Creative & practical??




Salam lovelies,


I guess I was a bit emotional in the previous entry and thus today I decided to share some fun with you guys. Or perhaps an entry to say that I'm okay now! ;)

Living in Australia has taught me to be creative and practical (?) person. Creative in a way that you can see things differently and being practical as if you can make the most of something. I'm not sure if I'm using the right term though. I'm not a 'guru bahasa' (haha).

What I'm trying to say is when you see some old stuff or an abandoned things or things that is no longer in use and turn it to something useful using your own creativity! I know most people in Malaysia will just throw away things that they no longer need. I use to be one of them! (hee...) But here in Australia it is so different. If they have things that they no longer need or use, they usually donate or give them away to others for free. Some even sell them for cheap/ at reasonable price during garage sale or market day. Most of my stuff that I collected or get are from the charity/bundle shop, garage sale, market or just pick up for free. Ni baru namanya praktik cara hidup Islam ey?

Anyway, one day when I was on the way back from somewhere ( I can't remember), I saw a toy house! It's a big toy house! And I always wanted a toy house.... when I was a kid of course! The condition was not so bad. Just a little bit of rusty and dusty (heh).

Since I don't have kids yet, so I don't really need this yeah? But, the moment I saw this toy house I know I can transform this cutey into something more practical for me to use.... Can you guess?





 We just dismantle this toy house, give it some fresh look with new colour and reassemble it back! Tadaaaa.... Now, it became a cabinet/ cupboard which I use to put my dvd and book collections. And le-hubby claimed one shelf to display his diecast car for helping me to get the job done!



So, what do you think? Was it practical and creative? ;P

DIY Kad Kawin- sneak preview

Baru aje semalam buat sneak preview untuk bilik. Hari ini nak buat sneak preview untuk kad kahwin pula. Untuk makluman semua, kad ini saya DIY. Saja nak test skill dalam mereka kad kahwin sendiri. Yang ni cover aje baru siap! Map masih pening-pening lalat lagi. Anyone care to help? I would really appreciate that.

Sebenarnya masa awal dulu saya nak tempah aje. Ada aje kad yang harga 40 sen sekeping tapi of course lah design dia tak seberapa. Walaupun saya nak bajet murah dan tak nak membazir tapi still saya nak sesuatu yang istimewa untuk wedding saya kan.

Bila tengok kad Nurfatiha yang buat sendiri (actually kawan dia yang design, but I still consider as DIY) maka mood saya kembali teruja untuk buat sendiri my wedding kad. Maka inilah hasil kerja seorang amatur yang tak ada qualification in art and design tapi saya buat sepenuh hati dengan rasa kecintaan. Ayat...fuhhh.... Sila jangan gelakan hasil kerja saya k..huhu...


pink+green theme


Mungkin tak cantik di pandangan kamu. But I love it. Saya tunjuk pada Belahan Jiwa via YM chat and he loves it too.

So, now dah nekad nak proceed dengan kad buatan sendiri cuma harus usaha keras untuk buat peta lokasi pula. Semoga diberi ilham!
