I Am Back and A New Pillow

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas holiday with your family and loved ones. We just came back from a 10-day trip to this tiny but densely-populated island in the Pacific called Taiwan. I will write more about that later.

White matter is not the only thing that welcomed us when we got home: our mailbox was jam-packed with parcel notices and mails, a whopping total of 35 pieces to be exact! Other than some Christmas cards and regular mails, a lot of them were from my online shopping obsession! :) It's like Christmas all over again for me when I opened them all up.

The first up is this gorgeous pillow in Braemore's Emperor's Garden Fabric from WhitlockandCo. I had it in my mind for the settee in our foyer. This is all part of a project I am working on to add more colors and styles to our otherwise pretty boring foyer space.

I love the vibrant colours and how happy it looks on the settee.

The other side of the pillow: just as pretty. Btw, I prefer the same fabric (or a different fabric but not plain solid one) on both sides of the pillow.

In our foyer.

In addition to those that are already in the mail, I also managed to do a lot of shopping online (from the faraway land) on Boxing Day. I will share more about that later as well. Remember to check back soon for a new year's giveaway --- you wouldn't want to miss this one!
