Building a Christmas Tree with recyclables

This is our first year celebrating Xmas at Byob Subang.

One day, my sis  sent me a visual via mms.

No wonder I saw so many green bottles hidden in a box at BYOB.

So she called me few days ago and asked me to go over and help to set up and decorate the tree.

All items used are recyclables material such as PET bottles, boxes, twines, rafia string, rubberbands, tubes cover and styrofoam packing balls.

We rushed off cos the kids need to attend a class. This is how it looks like when we left.

30mins later my sis MMS me again and she added more stuff to te Xmas tree. Yeah, how can we forget the "recycle" stickers?

I must say "great job" to my sister cos to plan this, it need alot of preparation. The PeT bottles were tied together in a formation so that it's steady and holds perfectly. To string the styrofoam Balls is another task. To collect the bottles and also the rest of the items is also another task. And she did it all by herself. Me? I just come to decorate and take picture! *lol* (halo, busy with kids lah....!)

When Mami is working at BYOB

A very common sight if I'm at BYOB with my kids.

But luckily I wasn't the victim when I took this pic. Victim, was my sister.

That's JD under her shirt while she was refilling detergent for the customer. *slap forehead*

And we can't scold him in front of the customers, so we just "tahan".

Another common sight if my kids are there;

Someone would be snoozing vertically or horizontally.

*lol*

BYOB Subang Roadshow : USJ 6

We're so honoured to be invited to join in USJ 6's carnival back on October 6th 2012. The main purpose for the carnival to recruit members for the RA for USJ 6 area.

Before the actual day, my sis and I started to upcycle the pallet that we found across her office. With a jigsaw, sandpaper machine, hammer and some nails, we manage to put this up. Not bad eh? Faster say nice lah...

The day started as early at 7am. Of course I wasn't there at 7am. I gotto wake my kids up and pick up my niece to help me to babysit the kids  for me while I work. Although there are not many booths, but the respond was good considering that it only covers USJ 6.

The residents listening to the VIP's speech.

Hannah Yeoh was there too.

Another VIP.

The BOMBA was there. The POLICE was there also displaying gruesome pics of dead abandoned babies, murder victims and a whole collection of different drugs. I didn't know people use our paper note to inhale drugs too :( 

The stall that sold the most things. Our makan stall :)

And of course, our mini booth.

We had a good day explaining and introducing our products.

Some customer came and told us "Hey.. I have seen your pamphlets before but I threw it away cos I don't know whether your stuff can use or not" And guess what? After we spoke to them, they bought. And they went home and bring more friends over. So now you tell me, can use or not? *lol*

The stall opposite us sell rabbits. Cute cute cuddly rabbits. Arghhhh *geram*

All the participants received free coupons from McD.

And that's my eldest eating nasi lemak with his legs up and one shoes missing *lol*

The BOMBA then invited some residents to demo on how to put off fire.  Justin volunteered but they said he was too short and too small for the safety jacket. :(

The carnival started at 8am and ended at 1pm. Shocked to know that the world is really a small world. One of the committee member is my reader. *shy*

*wave* hello Patsy!

Me and my boys. 

And the babysitter of the day. The girl that I used to take care of when I was in college years. And now she is as tall as me. 

That's our first ever roadshow. Boy! We're dead tired by then. And after that we headed towards BYOB Subang again and continued with our day in the shop. *senget* But honestly it was a good roadshow, good exposure for us and the visitors.

If you have any carnival around Subang area, do contact us and let us join the fun :)
