在2月1日,東岸時間早上9點正式上線!
這不僅僅是一個購物網站的誕生,更是我個人夢想和熱情的實現。從最初的概念到現在的實現,每一步都充滿了學習和挑戰。這個平台是我親手打造的,目前處於試運行階段,我們可能會遇到一些小挫折,但我相信通過我們的共同努力,一切都將逐步完善。
您的反饋對我至關重要,如果在使用過程中遇到任何問題,請毫不猶豫地與我聯繫。我計劃逐步引入更多精彩的商品和服務,讓這個平台成長和進化。
我想借此機會感謝過去一年中與我面對面交流的每一位客戶。您的建議和支持是我不斷前進的動力。
此外,我也想分享一下我去年10月在《世界日報》上的專訪。這篇報導詳細記錄了我自從7年前接觸藍染,來到美國創業並走過的每一步。這是我創業之旅的真實寫照,我非常珍惜。專訪的連結和我的線上商店連結都在我的個人資料連結中找到。目前,我們只在美國地區提供服務,但我希望未來能擴展到更多地區,將這份熱愛和創意帶給世界各地的朋友。
如果您支持我的理念,喜愛手工藝品,或者簡單地想要支持一位追夢者,請關注我的Instagram,並將我的網站推薦給您的朋友。讓我們一起將這份美好和創造力傳遞給更多人!

📖✨ 我的藍色攝影集悄悄完成了。 I quietly finished my blue-themed photo collection
. 這本攝影集由攝影師 Yong Zhu @yooongerpants 捕捉,每一張照片都帶著他細膩的眼光與光線的溫度。 Photographed by Yong Zhu, every image carries his gentle way of seeing light, color, and the quiet moments of creation.
收藏的是我在灣區的創作、生活與教學日常,也收藏了我們一起在工作室與市集裡記錄下的藍色故事。 These pages hold pieces of my studio life, teaching moments, and the blue stories we captured together across the Bay Area.
從這週開始,攝影集會放在我的攤位上,歡迎你翻翻每一頁的藍色呼吸。 Starting this week, the book will be at my booth—feel free to flip through and enjoy each gentle page of blue.
🎄 這週五 & 六,我會在 SJMADE Holiday @sjmade 市集。 I’ll be at the SJMADE Holiday Fair this Friday and Saturday.
這次帶去的作品特別豐富,也有幾款新品會第一次亮相。 I’m bringing a full, diverse collection this time, including several new pieces debuting at the market.
如果你來,歡迎停下腳步、和我打聲招呼,也看看這本藍藍的攝影集。 If you visit, come say hi and take a moment to explore this little blue book with me.
📍 SJMADE Holiday Fair 📅 Friday & Saturday 11/28、11/29 期待在藍色裡遇見你。 Hope to meet you in the blue. 💙

April brings three special workshops —
from family bonding, to cultural learning, to private creative sessions.
Each one is a different way to experience indigo. 💙

✨ Speaker Spotlight: Nina Chen
She started over in a new country —
with a piece of fabric and a craft she loved.
Nina Chen @dreamfieldsindigo , founder of Dream Fields Indigo,brought traditional indigo dyeing from Taiwan to the Bay Area.
From local markets to building her own brand,
she turned handmade work into a creative business.
Her story is about patience, identity,
and creating something from the ground up.
📅 March 28; this Saturday afternoon; In-person in Palo Alto or Online
🎟 Join us at Women’s Summit (link in bio)
March is a quieter month in the studio — but also a very meaningful one.
三月對我來說是一個比較安靜的月份。
沒有太多市集或公開工作坊,我會把時間留在工作室,好好染布、完成訂單,也準備新的創作。
同時,三月也是我們的 家庭月。
是女兒的生日月,我的媽媽也從台灣來探訪,我們會一起慶祝、一起旅行、一起度過一些很珍貴的家庭時光。
這個月唯一的一場公開活動,是我將參與 NATEA Women Summit 的短講分享。
我會以 一位在矽谷創業的女性創業者 的身份,分享自己在美國建立藍染品牌的過程——
如何從沒有資源與人脈開始,一步一步走到今天。
現場也會有許多優秀的臺灣女性創業者一起分享她們的故事與經驗。
如果有興趣,很歡迎來參加這場活動 ✨
📅 March 28, 2026

關於我的分享主題與 panel 細節,之後也會再公布。
三月我大多時間都會在工作室。
