Im Home at last!!!

This is what it was last week. Uncontented that i was, i always knew that i still have some things in mind. I wanted it to be homy and not just a display of what i have. So i step back for a while, contemplate and visualize how its gonna be if i made my sofa set as focal point with some flea finds as an added feature. So after a while, i start to move my bigger furnitures and achieved my inspiration! Now, ive seen the beauty of my sofa set! And see how the acquired flea market finds beautify the space. The space with twigs, some table lamps and the indoor plants all contributes to the warmth of the space. The capiz table makes its grandeur with the tea set as accessory. The space now is more inviting and not boring! And now i can say, im home!!!

The Sun after The storm!

So this was my rearranged living room several days ago. For me, it looks like a boring room with a very monochromatic color scheme. This was a drastic change from a cool summer inspired living room to a rainy and sad one. And as noticed, the room is not that vibrant, not lively and uninspired. And i know, i need to add something to make it alive and inspiring even on rainy months. And as promised, these plants will be incorporated for a more lively space. I decided to put some cacti this time. I dont know but maybe i was inspired by one of the articles in a magazine to try cactus as houseplants due to its easy adaptation and growing. So this is the finished product of my new living room. As noticed, i also changed the pillow case this time and put in a metallic gray and im glad it worked! I also removed all the faux plants and use the real plants. Native bean bags are also set aside to reveal the nice capiz cofee table. I removed all the things above the cofee table and put it undernea

Liven It Up with Plants

My previous blog describes my abode as monochomatic flea market finds that highlights the wood elements on my living room. And personally, i describe the room as dull and a little bit sad. Maybe because of what im going through personally. And as i gazed on it this morning, i found that something is missing, that i have to put something on it to make it more appealing and not so boring...I have to add real plants!!! Last summer, i blog about the tremendous change that comes with some rearangement and color splash through inexpensive accessories, now i will give you a makeover with the addition of plants, yes, bringing the outdoors in our own room! So get away with artificial plants and embrace the coolness and the life that a real plant can bring. Of course, this goes with the before and after pics so i cant wait for tommorrow! So here's a sneak peak of whats in there!

Seasons change and so am I...

So this was the summer look of my abode. Since its starting to rain and the season has change, i need to update the look to fit in the rainy months. So this is my abode now. Honestly im still missing the summer look but now i have to rearrange my things as not to be boring. I call this now, the flea market look. As the name calls, the look now highlights some of my flea market finds. Actually my mother is loving the new look. I made the side of my wall busier by putting the two single sofa and my narra chest. Now i made the wood as the center of it all and not the comfty sofa. Monochromatic as it is, i injected a few colors like green, orange and red. I am loving the two different table lamps especially when lighted at night. I removed the wooden side tables as not overpower the look. I dont know but im sporting a brown color scheme these days. Maybe due to some complications on my personal life. But eventhen, changing the look every month is a bright way to enlighten my spirit. And i

That Wooden Thing!!!

These four options are all very cute. I love the design and the simplicity of the craftmanship. The white and the beige one is perfect for a tropical theme living room while the other two with bold colored pillows are perfect for an asian house. Well, wouldnt it be nice to just lay down on this while reading or listening to music in your lanai's? Or just merely hangout with your friends enjoying a lazy sunday afternoon. Wouldnt it be nice to just sit here just texting my friends after a days work? Or sit in a cozy and comfty sofa for a very warm family conversation... Whatever it brings, it gives color to our home, as a conversational piece or an accent! It invites more talking and listening while taking advantage of a nice view of a garden Or for a bachelor to just sit down, relax and enjoy the dvd marathon... Whatever your purpose is, a nice sofa is the best thing to have. And who would not love to have a wooden sofa!!!
