What happens when you have known someone for more then 10years?
You go to their house…. grab out their ikea drawers….
and buy 2 cans of spray cans…
and you vandalize their property…. 
Oh by the way…. Meet Arzrin…. My partner in crime in this whole process.
Well… Amy recently painted her walls in the living hall and since her birthday was around the corner, I decided that,
what would be a better birthday present then to invade the woman’s home and re-organize and re-decor her apartment.
The most she could do is scream and say….
OMG! My house got broken in and the burglars hated it and decided to re-organize the furniture and re-decor the place.
So…. It all started from this picture which Arzrin took…
So i took the challenge to re-do her living hall. Budget was little but we made it happen. If you ask me….
Budget and decor should really never ever be in the same sentence but I was desperate. #justsayin
Now to amy, all she knows was I was giving her a book rack on her birthday… Got it from ikea… which is relatively cheap. I may get one…. I say… I may…. but here is how the book rack looks like.
See Joycelyn…. I save your ribbon…. I put it on top because I have no idea how to wrap it up. -_-”
Anyway, I assemble the rack cause Amy is hopeless with nuts and bolts but the woman is excellent with screws… Right Amy? 
Errr… Ok!
Well to cut the story short….. After many trips around Mydin, Taipan, cake shop and the balloon shop. We finally set up her place.
Here is a picture of Arzrin with the pink Happy Birthday girl and red heart balloons….
and because Amy has always wanted to be a playboy’s girl…. We just had to live up her fantasy right…. So we got her this…
and yes…. She just turn 16…. We were friends when she was 5 years old…. wtf…. That makes me a pedophile. lol!
So here is the revamp of her living hall.
Entrance Hall….
We found 3 cheap canvas art and place it on her blank wall which use to be her dining area. We position her ottomon there as an additional sitting place and as you can see a simple clean modern clock was place there with her newly black vandalized drawers.
We purchase a wooden tray and place it on top of the drawers and now this place becomes her mini bar where she put her drinks to serve her guest.
Her living hall has turn a 360…. Its been arrange in a way to give an illusion that her living hall is huge. With japanese blinds and lights at the back to give a lighted up silhouette which lights up really awesome in the night. Her dinning table is pushed to the window as you can enjoy the awesome view from the window and her sofa is slightly slanted from the side to get a good view on the tv and the windows.
A long overdue photo frame with her picture which I took from a few years ago which was supposed to be printed from last year birthday present which I never got around to do it. The funny part was collecting her photo from the printers.
Me: I’m here to collect an A4 picture.
Photo Shop Guy: is it…. THE GIRL IN THE GREEN GRASS?
Me: Errr…. Yes…. -___-”
Now for the book rack….We place in behind the couch where she could access all her books and stuff from there. Make an excellent place for her to put her keys too. ^_^
A video to record the expression of her reaction….
Well… Everything was done in the budget of less then RM150 which I may agree was quite challenging but if you know where to find in all the thrift shops, It is possible to furnish your house nicely. You just need to know where to find the cheap stuff and blend it with the expensive stuff.
Happy Birthday AMY! Hope you like your Birthday Pressie!
