Back home in Asia – I had a lovelier calligraphy work done for my home – it is the word of “luck” written in a hundred chinese ways.  While i was reading up more on  weight loss supplements , I came across this being sold on Etsy and thought of buying it. Remember, I always [...]

Wicker Emporium had a tax free sale yesterday – and you and I know that Canada has one of the highest sales tax in the world.  Raising to 15% in July – one cannot help but only buy things when they are tax free – so I went looking for stuff even though i didn’t [...]

Recreation Room

Posted by Trendy Chick on May 15th, 2010

I don’t know about you but in every household that has guys – even the little ones – a recreation room needs to have a pinball machine.  Not the computer type mind you – but those old arcade ones that you and I grew up with.  So we moved the home office furniture and made [...]

Who doesn’t want a swimming pool in their backyard right?  but how feasible is it i asked myself everytime I am tempted to try get one going.  Especially when our winter last for at least 6 months and another 3 months of chilly wind and foggy sky – welcome to Canada?  Plus while i was [...]

Easter is round the corner and this year we are hosting Easter lunch at our home – so even though both the spouse and I are busy with our individual jobs – family time is very important.   So what better to decorate the coffee table than these unglazed porcelain eggshells that i found online -  [...]

Furnitures From The Past

Posted by Trendy Chick on March 24th, 2010

Love the 70s furniture that i grew up with and truly if it wasn’t so expensive – i would have given this as a  personalized gift to the brother-in-law who was moving into a new house.   But for almost $470 USD – it’s way off my budget.    But having said that if you look at [...]
