shelfie inspo

What I like about Instagram is that I get to see lots of ideas from all over the world. The tags are very helpful. I'm sharing them with you, too.

Have a great Sunday to all!

Reborn

a gift but I can't remember who gave it to me...

I remember late 90's I had this strong liking to anything silver. Even accessories, too. Nauso noon as an alternative to gold. Takaw mata kasi dito. In a third world country, it's considered a suicide wearing them most especially when you take public transpo. Either ma-snatch sa iyo or ma-holdap ka.

Capodimonte

My favorite side trip when I'm in Greenhills is to go around the furniture shops at the second floor. 

Always drawn to anything European when it comes to home interior, I spotted this one quickly and I was right. It is made in Capodimonte, Italy. I'm in love with a decor which costs P55k, brand new. 

French inspired

When I was a young child, my sisters and I would always play bahay-bahayan and lutu-lutuan. Our house back then was a modest bungalow type in one of the suburbs north of Manila. Kaya ang pangarap ko noon yung bahay na may hagdanan. I've always dreamed of having a two storey kind of house. I would always draft my dream house kahit na stick drawing lang on pad papers, coupon bonds or at the back of my notebook.

As a young bride, I think one of my dreams has been fulfilled. We had our own apartment first day we got married. I could decorate my own home na. I get to design it according to my plan. Fan na fan ako ni Rachel Ashwell, the Shabby chic guru. Yes, some may find it girly but I like how she puts everything together. 

Home Improvement 2015

I've been meaning to have this made. We are blessed that we have a skyline to gaze at right where we live. Sunsets used to be awesome here. But the recent constructions of our neighbors' properties vertically made us think of a better way to improve our surroundings. Higit sa view, mas mahalaga sa din sa akin yung privacy. Sabagay, sino ba naman ang may gusto na paggising mo ang makikita mo sampayan ng mga damit? Very unsightly, di ba? At kapag dumungaw naman ang kapitbahay mo kitang-kita ang bakuran mo. Paano na lang kung magwawalis ka at short shorts or pajama ang attire mo? Alangan naman magpalit ka pa ng magandang damit para sa kanila?

Thankful that my husband heeded out my suggestion. It became a reality today.
