Painting!

We spent most of the past Memorial Day weekend painting. Well, Sze-jun did and I helped by pointing out missed spots or attempting to use the roller.

Sze-jun: "But you'll get tired!"
Christine: "No I want to help!!"
Sze-jun: "Um.... ok."
.... after a few minutes of painting
Christine: "Ok I'm tired."

Here is the hubby painting the accent wall in the living room.


Our new 'atmosphere blue' bedroom!


The completed accent wall, now 'stone' colored.


We got our paint from Restoration Hardware. I was curious where exactly their paint comes from. For example, Pottery Barn branded paint is actually sourced from Benjamin Moore Paints.

Landscaping ideas

We like to get ideas for landscaping simply by taking walks through our neighborhood and checking out what other houses have done. Houses around our area have done some beautiful things to their landscaping.



The video's a bit blurry, but you can get a feel for what this house did with their front yard. It's so organized and clean!
