Drooooool...

Saw some AMAZING home ideas today at http://www.boredpanda.com/amazing-home-interior-design-ideas/


Added a few to my wishlist - yes it will happen someday people!

Totally drooling over this





In my next house may be...












Stairs bookshelf yall! 



The last few are not on the wishlist but make it for their sheer ingenuity


Creepy but clever



A pain to clean up but I can feel the cool sand under my toes just looking at it




Not for the queasy 




How adorable :))

Rain makes music through these pipes


Should try this..

Time flies and So do Butterflies :P

Some people find butterflies creepy
I sometimes fall in that category
Especially when they are in a swarm

But of late Ive been seeing some really cute projects on pinterest

Somehow it seems butterfly wall art has a life of its own
Robust and full of energy
Like the butterflies can unswirl at any moment and spill out of the art and land on your face

or am I being too dramatic!


Tried something on a smaller scale in Mikis bedroom using scrap book paper and hot glue




Plan to do this soon...
 
 
 
 






 

 


Stencilling

Its that time of the week
when I have the day off
and I am itching to try something new

U see there's every opportunity to laze on the couch and just watch TV
But ofcourse the compulsive self has to be productive


Thus tried my hand at stencilling - from scratch!



Got this Indian/ Moroccan pattern from pinterest



Tried making a stencil with one specially tough cardboard and gave up

Then ripped off the back cardstock of a letter head and got into action





Found a spare wall that was begging for some subtle effect


Saw this idea of gloss on matte effect on the beautiful "whatsurhomestory" blog by +Vidya Sukumaran

Vidya's is ofcourse prettier :)




Voila!






Gloss white on matte white pattern


Whats the verdict ;)
