We make Handcrafted Capiz Shell pieces, yung ganda na hindi kumukupas

Hindi ko alam kung familiar kayo sa Capiz shells.

It's a part of the Philippine History

Yun yung manipis na shell aka windowpane oyster dito satin. Yung parang bintana noong unang panahon, around Spanish era na ginagamit sa simbahan, sa lumang bahay kasi kahit nakasara, nakakapasok pa rin yung liwanag.

Ngayon, yun na yung ginagawa namin araw-araw.

We have a workshop in Bataan, kami mismo yung gumagawa ng mga jewelry box, chandeliers, lamp shades at iba pang mga personalized items pang giveaways, weddings, events or more

Then, I decided to setup yung online store this year.

Yung tito ko rin pala yung nag-inspire sakin na simulan. Siya mismo yung gumagawa kasama yung master artisans nya, he's been in the exporting before sa Capiz din back in 1980's. Siya rin yung nagturo sakin kung paano gumawa, first I made was a Bahay Kubo made from capiz shells

Yung mga kamay niya, kabisado na yung bawat hiwa, bawat dikit, bawat polish. Ngayon, kasama na niya yung mga bagong tina-train nya. Mahirap sa una pero kita mo na yung pasensya at yung pag-iingat. Minsan inaabot ng ilang araw bago matapos ang isang piraso. Depende sa hirap ng design. Minsan mas matagal. Hindi minamadali because we want it to be always quality.

Pero here's the reality and sabi ng tito ko noon, "walang yumayaman sa pagca-capiz" and "halos lahat ng makikita mong magca-capiz mahirap". I observed and yun nga rin yung napansin ko, except dun sa mga dating kasama sa mga capiz exporters kaso matatanda na sila and unti-unti nang nawawala or umoonti yung gumagawa ng mga capiz crafts. And that's just one of the reasons why I decided to start this small business, I aim to revive this type of craft and hopefully in the future we can start exporting again. This means it will enable us to give more jobs, preserve the unique craftsmanship and yung pakiramdam na makapagbigay ka ng luxury-feel sa mga tao without them spending too much and yung maipapamana pa nila yung arts and craft sa next generation, then they will ask "Saan 'to gawa?"

Just like a Capiz shell, it's beauty never fades.

Ayun lang naman, skl. Haha. If you're curious, you can search us- Casa Capiz PH on IG/FB, we are also on shapi na rin para mas accessible nationwide

This gonna be the biggest move!

Wait? Really? Do we have hazard pay with this one? Or incentives like medical checkup twice a yr? What do you think guys? Is it worth the risk?

Murang Nursing school sa Bataan?

Hi! Ask ko lang sana if may alam kayong affordable na nursing school sa Bataan. Preferably ‘yung hindi sobrang mahal ang tuition pero okay pa rin ‘yung quality ng education at passing rate. If possible, paki-share na rin sana ‘yung estimated tuition per sem.

LF: couple friends na trentahin

Hi! Just checking if there are any DINK (Dual Income, No Kids) couples / just a couples around Balanga or nearby who might be interested in making new friends. 😊

We're a DINK couple in our early 30s, and sana around our age range din (late 20s to 30s) para medyo same wavelength and life stage. Hehe.

I'm not originally from Bataan, so I never really built my own circle here, even though we've been living here for about 5 years. My husband is from here and has friends, but as expected, most of them are already busy with work, family, and kids, so it's not always easy to get everyone together—which we completely understand.

We've both been working from home since the pandemic. I'm naturally introverted, pero lately I've been wanting to socialize a little more. It would be nice to have people to hang out with and kwentuhan besides each other whenever we go out. (We're perfectly happy together, don't worry. 😂)

Usually, we go out every day off namin, mostly afternoon hanggang gabi because we're definitely not morning people at parehong takot sa init. 😅 So if you're the type na mas gusto ang (affordable lang ha)late lunch, coffee, dinner, or evening tambay, we'll probably get along.

If anyone's interested, we're up for:

  • Food trips 🍜
  • Coffee shop tambay ☕
  • Casual drinks or night out (hindi na pangwalwalan 😅)
  • Card games like Poker, Tongits, Pusoy, etc. (pang-fun lang, hindi hardcore sugarol)

We're hoping to meet people who are mature and drama-free. Yung responsible sa buhay, marunong sa KKB, hindi palautang, walang scammy vibes, walang toxic mindset, walang sulutan,cheating or unnecessary issues. Just genuine people who enjoy good conversations and maybe learn from each other's experiences.

A small group of around 2–3 couples would actually be ideal since medyo introvert ako and limited social batt hehe. Mas madaling i-maintain yung small circle kaysa sobrang laki.

Just trying my luck here. 😄 Curious lang if may iba ring DINK / couples around the area looking for the same kind of friendship. If wala, okay lang din. Baka delete ko rin 'to later pag nahiya ako sa idea na to . 😂 Thank u

So if anybody knows where to buy one please comment or send me a message.
