Boxes of happiness

I'm bored and this is what I did on Sunday afternoon. Organising my locker with boxes wrapped with Typo's wrapping papers.

First box is to place all gadget accessories such as pendrives, hard disk, cables, chargers and batteries. Yeah we have a lot of it.

Second box is for medicines.

Hopefully it will stay organised like this for a longger time.

Hello.

Someone email me asking about what kind of mod podge to use to make glitter phone case like in the video. Well, you guys can use basic mod podge that is matte-mat-mate.

*Please noted that I've stop selling mod podge :) It's just a one shot selling activity only (for fun!).

Okay, this is my version of glitter iPhone case. I use Martha Stewart's acrylic paints with satin finishing, matte-mat-mate mod podge and glitters :)

Happy crafting!

My first baju kurung pahang

This is my first baju kurung pahang

It was different with normal baju kurung that I sew previously.

For the sake of upcoming raya celebration, I sew this cloth without knowing the right technique. I can't wait for the class as it move too slow.

So, next, I need to buy another fabric, cut it and bring it to the class. I really need to master the right technique to sew baju kurung pahang :)

Sewing my own Baju Kurung for Raya :)

I'm quite busy right now. Juggling with house chores, study, socialising and sewing my clothes.

Finally, my baju kurung was done.

On the right side is not mine, it's for my sister :) The first cloth ever made for someone else. Success.

Apart from that, I completed altering my other cloth bought from online store. Gosh, it was big and not flattering at all. I hate it!

ps: thingking of sharing a tutorial to sew baju kurung but...it was so complicated. So, laterrrrrrrrrrrr lah...

New DIY Cushion Cover

Hi,

Finally I manage to sew new cushion covers. Hooray!

Both cushions and fabric were from IKEA Malaysia. I bought the cushions earlier but it seem that they love to attract cat's furs. I was so annoyed with this situation and for that reason, I sew the covers :)

The fabric is Annbeth and it cost RM39.50 per meter.

The cushions is Granat and it cost RM12.90 each. But I think it cost cheaper a few months back.

*with this kind of pattern, 1 meter is enough for two cushion covers*

Following are pictures that summarise the steps to sew the cushion cover :)

1) Measured the cushion and cut the fabric accordingly.

2) I add bias tape at the back side of the cushion cover.

3) Don't forget to seam the fabric.

4) This is how it should look.

5) Ok fine, I need to add button to make it close properly.

6) Done :)

Add beads to make old cloth new

I bought this cardigan long time ago and it already seasoned. But I love it so much :) and it's really comfortable.

To make it different, I sew pearl beads in a scattered patterned on the shoulder part. This project was so easy for everyone. Love it :)

Zipped Laptop Cover

Hello,

My friend asked me to sew her a laptop cover. She prefer a slip on but I think it is better if it was zipped. For a safety measurement and it's more clean :)

I think this tutorial will do :)

Tutorial and original picture by Stitched by Crystal here

Btw, this dude sew his own laptop slip on by himself with the help of his wife. So cool :)

Original pictures and tutorial are from Noktah Hitam here

PS: I'm not sure when can I start the project. As per below picture, I have three more clothes to sew. Maybe I should stop sewing clothes after this for a moment :) Hihihi
