Styling: Down the rabbit hole

Alice in Wonderland themed table setting for a photo shoot set up :)

Real Living August 2012

One of the best surprises I got this month was seeing a photo of a set I styled together with the RL team for this month's Decor Ideas section - How to use Decals as Wall Accents - IN THE COVER. Honestly, I didn't expect it! :) so imagine how psyched I was when I realized the cover photo looked really really familiar - "hey, i think we shot this?! Did we?"


So anyway, I hope you guys get a copy of this issue (yeah, i'm always delayed in telling people that lol) but you could still buy it from Zinio app for the soft copy just in case :)

Toribox Cafe

In a nutshell, here's some photos of one of my recent project - TORIBOX CAFE - which is located at 403 F. Calderon Cor. J Abad Santos San Juan City (beside Piandre).

TORIBOX CAFE, SAN JUAN.

It's an Asian-inspired coffee shop which is famous around Taft area (beside DLSU) for their Karaage pops and Katsu's :)

Update: My Bedroom

so it's the New Year! and I changed my bedroom theme to a more contemporary + eclectic mood - from its usual shabby chic theme. my inspiration this time is - Twiggy and the British flag (as seen from my previous post :) since i promised to at least finish my room after graduation (as a gift to myself) and i'm now 95% satisfied :)

 just added a bit of furniture like this shelf, since my books/magazine are starting to pile up like crazy! and also moved this really lovely chair (i got from my aunt & had reupholstered), since i haven't given it any good justice beside my bed :)
some furniture details: (1) coffee table (2) office side desk (3) rocking stool

less pinwheels this time :) lucky to have scored these metal frames and rustic metal C (for my first name) at some local store.

along with these other things that are DIY - potential. (1) for a lamp (2) wooden horse - as a bookend or lamp base if my mood strucks (3) cardboard book/storage

 the finished lamps :)

new furniture: storage for my printer and office stuff :)

left: i edited my dividers and customized a cork board and magnetic chalk board.

new furniture: bench with canvass cushion and baskets. i really want to print a British flag on this canvass, but im still figuring out ways how to :) also, the fillings on this cushion are actually the bean balls i recycled from our exhibit - recycle much, and sorry for the crappy styling (ie. bench cushion, messy table, etc) in this photo :)

and oh, my room will be one of the bedrooms featured in Real Living's March 2012 issue :) #excited! i wasn't really renovating my room for show, it started as a stress-buster from too much plates and sleepless nights, so i'm really glad that people come up to me and ask if they could feature mine in publication *beams* thank you! :)

with the creative team of Real Living Magazine :)

have a Blessed week everyone :)
