I Can Live Here

One of the things I love doing is dream of my future home. One that I can call my own and one that I can decorate to my own liking. So yes it's natural for me to trade clothes shopping with home-furnishings window shopping. When there's an opportunity to go around hardwares and home depots, I usually happily grab that and dream of ways how to put things I like in my future home.


I like looking at the lamps so I can imagine the lighting I wish to have


I like to check bathroom fixtures


And tiles


Because I imagine my bathroom to be relaxing, in neutral colors, very fresh. 

I can't probably afford a tub. I am good with that. 

Oh yes, the general theme of the house would be clean classic in white/beige/taupe with soft pastel accents


Lots of natural lighting (now where can I get that in Metro Manila... at an affordable price?)


These knobs 






Are perfect for small, light-toned kitchen

The living room would be a small space that is in line with the general motif

Shades of grey would also look good in the chosen palette

Oh yes, the bedroom would look something like this

No bright colors, just muted shade so that I can relax at the end of the day.

I might consider some splash of color, or something like this with salmon pink accents

The good thing about dreaming, your imagination is the limit.

Summer Bloom

After breakfast on Good Friday, I went around the house to take photos of the summer bloom. 



There were reds



Yellows



Pinks



And as long as I can remember, these "ladies have been dancing" for 20 years



Mama has the greenest thumb of all.  I wish I have the energy to plant and be responsible to cultivate flowering plants, but the sun and I don't have much love between us. I once remember telling Mama that if I'll have my own house, it's either I hire a gardener (if I can afford one) or just have no back/front yard at all. This was after I assisted her ALL DAY tending to her plants which covers 3/4 of the surrounding ground!

Hanggang Plants vs Zombies lang ako.

This is the plant box by the fence. Nothing fancy.



This pink orchid is my usual breakfast view in our backyard



While this white flower from a wild vine greets me by the garage every time I come home.



My favorite is this wild orchid



Reminds of chic spas and hotel.

It's always good to come home -(",)-*wink*
