Home@432B | Fluted Emerald Green Vase

 

Saw this lovely fluted glass vase that came in 2 colours, brown and emerald green. Decided to get the emerald green with a gold base at the bottom. Love it so much!

Home@432B | Organise Lego Sets

 

Our Lego boxes comes in different sizes and takes up quite a large volume of the cupboard space. hubs decided to get these transparent boxes from Daiso to help organise the boys' lego sets. He printed the cover of the Lego sets so that we can identify the sets, the original boxes, he flattened them and put them all stacked in another cupboard. 

Personally I still love to see the Lego sets in their original boxes, unflattened. But I understand that we could store more lego sets this way. So ok, the husband wins this time.

Home@432B \\ Lovely double happiness vase

 

Bought this lovely blue double happiness vase online and it finally arrived at my place in 1 piece. Thank god for that. Now I'm thinking what sort of flowers should I put in the vase. In my mind, I'm thinking either draping white orchids or yellow sprightly orchids. Not sure why, I just think orchids would be lovely here.

Stay tuned for more updates on my entrance console! I'm constantly thinking how to spruce up this corner of my place.

CNY paper wheels and macrame

HOme@432B | A quiet moment

Took down James' birthday balloons. Cleared all the colourful new year cushions and red throw. Our home albeit looks abit empty but i feel a sense of calm now that everything is back to neutral tones in the home.

Home@432B | Dried Flowers Wreath

 

Received these handmade dried flowers wreath from my sis, all the way from the Netherlands!

Home@432B | Ikea Rocking Moose

 

We will miss this little rocking moose of ours. It has been with us for about 8 years already, still in mint condition but it's going to a good home, to a little boy who will play with it and make more memories with it.

Home@432B | Wishing everyone a Happy Lunar New Year

 

Home@432B | CNY decor

 

This year 2021, i bought matching cushion cover and table cloth from IKEA. It has this golden coin print which is so lovely. The colour is pleasing and not the usual bright red new year colour, which I suppose we can use it all year round.

Placed a red mat under my sewing machine, looking super auspicious now.

I have 2 chinese knots and didn't know where to put them, so I have decided to put one here at my entrance door. Luckily for me, the suction hook works and managed to hold up the chinese knot throughout the festive period.

Aaahh....re-using my previous year glass stickers which I bought from NTUC.

This year, I have a new console to decor my CNY items and put my New Year vase with flowers. Previous years, I will put this red flower vase at the kitchen island.

Something a little different this lunar new year is my paper wheels!

Newly added Chinese New Year cushions - lion head.

I admit, my living room now is in a bit of a mess as the CNY is so close to James' 7th year birthday, so it is a mish mash of CNY decor and birthday Paw Patrol decor. Gosh, and i hated my online balloon buy this time round because many of my foil balloons had slits in them and so they can be blown up. I had to find the slits and scotch taped them, but they deflate rather quickly. You can see the difference in the "H" and "P".
