The cushion covers have arrived!

Posted in Decoration, Homeware, Our Home, tagged , , on 29 March 2008 | 2 Comments »

First of all, I know I haven’t been posting as frequently as I used to. I guess there are not as many new things to talk about. Also, I’ve been working 12-hour days last week so I wasn’t up to writing blog entries by the time I got home.
Earlier this week, we ordered the buffet [...]

I hope you had a wonderful Easter break.
J and I took it easy this long weekend - we visited family and friends, and finished the LOTR trilogy on DVD (using our “mini cinema” of course!).
We got around to some housework today, I folded what felt like mountains of clothes, and J had fun with a [...]

Farewell, Stable Tables!

Happy news - our dining tables and chairs have arrived! J played a trick on me and sent me an SMS saying that “something came up” for the store owner, but when I got home the table and chairs are all set up!

This post is a bit overdue … I was going to write about this 2 weeks ago, I guess it’s better late than never!
The previous owner installed typical oyster lights. There were quite a few of them around…

I never liked them because they look a bit old fashioned, and I find it difficult [...]

Our mini cinema

J bought a few hdmi cables today and he’s been playing around with the AV setup. We haven’t decided on where to put the projector yet, so it’s sitting on a foldable chair at the moment in front of the sof at he moment.

We spent Sunday afternoon at Bunnings and Ikea - J is planning to build a shoe rack in an existing wardrobe for me . We will share the plans once he completes his research.
We also bought a few things. I think this is a fun fruit bowl.

This is sitting on the coffee table for [...]
