Testing Outdoor Furniture
We are in the market to get some patio furniture.. and as you can see.. who the tester is.. and liking it alot. She even had everything arranged nicely.. and laid on the outdoor set.. as if she was taking a nap on it. And promptly said goodbye to the patio furniture as we were going towards the car.
Kitchen Crazy
I love my kitchen alot and that’s because I spend alot of time in it cooking up home cook food for my brat. I really try to make her 3 solid meals from home.. and even though i bring her to work with me, food is packed. I’m so proud of my kitchen because even the kichen cabinet knobs are specially ordered to blend with the rest of the house. PB said i am kitchen crazy .. but can you blame me.. when i had a state of the art kitchen back home..?? How many of you .. go kitchen crazy like me..?? and buy all sorts of knick knacks.. to make a theme outta your kitchen.
Fussy & El Cheapo
Those who knows us, knows that we have always been looking out at getting new curtains for the entire house. For 3 yrs in this new home of ours, we finally did get some for 2 rooms, one for the living room.. and one for the tv room. . and we only bought them because they were at half price. Yes.. ! you heard me right..! i never buy anything .. unless they are at 50% discount. El cheapo..?? yes..!
Home Furnishing
Decorating and furnishing the house is what we woman do best. We are always up to something, and by simply changing the window blinds or curtains one can make a room look completely different and set an entirely different ambiance to fit your needs. As for the man in the house, he doesn’t really care as long as we are happy with whatever we buy.
When comparing curtains versus vertical blinds, both does a great job but if I was looking for blinds I would want to definitely choose a reputable company to order from. One that can customize the size for me since our home windows are quite huge. Vertical blinds work great when you have a patio door to cover up and ordering the one I want online is easy too. JustBlinds is not only the largest independent window covering retailer in USA, they offer a 30 days satisfaction guarantee on all their blinds. They do free shipping and give out free samples to their customers, which is simply awesome, that way i don’t have to window shop in order to buy the right blinds.
Blinds or Curtains..??
I’m sure you all know that i love to decorate my house .. and am trying to make it look presentable.. that way I can entertain friends and family. Summer is the best time.. i think to do BBQs.. and I really want a family gathering. We were quite undecided whether to stick to blinds
or curtains for our windows.. because the curtains sold here didn’t have the right sizes we want. To specially order them would cost us a small fortune. In the end we decided to only dress one room at the time. What about you ..?? you have blinds or curtains..??
Eating With Movies
We have a very bad habit .. when we take our meals. At the store, we eat in front of the computer.. and as soon as there is no customers. But at home.. we never eat in the kitchen.. because we don’t have a tv there. I had contemplated on putting a tv wall mount in the kitchen.. so that we can finally eat in the kitchen.. instead of the tv room. Afteall, the dining room is going to waste.. coz’ we only at there once.
Discounted Curtain Rods
Many years ago, i wouldn’t think of nothing speaking money on furnishing the house. But of course things are different if you are spending the man’s money.. and not making your own. I love fanciful stuff.. who doesn’t . .and many year ago, i would never think of buying them only when they are on sale. I want something.. and i want it now. Life sure changes.. once you have kids eh..?? We finally got the curtain rods that we want for our tv room too. Nice or not..?? Not ex either.. !
Revamping 102
When my friends or relatives visit our home, they always say our bathroom vanities are simple yet elegant. We had carefully chosen the design ourselves, to fit him and her… and our bathroom is not those girly gal type.. because one has gotta think of the man too eh.
Revamping Our House
After more than 3 yrs in this house, I am ready to revamp it.. and give it a little spruce up.. and decorate it to the style i want. I’m hoping to start working on PB’s recreation room in the basement.. because we were so inspired but what we saw at Gerald’s house. It was really nice..and cozy and it would really give PB a breather and a place to go to .. to do his stuff.. afterall, we all need a break from each other. I’m gonna do one room at a time.. and not hurry myself.. because it has to be cost effective. I’m giving up on our backyard.. because after spending so much money on it for the last two years.. i’m still not seeing it turn green. The weather is too harsh here..?? But I’m still looking forward to a good BBQ .. during this summer. Hopefully, the weather is more pleasing this summer… last year it was horrid.
