Lim has been working on the shop since 2014 and it is now fully completed.
OMG, she even made individual capsule shells to go into the vending machines!

Confession – our writer John used to spend a lot of money on vending machines because he wanted this Tamagochi toy.

Lim has set up shop in events like Urbanscapes to sell her creations, but not all of them are for sale
