Sharing A Nook

Its seems to quite a long break from the blogging world. It feel good to come back to writing this tiny piece back in my blog again.

I am planning on starting a series called "Sharing A Nook" so that I can stay connected to the blogging world. I intend on sharing some special corners of my home that I love. Simple DIY's that have transformed an otherwise boring space.

We have a half wall that separates the wash from the dining area. I utilized this space to bring in some greenery into the house.Money Plant has always been something I  associated with as a child. My Mom used to love them. She used to fill up the bottles with water and drop in a money plant.
I used up some of the empty pickle bottles, Brought in a pack of Glass Paint from the nearby store and got to work.

The procedure of glass painting is fairly simple. The instructions are pretty simple, so you shouldn't have any difficulty working with it.It was my first experience with glass paint so its a pretty amateurish work. But still I was pretty happy with the outcome.

The beautiful colorful cylinder that you see was done by my 3 yr old. So that's very special to me.
He taped around different paper tapes around the tissue roll holder to create these lovelies. He's creative guys. He loves to hang around when I craft and loves drawing too.


Hope you loved my little space. Share your experiences on how you transformed your spaces. Drop in a comment , would love to hear from you !

New Place New Dreams !

We relocated !
A couple of months back Ikka landed up with a new job at our native i.e Trivandrum.
In normal circumstances I should have been the happiest soul on the planet ! It close to my parents house, it close to his parents house. There's no pollution unlike bangalore. Trivandrum is one of the most beautiful places with lot of beaches (which I soo much love). But Yet I was unhappy ! I was unhappy with his decision to relocate. I protested & fought with no particular reasons to support my stand. I guess I have NewPlaceAnxietyDisorder (Yikee! that would be one of a kind..haha).
Well after all the months of anxiety I am here in Trivandrum. Landed just last week.

Now I am jobless and thats my new problem. What will I do if I dont find a proper job! Then I got 2 jobs.. But the pay is bad. Should I go & join with a lesser salary? I dunno, I have still not made up my mind. Can I become a stay at home wife. I am not so sure that I would make a good house wife.. I dont cook well, I can be painfully lazy at times & my mood swings can be horrible when I dont have anything interesting to do.

But then I have all my varying interests - Painting, Singing, Decorating, Crafting, Sewing. Ideally I should not be idle at anytime. Thats when I realised I have so much of setting down to get done at our new home.
I have to setup an entire home. Make it my home !

And staying home can be great for Richu. I'll get to take care of him better. Be there for him , teach him some nice things, play with him, take him to school. I seldom find enough time for him when I go to office. I am mostly tired and exhausted by the time I get home, so I guess this is redemption time for all the time I couldn't spend with him.

Wonder how our minds works. Even when we have everything we tend to brood on the smaller things we could have. I guess it time to stop worrying & start Living.

Just came up with some initial sketches to decorate my new home !
What do you think?

A Day in my Life !

It was a beautiful day ! Took some time off. Spend some time wandering in the open...That's when it struck me I should try something different today - Photography.... I keep seeing all these fancy photographs on the net ... so I decided I should try some too... So I shot some self portraits ... used some photo editing software....and here is the result...

A reminder of the longg list of TODO's for the day !

Feeling reallly really happy when I got all the items ticked away !

Cooking something new has become my new best hobby

The Best part !!! playing with my young one.... I just love him sooo much 

Don't u loveee that expression... hahhaaaa.... " Ehhh... u have kissed me a lottt today ...Not again !"
I guess that's what he's trying to say :)
