Decorating with Bougainvillea

Bougainvillea is a gorgeous plant that thrives in any weather. It is low maintenance and adds so much of colour to your garden.  My garden has this gorgeous pink bougainvillea and I had to find a way to bring that pink indoors. So I rearranged and restyled one of my living room side tables and paired the flowers with a plain white Japanese ceramic teapot and it looked gorgeous. The only disadvantage with these flowers is it withers away very quickly. So even if you put it in water, it will stay for just one or 2 days. Nevertheless I think it’s a great way to bringing in beauty, drama for that instant happiness and enhance your décor even if it’s just for one or two days.

Have a look at the following pictures on how I styled with my favorite curios.

What do you think of my side table décor ? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Fun with Florals

No matter what the season, there are endless ways to bring flowers as inspiration to your home without going overboard. It’s the most beautiful and fun way to bring freshness to your home. You can achieve this by using floral wallpaper, furniture and other home accessories like cushions, textiles, rug, tableware and even paintings.

 

So here is my floral mood board for the ladies out there to set you in the mood and for some inspiration.

Wedding Bouquets

A beautiful bridal bouquet is an integral aspect of all weddings. It’s like a show stopper for a bride. The following inspiring pictures are from my favourite Bridal magazine, Belle where there is something for all brides.

Clicks from my Garden...

After a rainy afternoon my garden looked so fresh and energized... all the dust and grime washed away... green everywhere... my flowers glistened in the dampness... This motivated me to take a few pictures to share with you the colours in my garden. (Thank you rain!)
