Down, dirty and OC

Jun 12, 2007 13:55

The long weekend was okay--a little bit eventful, a bit tiring, a bit lazy. The worst part was having to work on a Sunday (Vox Pop shoot, ugh), details of which I won't delve into anymore (suffice it to say that Serendra's got verrry yummy albeit pricey fare).

The fun stuff na lang!

Saturday was sofa shopping day! Went to Our Home with my mom to finally pick out and purchase a nice new sofa set. Our choice was just perfect. I can't wait till it's delivered to our place. We got a two- and one-seater of an "Armani" design: dark chocolate brown on the outside, and creamy natural on the inside. The cushion has lovely subtle front stitching that just spells fab!

The best part is, of course, that it all looks expensive but really isn't. (Which is always the goal with everything done on a budget, anyway!)

I got my fingers dirty from mixing paint yesterday afternoon. And I mean Boysen semi-gloss, not Guitar watercolors. As usual, I was assaulted by an attack of obsessive-compulsiveness. I swirled in ounces of dark chocolate brown and bright yellow into the existing bucket of avocado-mint green until I got just the right shade of olive. Now the color's turned classy. It's just purrrfect on the walls!!! And perfect for the sofas! *swoon*

(I am convincing myself right now that I can be an interior designer without the education or license.)

Hahaha. I swear, let me paint, just don't let me cook!
