DIY : Mason Jar Memories

Salam and hello everyone! 
It's Monday. Happy working :) The first day after a long break of Chinese New Year.. 

For past few weeks, I've been looking for a birthday present.. maybe perfume, shirt or anything that money can buy. However, it was useless..I can't afford anything that sounds meaningful-affordable-yet-look-expensive things..

Thus, with empty pocket and tons of times I have, handmade gift would be the only amazing option left.

Presenting... *drum rolls*

Mason Jar Memories
Rate of difficulty is 2/5.

The hardest part was to do the drawing. Although you don't need impeccable drawing skills, I find that tracing (yes, traced) is quite hard. Well, I mean to get it looks as close as original picture.

Skip it and use photos if you want. 

Here are the steps:

Tadaa..

and pack away..

p/s:
Besides tracing photos on window panel, I just trace photos from laptop instead.
Add transparency sheet behind the paper, to ensure it fixed in place and as a protector I suppose.

10 Surprising Ideas to Make Life Easier : Home

Assalammualaikum and hello!

My first intention in starting this blog was to be informational as I could and share it to the whole world. As far as I know, I am not really close to that intention. Am I? hehehe... So, this is my first entry to share some tips I've stumbled upon. 

This time, it is about home, from organizing, cleaning, decorating and of course, making life easier . So here are the top 10 surprising ideas for your home.

Cord Lables

Start to keep your bread bag clips and use them to label the look alike power cords. Should be less problem figuring out which power cord you want to turn off.

Scheduling Assistant

This is way too cute. Seeing is always believing, right? Using clothes pins represent each day, clip any to-do index card for the day. It is green, reusable and save a lot of times. 

Light Embellishment

Bright up some of your old boring Raya festive lights with this idea. All you need is strand of lights and cupcake liners.

Bamboo Organizer

Why I didn't think of this before, bamboo steamer could be a cute organizer. I really love this! It is simple yet speaks out ingenious! *Runs searching for one*

Wrappers Storage

Architecture students: no more reasons for untidy room okay. There's always a space for those scattered drawings..or even models, model boards..anything wire could endure. 

Cleaning Ceiling Fan

Trouble cleaning those dusty ceiling fan? No more worries. Cover a fan blade with an old pillowcase and pull it over to wipe.No more dust scattered all over the floor.

Ribbon Dispenser

Works as ribbon dispenser and keeps all ribbon in place.  Again students, might as well works with masking tape, cellophane tape,  duct tape...no excuse for missing tape again.

Matching Sheets

Just tuck the sheet set inside its pillowcase and cut off time to hunt for lost matching pair. Plus, it is nicer to be seen, it looks like a cute small pillow.

To-do List Board

via: realsimple.com
Instead buying boring blank whiteboard, opt for this stylish picture frame as dry-erase board. Frame any amazing pattern fabric or paper (I'm thinking of doily), you can write your to-do list on the glass. Make sure  you write with non-permanent marker.

Mason Jars Storage

I love mason jars and I love how easily we can see things inside them. Just put all teeny weeny items inside the jars and you'll be clutter-free, as easy as that.
