cheap? doesnt matter ;)

had bfast wit a gud fren @ mcD damansara damai on saturday. otw back, gatal nk check our SSF nearby my house area.

mat kecik was more than happy to help wit the trolley. org dh kenyang, dpt pulak mcD hotcakes + iced milo pagi2.
i got these. they were cheapo - square tin (top right) was only 2.30, the 3 round medium ones 5.00 each & the big ones 7++.

operasi cheapo deco started once we got home. 1st was removing the dangling deco light fr our tv rack...
to here ;) it looks much nicer at nite. yes, i dont like too much light, on weekdays we only let the pendaflour light on wen dhani does his homework. pastu we just switch on tis deco light & 2 other floor lamps + some scented candles ;)

2nd was the dining table. i bought new plate mats but they are put underneath the white ones coz they dont look very nice laid there on their own. at 1st i felt like it was quite a waste but on 2nd thot, since the white ones dont really function well as plate mats, they were just perfect to be paired. yeay!

& the center piece is a zen candle holder, a bday gift :)

then for a change o look, i put tis cloth on our book rack, just to add some colors to our solemn living room. it's not even a table runner, it's actually some kind o selendang given by my sister. she got it wen she visited makasar last year. it's made o bugis silk. i love the stripes ;)

that's my reading lamp there surrounded by candle holders. & that tabung needs to be reachable for dhani at all time ;)

our old plate mats. not meant for heavy duty. so wat i did was i glued the strands back 2gether and use them to deco our tv rack ;)

our new aquarium. can u see our pet guppy fantail fish? ;) too bad they died few hours later. mb it was the water or the stones. the aquarium cost 24 only (50% off fr ssf defect corner)

nxt, came the challenging chores. hanging these strands o deco curtain.

these were the old ones for dhani's room.

replaced wit these ;) 2 inggit each. at 1st i thot o buying more tis w'end, but if there are too many, they will get tangled easier, so i've decided to just let them be.

these ones were at my room. also 2 inggit each fr ssf (but out o stock already now).


i replaced them wit these. somehow, the look isnt wat i had visualised. haha. mb i need to add more strands, or make them longer. it just doesnt have the groovy look i actually wanted. these cost 4.70 each.

we also got these tin boxes. i was thinking o storing my cosmetics in here. dhani got 1 also for him, using it to keep the money he's bn saving.

look, he was also bz helping me around the house. attaboy!

smpai kepenatan & tergolek! hehe.

& can u spot my car key in there? kot terbuang, naya! ;p

& we made tis card for 20 inggit. it entitles u for further discount on top o existing discount or discount on normal priced items. cool. just wat a bargain hunter like me need ;)

* i forgot 'bt these tins. they're used to store tea, milk, milo, coffee. nice & look vr organised, dont they? but they arent air-tight so i stil keep the packaging on.


it's not much, but i love it. cheap? doesnt matter ;)
