Rounding up my NYear's Eve/Day...2011

Maybe, I am a bit of in a lazy mood...

After a hectic week b4 Christmas and NY, I feel decrepit. Colds is on and off. Working in this branch I am working with, isn't fun this time of the year. Every account must be close and every account must be clean b4 the year end. It's all accounts... our Nostro, Vostro & Loro accounts.

In a way, I kind a like my tasks, though. Just sometimes, there are times that I feded up but that is life, It "Must go on"... Living the real life? that's me!!!

My NY celebration was quite. D´Nics started at D´Box for a light lunch. As I told you ladies b4, each year, one of my cousins, gather us together. I wait my turn on year 2013. By that time, I know what to do and what to prepare.

As the year goes by, mine and my cousins kiddo's are growing so fast. It was the last NY last year that all of our kiddos joint with us. 2 big kiddos, my son & another cousin's son was not even during the dinner. This year, they asked if they can join their friends at midnight instead. Only 2 young ladies, both 15 yrs old were with us. Isn't that sad? When our children create their own lives? I realized now, how hurting it is. In 10 days, Lil Missy of D´Box is going to move in the university down south of Sweden. The lil house will be so empty.

Anyways, here was my NY lunch & Eve 2011...
Hope everyone had an enjoyable NYear's Eve welcoming 2012
Start with the decos on top of our serving table...
As you can see, I mix Xmas ornaments & my 23 yrs old wedding shoes
This NY, I decided to have black & gold motives
I hung the blings & angle ornaments of my candelabra as centerpiece
LOTH(lady of the house) guardian angelGH(great hubby) guardian angel

I believe in angels and I am loving them.
It seems, I am inlove with all edges? Even edges of life.

    I love all the drama in your decor. You are skilled at the use of bold~ gold, black, white... very cool. I love all the pictures. I don't know how you pulled off such a lavish party. I would have come unraveled.

    Happy New Year from the Pacific Northwest.

    Hi there,

    Wow, this is so beautiful! I love the black and gold together and your candlestick with all the bling is wonderful. You asked about the deer on my post, I bought them last year at Z Gallerie. They do have an on-line store, but they didn't have them this year. Thanks for visiting. Good luck with the hunt!

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

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?
