I want IKEA kitchen...bahagian satu: Impian

Sebenarnya aku lebih suka panggil cina kedai dapur buat...just bagitau nak macam mana pastu siap...senang kan?
Lagipun aku rasa Faktum Kitchen tu mesti mahal....
Tapi hubby aku suka ikea kitchen...
Tapi kami di kulim....ikea di damansara....jauh tu.
Camner nak bawak mai sini....baik amik kedai cina kan?
So, kami pun panggil kedai cina berdekatan mai buat quotation...

dapur aku memang kecil. dalam 2 meter x 3.8 meter. Boleh pasang kabinet sebelah saja. Tak muat pasang 2 belah...cina tu quote aku RM11,000. Tak termasuk hood/hob/oven....
Bajet kami: RM6000 saja....
Sedih sebab dalam hati macam impian nak kabinet dapur hancur berkecai....

Adik suruh minta quote tempat lain, hubby suruh design guna ikea kitchen....
Masalahnya aku malas dan takdak masa nak design2 ni....maklumlah usahawanita berjaya. Mana ada masa...

Penyuntik semangat

Cuba intai dapuq aku sekarang ni....selerak dan penuh barang....meluat duduk kat dapur.

dapuq ni aku nak simpan dan combine sekali dengan kitchen baru....save cost.

antara aksesori ikea yg dah dimiliki

tangkap muat....dapuq ni, taktau nak sumbat freezer di mana....geram kat arkitek rumah ni sebab tak reti design dapur.

tudia....antara aksesori ikea yg dah pasang....ikea kitchen wannabe...

Vintage DIY Ring Holder

Salam semua,
Idea ni dapat dari favourite site iaitu: Pinterest. What would i do without Pinterest....
FYI, orang putih memang kreatif. Ibu-ibu rata-rata berhenti kerja atau SAHM dan sangat aktif buat kraf dan ada aktiviti macam-macam....seronok baca blog depa. Depa pula tak kedekut ilmu....suka share.

Ok, jom kita buat satu benda ni aku sangat suka. Sesuai dibuat hadiah. Mula-mula you kena print gambar vintage. Aku memang suka gambar vintage. Save dulu dalam komputer, then print. Boleh rujuk link pinterest board Mamalina>print it. Semua ada koleksiku untuk di print....jangan lupa beli frame dan hook. Penting sekali aku cuma gunakan gam PVC yang warna putih tu. Senang didapati di kedai runcit. Gam ni sebenarnya sangat kuat dan boleh bond banyak benda. Kalau omputeh, depa suka guna mod podge. Kat Malaysia ni ada mod podge tapi....rega RM50++ untuk kuantiti yg kecil. Tak gamak nak guna nanti buat perhiasan plak. Gam putih ni RM3.90 sebotol. AKu simpan dalam botol kaca senang sikit nak guna....

Lepas tu, potong gambar vintage tadi dan lekatkan pada board frame (macam gambar di bawah). Lepas kering (2-3 jam) Sapukan gam putih tadi pada permukaan gambar vintage...jangan tebal sangat. Agak-agaklah.

Bila dan siap, tinggalkan 5-6 jam sampai kering betul-betul...lepas kering akan nampak bersinar macam kena wax.

Dah kering....glaze effect.

Bila dah kering, masukkan lah balik dalm bingkai frame. Tak perlulah letak yang kaca tu. Kaca frame tu boleh guna untuk tujuan lain. Di sini, kita lekatkan hook terus pada permukaan gambar vintage tadi...

Dah pun siap....bolehlah gantung cincin/bracelet...

Projek yang sama boleh dipelbagaikan, aku suka buat note board untuk lekatkan gambar dan nota. Enjoy...

Dress Senang - tak de pattern

Sesuailah nak buat baju tidur anak....
Mahal kain tu aku beli kain kapas jepun tu. RM15 setengah ela (yard)...beli online.
Lembut...
Tapi bila keluar masuk Vista Ria Kulim....cotton jepun depa jual rm15-16 jer semeter...bergenang ayaq mata mak...tulah, malas sangat nak kuar soping kain, beli online...nak buat gumana haritu bulan Ramadan letih nak jalan2 sopin itu yg online jelah beli kain potong pun...
T shirt tu beli kat tesco saja tak sampai rm10.
Baju ni buat sebelum raya...baju tidur raya.

Okeh.

Mula-mula beli material....t-shirt dan kain

Ini ialah kun atau lace atau bias tape (i beli online). Tak pernah jumpa kat kedai masa jalan-jalan. 

You agak-agak nak letak di mana kain ni...tandakan.

Potonglah tanpa belas kasihan....RM8.00 jer pun.

Kain in, lipat 2...ikut suka nak ikut ira ke tak, aku ikut ira....60cm lebar X kepanjangan yang diingini. Kalau anak you lebar, biar lebar sikit kain tu ya. Nanti susah nak gerak jadi sarung nangka.

Lepas tu buat kedutan.

Lepas tu jahit pada t-shirt...

Jadilah macam nie...lepas tu tutup sambunga kain-t shirt tadi dengan kun...

Kalau nak hias dengan riben pun boleh....ingat, less is more.

Siap...fyi, riben tu aku dah tetas semula sebab nampak poyo. Takde lagi bagus. Ok, sila jahit.

Down with emo...

Semenjak 2 menjak terasa emo dan down...
Adalah sebabnya tak kan nak share kat sini....biarlah membengkak dalam dada.

Tapikan, aku kesianlah kat mak yang dera anak sampai anak dia mati kat perak tu...
Especially masa dia lawat anak dia dalam coffin...sedihnya.

Menurut akhbar anak yg dia dera tu oku....mungkin stress dia lepas kat budak tu.
Yang peliknya bapak dia tak nampak ke anak berbirat kena rotan...biaq je ker? Tak terlibat?
Mana boleh tak terlibat...
Apapun, I pity her and her two other kids.
Mesti dia tensen buat kerja rumah....layan anak oku lagi, ada anak kecil lagi....
Nak buat camner, nasi dah membubuq.

Kita? Jadikan iktibar. Jangan ikut hati nanti? Ko pikirlah sendiri.

Gift for my niece

Last raya, i gave this to my little 10 months niece...
It was during her aqiqah ceremony, i thought i could give something handmade to the baby...
I crocheted this bunnny blanket within 2 days.
You can find the pattern here at The Little Pomegranate.
Thinking to make more for my kids but i've been buzy ever since....

How to deactivate voicemail? Macam mana mahu menyahaktif mel suara?

Ya...sama macam pengguna lain, i hate voicemail/mel suara.

Kalau dapat mel suara, mesti caller itu tak tinggalkan apa-apa mesej...and i paid for the call. The caller also paid for it...we both paid for nothing.

Untuk hotlink, i never bother to deactivate it coz .... ntah. Been using it since forever and the voicemail is there from the start. Couldn't find a way to deactivate it anywhere include their website...not in faq...only in forum but you have to give them your phone # openly...(openly?)...no happening for me since i already got lots of spammers....not openly. 

Recently, i just feel the need to deactivate my voice mail for both of my lines...hotlink (maxis) and digi. I never activate it. It's already activated from the start.  I really hate it. Most of the times, no real messages in the voice mail. All accidental... 

When i call my mom/sis also they don't pick up and i end up in the voicemail...and hung up. Still have to pay money...grrrr....

Sometimes, my phone rang and i rushed to answer it but i couldn't make it and the call diverted to voice mail. How to pick up within 4 rings? Idiot! Rushing for nothing....

These phone company, they don't wanna tell you how...to deactivate it. I surf blogs...the info already invalid. Sigh...

Okeh, easylah...just call their customer service.

Digi, you call digi helpline: 016-2211800, then you have to endure listening to options given by robots. At first i got fedup and hung up...i called again, just choose whatever number option given to talk to human....Once you talk to human...tell them you want to deactivate voicemail...DONE in seconds. You will receive sms how to activate back (and to deactivate!) the code is:

*128*1*9*3# 

Ha....got it?

For Maxis Hotlink, same. just call CS: 1300 820 120

Endure talking to robots, just choose any number to talk to human. Then tell them you want to deactivate voice mail. They will ask your phone number. Your voice mail will be deactivated within 2 hours.

Problem solved....

Re-purpose unused inner

I have this long inner that should be worn inside a shirt to cover up arms...
The truth is i hate wearing inner. I love cardigan coz it's easier to be taken off once i am safe inside compared to inner.
In this tropical and climate country, inner sucks big time. So my inner just waiting for me inside my drawer until recently...
I didn't snap the inner 's picture before i cut it in the middle. Once i cut, i resembles a cardigan. Then i sew the side that i cut.

Then, i crochet a collar and lace from softspoken. Of course i adjusted the length to make it longer....
The lace is the same pattern as collar, i chained around 170 and finish at round 4.

Final result:

Now, i love it! Wearing it to the hot and sweaty bazaar ramadan and i just feel comfy. Gonna make more.
