Happy Monday

And its a Monday... really!! I simply can't believe that half the month has vanished... I'm still incredibly busy at work and thats how its going to be for a while.. Which just means... that I don't really have a meaningful post for you today... *grins*


Saying that... I wanted to share with you... my new year beauties.. A glass tray base (this came with chocolates on them).... and 4 random tea-light holders... purchased at different times... put little orange and creme pebbles to make a base for the long ones... and I thought they looked lovely... 


Tell me what do you think??

Vendor cart


I've had this in my plan forever... using a vendor cart at home. At one point I wanted to make my dining table look like this, at another I thought I'd incorporate it in the bar area... Well if nothing worked I could definitely use this in the garden... But none of this happened... and Sharon & I spoke about it for a while too.... 

Anyway... so when I saw this at the Mumbai airport... I was ever so thrilled... 


They used this to display different types of 'Indian Teas', tea cups (kullads), and tea pots... 


Slightly more decorated than the normal vendor cart....



I liked this space as well... where 'Horn OK Please' got a mention with the lotus'... 



Tell me what you think? Would you like to use a vendor cart at home? Where would you use it?

Garden decor ~ piano

Who would think of this?? 

At a park in Moscow .... an old grand piano was used as garden decor ....


I truly thought this was super creative.... 


Here is a closer look at the piano with the flowers.... 


Impressed? I was for sure.... 


Sometime this month, I have a post coming up on 'Garden Tips'... *smiles* ... If you've done anything creative in your garden or green space... please email me on coloursdekor@gmail.com

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you my lovelies.... Yes... Its me again!! Did you miss me??

I have so much to tell you.... so much to share... that I simply don't know where to start... Colours Dekor is like my personal diary of happenings, experiences, memories and pretty things I stumble upon... 

I don't know if I want to continue with the weekly linky party... or if I have the patience for it.... How about a monthly one? with a topic as well... ??

There are a few colour stories... I have lined up for you (somewhere!!).... I still have to tell you about my new orange wall.... the stairway makeover... the bar makeover... the shot glasses shelf... that I am still unhappy about... 


I have to tell you about some gorgeous places I visited... the stunning architecture of the temples... the amazing interiors of the hotels... and a few street artists that I was simply amazed about... in particular this spray paint artist on the streets of Moscow... 


Oh... and I have to share all my shopping with you... I picked up absolute junk from the streets of Bali and then from India as well... I also got some gorgeous stuff from an online store... that I have to tell you about.... 


I have a few store reviews... a few design secrets... and also a new series.. of 'At home with ...... '... 

Do you know whose home this is.... in the pic below... *smiles*... 


Well... all this and more... coming up... soon on Colours Dekor... once I'm done with the budgets for FY13 ... finished my quarter end and year end responsibilities... So till then... put up with me... stay connected.... *hugs*
