I fell in love today :) I fell in love with the sunlight streaming through my window. Yes, I am silly like that!! After 19 days of endless rain, the sight of blue skies and the sun can do that to you. It was like a veil had lifted! I was besotted with the sunlight, my home, and the pretty pink flowers that completed the picture!!
Also, I have a confess something on the blog today! You know, that I do around exploring and hunting for things for the Shop At My Dream Canvas but what you don't know, is that I always find something in my loot that tempts me. This time it was this vintage brass fish shaped soap dish. I found it while rummaging through stuff in a tiny little shop in India. It was covered in dust lying neglected among some shiny new things. I fell for it instantly and therefore cannot bear to part with it. However, I did pick up a few extra pieces so for those of you who are interested, it is also available in the Shop!
I have a weakness for antiques and vintage styled products. They are part of my home as well as my little online boutique :)
My sun kissed home today made me think of Spring. There is so much to look forward to. Life is complicated but beautiful all at the same time..............don't you think??

I own a few pieces of silver that belonged to my Great Grandfather. For years I stored them away in a china cabinet and almost never used them. They were show pieces as I was scared that something might happen to them. Off late, I have had a change of heart and use them all generously:)
I love creating vignettes where my heirlooms blend with the new and the modern. This tray is a great favorite of mine and I like using it as a centerpiece. The picture does not do justice to the beauty of the tray. The carving is intricate and very rare. I urge you to treasure things that have been passed down generations.
A home needs to be filled with stories, its not just about decorating, but collecting and appreciating what you have! Let your home tell your story...........Image: My Home
We are heading towards a glorious weekend. I saw the first signs this afternoon as the sun rays enveloped my home. I am always mesmerised by the play of shadow and light. Natural light always makes even the most ordinary things look extraordinary. An ordinary day can get better if one stops to admire the simple things in life....don't you think? Almost like recharging your batteries :) Life is messy, complicated and busy to say the least. I think it nice to pause a few minutes everyday to simply enjoy the little things around you!My Family room this afternoon.....
