Im Loving Rachael Ray

Remember the last post of mine regarding my dream home, i was so excited for it cause i know its really me, and I've been waiting for this for such a long time. But last week my contractor called me to reveal the cost of the construction. It was way above my budget. I'm quite disappointed as i am approximately expecting that my budget is quite substantial already for the project. I just think it over for a couple of days and called my contractor afterwards. I honestly told him that the initial cost was out of my budget and i told him my option. I told him if he can work it out based on the budget that i gave and suggested some changes to make the cost a little bit lower. I am still hoping that they will exert an effort to meet my demands though I'm quite frustrated already. But anyway, i still have a little bit of hope that it will push through or if not, will have to change my plans. I'm thinking if i will buy a ready for occupancy house...im still keeping my options o...

 At last, been dreaming of this for so long, i am about to build my dream home. I can say that its not the big house that i wanted it to be but its a modest home for relaxing and for staycation. Im super excited for how it will turn out. I discussed the things that i want and the look that i want to achieve on my contractor. Im super excited to show you the floor plan of the house The first floor has one room meant for the rest of my family. It has a spaceous lanai for entertaining which i requested. The house will be 1.5 meters above ground. The way i also requested it to be. The living room and dining room will be with high ceiling, open plan layout and with a modest kitchen that will be colorful and striking. The second floor is dedicated for the man of the house...ooops, thats me. Yeah, my room will be a loft type. But the contractor added some area which i never expected but which i totally love...a family area. Yes, where we can just hang and play our games. From the family r...

Hey guys, its been a while since I last updated my blog. It seems that im pre occupied with so much video blog these past few days and I totally forgot to make updates on my blog. But here I go again, wanting to write and share what im into right now. Actually, I was inspired by Mylene Dizons house that's why I opt to change the look of my space. I created a mood board so that I will be guided on what I really wanted to achieve. This mini makeover wont need new furnitures since I think I can pull out the inspiration using my existing furniture. What only missing is a low table that can act as a two seater bench and voila, I just happen to find one and its made of narra wood and perfect for what I envisioned. As said, I will be using my existing three seater gallinera chair. Im so inloved with this seat and honestly, this is what I dreamt off. Its so vintage, classic and elegant. And of course wooden sofa wont looked so hard if there are pillows to acc...

Yes, its been so long since I updated this blog. It doesn't mean that I dont have the time but because I'm so up to decorating and stuff and I am not uploading this on my blog. Surprise! A lot has change. I added two aquariums at home, I have a pacu fish in a 75gal aquarium and I have another variety of fish in a 20 gal aquarium. Seems my house is quite a pet friendly one now. Haha. I also managed to own my gallinera three seater sofa which I adore so much. Yeah its my dream to have one. Now I have so many chairs at home, can you believe that. I have four seating areas already and its freaking me out. I need also to updo my decorations, I don't know if I'm still into Asian decorating but I still do want to keep my Buddha accents at home. I think I better start to clean it up, eliminate some and just keep my beautiful accessories so that I will not messed up. Btw, holiday is fast approaching and I don't have an idea on how I will decorate my home. I want it to b...

Hey. Whats up. Ive been dying to tore down that Christmas spirit for no reason at all. Maybe because I know its over and I have to go back to my real world. Its not that I don't want the season, in fact, I cant wait each time. I decorated several months ago, I think way back October and so I have to start to unpacked earlier than most of the people on earth. I don't know but I find myself leaning to blues and green this time. I see that I need to freshen up a bit. I need to start a new, and what a way to start to feel the fresh bloom of the flowers around. I hated faux plant actually, but for some reason, I am starting to loved them. Maybe because I don't have the responsibility of taking care of real plants which I don't know if I still can. Its hard to maintain and heartbreaking to see its dying.  You see I still maintain the look. I also changed the side tables and go for a more minimalistic look. I guess my sofa is so heavy already to look at so I have to ba...

 For this year, i want to go on the traditional colors but not too traditional. Meaning, i don't want overwhelming Christmas vibe but still christmasie. No more Christmas trees. Checkered is the new Christmas for me.  I love the display shelves on the side. It will be the home of my different Christmas accessories. Oh Santa is coming to town on my home. I love how many santa figures are gathered all over. I still made some editing to clean out the look. I added two not too similar side tables. I cant wait for the final Christmas look

I ate twice already in Sizzling Plate in SM Lipa City. The first time we visit the store, I ordered this salad because they don't have enough veggies served on their menu. And when I went back with my friends, I again ordered the same salad plate, their mixed green salad which I liked very much. The sweet cherry tomatoes, the cranberry dressing, the crispy lettuce, its worth a try...
