crazeemum: Crazeemum is still alive and kicking! an overview of #theshoeboxhouseofUs #Shabbychichome

Hi yah mommies:-)

How are you? Me, I miss blogging. Crazeemum is so busy in work and in the shoeboxhouse of us. Plus, my ne tbook was broken pa. Huhuhu!

If you are my followers in Instagram or my FB friends, you should know that I am busy decorating our #shoeboxhouse of Us into a shabby chic home.

The idea of decorating the shabby chic home started last quarter of the year and since then, I am busy window shopping, reading real living magazines, browsing net. I also went to divisoria, uniwide and various thrift shops to score perfect decors, accessories and furniture's.

I fell in love with Shabby Chic Home because of its simplicity. The pastel colors bring very light feeling in the house and I can express my craziness in decorating #theshoeboxhouseof Us plus it does not require a large amount of money..

WE can make so many DIY's like this:

1. Wall painting. We chosew light lavender and pink for our living room

oops.. he's not crazeedud, he's our crazeeampun helping us painting the wall.

2. re-painting this cabinet from a flea market

crazeedud's used the paint zoom he bought in Metrodeal

and here's the finished product.

Crazeedud and I visited different thrift shops to look for a distressed furniture's, here we used our bargaining power and got a great deals! Like this...

1. Japanese Table for Php200.00

no need to paint / apply varnish. peg na peg ang distressed furniture

Pefect for Ethan's Tea Party

2. Cabinets and dresser

the cabinet is big enough to store crazeedud's and crazeesun's clothes
for the dresser's story you can read it here

In reading so many inspirations, I learned that shabbychic theme refers to pale colors, white and flowery designs. So, In the #shoeboxhouseofUs, I chose lavender flowery and plain white curtains to match our light lavender and pink walls. I also added a cute black chair ala pastillas and a DIY table made of wood and wall papers.
