France, Here I come - 7 Weeks to go

Still experiencing cold winter days in Melbourne.

A lot of things happened last few weeks, however highlights of all is to going to FRANCE for 3 weeks. hooray~~~

My DH and little princess is coming with me, so that's even better.

My dreaming of owning a french property is getting closer and closer.. I hope to secure something this trip but it that doesn't happen I get to travel to France more often.. whichever I can't complain too much.

I will do some French flea Market buying as well.. can't wait to do this..

In the meantime, there are so many things need to be taken care of before I leave..

This is where we will be staying in Paris ... I initially booked self contains apartment, however my little princess wants to stay at "FANCY" Hotel, so her wish was granted.

I will do some of this in Paris.. while little one and DH is checking out Museums etc.. Lucky me.

 After we leave Paris, we will be driving to  Loire Valley, where I want to buy a small house.

I was lucky to find this wonderful small gite (cottage ) and this will be out home for a while.

While we are in the region of Chateaus in Loire valley, I wanted to stay a couple of nights in Chateau. The photo of chateau is where we are going to stay. My little one and DH think it might be spooky.. (lol), but I gotta do what I gotta do. 

After Loire Valley and here and there, we will be heading back to Paris but we need to stop by at one more place before we leave France.. DISNEYLAND, PARIS. Thanks to little princess. 

This is our home for a few days in Disneyland. when I booked this hotel, I didn't realized that it was just opposite from the Europe's biggest Outlet Mall. I just got luck again.

So I will be doing some last minute shopping I guess..

I can't wait to take a trip to France, bonus to this trip I get to go to Korea to meet some of my friends and family on stop overs.

Silver wares Collection.

I am organizing house at the moment while Remembering what Lady Liza Campbell once said.

" Possession are such a burden, I long for less"

I think I have too many of everything. I definitely need to declutter what I don't need.

I gathered all my silver wares one place. I collected them over the years.


Organizing is a good thing,


Have a great day! wherever you are

I was cleaning up the house yesterday, and took some photos from here and there.

and remembered " Live with what you love " 

I think I need to clean out and organize some more.

Have a great week!

One of a Kind Fabric by Me

I've been wanting to design my own fabric for a long time.
Finally, my dream came true. Thanks to a new technology, I was able to design and print my very own fabric. I am so so happy. I wanted to share with the world.

I have so many ideas with my new fabric.
As you know I am passionate about upholstery.
I will definitely use my new fabric to do up some of my old french chairs.

If you want to buy some of my one of a kind fabric or produce your own design please contact me, I will be happy to help you with your custom fabric


Have a wonderful day, wherever you are
