Recycle: Plastic water bottle n Paper

I was busy during Eid... visiting houses and just being lazy after a month of fasting! :)
Anyway its over now and I am back to doing my favourite recycling projects! Actually I recycled the plastic bottle 2-3 months back and made the paper flowers (Rose) during the Ramadan month but didn't take pictures until yesterday! hehe :D

Turned a 500ml coca-cola bottle into a small vase (i got the instructions from wikihow)

the rose looked pretty awesome in the website where I got the instructions from because the creator used music sheets for the rose and I used an old assignment paper to try it and it turned out pretty kool :D 




I kept it as my special flower and made the rest our of some old fliers! ^^



the end product...mega recycle flower n flower vase! :P and for the first time my mom actually thought this recycle project is nice 'cause she likes how the flowers turned out! *feels more proud*

Picture of the Day

My fave Plushies

Recycle: Jewellery Box

Yayee my fave time pass...recycling stuff! like i follow "Reuse, Reduce, Recycle!"
This time I have recycled a cellphone box into a jewellery box.
The box was pretty awesome itself. first it was full black in colour so less work for me i didnt have to colour it..and the most helpful part...it had magnets and opened as a..amm i donno..different way than the usual boxes..something like this...

and it also had 2 compartments one smaller than the other so i used the big compartment for storing my bracelets and the small one for rings :D

I decorated it with some old bangles and sequins, a huge stone i took out from an old dress, a broken butterfly shaped punch clip and some colourful ribbon. herez how the finish product looks :P

Origami: Bookmark

I was reading Petricia Cornwell's novel "From Potter's Field" and the my previous bookmark was making a fuss. it flew under my bed and i was looking all over for it (though i found it later) but i still decided to make another one which i can tuck on my book even when im reading it. and i was in luck...i was searching for orgami bookmark and i came across this website, called origami resource center, which has a collection of bookmarks from a lot of websites. pretty cool. and i wanted to make the panda bookmark [(by R. Diaz) sorry i didn't want to link to it coz its in youtube!]..but it looked more like a raccoon!lol but the folding was pretty easy. then i tried the homepage (by Sy Chen) one but it turned out horrible...looks more like a boat so i settled for mark of love (by Jasiah Hills) my previous bookmark was also a heart and reading is something i 'heart' and thats how i show my mark of love to it.lol!

the left one is my old bookmark...and the new one is in pink! yah pink! :S i don't have black paper!!! :(

and i made the new one small coz i love all stuff small!!!<3<3<3
heres how it looks on the book ^^




oh interesting thing i noticed in that "Origami Resource Center"--they even have Toilet Paper Origami LOL!!! "Fold Toilet Paper while still on the Roll" lol probably some toilet cleaner who was so obsessed with origami did his time pass during work by origami-ing the toilet papers 'while still on the roll' yeah awesomeee!!!! LOL maybe i will give it a try ;P
