hermitsville makeover* 

When I returned home from my Jakarta trip, I felt that I soooo needed a makeover for my home. There were so many things that just do not fit anymore.

1. The main curtains have to go, for something that can create a more warmer mood and also fit better to my ruby red wall. Key word is "ambience".

2. Some dying plants just needed to be thrown away. To me, dying plants = bad vibes for the house = bad for me. Not good if I want 2008 to be a prosperous year for me.

3. I also need one more giant plant for the living room area - I had in mind a 10-feet tall plant with huge leaves. When I say huge leaves I mean each leaf has to be bigger than the size of my face. And as you know, I have a big head, to fit my big mouth. Ha.

4. The dining are need to be enhanced in terms of lighting. I hate eating under flourescent light - they just make the food look unappetising. Bland. Bleh.

5. The kitchen needs more plants too. At least 2.

6. Last and most importantly, I need to get a new mattress, to replace my current 8-year old and also a proper bed.

So the week before Chinese New Year, I got myself extremely busy and did my own home makeover. I must stressed how very pleased I am with the result. I think I have a good future in interior decorating. Most of my deco items are not expensive, and I love to mix and match purchases from different home deco outlets, so that they reflect my personality. As it should, since I spend most of my time at home.

Without much ado, I present to you the "new" Hermitsville.
