My Home, My Magic - home tour June 10

I’ll leave you to guess who lives in this magical home…. I’ve featured her on this blog before – Who said a bookshelf just had to have books in it?? You can have CDs, books, paintings, frames, incenses, and pretty knick knacks .... just about anything your heart wants...

A frame on the floor…. Is it necessary to have this on the wall??

Love the lights... and the shadows...

Even a simple mirror in this home is made to look gorgeous by adding accessories on the top…

A few serene corners…

I like how the lower part of the table is used to showcase your interests… Lets have a game of chess…

Plants everywhere… and lots and lots of beautiful stuff around .... reflects upon the vibrant people who live in this home... Its warm, loving and truly magical...

I’m a huge fan of paintings or pictures on the wall … that are put up randomly… I somehow am not talented enough to do this myself…

Lots of love overflowing through knick knacks, artefacts, paintings, pictures & books is the personality of Pree’s home. Do have a look at my earlier posts on her home – Apartment 408 & Another look… Don’t you want to see more?? I do… I so do!!

Are you obsessed??

Everyone is obsessed with something I guess… But are you as obsessed as Matt is????

FIFA fever

Has the FIFA fever gripped you as yet??? We won't be having a party at home …. (sadly)… But this is what we did at work on Thursday…

Cupcakes with team emblems ….

This is the team I support…

It was ‘dress to support your team’… Lovely to see the enthusiasm and loads of people with creative ways to support their teams..

The food spread was awesome..

We had our own South African mascot…

More food…

We put flags & posters up on the walls… and had whistles lying around…

A closer look at the beautiful cake…

All in all… a great afternoon together.. So what team are you supporting??
