bring on the festivities...

It's that time of the year again. A certain festive anticipation takes hold of me.

Mr. Sun decides to illuminate certain corners with his geometrical rays. Love that fragrance of a season in transition. A season of festivals.


The festive season propels me towards adding that little extra which transforms the home and gets you ready for new events, happy changes and cheerful living!


As promised, sharing few joyful corners of our home...

buddha at home...

I don't have many idols of Buddha, but I just love the serenity that permeates the space that has the face of peace. Today I am sharing with you a few arrangements of Buddha that I have managed to photograph at home over a period of time. Hope you like them.
The post on decor inspired by love for Buddha is on it's way, so stay tuned:-)

Peace...

I deeply apologize for going missing from this space.

No excuses. Just didn't have anything inspiring enough to blog about.

Have just returned from our trip to Ladakh. The face of peace appears before me time and again...

Hope to put together a post on oriental/buddhist influence in home decor soon:-)

Happy Monday!

Here are some cheery yellow flowers from my home to brighten your Monday:-)
I received a beautiful gift, a ceramic incense holder, it was so lovely I decided to float these yellow flowers in them.
Have a great day!

A few corners from our new home...

Been completely submerged in home work and playing the role of a domestic goddess;-)
Here are a few casual captures from our new home, where I am still in the process of decorating & re-decorating. Athangudi tiles travelled all the way from Tamilnadu to our new apartment. Love the feel of these handmade tiles under my feet. (The more you walk barefoot on these tiles, the more they shine:-)I have open shelves in many rooms, it breaks the monotony and creates space for adding interesting elements.I love open shelves in the kitchen. Yes, the little black board has found it's place in the new kitchen too:-)A quiet corner with morning light filtering through the coloured patterned glass windows.
Will be back to some serious blogging the coming year:-) See you all then.


Wishing all of you happy holidays!

Instant Cheer...

No expensive curios needed. No designer artifacts.
It's the simple things in life that add that sparkle to your home and a smile to your face.

Yes, I am talking about fresh juicy fruits & colourful fragrant flowers and the magic that they bring into our homes.Today I share with you all loads of beautiful moments created by flowers & fruits in my home...

Take out that old brass 'matka' or 'kalsi' and fill it up with seasonal flowers, just a couple of them will do the trick.Let your creativity flow, write down happy notes;-)Don't have a brass vase, no worry go ahead and use empty glass jars......or empty wine/beer bottles. The brand lettering adds to the beauty. Add some whimsical touches, ceramic ducks picked up from a local fair...Don't have a florist nearby, no worries pick up some wildflowers from the roadside or some seasonal flowers from the trees:-)

These flowers and fruits certainly lifted my spirits on a rainy day like today!

Wish you all loads of happiness with vitamins and fragrance:-)

My Kitchen Shelf...

There is this small shelf in my kitchen which inspires me to try out various arrangements. The little blackboard definitely helps me convey a message:-) It doesn't require any great skills but has me smiling all day. Do you also have such a corner, a shelf, a table or a windowsill in your home that inspires you to try new creative arrangements?
