Corners of My Home and Giveaway!

-
I love interior design. I was very inspired by so many interior spaces out there that I just couldn't wait to decorate our home. Madebygirl, Makingitlovely, Younghouselove are just few blogs that I love to visit and they inspire me everyday. What is even ahhhh-mazing is that Jen from Madebygirl did a little tour of our home so check it out!


On the previous post, some of you mentioned about the little corner of where I was standing to take my outfit pictures. Here it is.




We love our bookcase and Kaylee!!!! She was only 10 days old, sleeping so peacefully.

    I have always loved how you decorate your home. It is modern, functional, cozy and stylish. Mine desperately needs help, perhaps I could fly you here if I were rich :D. I want to go to Ikea to browse some nice furniture but never have time nor a babysitter :(

Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule. ~Frederick W. Robertson Our home is not big nor fancy but just cozy enough for our lil family. So grateful that we did not get affected by hurricane Sandy and prayers to anyone north of us that was affected. Happy Wednesday and Happy Halloween! Taking Kaylee trick or treating tonight!
