IKEA CATALOGUE

Just received my IKEA catalogue 2013! It's time to go for my IKEA fix soon!

James' Coriander

Jairus' Coriander

To reinforce what my son is learning at school, we planted Coriander seeds and ginger in pots. My boys and I take turns in watering them and they were so happy and amazed when the Coriander seeds started to sprout. The ginger is growing fast too. We have also planted some mint but will post about it later on.

                                                                                                            



Mum's Ginger



Coffee Table

A coffee table I inherited from my sis-in-law just had a make-over on Friday night. 
I used some wall paper decoupage bought from SPOTLIGHT which was so easy to use.

With the help of my in-house handyman and ever helpful hubby, he applied shellac on it and gave it a new look.


I pre-orered the glass top which arrived the following afternoon and VOILA!  Here's my new coffee table!

Mini Garden

This is my younger son, Jairus' school project.
They are learning about plants and how it gives us food and fresh air.
It is made of 100% recycled things.  We used Saga seeds which I collected from my workplace, Lego pieces and creepy crawly toys that we have at home, a cardboard, dried leaves and plastic ones that were already old and brittle, and some plastacine we found in the toy box.

Our 6 Year Old Cactus

    I didn't know cactuses can grow flowers and so I was so amazed to see this!

    Hubby got this as a souvenier from one of the events he went to 6 years ago.  We took care of it and placed it outside the house where it gets enough sunshine during the day.                   

    In October 2011, we sold our flat and had to temporarily stay at my sis-in-law's place, so we brought our plants to our workplace and had a kind brother help us take care of them.  We have brought back some to our new place but this cactus somehow hasn't.  I guess with lots of care, fresh air and sunlight it bloomed....
