Tolong la....

Please tell me that these are gorgeous. Pweeesssssssssssss...




Using crepe papers: dark purple and blue. The Blue one's kinda big. The purple one is the correct size. 

I'm planning to use this for hantaran deco. Biarla nampak murah. Coz memang cheap whatttt... Those are not end product FYI. I just wanna see how they look like after the arrangement. thee hee...


1 crepe paper = RM0.50
Can be made into 4 flowers.

One tray approximately needs 9-10 flowers.
Might have 9 trays.

So total:

10 flowers (lets round up for this time) x 9 trays

= 90 flowers/4

= 22.5
= 23 sheets of crepe papers x 0.50

= RM11.50 JER NOKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

For polisterine base, 1 = RM1.80

9 trays - 2 trays (cake and sirih junjung)

= 7 trays x RM1.80
= rm12.60

So grand total
= RM11.50 + RM12.60
= RM24.50.

heheheheheh ai sukoooooooo. 

Other stuffs like wires, glue, extra flowers, I still have those extra for engagement. So I dont need to buy them. But am gonna round up the total budget to RM50 la. coz who knows what might turn up in the future.hihi

Ok la. For Ambun, ok sik tok??hehe


p/s Learn to be frugal. Need to be more money wise starting from now.hehe Bye!

DIY Bunga Tissue: Carnation


This afternoon I was feeling really bored and the weather isnt helping at all. I decided to make carnation flower using tissues. My first attempt didnt go really well, so I decided to try again. This time I took pictures of the step. Just to share with all my lovely readers =)

First of all, lemme show you how carnation looks like in real.



Beautiful right?

Since I still have pink tissues in the cupboard, I decided to try making my own carnation. Here's mine:


Sama tak? hik hik *gedik*


 here are the steps. Very easy and it takes about 5-10 minutes to complete one flower.

1. Cut the tissue into half.



2. Pile each ply onto one another. Make a stack.



3. Fold them like making a paper fan. *ala macam kraf time tadika..hee*



This one for clearer view


4. Tie using wire or threads in the middle. Make sure it's tight. After that, pull each ply slowly.


Pull each ply according to the arrow.hehe macam kopak satu2 jadi kelopak.



TADAAAAAAA!!!



I made 2 sizes. One is L size, the other one is S size.

I feel soooo proud of myself. Yerpp i know this is a very simple DIY but knowing that those comes from my 'jantan' hand, the feeling is unbelievable.

One note: pull the tissue slowly, if too rough you might spoil it..like I did. I read that we can use crepe paper as well. Might buy them the next time I go out. Happy trying yalls!!!

p/s Anyhoo, I was inspired by this:


Check out this Kakak's works here. She made them look really gorgeous. woot woot.

Felt project: Camera cover

Yesterday, I had this idea for my felt project: Camera cover. The original pouch is getting worst so I decide to make a new one using felt fabric. It took few hours to complete because I didnt really plan how it'd look like plus I was busy exploring new phone *ehem*.

Anyhoo, here's the product. It looks weird though =.='


with the camera inside. The smiley thingy is supposed to look cute but look creepy instead~~





My initials of course =)



The inside view


the side view.

Hahaha ok you may laugh all you want. I agree this is very untidy, uncute etc. I will improve!

Note to self:

  1. Plan carefully what design you want. I didnt for this project. I spontaneously cut and sew the pieces. Very the malas..
  2. learn more about color combination. color block may work on people not things.
  3. be more meticulous when sewing. dont make mom shake her head again looking at your work.hahahaha
  4. make with love, not because you're bored. 
Comprende?

Next project: MP3 Cover. hehehe
