DIY Home Improvement

This is where the blue and the yellow meet on my living and dining room. Weve been loving the color for several days now. Maybe its the researching on the right color palette, thinking of the current accessories at home or my current style which leads me to my chosen color scheme. I never thought that it will end up that way. I just confirmed that i chose the right one when i saw my old purchased rug with the same color scheme.

Yesterday, my niece bought a nice pair of slipper and i was surprised. The colors are there, blue, yellow and green, with same color as my wall!

I am not boasting that the color is a perfect choice, theres still a lot of colors to choose from and maybe those colors are the most suited one for me. In fact, i believe the choosing colors depend on each personal style. Some colors will work for some, others will not. But i think, i made the right combination. I might be justifying the scheme because its already there, painted on my wall but im seeing those colors everywhere. I thought its so unique but im seeing those colors everywhere i go.

The other day, i saw throw pillow cases and i couldnt control myself so i bought another set again. This time, i chose different tones of blue and yellow to match. Im so excited to try it and see the outcome.

My life has been so exciting since i embrace the habit of "DIY" home improvement. It releases the stress and makes me so excited to come home and continuously seek things to improve. I know my family likes our house now than before. And i know this habit will grow until i find the perfect look on my small space.

But i always believe that theres no such thing as perfection. We will continuously improve and make things better, just like my home sweet home.

Make Me Home No.4

Welcome to Make me Home edition 4. Weve been doing the dining, living and kitchen already and i guess its proper to feature a bedroom as well. This time, i want to feature a bedroom which is so typical to a filipino setting where the bedroom is shared by siblings. It is a common fact that due to limited space and budget, room sharing is an option to a modest family. Though privacy may be a little bit of a problem when sharing a space, intimacy and healthy relationships can be strengthen by sharing a room with someone who are dear to us. This room may be bit of a challenge for me. When i saw the room, i thought, a bed with a pull out will definitely solve the small space problem. But, its kinda ackward for someone to sleep on the pull out right? In fact, sleeping in a pull out is just an option for a sleep overs. It will be greater and even righteous to give a bed to everyone so they can have a space of their own. So i envisioned a "chic retreat style" for this bedroo

The L shaped Sofa

An L shape sofa is a sofa that is literally designed in the shape of an L. It is designed like this for a number of reasons, and is a great choice for many different kinds of living rooms. Many people are buying L shaped sofas these days, in fact, for all of the benefits they offer. So, in case you have not been able to witness these benefits firsthand, here they are! First and foremost, an L shape sofa gives you more actual sitting room than does a regular sofa. Why? Well, because there is simply more of it to sit on! There is the main section (much like a normal couch), then, there is the elbow (a very relaxing spot to sit, I might add..), and the rest of the L on the end...which is usually the size of at least a small loveseat. And since there is so much room on these pieces to sit, you can fit a lot more people onto an L shaped sofa like this than you could on a regular sofa. The next benefit that an L shape sofa gives us is the benefit of being more affordable. Now, at this, you

La Residencia Almar...my home in Dumaguete

This is La Residencia Almar in Dumaguete City where i stayed for six nights. Actually, this is my second time to stay in this hotel because i was here last year. I opted to stay again in this hotel because i love the view in its front and it is smaller than the usual hotel located in Dumaguete. In front of the hotel is the famous Dumaguete Boulevard where a lot of people, local and tourist gather every morning and at night to see the majestic view of the sea. But what makes me desire to stay once again is tits beautiful interior, a Balinese theme which i always love in every home. The nice lighting fixture greeted me as I enter the hotel. This is spectacular especially at night. I love the simple but colorful detail at the base of the chandelier. The nuetral paint, with mostly beige, white and brown accentuated by several niches where an old jars are kept in display, trimmings and wooden pieces makes me think that I am in an old world retreat but never forgetting the asian herit
