PAINTING COMPLETE****

WHAT A RELIEF.....
Painting completed YeY!!!!.


The workers have just left, leaving behind wonderfully clean and sparkling walls but, but there is such a mess around the house with all the things scrattered around that the house does not seem to be freshly painted and clean , to get that feeling of being in a freshly painted house it is going to take about 3-4 more busy days....
My kitchen was the last to be taken for the painting work,and that was three days back.
I have a very small kitchen but I have things that would fit any big palatial kitchen Hehe... that is my love for kitchen ware.
I love touching and handling things in the kitchen , I love white,colorful,small , simple , or big in short I love everything that
can be used in the kitchen and using the same things day in day out is not idea of being happy with what I am doing...



I have so many spoons and ladels but still when I see a new design or a new material I will go and buy it...
That does not end with spoons I have dozens of plates and bowls too, every new color or shape fascinates me.....
And so kitchen was one place in the whole house that I was dreading getting painted... If you look at my kitchen today it does not look like its been painted it is in such a super mess , I just don't feel like entering it right now and hence  I am sitting here as sitting and reading on the computer relaxes me..



I have a pile of work to be done but computer is my tablet for rejuvenation and that's what I am doing before starting on my days or day ends work , its 7.15 in the evening....

PAINTING THE HOUSE****

I am getting my house painted after a very long time and hence lots of mess all around , every morning I have to shift things around before the workers come in and have to put them in place once they leave...
I get stuck in one room while work is being done in the other rooms  , I go in and out of the kitchen only when required and when they allow me to pass through their mess....




While in the room , I read a lot of magazines ,what can be more inspirational than a interior  magazines with steaming hot cup of coffee in your favorite mug and spoon..




Ohhh!!!!I love my orange mug and the green spoon in it... I normally like the contrast combination's.
Having coffee is a bright spot in the otherwise dusty and messy day.. 

Talking of inspiration , while reading this issue of HOME AND GARDENS  I felt inspired enough to make a decoupage YAY!!!!.
Would you like to see what I made and I think this was the page that inspired me to do it so first the inspiration and then the outcome.. 



And here is what I created....


Small cute coasters for my mid morning cup of coffee of tea...
I have clicked a few pictures of the lunch boxes made in the last week will try to post them tomorrow.. Its 7.00 in the evening and the workers have just left so time for me to get up and complete or do my part of cleaning and clearing the whole thing and cooking dinner so see you tomorrow...
