Charming Headboard.

This is a really charming headboard, isn’t it? And I want one!

This is just one of the reasons why I frequent Pinterest. There are just so many eye candies and ideas you can learn. For my future home, I think I want to have a similar bed, only I would probably have it painted white or pink even!

How about this activity bucket? I initially thought of getting a big bag organizer to hold my son’s art supplies, but they are just so many, I won’t be able to fit all of them in the organizer. Maybe this bucket will do!

I am once again inspired to organize. I am thinking of using DH’s cufflink boxes to hold pieces of jewelry instead. So many ideas, I need the energy to tackle our closet.

Enjoy The Little Things.

Boxing Week.

I keep coming across wall posts on Boxing Week sales from friends abroad. So off I went to Wikipedia and here’s what I got: Boxing Week is a period of six days or more that starts with Boxing Day and ends with New Year’s Eve. It may also include a few days before Christmas and/or after New Year’s Day. It is not strictly a week. It is a term that was invented by the retail industry a few years ago (at least in Canada) to enable them to extend (hopefully) the Boxing Day sales frenzy. For someone who loves sales, I am so glad that I can take advantage of the great deals even if I live at the other side of the world. All thanks to online shopping!

Cute!

Too Much Shopping.

I have been shopping a little too much these days. Blame it on the sales. It’s official, January is my favorite month to shop. Just about every mall is having its end of season sale. And I couldn’t be happier. Good thing I didn’t shop a thing for myself last Christmas, I can shop now without any guilt. DH is having his share of the fun as well as he got to score great deals on material handling and other guy stuff. Anyway, I think I’ve done enough shopping already,I need to make some space for my loots. Time to organize the closet.

Spring 2012 Trend: Oranges and Tangerines.

Pantone Institute shared its prediction for the most popular colors of spring 2012, and it was spot-on: The pick for spring’s numero uno shade, Tangerine Tango, was all over the runways. And if tangerine isn’t your citrus of choice, there are plenty more orange hues to choose from.

Hello 2012!

Time flies. Welcomed the New Year with my two blogs down due to virus/malware. I just didn’t have the heart to bother a friend’s vacation, who is generously hosting my sites for free, to inform her of the problem. And now that the holidays are over, I hope we can have the issue resolved.

On the other hand, we welcomed the New Year with a new blog for the itty-bitty photography gig that we are putting up. We are still in the polishing stage and we need to write more posts for it. Anyway we are not in full blast mode just yet, as DH still has his full-time work and we believe that we still need to develop what little skills we have. Plus there are still duties and responsibilities that need our attention. But nevertheless, rest assured that we give our whole heart to our work even if it is just a side job. Simply because we love what we do and it makes us happy.

The decluttering and organization has been put on hold though. Helper’s on vacation and I just couldn’t find the time to do everything that I want. I would have wanted to try and wear our wedding bands again {I had to stop wearing them when I grew big as they won’t fit my fingers.}, but I didn’t have the energy to go through my things to look for them. I have so many to-do’s. I need and will make time for them soon.

Christmas Morning.

This toy is for the younger kids actually. But DS just loves Sesame Street to bits and this was one of his wishes for Christmas.
