• Small Spaces: Play areas for the boys

    This post is part of a Small Spaces Blog Train and I will be sharing about our living spaces catered for our kids. Take a peek at what fun means in those spaces, as well as some tips on how I get all those toys organised for the boys. Well, before I get into the small spaces catered for my kids, I got to give a little introduction to my other half. You see, he’s pretty anal. He’s interior design trained, but a ladies shoe design/R&D person by profession and his life revolves around a lot of symmetry and accuracy. When we were planning for the renovation of our place,…

  • New Year’s Eve (NYE).

    What were you doing? Partying at some happening countdown? I didn’t plan for anything at all. Not until that afternoon when Jerry kept asking for Gorgor Issac. He has been asking for him non stop! He somehow likes to invite people to our house so he is always asking if who who who is coming to our house.

It’s too late to grab any proper food by then and the husband said he didn’t want pizzas so the fastest…

  • Our nest – updates on the renovation works. [Part 2]

It’s really one massive project and i learnt a lot out of this experience. Sure, it could…
