Let in!

My husband and I have finally liked a house to move in for the time being before we decide on THE property to buy. As our priority was to find a place near a good primary school for our son, I can say this rental place is just the right Hive to b in. :-D

Living Room

I've tried to give a sophisticated look in the living room by choosing dark coloured upholstery and blinds. The shimmery olive green wallpaper as you can see in the first picture gives an instant impact. To balance the tones, i've chosen light green and cream glossy tiles from Wickes.

Random

An Abstract painting which is the only feature apart from the window on one of the walls in our living room. The shade does help to enhance the painting.

Thought of the day!

The way we style or decorate our house, portray our personality and it is a reflection of who we are. It all says a lot about our background, our interests and attitude towards life. :)

Re location!

I took a one year break since I started my blog due to work commitments.

Since me and my family are re locating to a bigger city, all I have been thinking of is houses, interiors, colour combos, curtains, blinds, crockery and Ceramic painting! I've never painted on Ceramics but all of a sudden I have this urge to learn how to paint on Ceramic crockery. Most of us have lots and lots of ideas and dreams which we want in our homes but not many of us have the time and energy to put in. The good part is I won't be working for a good 4 months atleast after we move which would hopefully give me the time to concentrate on my new home. :-) As of now, I'm dreaming on!! :-)
Will upload some of the interiors of my current home as memories :(

Wallpaper

Wallpaper on your wall will add more drama to your room or hallway. Especially the Vertical ones as seen in the pic (Indo-Chin bought from a wallpaper store in Swansea)will give more height to the wall. Big bold prints which grow upwards also does the same job. Lighting plays an important role as well to enhance the look. If the wall is facing a window which gives direct sunlight or even spotlights can give it a classy look.

Washable printed wallpapers are suitable for all interiors, including well-ventilated kitchens and bathrooms.Vinyl wallpapers can be easily washed with a damp cloth. www.wallpapercentral.co.uk have a wide range of pretty looking wallpapers.

Colour of the Season

YELLOW! Yes! Its our beloved Sun's colour which is 'in' this season. I couldn't be happier when I heard from a dear friend who lives in Dubai that the people there are walking around in Malls wearing Yellow sandals. I've got this picture in my head of painting my son's future room in Yellow. Not the bright shocking one but the mild soft yellow. If it is one wall of soft yellow then the other wall can be Lime Green if you like.
