So Shabby Chic

I was researching for designs for my website. I was tittering on vintage and somehow, the long crossed to shabby chic.

Now, here are stores carrying shabby chic pretty items and I just so love them. However I just can't put my money on them to buy them home because my house is filled to the brim with odds and ends.

Than.. dear hubby said its so simple to do shabby chic, all you have to do is to paint your furniture off white, put some decal or flowers stickers on them, and the inhouse furniture than become shabby chic items... does it make sense? I don't know.. I can't see myself painting my furniture white and putting stickers on them.... some how, I just can't imagine how the furniture will turn out looking.

So what prompted to write was my heart is in my throat as I research more and found so many artists, so many people just having or doing shabby chic.

Here is one.. www.treasuredheirlooms.net I just so love the room Cathy Scalise is in.. so dreamy.. so pretty.. This is definitely a room I don't want to get out of and would love to work in.

Ok for now.. I'm going away to browse these lovely sites.. get inspired, eye candy, day dream.. whatever.. I just can't have enough of them...

Incredible Urge...

I don't know why I start a blog for which I can't keep. It's been 6 months past and I've not blog in anything. Where have I been?

Well, I think of my blog now and than. While I drive, while packing things to mail, while in the shower, everything else except not in front of the computer. Because there were just so much else to do.

But this morning, I have this incredible urge to blog..but WHAT!?.. Random thoughts, doesn't mean you have to say something clever or wise.

If anybody sees the way I work, they'll know that I multi-task. I'll be switching between many screens, doing bit of this and that.

Woo hoo... my feedbacks have hit 4000!! Now... I'm aiming for 5000 and it seems a long way off but nevertheless, I'll get there.

Now... I got distracted again.. as always. I've been busy buying new products which means new photos to take and new listings to do.

Meantime, I'm also listing items in my website www.awesomecraftsstore.com Its been around for as long as I dare admit but only recent months, I get my act together and begin to work on it on a more constant manner. Helps when I've got the programmer and designer. I also have target a date to launch it. So I must get to it as soon as I can..

So do stay tune, if you'll like to add me to your blog, please contact me.
