Diwali on iDiva.com

I recently wrote an article for iDiva.com on Diwali. Head on over there for some simple Diwali decor ideas. Twinkling lights, loud music, the hustle and bustle, melas and bazaars, chaotic traffic.....I love the countdown to Diwali. Unfortunately, I am missing all the action in Delhi this year (: For me, it is is also a time to reminisce and remember all the beautiful Diwali's back home!

Don't you agree that the two most important décor accessories for Diwali are fresh flowers, numerous diyas and tea lights??

Have fun........and remember to sparkle and smile this festive season :)

An Artist's Home in Melbourne

It is a great morning. My little princess turns four today :) I have celebrations planned all the way to the weekend!

Gazing at an interesting home in Melbourne makes the morning even better! I am struck by the character and warmth of artist Anna Mills home in Melbourne. The home is artistic and eclectic and makes you sit up and notice :) After endless amounts of travel the owners found this home quite by accident. Today it is truly their haven! I like this home for various reasons and one of them is that this home has a personality of its own :)

The living room is very striking. Love the the weathered trunk and the books in the fireplace!




A mosaic of prints from a variety of places looks fabulous in her dining room!




Need I say more :)





I love the kettle. It reminds me of an antique tea kettle my mom has...




White washed walls, a Dega painting and some art work.....




I love everything about this shot. From the handwritten note.....the beautiful words to the words in ink :)
