A story

Nearly everything at home has a story to it... or a memory attached to it.

This painting is from the streets of Myanmar... 

That said .... most of my stories are Asian *smiles*... 

I've travelled to the rest of the world a fair bit as well... but am always inclided to get Asian things home.. particularly Indian 

The Kettle below is from Good Earth... 

The rickshaw below is from a little wooden craft store in Sri Lanka.. This one has a crack in it.. so if I got Sri Lanka this year.. I will most certainly pick one more.. 

The two things you see below.. The big diya is from The Craft Khazana

and the taller diya is from The Craft Safari... 

And all these little things.. totally complete the way home looks *smiles*

a few more corners

A few more corners of my home.

These two beauties.. the sitar & the veena came all the way from India. The veena is an antique from Calcutta and the intricate work is often  conversation starter. The wood work is truly beautiful.

It took me a while to decide how they were going to be placed on the wall, and in which corner of my home.. Coz the living room is really small... to host these two beauties... But I had my mind on putting musical instruments on the wall.. and that was it.. .*smiles*

Do you have anything interesting on your wall?? 

Horse cabinet

One of my favourite things at home.. is the horse cabinet… This I got after a hunt down Sharjah .. from Pinkys I think.. Its my prized possession!!

Oh I have a new horse from Rajee Sood Homes to put up soon!! *smiles* Have been waiting!!

I like this home of mine, coz its got the perfect space for this swing... another of my prized possessions.

This Ganeshji weighs atleast 25 kilos and was hand carried by my cousin.
I feel so loved everytime I look at it... *smiles*
