My Home, My Magic – home tour Feb 10

Did you think the love vanished after Valentine’s day?? Continuing on the topic of love, here is a home where each corner is over flowing with love… This is the home of my blogger friend Meenakshi, who blogs at Niwas-where our heart resides!

This is what she has to say -

Niwas is a home of memories, moments, good times, laughter and prayers. I remember when we bought this house I was not sure what I would do as far as decor goes. Being a first time home buyer I had no experience but what I had was imagination and patience. We still have a long way to go but I am happy with the steps we have taken.. .. I love the touch of India as it reminds me of home and most of the stuff you see here are either gifts from family or garage sale :-) ....

I wont bore you anymore... by telling you what I love about your home... But dont forget, I'm waiting for your lovely comments... And will leave you to enjoy the corner of her home..

Also do check January’s home tour – of Ms. Ahalya

Don’t forget to comment… so I know what you are thinking!! If you’d like to see your home here, or would like to share a cozy corner of your home do email me on torresp27@hotmail.com … I’d love to hear from you!!

  8. This is a beautifully decorated home. I love the last picture of the Buddha sitting on the books but my favourite picture is the one with the white cherub. I love cherubs!

  13. Very nice and warm loving decor. I especially loved the idea of putting a table lamp and tea tray with a frame on the washing machine in the laundry room. The light not only adds a glow but also gives it so much of a positive energy while doing the laundry.

    Loved the quotes on the wall and the colors of the canvas/wood on which the quotes were written. Great caligraphy.
    In which country is this lovely home?

  16. @Iniyaal - I am glad you see the warmth in your house .. I cannot wait to decorate more after these awesome comments :)

    @Vinita- My laundry room was the first place I started to decorate. Its a very simple way of making sure it remains clean :) otherwise everything beings on top of the dryer ..We are in Florida USA but heart is still in India.

    @Rekha- wall caught my attention too when I first saw this
