I absolutely adore these cute Bow Bins from AreaWare.com. Created by German designer, Cordula Kehrer, the bins are produced by the indigenous Aeta people of the Philippines via fair trade NGO Preda. These whimsical bins are made from sustainably harvested rattan and reclaimed bins. The rattan and colourful plastic combination is so eye-catching. I would love to have a few in my home.
While my spouse was reading a catalog on pool disability access lifts, I decided to surf the internet, looking for a housewarming gift for a friend. I was at H&M Home and came across so many gorgeous items. Should I also get a few things for my home too? Oh they really made me want to give my home a makeover. Here are a few things that caught my eye.

Summer time means spending lots of time outdoors or long evenings on the porch. If you have lots of space in your home and also love spending your time swinging away, then you may want to check out some lovely swings. Check out this Barrel Swing from The Conran Shop. This charming swing chair is made of recycled French oak barrel staves from Stellenbosch Winery. It is suspended from nylon ropes. The swing can carry a maximum weight of 350lbs. There is nothing better than spending some cozy time with your loved ones on the swing.
You know how much I love products made from bamboos eh? Well, when I spotted these awesome idea from Pinterest, I just had to blog about it. Get a few bamboo steamers in different sizes (available at most Asian grocery stores), remove the bottom and glue the steamers together. When secured, hang the bamboo steamers on the wall with nails or picture hooks and use them as storage. A very unique and eco-friendly way to store small items and even portable baby monitors if you like.
I am supposed to check out the eotech sights as a Father’s Day gift but I thought I’ll share with you what I really want this summer. It is none other than a hammock. I just love lounging in one. A hammock is so relaxing. There is nothing better than resting on a hammock, reading a book or just do nothing. It would be great to have one inside the house. Yeah, I know a hammock is usually on the porch but I would prefer some privacy. I saw this photo at Apartment Therapy earlier today.
Isn’t this lovely?
I was blog-hopping to my favourite online stores and saw a few things which I love. They are from Anthropologie.com. Below are what I love to have in my home.
This Cement Paper Hurricane is actually a glass for candle. Made from woven strips torn from paper bags.
Love this sea grass woven tumbler
Knotted Melati Hanging Chair made from macrame. Perfect for enjoying the summer breezes.
Woven Sunflower Basket made from bamboo. Great for serving crackers or chips at outdoor parties.
Can you spot any similarities in these items? Well, they are all woven or made from materials like bamboo, sea grass or recycled paper. They are all natural materials and environmentally-friendly.
Before I find out what is testosterone online, let me show you this website which I discovered recently. It is Greenhouse Eco-Friendly Living, a store which specialize in eco-friendly products for the home. Not only every item at Greenhouse is specifically chosen for their beauty, they are also chosen because they were created through ethically and environmentally responsible manufacturing.

One of the things that really irks me and is driving me up the wall is a tangled mess of cords. It does not help that I have a laptop on the dining table and another netbook in the living area. There are just too many cables running all over the place. I think what I need is this AppleCore Cable Managers. It comes in 3 different sizes and shades. The AppleCore Cable Managers are specifically designed to handle all household appliances and are good for long or extra long cables around the house. Available at Apple-Cores.com
Summer is here. Do you have any summer plans to give your home a makeover? When I am done reading up on accutane reviews, I have some plans to jazz up the wall in my living room. Are you bored with your dull-looking wall? I saw these two wonderful tips on how you can decorate the wall. They are pretty easy to do.
A wall full of wooden embroidery hoops in different sizes and various colourful fabric. A brilliant idea indeed.
