Hello,<br />
<br />
I totally agree that I took bigger bite than I can chew this time. I got super busy with volunterring at Sadguru Program and also for local community, with crazy work hours, it became hard. But hey, I am glad I started this, atleast room is in much better shape than it was before. But I promise I will finish off soon to show off the room.<br />

Setbacks and progress<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Welcome to 5th week of ORC. Just one more week to go and there are wayyy too many things to accomplish and I am running way behind.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59c87847ccc5c52c085586db/t/5bda554bcd8366e93789554a/1541035343831/Fall+Wk+5.png?format=500w" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="400" data-original-width="400" height="320" src="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/59c87847ccc5c52c085586db/t/5bda554bcd8366e93789554a/1541035343831/Fall+Wk+5.png?format=500w" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Good Things first<br />
<br />
1. Curtains have arrived, rods have been installed and all ready to be hing. Pom poms add a nice touch to the curtians and luckily the pompom color is similar to our accent color.<br />
<br />
2. Her closet is almost done and the malm dressers got a no paint makeover. Seriously this was one of the simplest projects and I absolutely heart it.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We decided to go with the curtains for the closet instead of the bifold doors.<br />
<br />

<br />
3. We are working on a tie and dye project as we speak<br />
4. Hopefully hubs will install some shelving<br />
5. DIY chandelier is coming along well and Little missy has been helping me with that.<br />
<br />
Now onto major setback :( our accent wall. This one has taken soo much of my time. I feel I have spent more time on ladder in taping and sealing the tape than actually painting. Then finally when I thought everything is done, I ended up with checkered wall not the buffalo pattern as I intended.<br />
<br />
This is a big bummer as I am already stressed out with too many half done projects (nope not just for ORC, other projects I am working on for two community events)<br />

Hi All,<br />
<br />
Welcome back to week2 of ORC.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
After lot of back and forth, we were finally able to decide on the plan and Order few things. Man, I have a tough client, I am now worried that whether I will be able to meet the expectation of my first client :D<br />
<br />
Other than ordering few essentials for the makeover and deciding on the plan, I havnt even started any work in the room. Hopefully I will be able to get my hands dirty this weekend. <br />
<br />
DD doesnt want to change the wall color from Pink family. Wall behind the bed will painted in my favorite Gingham pattern while rest of the room will get a fresh coat of existing pink. it was really tough convincing her to try this pattern. Finally she fell in love with the color combination in this <a href="https://www.spoonflower.com/wallpaper/4387915-large-buffalo-check-bright-pink-by-domesticate">spoon flower wallpaper.</a><br />

Closet will hopefully get a bifold door. I am looking for something which can also offer some storage behind the door. If I dont find some thing taht we both agree upon, plan B is up the sleeve.<br />
<br />
She wants a Ombre gallary wall on the wall opposite to bed with some thing for storage. So that we can get rid of the dresser. I love what Elsei and Emma did over <a href="https://abeautifulmess.com/2016/04/ombre-gallery-wall.html">abeautifulmess</a><br />

Welcome people!! I am back after a loooong hiatus!! It is that time of the year again when one room challenge fever hits the bloggers!! This year has been crazy personally; blogging and home decor took a back seat. What's better than this 6 weeks challenge to get this momma out of hibernation!<br />

I have participated in <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/05/dining-room-makeover-reveal.html">Spring 2016</a> and <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/05/boho-eclectic-living-roomentry-way.html">Spring 2017</a> ORC which resulted in two beautiful room makeovers.<br />
<br />
After some serious competition between the kitchen/family room, guest bedroom and daughter's bedroom, dear daughters room emerged as the winner. We did her room over many moons ago when she was a toddler. It has good bones, nicely lit and slightly larger than her brother room. Since DD is a middle schooler now it's high ime her room reflects true her: fun loving, charming, happy go lucky, chatterbox, kind hearted, heart and soul of our family.<br />
<br />
Here is how her room looks today.<br />

Bed was part of bunk bed in its last form which went thru <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/01/upholstered-twin-bed-for-daughter.html">transformation</a>.<br />
<br />
Desk and dresser is hand me over from her brother which were craigslist buys. Desk went thru transformation (read <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/03/desk-makover-from-dingy-and-dull-to.html">here</a>) and dresser stayed as is. That Night stand (??) has been with us forever, time to bid a good bye.<br />
<br />
Here is the plan for the next 5 weeks.<br />
- Paint over, move away from pink but keep the bead board wainscotting (read <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/04/beadboard-wainscotting.html">here</a>)<br />
- Closet doors. I hated the sliding doors she had. When I did her closet (read <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/01/closet-organization-using-ikea-malm.html">here</a>) last year I threw those away. Though she is organized, I need to cover these. May be Curtains or the bi-fold doors?<br />
- May be bigger bed if budget permits<br />
- Corner Desk<br />
- Floating Shelves<br />
- Curtains for the window<br />
- Chandelier<br />
- bulletin board<br />
<br />
Cant wait to get my hands dirty!! Now off to <a href="http://www.callingithome.com/blog/2018/4/one-room-challenge-fall-2018-week-1">callling it Home</a> and check out all other amazing guest bloggers participating in this challenge. Its all overload of inspiration out there.<br />
<br />
Be sure to stop by next thursday to check out my progress.<br />

Great day every one!!!<br />
<br />
Nested Tables makeover was one of the projects I did it during the spring one room challenge. I never got to post the tutorial on the same, so here it is.<br />
<br />
Before the tutorial, would like to show you a comparison of before and after<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I got the nested tables on craigslist. Bamboo tops on the nested table were held by few srews and I was glad that I could remove those if needed.<br />
<br />
After removing the top and giving nice wipe down, I spray painted the tables in Blue. Legs were spay painted in gold to achieve the gold dipped look.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_S3bUCxIgPTWcMgoyG_eo5X0oBnrhSWSA-RSY-sOEWqff-R-aKhNjCFAaYiBzXxRYD-7sq3zhaSswKZwj0BVG-ifRUJoItggneewl1xDC1qGhRBzgszk28umYA6oPfYgceF8rFgBKymy/s1600/GoldDippedNEstingTables.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="525" data-original-width="700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_S3bUCxIgPTWcMgoyG_eo5X0oBnrhSWSA-RSY-sOEWqff-R-aKhNjCFAaYiBzXxRYD-7sq3zhaSswKZwj0BVG-ifRUJoItggneewl1xDC1qGhRBzgszk28umYA6oPfYgceF8rFgBKymy/s1600/GoldDippedNEstingTables.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
For the top, I was looking for something very colorful and some that I can change based on the vibes or decor in the room or my mood (lol). On the top of bamboo top, I added flexi glass. This allows me to add fabric, paper or any thing I want :) Also protecting it from the spills and stains.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hola dear Friends,<br />
<br />
How are you all? Howz summer coming along? With a high school kid entering into senior year and doing internships, things are littel crazier at home. I am glad we were able to steal a week for Washington DC trip. Sorry I have been little lazy on the blog front this summer. Will pull my socks up and try to be regular!!!<br />
<br />
I am back with the lampshade makeover done using the Khun (Guledgudda Khana) fabric for the ORC living room makeover.<br />

<br />
Steps are pretty simple. All that you need are fabric of your choice, spray adhesive, lampshade, stitch witchery, Hot glue Gun and ofcourse scissors.<br />

<br />
<br />
1. Cut the fabric to desired length (Since this is a circular drum shade, a straight cut was good). Attach the stitch whitechery at one end.<br />

<br />
2. Spray the adhesive on the lampshade and lay the fabric on to it. Using the credit card, smoothen it out. Once it comes to the end, seal it by ironing both ends with stitch whitchery, add hotglue if needed<br />

Before calling off, little details on this beautiful fabric called Khun (GuledGudda Khana or Khanna) . Its a handloom fabric, hand oven using pure cotton thread and silk yarn available in northern part of Karnataka (this is where both me and my husband are from) and Maharashtra (Two States of India). Most of us from these region have fond memories of this fabric mainly used to make blouses that goes with Ilkal Sarees.<br />
<br />
Is there anything in your home that evoke your childhood memories, would love to hear!!<br />
<br />
Until I catch you all next time, Enjoy rest of the summer!<br />
<br />
Love<br />

This is the first room one gets to see after entering. Other than entering/exiting the room doesnt get much of use. This room is used mostly while enetrtaining our guests.

Welcome back to week4 of One Room Challenge.<br />
<br />
This weekend was very eventful with me completing another half marathon.<br />
<br />
Lot of good things happened this week.<br />
- I was able to fix the sofa dilemma.<br />
- Ordered a pair of chairs to replace the love seat.<br />
- Lamp shade has been recovered<br />
- Nesting Tables are ready.<br />
<br />
I m still on the fence with grasscloth wallpaper. I received the wall paper yesterday. Most of the people on net suggests to smoothen the wall and prime it before applying the wallpaper. Hopefully I will find someone to install it for little cheaper.<br />
<br />
Here is the Lampshade<br />

Welcome back to third week of One Room challenge. <br />
<br />
We are past halfway mark. There hasn't been significant change in the way room looks but I do have few updates. <br />
<br />
Let me start with good parts first<br />
<br />
- Fabric for the lampshades arrived. Here is the sneak peak of the
lampshade. I haven't covered it yet, this was just to see how it looks. <br />
<br />

<br />
- Pillow covers will be mix of few DIYs and few store brought. Most of my online shopped pillow covers are here and I am loving what I see.<br />

- Dresser will have kalamkari (Printing technique famous in southernpart of India) runner. I was able to get the fabric for the same too. Here is the fabric I have got for this makeover<br />

- Coffee table is going to get a face uplift and the add on is on the way.<br />
<br />
<br />
Now on to not so good parts :<br />
<br />
I am still on the lookout for the side table with storage. There are two major setbacks tough :(<br />
<br />
<b>Grass cloth wallpaper</b> <br />
<br />
I have been dreaming about the grasscloth wallpaper in the entry way. Since its the first room as soon as you enter our home and I didn't want it to look all DIYed, so have been looking around for professional installer. My dreams were shattered by the price he quoted. Installation and prep work will cost me good 2k, which I am not currently ready to spend. So, DIY it is. <br />
<br />
I looked at various options, since our walls are textured, most of the options says prep the wall. I am worried about what happens when we decide to take them down. If the wall will end up damaged. To be honest, I am little worked up at the moment<br />
<br />
<b>Seating</b><br />
<br />
Since this room gets very use, Hubs isnt ready on spending moolah on this room. So new sofa is not happening. That means I have to come up with option B which is to upholster this beast. If I complete <br />
everything on my list by this weekend, I might give this a try. <br />
<br />

Week 2 of One Room challenege is here and I am little too late to the party this week. This is the week where most of the designing and planning happens. While I am still struggling to decide on the couch and side tables, I was able to order few things.<br />
<br />
Here is the grand plan for this Global Boho/electic Entry Way/Living Room.<br />
<br />
1. Grasscloth Wallpaper -> I have been drooling over Grasscloth Wallpapered rooms lately. So decided to take the plung and ordered the wallpaper. Time to get to other tasks in the list as the wallpaper is expected in last week of April.<br />
2. Curtain Panels -> Still Searching<br />
3. Replace Side tables -> Got one, debating on the other as I need some storage too<br />
4. Bring in more plants<br />
5. Collage for the wall between two windows -> WIP<br />
6. This rooms flows into the stairs and also the dining room. need to figure out how to devide both the spaces. Some sort of dividers may be.<br />
7. Redo Coffee Table<br />
8. Chairs instead of love seat (??)<br />
9. replace sofa (??)<br />
10. Spray Paint Ginger Jar Lamps<br />
11. Lamp Shades<br />
12. Bring in more colorful pillows (If 8 and 9 doesnt happen upholster the existing sofa and ditch the pillows)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/03/ikea-vittasjo-nesting-coffee-table-goes.html">Coffee table</a>, <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2013/12/used-inlay-stencil-on-what.html">Indian inlay stenciled cornices</a>, <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2015/08/fabric-wrapped-dual-tone-dresser.html">Two toned Dresser</a>, Elephant plant stand and Corner stand stays.<br />

Hi Friends,<br />
<br />
Woo hoo, I am taking the plunge again and diving deep into One Room Challenge Hosted by Linda of <a href="http://www.callingithome.com/">callingithome</a> I had a whale of time last time during last Spring while transforming our <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/05/dining-room-makeover-reveal.html">dining room</a>. This time Entry Way/Living Room is the lucky room to go thru transformation in 6 weeks.<br />
<br />
For those who dont know, One Room Challenge is bi-annual blogging event where designers transform the chosen room in 6 weeks time. There are two categories. One for selected few designers who publish their progress on wednesdays and other is for the guest participants where hundreds of designers/bloggers take you thru their progress on Thursdays.<br />
<br />
Here is our Entry Way in its current glory.<br />

These side tables needs to be replaced with something better and with the storage option. If not both, atleast one would be better with storage option.<br />
<br />
Pretty much everything else stays or may come back transformed.<br />
<br />
Cant wait to come up with the plan to transform this room :)<br />

yay!!! I am so excited, Finally reveal week is here. Not just I get to show you all what our Pantry went thru, I also get to see what other bloggers did to transform their space for under $100. This is the first time I joined Erin's challenge, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you So much to Erin from <a href="http://www.lemonslavenderandlaundry.com/">lemons, lavender and Laundry</a> for hosting this challenge.<br />
<br />
<br />
Per the plan I shared during<a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/03/kitchen-pantry-makeover-for-100-room.html"> week1</a>. I was able to accomplish most of it.<br />
<br />
- <strike>Extend the shelves to wrap around. There is about 9" space on the sides.</strike><br />
<strike>- Paint and stencil the back</strike><br />
<strike>- Paint the shelves</strike><br />
- Build/Buy lazy Susan to access/fully utilize the corners<br />
<strike>- Utilize the pantry door</strike><br />
<strike>- Explore Storage ideas for different groups.</strike><br />
<strike>- Maximize the vertical space. </strike><br />
<br />
Here comes the Pantry in its full glory.<br />

I was able to organize the containers based on their frequency of use. The ones with most use occupied the lower shelves and less used ones on the upper shelves. <br />

The side shelves which we added made the day and night difference in the appearance of the pantry. All the items that are needed but not very appeasing to eyes are stored in the side shelves. </div>

Hi All,<br />
<br />
It's week 4 of one room makeover for under 100 dollars.<br />
<br />
If you are joining me for the first time, I shared the before and plan in <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/03/kitchen-pantry-makeover-for-100-room.html">Week1</a>, Progress in <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/03/kitchen-pantry-makeover-for-100-room_13.html">Week2</a>, I couldnt post any thing for Week3.<br />
<br />
I was able to finish stenciling the Pantry over the weekend and I love how stenciling has transformed this tiny place.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9ofE02gYyRkAbXV0LRc0u3P36fRoVf627e1SicruSaDoeksPjzusb6ezA65PGwc6PTOYzmlGQNBTEV2UnhRctXxZIjRxMKHcE8bnzs9YWh8F_HK96d47OoJ3BOlI3Qoo03O0cEvvUnenH/s1600/Pantry_Stencil7.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="stencilled Pantry" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9ofE02gYyRkAbXV0LRc0u3P36fRoVf627e1SicruSaDoeksPjzusb6ezA65PGwc6PTOYzmlGQNBTEV2UnhRctXxZIjRxMKHcE8bnzs9YWh8F_HK96d47OoJ3BOlI3Qoo03O0cEvvUnenH/s1600/Pantry_Stencil7.JPG" title="Pantry" /></a></div>
<br />
I am not new to stencilling, I have tried all sort of stenciling, One with home made template in <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2013/12/painted-wallpaper-in-laundry-room.html">laundry</a>, without template in my daughter's <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2017/01/closet-organization-using-ikea-malm.html">closet</a> and using all over stencil in <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/05/dining-room-makeover-reveal.html">Dining Room</a>. This one was very easy as this didnt involve measuring.<br />
<br />
Each shelf varied in height, I just kept stencilling by alligning stencil once on the top and once on the bottom.<br />
<br />

<br />
I used acrylic paint (left over from <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/02/diy-canvas-art-for-teenagers-bedroom.html">this project</a>) and painter's brush.<br />
<br />

<br />
After painting each, I made sure to wipe the stencil's back so that there is no paint smudging.<br />

<br />
Total budget spent so far :- 58.40 (Till last week) +1 = $59.40<br />

Hi All,<br />
<br />
Since I joined the party little late, I don't have much to share as this weeks progress. Only thing I could was to empty the Pantry, add a shelf on the top to increase the vertical space and add the side shelves.<br />
<br />
I had one particle board provided by the from the Master Closet. I was hoarding it since the <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/06/master-closet-3rd-side-and-final-reveal.html">closet makeover</a>. Part of it was used as the top most shelf, rest used for side shelves. I was little short on wood but I was able to get another small piece of particle board from a dear friend. Since I had everything on hand, I used around 8 dollars for the screws and side support .<br />

I ordered the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MA5H78T/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1">vertical storage shelf</a> for the back of the pantry door. This took little more than half of my budget ($50.40)<br />

<br />
<br />
Here comes the pending task list. Since I have the Paint/caulk, I don't have spend anything on these.<br />
<br />
- Caulk the newly added shelves<br />
- Paint the shelves<br />
- Paint the pantry<br />
- Stencil<br />
- I went shopping in the house and found 2 more baskets similar to the blue ones but in Pink. since I would be storing food, I am not comfortable doing spray painting on these. Planning to use the fabric. Time to raid my stash of scrap fabric.<br />
<br />
Total budget spent so far :- 50.40 + 8 = 58.40<br />
<br />
Its going to be an uphill task but I am all geared and excited!!<br />
<br />

Now that the guest bathroom is totally done (not yet posted on the blog), I am moving onto the other pending projects. I came across post from Erin who blogs over <a href="http://www.lemonslavenderandlaundry.com/">http://www.lemonslavenderandlaundry.com/</a> regarding one room make over under the budget of 100 dollars in 4 weeks time. Tight deadlines gives me enough kick to finish off the project in a given timeline, there is no way I could let this opportunity go. Since I hopped onto this wagon little late, I get only 3 weeks to finish it. I guess, I can mange that.<br />

<br />
There were serious contenders like Laundry room, Guest bedroom, Kids bathroom and Kitchen pantry. Kitchen Pantry finally emerged as the winner :) Our Pantry is pretty small, its about 64" wide and 26" deep. I can step in but not walk-in. Like any other builder grade pantries, it has shelves 16" deep. This is how it looks currently.<br />

<br />
You see, it is fully functional but lacks the form. So here is the plan.<br />
<br />
- Extend the shelves to wrap around. There is about 9" space on the sides.<br />
- Paint and stencil the back<br />
- Paint the shelves<br />
- Build/Buy lazy Susan to access/fully utilize the corners<br />
- Utilize the pantry door<br />
- Explore Storage ideas for different groups.<br />
- Maximize the vertical space. The top most shelf is huge. We keep less used stuff there. May be we can add another shelf less deeper.<br />
<br />
Thanks to Erin for organizing this and motivating me to modify a space without putting a dent in my budget.<br />
<br />
Cant wait to see all the amazing transformations from other Partcipants and their frugal ideas to stick to the budget.<br />

Our dining room make over was inspired by our Bahamas Vacation. Along with turquoise blue waters, sand and beach, inspiration was drawn from a stop over at the Quizons sub too. While waiting for the order, subway art style wall caught my eye. I wanted to incorporate this subway style art in the dinig room and here is the result :). Do you like it as much as I do?<br />

Here is how it looked once done. Loved the look but there was tiny problem. It was short!!!<br />

I got the length all wrong. Standard plywood measures 6 ft long which is 72 inches. I was thinking that it is 9 ft. Extended the panel on the either side by adding the wood. I had mixed two stains to match it with dining table. I had just eyeballed, so it was difficult to get the exact same color. So ended up updating the either sides of the panel with hand made stencil. Mr. Techie helped me to hang it using the corner brackets<br />

Hi Every one, how are u all? After all most a month of rain, sun is finally out since couple of days.<br />
<br />
We had the builder provided chandelier in the dining room. While I was working on the one room challenge, I had planned to spray paint it or wrap in yarn in teal blue. I fell short of time and I couldnt touch the chandelier. While we were shooting for the reveal, my husband was holding it to avoid the glare in the photoes and boom....It snapped. Luckily, it snapped when he was still holding it.<br />
<br />
Here is a before<br />

Hello and Happy New Year Dearies!!<br />
<br />
How are you all? How was your new year celebration and Holidays? We had a nice vacation on a cruise to Mexico, came back with lots of inspiration and colorful ideas.<br />
<br />
My younger one has been bugging me over her closet for a while. Since she helps me with her laundry and folds her cloths (using this <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/06/tshirt-tops-folder-using-cereal-box.html">template</a>), she was annoyed with lack of usable space. I had promised her I will give her one before her 9th birthday. I couldnt keep up with my promise as I got busy with the<a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2016/05/dining-room-makeover-reveal.html"> One room Challenge</a>. Its never late to fulfill a promise, we finally worked on her closet during thanks giving break.<br />
<br />
Here is how it looks now :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The closet was a bulider grade closet, all that it had was storage cube and a dresser. now, you know why she was upset, right? I cant belive I am sharing this on internet, this is how the closet looked before.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I emptied the closet and gave couple of coats of pink, same as rest of the room.<br />

She wanted a hint of blue in the closet and she chose the pattern for the back wall. Though the most of it got covered with dressers, I drew the lines and went over with navy blue.<br />

We have used Ikea Malm dressers in the <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/06/master-closet-3rd-side-and-final-reveal.html">master closet</a> and pretty happy with them. So again we used the dressers hold all her clothes, few knick-knacks and collectibles. we also added three shelves on either side to hold the books.<br />

Hi Dearies, how are you all? Did u set up the tree yet? If you are looking for an idea to decorate the tree with the ribbon, here is one. Here is tutorial for criss cross ribbon wrapped tree.<br />
<br />
- Measure your tree and the length of the ribbon should be 1.5 times the length of the tree. <br />
- Take 8 such ribbon pieces and tie the edges with a safety pin.<br />
- Spread them around the tree in 8 directions<br />
- Start tieing two ribbons together with a string, for the first row you will have 4 joins. <br />
- For the next round, take one each from the joined ribbons and tie them. It should look some thing like this<br />

Hi Dearies,<br />
<br />
This week was pretty special as we celebrated festival of lights (Deepawali), all set to celebrate Halloween and spent much of the weekend in setting up the Christmas Tree. Setting up Christmas Tree in October? Yup, the tree is setup for the support of breast cancer awareness month.<br />
<br />
I was one of the bloggers who partnered with Tree Classics in spreading the awareness! <span style="text-align: center;">This post is in honor of Supporting the </span><span style="color: #d5a6bd; text-align: center;">Fighters, </span><span style="text-align: center;">Admiring the </span><span style="color: #d5a6bd; text-align: center;">Survivors, </span><span style="text-align: center;">Honoring the </span><span style="color: #d5a6bd; text-align: center;">Taken</span><span style="text-align: center;"> </span><span style="text-align: center;">and </span><span style="color: #d5a6bd; text-align: center;">NEVER EVER GIVING UP HOPE!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #d5a6bd; text-align: center;"><span style="color: black;">Tree Classics trees are very realistic with life like branches. I
selected Classic Fraser Fir (Full) - 6.5 Clear Lights and it was
delivered promptly. Tree parts were neatly wrapped in the bubble wrap
with additional packaging to make sure the box doesn't get squished.
Setting up the tree was very quick.</span> </span><br />

This cause is pretty close to heart, this beast has hit close to base and took my Aunt away from us at an early age! I know few fighters who won against this monster. I guess any woman would be dreaded to her those three words "You have cancer". Early detention is the greatest prevention when it comes to breast cancer. All adult women are encouraged to do self examination at least once a month. Here is <a href="http://www.nationalbreastcancer.org/breast-self-exam">how to on breast self exam</a><br />
<br />
The tree is with decked up in Pink and Silver with the golden ribbon draped around in crisscross fashion. <br />

Hi Dearies, how are u all? Sorry for missing in action for the past couple of months. Entire summer was little crazy with a high school junior at home, me practicing for half marathon and a new addition to the family. Life got so busy that I didnt even have time to pen down some of my one room challenge projects. Today I am here with a tutorial for DIY Napkin Rings.<br />
<br />

I love projects which are quick, easy and free.<br />
<br />
All you need for this project is a cardboard roll (kitchen towel roll works too), fabric of your choice, xacto knife to cut the roll, hot glue.<br />
<br />

<br />
During one room challenge, for our dining room, I made the magnetic world map. Here comes the tutorial for the same.<br />
<br />
Me and my husband both love travelling to new destinations. With both kids being little older, exploring new destinations is more exciting. Along with loads of photographs and tons of memories, my husband also brings quite a few fridge magnets. I had made <a href="http://techiesdiyadventures.blogspot.com/2014/09/magnetic-picture-frame.html">magnetic picture frames</a> few years back but soon the collection increased and frames were running out of space. Whats better than the world map to display our travel souvenirs?<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGMKKXS15EwI2knNAMK567ic83z8JWaw-XPOhPhgBi6oAQ7h8ThcJNSzGllMy_IQrUVxZIdHWrWqRrv2mpxQEAoxmwrZRlcNE0Me3HweYF5l2_wCx7f2xGqra7q1VllLgG6p1yYOjZKEz7/s1600/Magnetic+World+Map+wall+art.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGMKKXS15EwI2knNAMK567ic83z8JWaw-XPOhPhgBi6oAQ7h8ThcJNSzGllMy_IQrUVxZIdHWrWqRrv2mpxQEAoxmwrZRlcNE0Me3HweYF5l2_wCx7f2xGqra7q1VllLgG6p1yYOjZKEz7/s1600/Magnetic+World+Map+wall+art.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Before we start on how to do it, here is a closeup of the map wall art. It is 60" by 36".<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0GFiJxWzaRn1z_y3hEF2dTrhUbZRIsPUydHUqu8vCOn77qPtGayyfm0B08vNYC6ddquUCcaLX2rBogYXBhmU1HvEKoeiDY83zX7yGEqK0V_R0OLQmHTx1yDG3B4VZrpYJmPrzIWkir2De/s1600/Magnetic+World+Map.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0GFiJxWzaRn1z_y3hEF2dTrhUbZRIsPUydHUqu8vCOn77qPtGayyfm0B08vNYC6ddquUCcaLX2rBogYXBhmU1HvEKoeiDY83zX7yGEqK0V_R0OLQmHTx1yDG3B4VZrpYJmPrzIWkir2De/s1600/Magnetic+World+Map.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Since the map was 55" by 39",I had to cut off the top and bottom part a little. Also added the craft paper to the right most end of the art.<br />
<br />

Creating a beautiful, picture-perfect bedroom for your
children is right up there with having your house featured in <i>Architectural Digest </i>and winning the
lottery in terms of achievability —it’s probably not going to happen. While
most of us would love to have our kids’ rooms look like something out of a
Pinterest board, reality usually makes this dream unachievable. Thankfully, at <a href="https://modernize.com/"><span style="color: #1155cc;">Modernize</span></a>
we have a few tricks up our sleeve. Here are a few of our top tips for creating
a beautifully styled bedroom for your children while staying realistic and
without breaking the bank.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Decorating a kids’ bedroom on the cheap is actually much
easier than it sounds. We all know that kids are professional crafters, so
embrace their inner artists and get to making. Cardboard and cloth bunting,
pompom garlands, and papier mâché stars are all fun and simple DIY projects
that you and your children can complete together. We also love the idea of
framing your kids’ artwork and displaying it throughout the room to complete
the look: choose pieces with bright, bold colors and fun patterns or pictures to
make their art really stand out.</div>

Upcycling is super trendy and inexpensive, so it works
perfectly for your kids’ bedroom. Reuse your own childhood and vintage wooden
toys for shelf decorations, turn old wicker and fabric baskets and gift boxes
into storage for toys and clothing, and repaint an old dresser or sideboard for
more storage or a retro changing station. The options are endless when it comes
to upcycling, so use your imagination and create something beautiful without
spending tons of money at the store.<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Add a bit of green </b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Nothing styles a room quite like fresh-cut flowers and
greenery, but we all know that delicate things and kids don’t really mix.
Artificial flowers are a convenient and inexpensive solution since they last
forever, so choose a bright bouquet to adorn your kids’ bedside table and you
won’t have to worry about damage. If you want to cut costs further, use
cuttings from your own backyard. Just make sure to replace them often, and
remember that kids have a tendency to put everything in their mouths!<o:p></o:p></div>

<b>Keep it tidy</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Regular cleaning and organization keeps the focus on the
decor and style of a room instead of clutter, so encourage your children to
keep their bedroom as neat and tidy as possible. Underbed storage boxes,
bookshelves, baskets, and a well-organized closet will give your kids plenty of
room to keep their most prized possessions without feeling overcrowded. This
relatively simple step costs nothing and could actually end up making you money
if you periodically look for unused items to resell or donate to charity. We
also recommend rotating toys and clothing monthly and keeping unused items in
storage until they are needed to maximize space and minimize mess. <o:p></o:p></div>

Hi All,<br />
<br />
Howz summer vacation coming along? Ours is kind of very busy between camp drop offs/pick ups, cooking over time. :)<br />
<br />
My little one turned 9 last month and has been after me to assign her more chores. So she has been managing laundrying her clothes which includes folding too. Pants/shorts were easier but tops/tshirts made her whine. How much ever she tried, she would mess up while folding. I had seen this idea on Facebook few months back, so I decided to give it a try.<br />
<br />
All that you need for this is either a shoe box or cereal box, scissor and tape.<br />
<br />
Procedure to make the folder.<br />
<br />
Open the cereal box carefully<br />

The chairs are very comfortable but the boring back always drove me crazy. When I told hubby dear that I am going to do some thing for the back, he didn't want something permanent and I didnt want to apply any appliques. While I was scoring internet for ideas, I came across <a href="http://www.dimplesandtangles.com/2014/01/spotted-louis-style-chairs.html">this post</a> from dimples and tangles and decided to use fabric.<br />
<br />
All that you need for this project is fusible backing material, fabric, glue dots, trim and some hot glue.<br />
<br />
- Trace the template using the chair. Cut the fusible backing material and fabric using the template<br />
