Such a pretty SIGHT eh?

Birthday week and MONTH for moi. 

I say keep the flowers and cake coming. 

Yeah!

Two things I am stoked about- one, I got to experience the 101 seat-dining experience at the Falaknuma Palace here in Hyderabad and two;Ashwin Kireet, good friend and photographer allowed me to share the pictures of the event. This is my second post about the palace. For those who missed the first bit. Go here. I honestly have very few words to say; only because I won't do justice to it. Attention to detail and brilliant architecture.

By now, you guys must have got the hang of what I am trying to do/achieve here. The point is to use the most basic things around us to create beatiful flower arrangements. Today, we are using the most basic tea pots, that we see everyday in India. Its probably available in every household-might have to dig up the attic.

What we used: Aluminium tea kettle, flowers, stand, distressed wood accent- any twigs will do too,cutting tools, water

Wednesdays are always the craziest days of the week. Some call it mid week crisis and some others names that I can't mention here. Well, the point is - we put together a real easy arrangement especially for all you folks rushing to work. Here's a mood lifter for a perfect Wednesday. Tomorrow, there will be yet another post and a little bit about Sukanya Reddy. Stay tuned.

What we used: 2 antique tea pots, 1 miniature stool or any other stand- could be replaced with some hard bound books, some white flowers, cutting tools, water

I have had vitamins that are supposed to be taken once a day and the title for my series of posts for the coming months are inspired by the same. 

This month/week is dedicated to making simple flower arrangements using things around the house. You don't always have to use a breathtaking vase to come up with a fancy arrangement. For this week, my mother in law obliged to show us some super easy tricks and put together 7 fabulous pieces. Like I mentioned earlier, she has a super green thumb and I hope something rubs of to me in the coming years.

What we used: Clogs, red and yellow flowers, 2 plastic cups,cutting tools, water

Voila!

Let me know what you guys think.

I have always found the most amazing things at flea markets for my home in the last decade {i'm not that old, just like to think i'm very profound}. You guys know me by now- it gives me such a high to put eclectic things togther and make a space look *enchanting* {it is the Saturday Mimosa, that's throwing all these words in}
 
On a serious note, I was browsing through flea market finds and how they have been used all around the world. I found a bunch of awesomeness. Pure eye candy I must add.

Can't wait to see you all at the Flea Market.
