Excited...totally!!!!
But I'm feeling blue,feeling blue ...Thats my song.Feeling blue  is not feeling sad for me. Blue to me is calm like the calm of the ocean after a storm.Blue to me is soothing and like all that is mine is happy.I redo my house every few years ,so portals like make my home.com are always great.My style is not retro or ethenic or eclectic,I prefer Colour Blocking.And my color is blue.As I live in government accomodation ,my hands are tied,I cant paint the walls. So I make do with color blocking the form of curtains and linen and cushion covers.I am not a print person...I like solid color with maybe a contrast or block prints or Khadi work of gold enamel paint.To add to my already overflowing room full of nick  knacks, a few additions from the make my home website and a statement is set.This 3 piece bed room set  from Swayam is exactly what I like.Blue ,with a few accent shades and a block print.At a discounted price of INR 3734 ,its good enough to make me happy. I'm an Internet, smart phone junkie. I can spend hours just surfing through online shopping sites, so I am pretty clued up about the prices. Just like a web crawler(sic), I work silently. So the discount is good, believe me.

Considered to be a harbinger of all that is pure and good ,a silver fish ornament is pure good luck. At a cost of INR 25,907 this handcrafted sterling silver is a potential heirloom and to make it stand out , I'd like to place it on my mantle on a blue silk runner ,on a glass or crystal stand or maybe encase it in a glass case.
I wouldn't ever place flowers, real or artificial in its mouth, ever.
The filigree work is just to neat to allow any flowers to distract attention ftom this master piece of craftsmanship.

The next best thing to do up my room is a mirror to echo the blue color all around. And what better than a Deknud Mirror to do that . A painting or picture takes away focus from the objet d'art. Ata discounted price of INR 57,375 this Belgian mirror is 16.25 kg and is actually a black glass over which 4 oblong mirrors are mounted that can give a 360° view of the room.
Awesome designer stuff.

Well ,style and as they say in Punjab ,its all about Tashan .
And the more expensive, the better.
Now the question arises, who is to foot the bill for my blue emotions and blue room?
Any takers?
A room that is set to be blue and beautiful and full of style and Tashan.
Wow.
Inspired?
Let's get shopping.
