Easy Weekend Projects! Decoupage!

My S.I.L in states sent me some cool unused wallpapers for my decoupage projects that I am so reluctant to use (hehehe) sayang nak guna dok simpan more than 2 months sebab ada wallpaper tuh tinggal the only one takde extra so sebab itulaah sayang nak guna.
Not until I saw this plain white wooden container cost around rm20.00 and decided to give it a 'facelift' while watchin telly. Tadaaa..I love how it turns out.. it really make my day! Thank you so much for sending me those papers. It was awesome!

A Cute Project for the Weekend!

It was a busy weekend, and yet somehow I managed to complete this DIY Miniature Jewelry Store in a frames .

It was so easy and fun to do! all you need to do..is to follow the instructions provided, have some patience and a good glue on hand. I hate using the glue provided in the box because it is so hard to get all the things to stick properly so..my advice would be.. to make things easier & faster do use a 'UHU' glue or 'gam gajah' heheh tapie..ada nampak kuning2 skett bila dah kering jadik kena hati2 skett jangan comot2.

Little Garden Overhaul!

This is arwah bapak's little garden. In relatively little time masa balik kampung for hari raya for about a week...this garden has overgrown and ada 'pest' buat rumah unofficially under the bark of the palm's tree. That little pest make its' home sweet home by gathering the soils and pebbles and formed somewhat that look like a little hill to me and siap ada 3 lubang entrance lagik. Mula-mula ingatkan the kiddos yg dok hilangkan batu2 putih yg telah disusun by arwah bapak rupanyer2 kerja some big rodents. Gila punyer besar. Kucing pun lalu jerr. Terkejut badak..besarnya cam badan kucing ekkkk...so geli..! Then we called DBKL to get rid of the pest. It took about more than 2 weeks baru depa mai bubuh racun. I dah resah giler. Punyer lama...I didn't do any gardening work sebab takut. Nak buang sampah pun boleh phobia. Dah jadik cam routine pulak tunggu lori sampah sebab nak buang sampah punyer pasal. In the end called Mr. Bong from Suria Garden...mintak tolong overhaul garden bapak so that we all senang nak maintain. Tergelakk si Bong...sebab..well..I'm not a green thumb person takat trim & siram2 kasi hidup tuu boleh laa..kalau nak buat re-arrangement or tanam pokok baru I am absolutely clueless.. I do appreciate plants and its beauty tapie kalau suruh nak semai kaa, nak anak kaa, nak tut kaa..I dunno (heheh). Tapie yg paling tak boleh lupa..masa hari overhaul hari tuh..punye ramailaaa..kengkawan bapak..makcik2 and pakcik2 in the car ataupun naik motor dok stop over and asked what's up! Yg lagie tak boleh lupa bila..Tok Ucop..bapak's good friend siap datang and hang around for 20 mins cam panic and asked whether I wanted to demolish garden arwah bapak kaa? Hehehe. Takdelaa begitu sekali..cuma kasi kemas and buang pokok2 yg dah layu & mati and I could see he was so relieved. Manataknyer kenangan manis sebab arwah pagi2 dah sibuk buat gardening kat depan rumah..and angkat tangan kat semua kengkawan dia yg pegi kerja, hantar anak, pegi pasar dan lain2 urusan even postman & gravedigger pun boleh bertanya khabar and sampaikan salam takziah when they got to know kembalinya arwah ke rahmatullah. Al-fatihah. I missed bapak & mom so much!!

Colours

Red is the colour of anger,welling up inside of me.

Orange is the colour of fun,and all my happy energy.

Yellow is the colour of the sun,which makes me feel happy and warm.

Green is the colour of giggles and laughts,midnight feasts in a boarding school dorm'.

Blue is the colour of calm and cool,like swimming in a summer pool.

Purple is the colour of arty ideas,crayons and pencils and paint.

Pink is the colour of blushing and happy,love and kisses and all stuff that's sappy.

Colours describe how we feel every day,so listen to colours.

They'll help you find your way.

Quotes of the day

Sudden love for BREADOU!

Now, look what I found: another sudden love! :)

I love the smell from this breadou is so delisciousa almost like a real fresh bread and it is so cute too! It is actually an ergonomics computer wrist rest. I spotted this at OU. Lots of people came by to squeeze and smell the fake bread and it is so irresistably squeezy...quite dangerous for little children sebab bauunyer so tempting almost like a real bun!

Visit the breadou official website*here*

A message every adult should read...

because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say...

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator
and I immediately wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that
it was good to be kind to animals.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make my favorite cake for me
and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew there
is a God I could always talk to and I learned to trust in God.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend
who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of your time and money to
help people who had nothing and I learned that those who have something
should give to those who don't.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you take care of our house and
everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw how you handled your responsibilities,
even when you didn't feel good and I learned that I would have to be responsible
when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and
I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's alright to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared and I wanted
to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of life's lessons that
I need to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and wanted to say,
'Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking.'

Each of us(parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, teacher or friend) influences
the life of a child. How will you touch the life of someone today?

Weekend Recap: Bday Party, Father's Day & photography session!

Oh, what a weekend! It was exhausting and exhilarating and beautiful and so full of such incredible love. I am, literally, hoarse today and need to take a break from talking and doing and just BE. It was just a great Sunday (dari pagi sampai malam).

Sebelah pagi the kiddos attended birthday party Adam Damien & Kaseh Damya Aryssa at KFC Sunway. Mummy Adam nih room mate Mama masa college dulu.

Thank you for having us. The kids had a good time. Adam Damien so bubbly and lippy heheh. Adam & Kaseh's had a pirate theme birthday party.

Then we headed home to pack some stuff untuk bergambar kat WOW studio. 10 budak cramming in the white studio boleh imagine punyer ribut. It was an impromptu idea and it was fun sebab Tokwan & Opah pun sporting berposing cam filmstar bollywood hehehe. Yang paling susah nak handle the toddlers sebab tak nak mungkin too much pressure kot takpun confused sebab kena lompat laa, baring laa, sengih laa etc terpaksa bribed bagi candies and chocolates. We managed to get 300 shots of the kids and parents. Kudos to Hafiz Ismail the Founder and photographer of WOW studio. It was a solid 1 hour of fun and laughter Then we headed for dinner at 'Kedai Kopi' an outdoor restaurant overlooking a lake in Shah Alam. Very nice ambience!

Lepas tu balik CHRS and had a cake and coffee before everyone balik rumah masing-masing.Happy Belated Father’s Day to all the daddies out there. A special thank you to my husband for being a great dad and giving me all these wonderful children to love.

Voila! YOu've WOn Dd! Congrats!

After...participated in the ' Design A Tesco Green Bag Contest' kat food court...nun di penghujung kedai dalam Tesco ada another contest going on in conjunction of school holiday. It was a colouring contest organized by a Magazine Publication company called Voila. The Boys got to colour a page of Disney Pixar The Cars and the girls got to colour the Tinker Bell fairy. Participants ada lebih dari 20 orang.

An hour later the organizer announced all the winners and Dd was one of the winners. He received a consolation prize free 12 issues Mail Subscriptions of Disney Pixar The Cars Magazine starting next month. He was so happy and was grinning from ear to ear sampai balik rumah. Tapi masa kat stage muka cam confused jer hehehe.
