Here's wishing you a Happy Friday and a super weekend!

A Stylish Bedside Table

Spotted this on Pinterest today and had to share it with you all. This is such an interesting and unique way to style the bedside table. Vintage photographs, books and wooden boxes.....sigh all the things that are close to my heart. It looks so appealing and seems to tell a  lovely story!

So what do you think of this tabletop display?

Styling Your Coffee Table

I am still unpacking from my trip. Its an exhausting process putting away stuff! I open a closet and end up rearranging everything...sigh! The unpacking exercise is now leading to de -cluttering and a trip to Goodwill is long overdue.

Now for the fun part, as I unpack my finds from Turkey and India, I can't help but redecorate :) I was pretty good and did not shop a lot, however, I could not resist this copper tray! I have placed it on my coffee table and quite like the effect. This got me thinking and............I am motivated to share some ideas with you on how to style your coffee table at home. I would love to hear your suggestions as well. So stay tuned....... as I bring you a few ideas on how to beautify your coffee table and end tables! Hopefully, the entire process will be fun and inspiring :)

Are you in? To begin, can you list a few items that sit on your coffee table.....the ones you cannot do without?

The New Year At My Dream Canvas

Hello there! My apologies for missing in action for a while! As the New Year begins, I am thrilled to be back with all of you! December was a busy month for me. I traveled to Istanbul and absolutely loved my time there. The city was all I had imagined it to be and more! I still have a gazillion pictures to sort through, but I promise that there will be a post up soon. I was also in India for a month. We attended my husbands high school reunion. The reunion was in Rajasthan and for me that was like going home :) As an army brat, my Dad was posted there numerous times! The most rewarding experience was seeing hubby act like a kid and reminisce with his pals :) A memorable experience indeed!

India was all about spending time with  family and friends. Staying at my parents home is therapeutic, it is my safe haven,and the time I spend there is just what I need to recharge my batteries :) I am also thrilled about the brand new collection coming soon to the Shop At My Dream Canvas. I had so much fun shopping in Turkey and India. This collection is truly a treasure trove. You don't want to miss the launch coming up soon :)

This New Year I want to keep things simple. I want to be happy and spread happiness around, I want to count my blessings and I want to work towards achieving my personal goals. What about you ? How is the New Year treating you so far? Drop me a line and lets chat shall we :)
