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!!
