Qing’s workshop.
SMALL INDEPENDENT WORKSHOP · ALWAYS TINKERING

A place to make
and play.

Useful things. Playful things. Things I wanted to exist, so I started building them.

Come in. Have a poke around.

A paper mouse

A paper mouse! It has taken a scrap for its nest. This seems fair.

The workshop wireless

88.3 · Greenhouse FM

You’re listening to rain on a greenhouse roof.

No news. The tomatoes have requested a quiet afternoon.

104.7 · Deep Sea Radio

Dogfish. Slight. Visibility: one sardine.

A warm current approaches from the left. All jellyfish are advised to hold onto their hats.

This concludes the shipping forecast. We appear to have misplaced the ships.

101.1 · Robot Tea Club

Unit one: the correct brewing time is exactly one hundred and eighty seconds.

Unit two: you put the teabag in a USB port.

Unit one: that explains the weak signal.

Unit two: I am making coffee.

The other drawer

A spare screw. One screw. Something in this room is almost certainly missing it.

A mysterious key. A key to something. You try it on the drawer. The drawer is already open.

An important note. DO NOT LOSE THIS. No further instructions. You put it back very carefully.

A NOTE FROM QING

It starts with “what if…”

I started building on my phone while my baby girl played or napped beside me. Somewhere along the way, I remembered how much fun it is to make things.

A little more about me
Here’s to making
the things we wish existed.

ODDS, ENDS & POSSIBILITIES

The ideas drawer

Not everything needs to be a project.
Some things can just be a possibility.

WHAT IF…

A tiny museum for things you almost threw away.

SCRAP 01 / 06

404: sensible ideas not found. The daydreams are doing nicely.

Evening mode

The world gets quiet. The ideas get louder.

A change of atmosphere

A little sunshine for your next big idea.

A little care

Plant watered. Emotional support provided.

Look outside

A message on the misty window. Some things are worth writing down.

You found the windowsill boat!

You found the shelf boat!

You found the desk crane!

The ideas drawer

Not everything needs to be a project. Some things can just be a possibility.

A tiny museum for things you almost threw away.

A weather forecast for your houseplants.

A map of all the places a paper boat might go.

An alarm clock that asks what you were dreaming about.

A lost-and-found for ideas you had in the shower.

A constellation made from the crumbs on your desk.

Some corners are worth exploring.

Psst. Type paper anywhere on this page. On a phone? Tap the little star beside this message.

A sprinkle of confetti

A sprinkle of confetti, just for you.
