Another Week-Another Game?


Absolutely, it is!

But, my games always for real. There might time, I play for displays but most of the time, I love my real things join the fun.
This week, is my 2nd week I am not working, so I feel really a homey mum and I think, I am loving it. I can wake up whenever, do the things I didn't managed to do when I am working 8 to 5 and do the blogging. Like now... I cope up & hang up with you, ladies! Isn't it luxurious? However, I feel, I am missing something, though? The social life. For instance, meeting old & new colleagues. The chit-chats, coffee breaks, group gym/work-out, the problem solving, changing my attire everyday, in case, a meeting with clients come up and the yelling coz my trades didn't settled on time.
Ahhh... Life sometimes is so hard to cope up with. Sometimes a "bitch" but doing the things that make us happy and contented, is worth living, isn't it?

---SO LET'S PLAY @ D´BOX---
My sink & some simple things to fit the motives

I guess this is the first time I show you, ladies, how D`Box kitchen top, looks like. I have a very little kitchen but I have enough place/cupboards to hide all my knicks-knacks. My kitchen motives are red/black/white... that's the reason, I have the big red plate on the top of my windowpain and red candle. Our kitchen is always the first spot in D´Box that is a tip-top clean. If not? D´Nics, ruin my day §:-)

--- K, let's starts---
C.R. Carlström silver flatwares/double tablecloth
This silver flatwares are absolutely very swedish and manufactured in Stockholm. I purchased this set for 23 yrs. ago in an antique store. The old lady told me that this is a typical Sheffield crown and known as a 40.50 yrs old. I am adoring them. I have a dozen, from teaspoons to soup spoons.
Serving spoon, same manufacturer...
100% cotton/linen tea towel...
To you, who just came to know me, just want to tell you that I am a good modifier. Everything in handy, must modify. So, I found this tea towels and it's hand embroidered. I can't resist to buy 2 dozen. 1 in this colour and the other dozen was red and white stiches. Fantastic.. Today, I use them as my tablenapkins...
Simple centerpiece---A sign of abundancy

I am so in love with all centerpieces I/You have in your/my table. In my own opinion, this lil piece makes our celestial tables and give a beautiful ambiance with a delight dining. In this simple one, I have demounted a 2 tier cakestand and I gathered what I have around D´Box. On "top" of it lays mini pumpkins, purple sweet corns, artichoke, an egg choco and my rusty sceptre. I found they are worth joining.
Russian cut crystal glasses...
This are purchased by my russian friend. I love cuts. It looks so well carved. Perfect for my kitchen motives (again!).
My shabby chic/country dinner set
I always dream to collect this set, since awhile ago. I am loving them. Many of my swedish co-bloggers whom I know use their treasure only during special occasions. While, I am using them when I feel like using them. Friends & family started to buy when I celebrate my birthdays or Christmas. Now, my collection is almost end up.
Dinner, sallad and coffee set
Recently, I showed one of my ruffled dinner plate. Many of us who love shabby chic drools. I have 1 set of 8 for every set from dinner plates to saucers.
Upper view during evening...
And dinner is serve...Roast potatoes & carrots...
Green sallad & Cordon bleu
Can you see the serving plate edge? Roses!!! am loving them... A big plate, perfect for serving. In D´Box, we love to have real food on the table. Fresh & healthy is our motto...Always keep warm not just on winter. Keep hearts warm too...

That's all, lovelies? Hope you all have a great TTT and enjoy travelling to visit our bloggie friends. How I wish I could visit you all for real and have chit-chats...

HAPPY TABLE TOP TUESDAY

  16. Everything is beautiful. The white dishes...I am wishing for a set...of course! :) And the silverware..so beautiful.
    I love the idea of tea towels as napkins and have been waiting to find exactly what I want...Napkins are just not large enough and often not the sort of fabric that is easly cleaned of stains..
    ok..LOVE it all. The sink area...wow...perfect! And..it looks as though it would be too high for me. Most sinks are.
    Have a wonderful week..and thank you SO much for popping in to see me and leaving a lovely comment.

  20. You really have some beautiful things -- I am particularly taken with your Russian crystal. Just exquisite.

    SvaraRadera
  21. Love your Russian crystal and your Sheffield silver...great choices for your collection. Thank you for the information about the capiz chargers/placemats. I did think that the size seemed more like a placemat, but they have a rim, verge, and indented center area like a plate. I think that's why I ultimately decided that they were plates. I wish that I could find more of them. Thank you for sharing your treasures and for stopping by my post. Cherry Kay

Having a BALL in our Outdoor cozy lounge...

AT LAST!!! Isn't it an easy life when our weather is not that HOT or too COLD ? ***  Det är så underbart liv när vädret tillåter. Absolut man får njuta det ljuva livet i solen. This is the time when I move our lounge outdoor and just loving to pamper it with my simple way and a dash of a chic style (at least) I feel it. *** En härlig dag sån här årstid. Jag flyttade vardagsrummet i uteverandan och den älskar jag. En enkel stil med en liten chic-touch! Here is my new outdoor LOUNGE!!!   Me & GH went for a morning walk (as always)   Preparing for a cozy outdoor lounge... I move the buffé table and gathered my treasures...  I gathered all my pensies in my galvanized tray... Cotton cookie holder from Malta with a St. John's cross My wrought cloche which I wanted to rust but still long way to go...  Mini grill? GH asked! Guess NOT! Don't you like it?   This corner will be a drink corner and ready to serve us... GH cho

Inherited--- A Vintage and Delicate Treasure

A sofisticated to my eyes... When I was young, I know what we had on top of my family's table. I don't really care what kind of treasures we had? I just remember that my grandfather had a very fine china set and unfortunately ended to a wrong greedy grandchildren, my first cousin's wife. Mum inhereted some of the set and as I recall she adored them till her last breath. If I am still living in The Philippines, I would love to keep them by myself. Hopefully, dear sis will adore as Mum does. Then, my new life started when I marry GH and move to Stockholm, Sweden 25 yrs ago. I know my love of kitchen/tables gadgets, i.e. household utensils, deep in my heart. It was already forseen by many of our friends--- my pedantic way and the love of a house to make it a home. I thank you Mum for that. It is true the saying " what we had experienced from our childhood, is what we get when we have our own" ? Well, when GH mother passed away 2 decades ago, GH inherite

The first real Amazing Spring Day...

AT LAST... This is really the first day with a great sunshine! It was just a busy day but we are  HAPPY ...  indeed   So, here was our day... An absolutely fine day... me & GH went for a walk... to see---- Cherry blossoms BlooM to the Max... this is one of the attraction in time like this in Kingsgarden... On the way home, this advertisement from 7-Eleven catches my attention... Then met these witches, LoL* sharing their goodies... that's another way around, huh? Then, when we came home, nothing can stop US... GH fix the gazebo in the mini-house in the garden... And the real witch is busy with her chores! Guess she is ready to party! When you see clothes hanging outdoor? That is really a hot day, :-) I hope you have a great weekend, too. Enjoy and have a blessed Easter Sunday to You All. God Bless Us All...
