We did a simple DIY project over the weekend with the kids as part of getting our home ready for Raya.

Naufal’s room had this feature wall that was painted grey. I wasn’t sure what kind of decoration I wanted to do for the wall initially during the house renovation and design phase months ago, so we decided to leave it plain for the time being.

Then recently, I saw this really simple and cute mountain wall nursery on Pinterest and decided that Naufal’s room needs mountains too! 😆

This was actually my first time painting a wall on my own, believe it or not. Pretty easy and so satisfying. Even my kids could do it. We used Kansai Paint PAR Silk and I like how smooth the paint went on with a luxurious silk finish. It’s low VOC and odour, and the best part is it’s easy to wipe clean!

Tonight, I share with you a fraction of my heart. A small part of my beautiful home, the sanctuary, is complete. (just a tiny part but a very special one that means a lot to me)
.
As the chandelier went up this evening, I wasn't even conscious of the tears rolling down my cheeks. And when I did, I quickly wiped them off because I didn't want to leave the contractor wondering (lol). I waited for them to leave and rested for a bit. When the skies turned dark, I switched the lights back on and stood here, embracing every bit of what you're looking at now.
.
Months of hardwork, focus, dedication and consistency led me to where I am today. Nothing was easy or for 'free'. It was pure effort. I worked round-the-clock so that I can get more funds for myself, to continue the renovation works and I still am. Some works are on hold because I don't have enough money to go on. I've had sleepless nights just worrying about the sanctuary. I'm not special. I'm just like you. I work hard for I want and sometimes I breakdown in fear of the unknown.
.
But when I stood here, looking at this completed piece, I remembered that I had in me. I still do. The power to create. The power to believe. My heart is full. This is just a small part of the sanctuary, but it means the world to me now because whenever I feel like I can't go on, this place will remind me why I can. And I will.

love & light,

I knew it’s not gonna be easy owning a house but it’s actually a lot tougher than I thought it would be. I don’t know how parents do it. For me, it was just my dad as the breadwinner and then, us 4 women in his life lols -like how men in the old generations are expected to take full financial care of their family, built like money making machine. Ps: Miss you dad, tq for everything you did for us.

Girls can do anything too. Still thankful that my sisters and I are brought up to be extremely independent. We do it/make it on our own.

PERSONAL simple advices that I didn’t take myself (I’m not a pro, just sharing):
1. Do your survey before buying a house. Consider all aspects, know the building materials etc. I don’t even know what brick my developer used until my neighbour drilled a hole through my wall. I should know more.
2. Do your calculation. Don’t just THINK that you can do it. Numbers will show if you can ACTUALLY do it. Don’t buy what you can’t afford now thinking that you’ll be able to afford in the future. When unexpected hardship like COVID-19 hit, my house was left empty for more than a year. It was more of a liability than an asset to me.
3. Don’t allocate 100% cash budget to renovation because you need cash for electrical appliances, furniture, water filter (lol) and many many many other things you just haven’t realized you needed yet.
4. Never pay 100% (which I did, dumb mistake). Negotiate payment terms.
5. You want nice things, you need to pay. Common sense but ya, don’t expect nice interior with cheap cost. No matter how cheap it is, work is work, there’s still a cost.
6. Hire an interior designer to start from the beginning for less headache. I thought I could do things through Pinterest pictures, I also tried getting quotations on my own, tried to compare prices and all but I still passed it to @be.studio_my in the end. Could’ve saved all that unnecessary hassle.
7. Do it step by step if you can’t afford the renovation. I personally do not want to go in debt(take a loan)/go over budget to do renovation. So, I gave up on backyard extension for now.

Can’t think of anything else for now but you can stay tuned for more #HomeWithDaph 🏠

MBK CENTER is a shopping mall in the Siam district. It is directly connected to BTS National Studiam for easy access.
The souvenir zone on the 3rd floor, where renovation work began in 2019, has been renewed.
Brighter and cleaner than previous sales floor.
The inside of the store has become bright and beautiful, but I think that handling of copy products has increased at some stores. That's not very good.
Many items such as Thai handicrafts, Thai pants, and T-shirts are on sale.

Today, let me teach you a simple way to drill holes in bathroom tiles!
