Make up an empty milk can | Mencantikkan sikit tin susu kosong

Put by the table lamp | Letak ia di tepi lampu meja

Just to show adik what and how to recycle some of the things. Love to hoard some or donate.  Usually I hoarded or transit things to a  place in the house, then only give them to the people who collected recycle scraps.  I love things, it's kinda hard to let go of anything, everything has a potential of becoming useful somewhere in my perspective. 

I've been to the Eco shop; where almost all things inside the store have a RM2 price tag. I couldn't resist to buy fake flowers. I am not a fan of plastic flowers, but real flowers come and go faster before you could enjoy them; So.. these fakey came in handy. 

So for this DIY project, there were 5 items:

    1. Rope - natural brown or white           would looked good. 

    2. Can - size up to you. 

    3. Glue

    4. Flowers

    5. Label sticker (farmhouse style) 

Apply glue around the tin can and go around it with the rope string til the whole can is covered. Stick the labeling sticker to your liking. And it's completed on the decoration part. Of course the next thing to do was arranging the flowers inside, which you can do as per your creativity flow.

Just love that farmhouse look style. It's simple to make and it make use of the recycle items. Actually you can also pick real flowers and dry them and use them to add the farmhouse elements. 

Thats it for  today's art session. Welcome for the next segment :) Thank you

Love you all ❤️

Hanya berkongsi dengan adik cara menguna pakai bahan kitar semula untuk sesetengah benda. 

Suka menyimpan, sayang nak buang. Kadang beri kepada jiran, kadang transit satu tempat di dalam rumah, baru bawa keluar. 

Suka semua barang, nampak saja setiap benda tu ada banyak pontensinya, ikut perspektif minda. 

Pergi ke kedai eco, yang mana hampir semua barang barang nya berharga RM2 serba satu; Tak boleh tahan, nak beli bunga. Sebenarnya tak gemar bunga plastik pun. Bunga segar selalunya melayukan diri sebelum dapat dinikmati. Jadi.. akar pun berguna kan.. 

Untuk DIY ni, ada lima bahan

1.Tali - kalau boleh yang warna natural coklat atau putih. 

 2.Tin kosong - sais ikut suka

 3.Gam

 4.Bunga

 5. Stiker label berkonsep Rumah           Ladang

Sapu gam disekeliling  tin susu kosong. Lilit hingga penuh tertutup tin. Lekat stiker label di tengah tin. Letak bunga di dalamnya ikut minda kreatif masing masing, siap dah. 

Rasa menarik berelemen rumah ladang. Ringkas, guna kembali dari barang kitar semula. Cuma bunga plastik kurang sesuai, lebih elok ambil bunga betul, keringkan dan gunakan untuk menambah elemen rumah ladang. 

Itu saja sesi seni kali ini. Jemput ke segmen baru nanti :) Terima kasih. 

Sayang semua ❤️

Terrarium with Adik

Bahasa dan video seminit di bawah :) 

English version and one minute video below :) 

Basics are small rocks, soil, mold and small plants. 

 keperluan asas ialah batu kecil, tanah dan lumut.

Glass bottle from empty jam bottles or plastic clear cookies containers | 

Botol kaca dari botol jam yang kosong atau  bekas plastik biskut

Adik was free in the morning, I asked her to join me to feed the birds. When we were outside I felt so fresh and heavy heart to go back inside the house. 

The ventilation in the house was

 not fresh as we closed all window except one or two. During physical school she would go out and school ventilation is way better. 

I got an idea to make terrarium as I think it is cute. A tiny garden in the a jar. The coway lady who came had ever bought out creation. 

Items needed

Empty Jam Jar or mayonaise Jar

Pebbles

Soil 

Mold

Small Plants

Tools small spoons will do. Mold can be found at top of the drain but can be replaced with sands to cover the soil. I have chosen one photo for you to see as some kept in the external harddisk.  In the video I used smaller jar. 

Hope you enjoy simple tiny gardening:) 

Peace always❤️

Adik ada masa lapang di waktu pagi, saya ajak dia turut keluar memberi makan burung. Bila dah berada di luar rasa sayang pula nak tinggal udara segar dingin di luar. 

Semasa di sekolah adik akan dapat pengudaraan yang lebih bagus. 

Perudaraan di dalam rumah kurang segar kerana satu atau dua tingkap saja di buka, kecik je pulak tu. Belum ada net lagi.

Saya dapat idea nak buat terarrium. Kami dah pernah buat sebelum ni. Bila adhoc ni macam kurang bahan. Comel taman kecil ni, bercucuk tanam tapi dalam bekas kecil. Pernah pekerja coway beli hasil kerja kami. Alhamdulillah.  Saya letak gambar satu untuk tatapan manakala yang dalam video guna botol lebih kecil. 

Bahan yang diperlukan

Botol jam yang kosong, atau botol mayonis. 

Batu kecil-kecil

Tanah

Lumut

Anak-anak pokok yang kecil

Alatan tu boleh je guna sudu yang tak digunakan lagi. Lumut boleh didapati di lereng parit ataupun letak pasir hanya untuk menutupi tanah. 

Harap kalian dapat manfaat dari bercucuk tanam skala kecilan :)

Salam tenang selalu❤️

Multigrains Mix for Adik's breakie | Campuran Bijirin untuk Sarapan adik

Bahasa dan video seminit di bawah :)

English version and one minute video below :)

Demo for her to use hot water |  tampil cara penggunaan air panas

She only observed | Dia cuma lihat saja caranya

She found its hard to make warm cereal for herself. I assumed because the mix needs heating up water and pour to the bowl. She was used to water machine, not to kettle. 

She has to adapt with what we have and make the best out of it. She saw we had oats that morning and wanted similar as she prefers cereal mix than oats.  

Adik and abang used to make warm cereal on their own, recently due to MCO we didn't have the service people to service the hot, cold and room temp water filtration machine. Luckily we have a better filtration machine that has ultra violet to kill the germs but with the minerals remain intact. Its ok for mineral we drink milk or juice. 

Adik only looked how to boil water hehe. Then its ready for her to have a delicious Nestum cereal without sugar but with raisins and apples. What do you have for breakfast, do you like  multi grains from Nestum by Nestle? 

Happy Monday ❤️

Adik rasa susah untuk nak buat bijirin panas.  Mungkin kerana perlukan proses memasak air dan tuang ke mangkuk. Adik biasa dengan mesin pemanas air tapi bukan dengan cerek letrik.

Adik perlu menyesuaikan diri dan buat sebaik mungkin dengan apa yang ada dirumah. Hari itu kami makan oats dan adik pun mahu seperti itu, tapi adik lebih minat campuran bijirin. 

Adik dan abang pernah buat bancuhan bijirin suam sendiri. Sejak MCO tiada dibenarkan membuat servis mesin penapis air. Alhamdulillah ada satu lagi mesin penapis yang berultra violet. Ia lebih bagus kerana ada lampu ultra biru membunuh kuman jadi mineral di dalam air tetap ada. Apapun untuk dapat mineral boleh minum susu dan jus kan. 

Kali ni adik cuma tengok dulu cara masak air hehe. Dah siap dapatla dia menikmati sarapan yang sihat dan sedap iaitu bijirin penuh dari berjenama Nestum di letak kismis dan potongan epal. Sedap dan elok untuk penghadaman. Kalian suka Nestum? Kalian bersarapan apa hari ni? 

 

Salam Isnin❤️

A morning at the kitchen | Sepagi di dapur

Bahasa dan video kurang seminit di bawah :)

English version and less than one minute video below :) 

When having breakfast separately / Bila bersarapan asing-asing

When will lunch be prepared, breakfast enjoyed by one after another. / tiada ruang nak mula memasak untuk makan tengahari bila sarapan bergilir-gilir

This morning, I've made a decision not to say anything to kids as long as it's not harmful or dangerous. The worst case scenario that I saw she used metal tongs to tweak & pull out the pancake in the toaster. I told her many times to switch off at the plug or use plastic tongs instead.

Actually its not a big deal as the the toaster not pressed on. It was off, yet back of the mind I worried the tong is wet.  But grateful everything is fine n

My aim to make adik a morning person. Actually we didn't have breakfast together for awhile. Abang had breakie alone after dusk, then get ready to school online at 7:30am. Later, me and my dear hubby had breakfast and adik didn't come in yet. 

While I was sitting, that's when I was looking at adik and saw how adik would think and did her breakfast. Sometime bread with marshmallows, the small marshmallows left a bit for drinks. She took it on her bread. No wonder she is quiet when having her food, because she didn't want us to comment on something, I think. 

I'm not sure how to 'parent' kids, is this right sentence hehe but how my mom did was simple; She would left breakfast stuff under the food cover, and wrote a love note. It's lovely too. 

I used to write in abang dan adik's lunch box, but abang said he ate the fruits in the car and the note he had read and keep. Maybe he felt embarrassed if his friends saw it.  

Adik heated up chilled pancake in the toaster

That's the journey of that particular kid of today :) 

Happy monday❤️ again.. Time flies so fast, may have blessings in each day. 

Pagi ni saya buat keputusan tak nak tegur apa-apa, hanya nak duduk dan lihat saja. Selagi semua baik saja dan tidak merbahayakan diri, biarkan ajalah.

Senario yang paling ketara pun yang nampak, adik guna tong besi untuk kepit dan keluarkan penkek tu dari pembakar roti, kalau boleh nak juga cakap ambil pengepit plastik. Memang risau dengan elektrik, berlogam atau basah walaupun pembakar roti tidak ditekan pasang hehe. Alhamdulillah semuanya ok.

Matlamatnya nak adik bangun pagi dan terus bersarapan, tidak tidur balik.

Saya dah abis sarapan, Itu yang dapat duduk dan lihat, bila adik masuk perhati apa yang adik lakukan.

Sebenarnya dah lama tak bersarapan sekali pun, abang bersarapan sendiri selepas subuh, dan terus ke sekolah atas talian pukul 7:30am. Saya dan suami bersarapan selepas itu. Dan adik yang terakhirlah.

Kadang-kadang dia letak marshmallow atas roti, Marshmallow tu memang dah sikit untuk minuman panas. Dia letak atas roti. Senyap ja makan seorang diri. Sebab tu diam sayang, tak nak la mama komen apa-apa kut. 

Tak pasti la saya nak mendidik anak-anak, macam ibu saya letak makanan bawah tudung dan letak nota cinta yng ditulis ditepi, ibu pegi kerja dan ingatkan saya makan sarapan. Sweetkan. Saya pernah buat dalam lunch box abang adik. Abang kata dia makan buah dalam kereta dan mesej tu dah baca dan simpan. Sebab segan makan buah disekolah berkertas mesej lagi. 

Adik panaskan penkeknya di dalam pembakar roti

Itulah perjalanan hidup seorang kanak-kanak zaman sekarang dari rumah ini lah :) 

Salam Isnin ❤️ cepatnya masa berlalu, moga ada keberkatan dalam setiap hari. 

PS : Adik approved the blog and video.
