Spreading the love of Angry Birds!!

After recovering from my two weeks fever+flu+cough, I've finished 1 set of Angry Birds for lil Arif as requested by Kak Lin. (At last!! yay!!).  Now I know that there's 5 angry birds (some say there's 6, is it?).  I'm actually looking forward to have the stuffing from environmental friendly stuff instead of polyester.  Anyone know where can I find those around Putrajaya? or KL?  coz, I'm total clueless when it comes to that.  Anyway, here's the picture:

 (  picture taken by Kak Lin - right after receiving them and posting them on fb.. \(^^,)/  )
To see smiles of having or just enjoying the sight of these Angry Birds make my heart blooms!! And definitely make my day!  Thanx Kak Lin for the request!  Hope lil Arif will enjoy cuddling them!

Spreading the love of felt!!

This month is the month of FELT!  I've been doing craft using rags and old clothes, and cards...and lately I started to make few gifts for my friend using felt.  Actually it started last year when I bought that D.I.Y bunny family kit in Malacca.  I made 9 bunnies using that kit which i gave away to family and friends.  and they were so happy to have them!!  Its too bad that I didn't take the bunny family photo tho.  Anyway, I''ve made two air fresherner cookies (which I named them 'gegurlz' and 'boboyz') as a good luck charm.

Gegurlz is safely home with Wawa, and Boboyz  is meant to be with Nana...but he's still with me and I'm planning to get it posted next week.

Been making bigger size too, green dragon, cutie bunny and purple t-rex, and all safely home with little Aidan, Alexiss and Waleed.



The latest one is a choc cookie with red sugar topping+sprinkle phone keychain...bought by Yana.  Thanx dearie!! Making felt makes me feel happy....like floating in the air with basket full of love confetti and let them fall and shower the people around me.  Guess you should try that sometimes too.  Well, maybe not by giving felt, but give away anything u feel like giving, trust me, its gonna feel awesome!!!

Grow Bottle!

No, I am absolutely don't have green thumb.  but doesn't mean I can't plant at all ok?  I had a 'open-house' last time and still got the soft-drink bottles lying around.  Ok, ok, I'll get to the point.  I made a grow bottle!  and I'm going to share with you here so that you can make one too and save your money.  even so, if you are one of those who like planting with the intention of watering them but forgot to (like me), grow bottle is something good for you.  Give it a try and let me know how it works for you.  Here's the step-by-step for you to follow:


Note:  This kind of watering is actually called capillary action or wicking.  You can use twine instead of rag (but why bother buy a twine when u got rags or old clothes laying around? =P)
