Hello September!

Greetings with an updated visual from my end! As the new month settling in, I am fully armed with chock full of decor inspirations for fresh month, fresh posts and approaching festivities. Long strings of posts are lined up for the month of September. Day dreaming to concoct new plans and concepts to serve your appetite. Some aqua blue moods and pink and fuchsia carnations which I happened to pick this weekend are adorning blue room to woo away our blue mood. Flowers are my best preference to lift our spirit in this wallowing mood.


 

Presently, we are crammed with all the must know of new life as the young lady leaves home with a bold determination to carve her own path in the life for the future we all envisioned. Once we thought there is still long time but now it’s here and we are genuinely perplexed about how that childhood era ended so soon. We are bit taken aback thinking about picking up our life without her. A great deal of thoughts is racing for this unhappy transition. I guess it's best if we leave these encapsulated feelings untouched for now.

 

                  

On the other hand, I have started to sharpen my creative eye to shake up the festive décor for you all to overcome the great emptiness welled up deep inside me. Happy thoughts and my blog with keen readers like you will surely whittle down the rough phase. Until we meet again, stay connected toodles!

No place like home...

Nothing beats more than belonging in a blissful state of being home after a life affirming and wondrous vacation. Back to the place which triggers a deep emotional feeling of affection and acceptance. Getting all our acts together as we wrap ourselves back in the relishing comfort of our home. Though, still shaking off vacation buzz along with a long list of work entails. Still spinning my wheels and navigating journey’s up and down. Last week went by in a wink nursing the consequences of jet lag & with lingering haze of sleep. Yes, we were in post vacation blues ;) as they call it.

 

 

Regardless, how royal hospitality pampered you but resting your wearing feet and rediscovering yourself in your own home is a wonderful feeling. No matter in how luxurious dwellings we slumbered, but getting into our clean sheets and waking up in our own bed felt heavenly (in the cosiness of that special one and only pillow). In spite of how delectable diverse dishes we had but on our return all our heart was yearning for homemade heartily meal of “khichdi” with “ghee” (the best if enjoyed with bare hands).

 

 

After changing the horizon and kicking back to our comfort bubble, I had a great excuse to give my home a décor therapy (we all need one in once a while, wouldn't you agree?). I took the freedom to indulge in some decorating opportunity and plunked couple of my favorite objects on the table. Every single corner your eye might choose to land was brighten for an inviting sense. 

 

Decorating works as a remedy for me as it tears me away from all the anxiety and wallowing mood. Keeping the very ethos in mind, re-arranging was a pleasant compulsion and a welcome dose of sweetness. Flattering candle lights, and lovely familiar scents wafting from it realize us that, we are home.  

 

  

Definitely, coming back was a delirious feast, and getting back in informality and comfort, set us all free. Now, leisurely, we are soaking up vacation’s laid back vibe and rediscovering ourselves. Settling for ho-hum and adoring some definite perks of being home again. With summer vacations and warm up in weather, we have more reasons to appreciate out door. Long trolling in the ravine, late night movies with milkshakes and chit chats are getting us back to routine bit by bit. Tons to compose and share once we ease down, will be right back to you soon, until we meet again, stay connected on Pinkz Passion's Facebook page. Don't forget to enjoy your weekend, toodles!

 

My Home - My Pride (Tour of Living Room)

Since I have joined this blogging, my powerful nighty sleep has been disappeared. I have been trying to coddle myself to take much needed beauty sleep but nah, the pondering won't let me go back to sleep.

Up in the early wee hours, just about to denote another piece from a place very close to my heart - MY HOME.

As I read once for my chalkboard collection that I can personally attest that all the statements are true for us and for our home.

"Home is where, love resides,

 memories are created,

   friends always belong

      laughter never ends."

Today's room of the day will be our Living Room. I always insist and want Indian influence in my home décor. Though, I don't hesitate to mix and match ethnic and contemporary concepts in my decors. This room is highlighted with the peacock blue (MORPINCHH) with the hint of fuchsia. 

Even though I strongly believe that candles and flowers are must for any decors I consider myself unfortunate (blaming Canadian harsh winters) for not being able to have my own garden for all the season to use fresh flowers for my decors. However, the cold weather here hasn't dampen my spirit and the flowers from my favorite florist shop in the town takes care of  my need of my fresh flowers in decor.   

The highlight of this room is the peacock fire place cover. It was a strong reason for us to lean on that peacock blue colour for the room. These 2 sleek but cozy chairs from pier 1, created inviting appearance with it.

Wanted an unusual frame to go with the flow, found the perfect one which suits the entire area so well. Also want to draw your attention to  my no wire lamp, which is the best find I have from Home Sense Canada is just perfect with my flameless candle.

Before we move further down, I want to confess that me and my husband Aj heart Ganesha. You are about to visualize our 15+ years collections with few new additions in the room.

Many treasured collectibles are waiting to lease on life for a perfect corner, room or wall in new home. Some specially handpicked and bulky brass collectibles from my husband’s travel are still on mission to fit in the home.

Occasionally, with a glint of change in my mind, I take pleasure of transiting them in different corners of home

The modern meets the traditional with the leather couch.

The credit for the modern look in this room goes to my husband Ajay. He fell head over heels for the sofa and I had to incorporate it with the bright colored cushions to get this look.

We both are avid hosts and needed extra space for our gatherings in the room, we initiated to look for something that adds additional sittings in the room and found perfect one, which adds 2 more extra sittings in the room. The center table brings 2 more tables out from both the ends. 

Now the collections show off.  I wanted to have my all Ganesha in one place instead of scattering around the room since I have many of them, but I do take them out on a tour to change the décor atmosphere around us. After lots of hunting found the perfect base to display all.



Yes, we have it all -  lazily swinging jhula one, kukum sprinkled shell one, few being in the form of  the baby and also dancing mundra ones.

I had pleasure sharing our flawless room through my blog, which is our heart in the home. The inspirations and ideas are created after lots of research and my passion of interiors. 

The modern and traditional fusion in our home is pleasing for us as well as our visitors. Hope your stay at our room was pleasant. Hoping to  share detailed family room tour in near future. Till than cheers!
