Decor ~ Birdcage Muse

Décor

There is something exceptional about adding a bird cage into the ornamentation mix of a room – it’s like informal bohemian vibe, the Victorian flavour, kind of steam-punk match. Here are some ideas to use a bird cage for décor.

For lighting. House candles or stuff a bird cage with a strand of string lights.
Just décor. You can find a gorgeous vintage bird cage, and it would be a great décor piece in itself – next to a potted plant or a vintage mirror frame. Maybe you can put some antique books inside a large bird cage – it’ll be a great idea.
There are also stands and flat racks that are in the shape of a bird cage. The flat ones can be used to hang up photographs, or to hang and organize your jewelry in your bedroom.
Birdcages make great housing for plants – no matter, natural or artificial ones.
if you are looking to create a centerpiece arrangement, a bird cage can be used as an elegant accessory just like the table centerpiece.
Outdoors, a bird cage can be used as a hanging planter or bohemian decor piece.

I have been really busy lately, so I haven’t had a chance to go out for leisure and shopping but I truly enjoy handpicking a couple of them online. Although even just skimming through them, I found so many pretty cages I want to own to add to my collection.

I tried to order two Birdcages off of one of one of my favorite online stores that sell Vintage products, they were about Rs. 2900 each (I wanted to order 2 cages), with shipping, the cost came to over Rs. 6000! That is insane!

Now you know why these cages made me so happy.
Is there anything that has made you happy lately?

Bottled-Up-Happiness!!

Events & Experiences

Summer is creeping up fast here in New Delhi! Summer is all about florals and fruity fragrances. Its the perfect time to get yourself a brand new perfume that smells every bit of summer! I am falling in love with this refreshing summer scent of Heat Rush (a gift from a fren). It is less fruity and feminine than some scents of summer. ❤ This divine Perfume Fragrance, Shower Gel and Body Cream smells just like bottled up happiness.

It’s amazing how much a new scent can change your outlook, your mood, and your style! A trip to the perfume counter can be a little intimidating – all those perfumes!– but a little guidance goes a long way. It took me a long time to pick the perfect signature scent for myself. I recently repurchased ‘Chance’ by Chanel, I could not but mention my favorite perfume, I am now on my fifth bottle, and I have never loved it as much.

Perhaps I can accredit my love for this perfume to the fact that I first got it as a birthday present when i was living in Guwahati almost five years ago now. It was my first Chanel perfume experience, and I could not actually have picked better myself. I also think of this perfume as my lucky perfume.

Purchased at the airport during my trip to Mumbai two years ago!!

Another one of my favorites-loewe quizas pasion perfume cum deodorant. it is all about spring – it’s fresh, light, and so pretty!It’s unusual, but in a very good way… it’s sure to get you noticed. This is a classic perfume for a reason! It’s exotic yet simple, with a fresh, sweet scent.

In a word: lush. I really love this fragrance. I also adore the different shapes and sizes of these bottles. I have an entire collection of Bvlgari miniature collection perfume. If you’re indecisive, fickle about fragrances or just happen to love all of the scents in a particular collection, a miniature set is a great choice.

Minis are small, sweet and make great gifts!

It lends instant elegance and femininity to any vanity, and a great savior at times. It’s equally functional in its ease of portability. Popping one in a purse or stashing a few in a desk drawer at the office is a common habit for fragrance connoisseurs. I put aside a couple of them on my altar. Small sizes equate to greater purchasing power for the savvy shopper; it’s possible to purchase a handful of miniatures and still not pay even close to the price of a full size fragrance.

Which of these perfumes is your own favorite? Or is there another scent you’ve tried recently that I should add to my list? Let me know down below!

Quiet Repose….!!

Décor

A perfect gift: Bring a little magic and whimsy into your home with the Butterfly Beauty Fairy Figurine. Crafted from resin, this accent depicts a fairy seated in quiet repose. Graceful fabric butterfly wings extend behind her. Fairy’s gown is decorated with a butterfly design. Fairy figurine is finished in glittering blue, pink and green.

I absolutely love this fairy. I collect angels and fairies and I am absolutely thrilled with this purchase. She adds so much charm to my display. It has a soft flowing look which is just what I was looking for.

This angelic pixie statue helps me begin every day with a smile! Designed to sit atop a window ledge, garden wall or library shelf, our fawning fairy sculpture spreads her die-cut metal wings. Cast in quality designer resin, this Design Toscano exclusive fairy statue is a treasured collectible and a welcome gift for home or garden!

Embrace Being Tired

Events & Experiences

I had once heard that being tired can make one a better writer. It’s been almost a week since my last blog post, and it was time for a new one. I had another very busy and exhausting day. Okay, first I want to take a moment to confess that we do need rest. We need breaks and days off. I’ve been working 16 hours 7 days a week since the end of the first quarter, and right now all I want to do is curl up and sleep, but I had to write this article today!

Healing Crystal Balls!

I thought it would be elevating if you had a glimpse into what I’ve been up to lately. Hence, me writing this particular blog. I have been visiting exhibitions, fairs, and shows, from wholesale to shops for enhancing my knowledge of crystals.I bought new products – specifically to fill out my inventory for the occasion – I wanted to impress!

From One of the exhibitions in Malaysia!

Crystals have been adored for thousands of years for their awe-inspiring beauty and healing energies. Throughout my home I have crystals in every room to remove negative energies and cleanse the room of any unwanted vibrations which don’t serve ones highest good. It aids in bringing to my life what I choose to manifest.

I got my first crystal two years back and it was an amethyst crystal angel. I used to carry it around in my pocket, meditated with it and it felt great. I used to let it charge in the sun and in the full moonlight. I could tell I felt…different without it. It could just be a psychological thing, or maybe it really had a vibration that reacted well with mine, guess you never really can tell with these things. One day, unfortunately for no reason the crystal slipped out of my pocket and the tip broke off after which I got my second crystal and then my third and so on.

My First Crystal Angel!

So as I explore the beauty and benefits of crystals, I am looking forward to connecting and meeting people who are looking for a crystal for a particular purpose (meditation, protection, love, money, abundance, health, creativity, healing depression, weight loss etc.)

I will write more about crystals, their color, shape and vibration in my next post on Crystals.

Thanks y’all for dropping by my blog. Any and all feedback on it is welcome. Until my next post take care everyone and come back to blog.

Figurative realism~ derived from life

Artist

As you are reading I have evidently started a blog. Indeed I’ve only posted 4 articles but that is 4 more than the previous year and the year before that. So I can give myself a big TICK for that grail. Over the years i have believed in one thing-the only person I have to be better than is the person I was yesterday. I just want to be better.

I’m happy with the balance these days. It’s a little flicker for sure between my imaginative head and that something else mystical that wants to come through the pen. As a visual artist and as someone who tends to get lost in my own writings; I am going to do a quick post on my collection of sensational paintings Inspired by Beauty in all of us.

I always love my collections, but it just happens that this lush, beautiful piece of art is one of my favorites! The first word that comes to mind is independence, especially psychically. It reminds me of a women diving deep for a great pearl of wisdom. I love that I’ve found a way of getting by in this world doing what I love. I feel incredibly fortunate! More than that, this painting gives me an immediate inner thrill or a feeling of strength in women ~in the hope for the future, and power of creation. Women are strong and beautiful, and can be on top of their world, if only they believe they can be.

Thanks ya’ll for reading! I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Effulgence Personified

Artist

Tartan Day

Day One

Let the effulgence personified (i.e., Krishna) shine within our hearts. He is wearing a bright peacock plume on His head, His face is steeped in sweet beauty, His fresh youthfulness is bursting forth, and His flute is pouring out murmuring, nectarous sounds of rapture. On all sides the milkmaids of Vraja, who have blooming, bud-like breasts, worship Him in adoration. Indeed, He is, amazingly, the only enjoyer and the only source of enjoyment in the entire universe.

Time for a Cuppa ~ Silver Needle

Events & Experiences

After a great first day of collecting thoughts for my blog I needed a moment to calm down, relax and enjoy the evening at South City, Gurgaon. So my friend and I decided to have a little tea party at Just for Chai. This restaurant is famous for its Nice laid back homely ambiance and it provides a beautiful attraction for people.

I wanted some iced tea but I was having a hard time choosing a flavor (As they are all very tasty and there are so many to choose from!) My friend recommended Silver Needle (white tea). It was something new and different so I decided to give it a try. He sweetened it for me and it was one of the most delicious teas I’ve ever had!

The tea has a very bright yellow/green color. It’s mellow and light at first. Then comes a very refined, fresh and comfortable aftertaste.The leaves are uniquely beautiful and silver tipped exuding royalty and an exceptional soft, smooth, sweet-silky luxuriousness, delicate and refreshing infusion with a sweet, silky ending.

I would recommend you to try this flavor If you like tea and are looking to enhance the experience, or you’re still trying to figure out which leaf is right for you; I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

Thanks y’all for dropping by my blog. Any and all feedback on it is welcome. Until my next post take care everyone and come back to blog.

Smile!
