Newly Weds on A Budget

somethingboutrenes — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 13:50:31 +0000

Was blog surfing and saw “Newly Weds on A Budget” at Steph’s blogroll! This is so us and it is not bad a read! We busted all our credit cards and would have probably accumulated $40k debt on credit cards after our wedding and honeymoon. With all our hard earned savings all poured into our house, wedding and honeymoon, we are starting from ground zero. It reminded me that yes, we need to be the newly weds on a budget too!

Neighbour Blogger

I found another neighbour blogger and I’m glad! These days people blog less, stalk more, talk less, tweet more, write less, tag more.

BAH

// You may realize I’ve been blogging a little too much, because I am BACK! Haha.

I recently chanced upon Velsolutely Velle and found her past posts on renovation really interesting! There are a mix of high end furniture with accessories from unpretentious Ikea! Also through her blog, we found the a local wall decals website – Decorette! Will share some wall decals which we really love!

Yannisms

You know I’ve always been ranting to my friends about the lack of interesting local blog read?! It is not an easy task to find decent blog reads in our tiny island! I enjoy reading blogs with pictures that tell stories, an intriguing write with a fascinating humor and all these in perfect English (which I’m lacking of!)! And I think I found one! All thanks to bookjunkie’s link. I found Yannisms! I love her introduction!

“Hello, my name is Yann. I live in Singapore and I am the quintessential wordsmith. My brains are always filled with words. These days, I try to complement my words with pictures. I’d like to be a better photographer.”

Listening to Feist’s Mushaboom and reading Yann’s posts gave me a warm cozy feeling. It’s perfect for a cool Sunday night. I know… the topics discussed may not be relevant to most of you but I’m sure you can’t resist her charm and wit reflected in her writing!

Interiors Porn

My sister stumbled upon this site and now it is one of my favourite interior inspiration sites!

Sofia – the girl behind this wonder – described her audience as people who can’t stop looking and start to imagine how it would feel like to live in a room like that. People who drool just by looking at the textures, the colours and the light that comes from the large windows. People who dream about it and are addicted to it.

“Your interiors, your porn. Interiors Porn“

She definitely has some tasteful-lust-worthy inspirations in there and I’m amazed by the consistency of all the pictures featured and her ideas are all inline with my desire!

Here are some of my favourites!

The dresser is lovely!

We can do something like that with corridor.

A blackboard wall in our study maybe? I love these plastic white chairs. I’m not having those office looking dull black chairs!

Aww.

I’m glad I found Diana Mini Love to guide me through this mini journey! Created by Elle, she shared many lovely photographs taken with the mini, techniques to perfect our photography skills and introduced us to other Diana Mini loving bloggers! If you are a new Diana Mini owner, you will surely find this blog useful! It motivates me to brush up my skills and I’m all excited to finish a roll of film to see the results!

My Owl Barn

somethingboutrenes — Sun, 12 Sep 2010 12:56:24 +0000

Steph dropped me a mail over the weekend with this link and I was thrilled! Intelligent looking owls, pretty and dainty looking owls, vintage looking owls, clumsy looking owls and many others can be found here! GOSH. Their huge eyes always amazed me and “wise image” makes other birds look silly. But they are all pretty! Hee.

My owl obsessions only revealed itself very recently and it started off with a simple necklace I saw on Steph.

And it led to another which I bought together with Waimun.

Then I realized that Chinese Owls from Beijing are cool too!

Then I spotted this ceramic one for our little loft!

And recently, Siqi added this to my collection!
