dinning room progress…

Monday, September 16th, 2019

I’ve been working on upgrading our dining room since last November and it’s coming along nicely. After installing this gorgeous dark floral wallpaper from Ellie Cashman which I’m absolutely still in love with, I purchased a new Sanger chandelier from Aerin and got new set of chairs from One Kings Lane which was a lot of work to put together.

After those purchases, I had to save money somewhere so I made the drapery by learning from youtube tutorials on how to make French-pleat drapery. It was not an easy task and nowhere perfect but I’m happy with how they turned out. 🙂
More updates to come…

Cake for breakfast

Tuesday, July 30th, 2019

I have a very fun day planned for my kids in the city today.

First, eat cake for breakfast at Dominique Ansel Bakery.

Chloe chose the infamous cronut & tiramisu that’s in the shape of NYC coffee cup for her breakfast.

Shane got French toast and I got a spinach and gruyere quiche.
Though the kids loved the idea of eating sweets for breakfast, they barely could finish half of theirs, saying everything was too sweet. They ended up sharing my quiche.. Lol.

We went out shopping for a mattress & a TV for my parents this morning, trying to take advantage of  4th of July sales.

Feeling good about our purchase, we had lunch @ Houston’s.

So lucky to have these two in my life…Love them so much!
