Lolipop for kiddies

I got the idea to give lolipop for kids from here. She bought it in a kedai borong makanan ringan di Rawang, dem cheap. 15 cent per loli! And paling aku suka memang sgt chomel the designs and they are so colourful. Budak-budak kompem lagi suka. ;) Tapi berkali-kali juga pk am i going all the way to Rawang to buy this? erkk jauh la Rawang itu. Selayang rumah encik tunang pun aku dah rasa jauh ini kan Rawang..huhu

Nak dijadikan rezeki aidiladha, last week kan cuti hari raya haji, maka ke kampung ibuku lah aku pulang. My auntie nak beli some sweets and candy for her son's wedding at a kedai borong makanan runcit, and bila Mama dearie saja ikot and tengok-tengok rupa-rupanya kedai ni pun ada jual the lolipop! wheeee~~ ;) And all this while pegi bazaar ramadhan tak perasan pun ada kedai borong makanan runcit dkat situ. Even aku pnah park betul-betul depan kedai tu before this!

Cuma design agak limited la, hanya star dan bulat dan price nya mahal skettt. 50 batang utk RM8. Maka jatuh 16 cent. Bila tengok label nya, nak tengok ingredient tapi tertengok distributor nya dan rupa-rupanya Seri Kembangan mariii..hahahahha..tu pekan umah aku tuu..ni kat Serdang ni. hahahaha.. Patut la dia charge lebih. Kos tol dan minyak ke Parit Buntar, Perak! Takpe la, sebab malas dah nak pk dan terlalu berkira maka kami pun beli lah 200 batang. ;)


So here they are, bentuk bulat dan bintang



Close ups



Tapi kan aku rasa most kedai borong makanan runcit ada la jual lolipop ni. Yang aku tau, dkat KL Jalan h.s. lee ada beberapa kedai-kedai ini. Yang tak suka drive ke KL, boleh amek lrt dan turun di masjid jamek. Dah dekat dah tu.

Tag Terima Kasih

Tag terima kasihku sudah siap. Yeyy..now in the mist of 'menempek' those tags to the bekas. Semalam dah selesai menempek dalam 900 bekas (theres 400 bekas to go! chaiyo chaiyoo~). Mama dearie, lil sis and cousin Padil tolong. Terima kasih yaaa.. :)

Well actually i wanted to order the tags from Jentayu Design. Their designs are beautiful and price are also ok. But unfortunately they only have them in minimum size 1.5 inch. Saya mahu 1 inch lah. Kang keluar paksi pulak tag terima kasihku..huhu. So i've decided to just edit one of the design they have with only using Paint. Yes guys..u dun really need those fancy software to do it, just a simple Window's tool will do. Walaupun aku ni orang IT, tapi terasa leceh nak install and then relearn tools yang hebat2 tu. Alaa lagi pun nak edit benda simple je kan.

So ini adalah design tag terima kasih ku, cantik kan?? ;)

Tapi design bunga tu memang bukan aku yang buat yaa.. Harap mereka tidak marah kerana aku guna design mereka buat bekas door gift ku. ;b

Anyway ini pulak the original design. Aku tambah word 'Terima Kasih', tambah border, tuka kaler nama untuk ikot theme, tukar position tarikh ke bawah dan ubah skettt posisi bunga yang di bawah tu. Nampak cam simple je penukaran tu, tapi alahai agak leceh gak la.

Design asal

Well byk lagi design yg cantik-cantik. Sayang je xleh wat size yg aku nak. Tapi ok la gak, sekurang-kurangnya banyak aku berjimat dengan buat sendiri tag-tag ini. Aku guna kertas putih yang sederhana tebal(140gsm), which satu A4 tu boleh dapat 70 keping tag. Sekeping A4, 10 sen dan aku kira aku guna dalam 30% ink colour printer. Maka bila dikira-kira termasuk price ink, satu tag terima kasih ku hanya lah RM0.02! hehehehe..jimatnyaa. Kalau order satu 20 sen, tapi aku wat senirik 2 sen ja. Tapiiiii..please take note, kertas biase yaa bukan matte laminate or glossy or wat so ever kertas yg bermutu itu. Ala xpela, janji boleh jimat. ;)

A Super Duper Productive Week!

1. Catering - Checked!

We went for a food testing in kayu ara damansara sabtu lepas lepas. And bcoz the super iritating strimik buat hal that day, i didn't do my usual wikimapia search before going to an unfamiliar place. I just got the caterer's map which is erkk not helpful at all... thus we got sesat! huhu

From the map it says take the exit 23 on the Sprint highway, and all this while i thot that from Kerinci Link you can get to sprint highway..tapi dah sampai hujung kerinchi Link tak jumpa punn..uhhhh did i miss any turning?? Erhhh tension btol. Lil sis pulak not helping. Last sampai area one utama aku dah pening pala..waaa mana exit 23 sprint highway ni wehh?? But thankfully the caterer help us with the direction. Sampai pun!

Anyway I like their place. They have their own lot building and the presentation of the food testing was very clean n nice. Food was also reasonably good, except ayam dia a bit too pedas for me, takpa ini boleh direquest. Byk gak jenis boleh rasa sbb ada 2 kenduri that day. Price wise pulak setakat yang kami tau, sgt la murah! Dah la byk free item dia kasik tau. Mana nk dapat RM10.50 with 8 arabic canopy, hidangan pengantin with hiasan meja pengantin n backdrop, 4 dome for the VIPS, kek 3 tingkat and also the penanggah. Very good deal tau! Furthermore the contact person is so very helpful and pleasant. Any enquiries i just ym her ;) Mama dearie is so very relief, coz the most important thing dah settle. Alhamdulillah..just hope everything goes well nanti. Amin...

psstt..kalau nk info on the caterer, buzz me ;)


2. Tempah Baju nikah & Baju hantaran from FMIL - Checked!

That weekend also i went to see our usual tailor. Gave her my design for nikah outfit, the only problem on this is the beading where she always send to is too dem expensive..Hampir RM300 babe! Waduhh kopak akuu..So skarang aku tengah mencari beader yg charge lebih reasonable..Anyone has their contact number???

As for the baju for this kain, initially i was just intended for it to be a kurung moden, but when maria our tailor kira rupanya the kain is 5 meter. Maka the balance of the kain will be made as the top part of baju kebaya pendek whichhhh~ can be weared with the kurung modern's kain or even jeans..uh uhh i suka i suka!


3. Tempah Kad Kahwin - Half Checked coz kad nya belom depan mata lagik..huhu

We've chosen the design and already send the layout kad. Early november will follow up with them on the final layout for printing..End of November br leh collect the card. Erghh..lambat lagi..once dapat je kad kena la cepat-cepat tulis and send out for mr postman to deliver.


4. Sewa Baju Sanding for both side - Wuhuuu Checked!

On last saturday went to see julie (my side wedding boutique) to choose and try out the baju..As im gonna wear all white, seb ada baju putih baru buat..fuhh tak yah tempah..tidak kena add on money. The dress is simple and sweet tapi paling i suka bout this dress is the veil to go with it.. The only thing is the top part is lace and ohh so revealing. Encik tunang mmg dah kasi warning about this awal-awal dulu lagi.."no revealing dress please..i dun want awal-awal dah tanggung ur dosa." Erghh..tolong la i pun tamau sexy gitu. tak sesuai i bertudung okk.. So am going to have to find an inner baju for this and also a white tudung. Ke Jalan TAR la weekend ni yee. As for encik tunang's attire, dia dapat baju baru sbb takde size but with no charge la. ;)

As for baju bertandang, we went for a hunt in bangi. Sgt banyak butik-butik di bangi ni ok. Mr tunang jadi drebar n i turun and ask for the price. Kalau within our budget baru mr tunang turun keta. Tidak buang masa la dua-dua turun..i kering je masuk butik terus tanya sewa baju..hoho..tapi most sewa is RM700 an above. Mahalnyaaa! Honestly i almost gave up the search that evening.

But on our last stop, we both tetiba nak turun and tengok. Masuk butik tu tgk uih ramainye org, baju pun looks up to date n the owner look so stylish. Dlm hati rasa mcm mahal je butik ni..tapi once i ask the sewa, its only RM550! yeyyyy~ and they have bajus in dark red! wuhuuuuuuuuu~~

Seriously it was so dem easy and fast.. I masuk trus tanya sewa baju and bgtau our theme, then SA dia ckp ada baju baru tgh buat. Tak fully siap lagi, dia kata nak tambah manik lagi ni. I tengok oh cantek cantek dark red with gold lace and just like i want, something jubah-ish. Then i tanya guy's nya baju mcm mana pulak? And the owner tunjuk the baju, its a 3 suit blazer with songket border..ohhh suka2.. Although the baju tak fully siap lagi pun i trus booking! I rasa smua org dlm butik pun kagum tgk begitu senangnya bride ni! hehehehehehehe


5. Doorgift for guest and VIPS - Double checked..sgt puas hati! ;)

Mama dearie wants to add another 300 bekas for the doorgift. Maka we shot off to Nilai 3 yesterday morning. A bit worry what if the bekas all sold out?? Fortunately ada satu kedai clearing off those bekas..fuhh mmg last kopek betul laaa..murah by 10cent per bekas from the original price.(i think) Beside dat we got a really nice bedside table lamp for free..hehe

Oh yaa bakul for the VIPS osso sudah settle. Ini lah dia gamba bakul yg togel tanpa deconya lagikk ;)



Good deal betul. Be a member at ZC for RM10 a year, and you'll get a very good price of selected items. The bakul we've bought tu the original price is RM3.40 and mana-mana kedai pun jual almost the same price. But for ZC's member they're selling it at RM1.40 only!! 2ringgit off walawehhh~..hehehehehe. Super jimat! If smaller size sila tolak 20kupang yaa(dat is 20cent).. Anyway they opened a new ZC outlet yg sgt besar, almost big as Thank Q tapi a bit tesorok sket laa..their wedding stuffs and flowers are up to date.. especially their deco. Lawa-lawa laa..seb duit agak limited, tidak aku angkut dah a few bunga-bunga and decos! ;b

As for the deco for the bakul pun sudah dibeli. SA di one of the kedai(erkk i forgot the name of the shop!) is soooo helpful, dia nmpk kami tgh cari bunga utk tempek ke bakul tu, n i said kecik2 sgt bunga ni..then dia suggest letak riben blakang bunga kecik tuu..wahh sungguh good idea dan jimat!! ;b

Arini riben2 sudah habis dipotong, sekarang tengah mempusing2 kan riben cam dia ajar by the SA..once finish nak lekat the bunga to the riben pulak..thenn baru lekat to the bakul. Fuhh seb VIP doorgift jek, mampus aku if its the guest door gift! 1300 bekas babeee!

Lega ini pun sudah half settle. Tinggal barang dlm je. Mama dearie nk letak the guest's bekas telur, cookies and chocolate which she will personally made herself (ibu sy mmg kerjanya wat coklat tau! heh)


6. HIV Test - Alahaii of coz la both of us are non-reactive! Kami tidak melakukan sebarang aktiviti berisiko yaa.. ;)

So lucky mr fiance's fren(kawan kepada kawan sbnrnya) working at Klinik Kesihatan Jinjang. Thats why u need networking people..heh. A week early already made appointment with dat guy and bila sampai je tak payah pun beratur panjang utk amek nombor dan borang. Semua dia dah ready utk kami. hehe. So everything was smooth dan senang. Thank god! ..hihihi..

Dan rupanya the test valid for 6 month, ingatkan 3 bulan.. Apa-apa pun sungguh lega, now we can start working on the borang. Tok kadi dah ckp bile dah settle borang laki, leh la jumpa dia. Oh ya mama dearie osso sudah jumpa tok kadi, maka sudah book time n date for the nikah. 1 Jan 2010 ya peeps..mark your calender!


Perghhhhhh panjangnya entry ni..haha told you im going to go all out before end of this month! Banyak gle dh settle babes and im super duper lega! Wheeeeeeee~~~ \(^o^)/

Mana nak cari styrofoam ball ekk?

Progress a bit slow this week. Well actually there are NONE. hoho. I wanted to start doing the tagging for the doorgift, but checked and confirmed dat the printer which i stored under my bed is not working, haiyoo..sudah kong plak. Kena la beli baru..huhu. But luckily my lil sis wanna share the cost as she's also wanting to use the printer later. So might be shopping for a printer soon. Kenapa tak p beli kat PC fair jek?? Sbb aku malas nk kuar, smlm pun dah stuck in the horrible jem caused by this, (tu pun aku lari masuk smart tunnel which was also jem altho its weekend!) Hence today i'm so lazy to drive all the way to KLCC. Oh Sunday, i luv my Sunday. Masa utk bergolek2 di atas katil sambil main Mafia Wars di facebook! hoohohoohho

Oh ye encik tunang nanti kite p shopping printer plak eh? :)

Then i osso sooo wanted to start doing the pomander ball, but most of the wedding shop i went does not have the styrofoam ball. Darn..i dun want to go all the way to Romantika, Plaza Alam Sentral! Jauh lah. (knew this from here and here..sila baca, sgt byk info for DIY pomander!) I've also found some more link for this, but will share once i got all the stuff ready first. ;)

Ohh ada siapa tahu Romantika kat Ampang ada tak jual this styrofoam ball ekk?? Ampang dkat sket..

chanteknyaa....

Things I bought in Nilai 3

Bekas for door gift - checked!

Yeyy~ im fully satisfied with the bekas. Penat btol pusing-pusing nilai 3 tadi. Actually benda lain yg dicari tapi benda lain pulak yang berkenan di hati. Hehehehhehe. Tak jadi beli the initial bekas that i was looking for. 1st reason price are almost the same RM1 per piece, 2nd reason the choices of colours are more (i bought purple, turqoise, yellow, green, brown, red n black), 3rd reason n its the most important thing, I dun need to deco the bekas sbb mmg dh chantekk! So tak jadi la nk wat camni (sila klik for detail).

Tapi maybe just for the VIPs, i think i'll need to put a ribbon. Bagi nampak spesel sket. 42 pieces je, skett so xla penat. Dah beli pun the ribbon, payah gak nk cari this design. Tak byk kedai jual, most probably dh habis stok kot. I got it for RM2.50. Panjang mana? Aku pun xsure, dia xtulis. Belasah je beli sbb cam murah jek. Heh..




Nway 40 are for his side n the other 2 for the pengapits. Ada lagi nk kasi for VIPs ni. Bakul for the VIPs pun baru disurvey tadi. Might put 3 items in the bakul. Maka kena la p nilai 3 lg nanti.. Alaa its like 20-30 minutes from home plus no traffic jam. Thats why we dun mind going there.....errr every week(?!) hahahaha..tak kose aku nk p tiap-tiap minggu, panas laa nilai 3 tuu..!

Haaa..aku nk tunjuk u girls one thing i bought there.. a comforter set dat includes of coz the comforter also known as quilt, 1 queen size bedsheet, 4 pillow cover(ye EMPAT!) and 1 boster cover. Yang tak tahan tu is the design. Chantek kan??! Design LV gituu~.. sangat suka!! ;b




Oh yaa berapa ye utk set comforter ini??? Cuba lah teka....



jeng jeng jeng.......

..

..

..

..

..


RM38 SAHAJA!! hehehehehheheh..tapi kena tutup sebelah mata laa, jahitan comforter dia kureng skettt. haha wat do u expect for such a cheap price?!

p/s : sori aku xletak gamba bekas tu. Bagi surprise skett..hihi.

Door Gift

Aku mc harini..demam dan sakit tekak. Badan dah kebah dan boring asek tdo jek. Terasa nk blogging plak..hehehe. Topic for today is door gift.

Pening pale dok pk nk wat ape utk doorgift. Pk bajet lagik..tu pun seb baik mama dearie kate dia nk tolong sapot skali. huhu..lap u mama..siapakah diriku tanpa ibu terchenta..hihihihi

Anyway idea asal aku nk carik kotak macam ni, plain n simple. Plus suka sgt the ribbon and the sticker tagging!





sources i think from here and here


Tapi after doing some price hunting, mahal rupanya kotak putih ni??! Its like impossible to get below RM1 a box. Ntah apa2 ntah, kotak plain je tapi mahal tol. Aku pun xpaham......

Then when i saw my couz beli bekas for his wedding door gift, baru i realized baik beli bekas yg at least org leh simpan n guna. Kotak plain camni mesti org campak je balik dari wedding aku kan?? huhuhu. So now im looking for a nice bekas for my wedding doorgift. Tapi ribbon camni tetap nk letak. Suka sgt sbb nmpk modern! ;) Tapi nk ikat the ribbon on top je..tanak the whole bekas.

Couz ckp dia nmpk the bekas im looking for in nilai 3..RM1 sebekas. Tu pun tak menhunt lagi. Entah ada kedai yg offer lebih murah. Seposen dua posen murah pun jadi la. Nak beli mungkin 700 ke 1000. Wahh banyaknyaa! Kalau camni kena stat membeli dah. Gile byk bekas aku kena ikat ribbon and then letak tagging. Tagging pulak ntah ikot hati cam nak design n print senirik jek..huhu larat kah daku???!

Anyway i've found a website where u can download free template, tagging and lots more of dyi stuff.. sgt cantek2! Here are some of the free stuff:

gift box template, download for free here


Invitation design template, here


Printable monogram label, here


Sangat suka this one. I might use this myself for my nikah invitation. Design and template lengkap. Just enter the detail n print! Korang aku book template ni dulu tauu! hehehehe


Ok..slamat tgk2..aku pun pening pale byk sgt freebies. xabis pun tgk lagik! ;)

Door Gift & Hantaran Cupcake Part 3

2 things done today..reconfirm on order for the door gift and the hantaran cupcake. Suka nya hati saya kedua-duanya dah settle! ;)

We ordered quite a big amount of mini muffin or is it cupcake?? Ntah la I am confuse which is which..i think there are mini cupcakes but the girl i contacted keep on saying 'akak nak muffin tu bile?' 'akak kalau sy tambah sket utk cost transportation muffin tu bleh tak?' 'akak, tak payah la bayar deposit utk muffin tu, xpe nanti time makcik akak collect muffin2 tu baru bayar eh'....

Em..tak pe la i ikot saja si penjual nye defination..heh.. Anyway we ordered the mini muffin all the way from Penang, or should i say Kedah? The very sweet girl i contacted is a student in USM Penang and she is doing the dealing/business. Her sister whos in Kedah is doing the baking. We've bought their mini muffin once during my sis's convo in USM last year. Its dem cheap! Imagine 100 pieces of assorted colour and flavour mini muffins are only RM13!! Cheap aite?? Tu pun the girl said I'm the last customer she's charging RM0.13 per piece. Now its already RM0.15. hehe..Alhamdulillah lucky me.

We're going to give them in a box of 4 mini muffin to the guest on the engagement day... Oh and mummy dearest kate nanti dia nak tepek cam heart shape sugar deco atas tiap2 mini muffin tu. Xpe askar ramai, nanti cousin2 ku akan menjadi mangsa utk menepek2 dan membox kan the mini muffin! Itu la gunanya sedara mara kan?? Lagipun bantu membantukan amalan mulia..banyak pahalanya. hehehehehehe.. ;b

And on the hantaran cupcake. Yeyyy, at last i have confirmed and also made the payment! These are also gonna be in mini sizes as there are so adorably cute. I've ordered 49 pieces of mini choc cuppies with buttercream topping and they are also so cheap! Its only gonna cost me(my sis actually..heh) RM55 only! Tak sabar to pick it up nanti..hehe..

Anyway the mini cuppies are ordered from here. For the mini muffin though, sorry no site. I only have their contact no. Email me if u wish for their no.
