DIY Home Deco

The day's project - to tile this pathway.

The day before, Sony recycled leftover tiles into 2inchx2inch pieces which were then sorted by colour.

The kids observing their Dad mix cement, sand and water

Stirring the mixture

First step, use a trowel to slather a layer of cement

Placing the tiles onto the cement and then fill in the gaps with more cement.

The boys helped me with the curtain rails.

Fai inserted the gliders.

Ean thought the rails were just like train tracks.

He happily pushed the gliders up and down the rails."Choo-choo!"

Ipoh in a day 23rdApril2011

Dear Hubby had to go to Ipoh for work, me and my younger two tagged along.

My hubby's work schedule was hectic that day....two appointments in Ipoh then to Batu caves and Shah Alam - all in a day. Phew!

While waiting for him, the boys and I spent the morning in Polo Ground.

Then to KHao's home and the boys got to play with his homemade excavator.

An interesting design made from pipes and cable casing. The words ' KHao Construction' was printed by the side. His future is clearly mapped out for him.

KHao could make the arms of the excavator move just like a real one. Ean tried it out. Looks like he needs more practice.

I was very impressed with this DIY toy. I think I will send Ean's push car to Ipoh to get it modified.
