Obsessed with Everything Blue and Brown!

It has always been my favorite color combination and still is to this very day! I have been really obsessed lately with design inspirations for the home in these colors.

Looking For Ideas: Wall Photo Gallery

I have been looking hard around the web for inspiration on how to display some of my most cherished photographs that are stored in my hard drive. Our walls are very bare right now and it needs to come alive soon.

Here are some wall galleries that I really like.

Any more suggestions on beautiful wall galleries? I would love to take on this project soon!

Pro Prep Block

I have a tiny kitchen.  I love my kitchen but I always look for ways to maximize space and store everything I need.

Here comes the Pro Prep Block.

The website describes this wonderful invention as:

The Pro Prep Block is a chef's dream, offering a four-inch thick Northern hard rock maple butcher block top, pot rack, lower storage shelf, two stainless steel towel holders, and optional locking caster wheels—all in one beautiful package. The butcher block surface stands at 36 inches, an ideal height for food preparation. The pot rack, which stands an additional 34 inches above the butcher block top, features a stainless steel bar with hooks that can be adjusted, letting you keep your favorite pots, pans, and utensils within easy reach (pot rack is optional; please use the drop down menu above to add a pot rack to your order). The decorative under-shelf is made of individual maple slats and is a perfect place to store and display larger kitchen items. The stainless steel towel bars are great for hanging dishrags and kitchen towels; they also double as handles to use when moving the Pro Prep Block.

Look at this beauty:

The listed price on the website is really steep!  Over a thousand dollars.  While I don't doubt the fine quality of this prep center, I am wondering if we can find a local, cheaper, similar version of this in dark wood.  I really need one!

My Tree and Me

I absolutely love it when I stumble upon websites that get my imagination running wild.

Robert and I live in a tiny apartment in the heart of Metro Manila. I just love how our small space encourages me to be creative in making our home beautifully decorated.

I just got done putting up a photo gallery by the entrance of our place. Right now I am looking around for more ways to brighten up our other walls.

One of my "future" projects (meaning: someday, when I have the energy and resources to do it) is to develop a family tree. I had no idea how I was going to make it look like but I knew I wanted to make one someday.

This is why I was so thrilled when I found "My Tree and Me" -- which designs customized and modern-looking genealogy charts.

Look at these designs to appreciate the work that My Tree and Me does.






My favorite design.


A lovely idea to give to our future children!
