We found some good and pretty curtains at Macy’s in Taipan. We are trying (read my lips – trying) to set up an English living room. So I chose one that’s flowery with shades of limelight, peach and summer heat. That’s our theme color by the way. It looks so sweet. I got it with 50% discount. It was so timely coz it was their last day of sale.
Hubby kept saying it was really God’s favor for us to find the curtain store at just the right time. The 2-panel window curtain was on display. It’s supposed to be on 30% only. But I wanted to get it even if it was only on display and there was no other stock. So I jokingly said, I will buy if you give me more discount. LOL. She actually gave me 50% discoun instead of just 30%. Me and my jokes work well, sometimes.
Our new house is smaller. So it;s quite easy to make it cozy. It’s a good thing that we repainted it. The house we are staying now is all-white. So it’s hard to decorate it. And we didn’t want to do a lot because it is not our own house.
But with our new house, we decided to take charge and went ahead with repainting. The owners didn’t mind. So yes, I am excited to move in to our new house with an English living room. But of course, one can’t expect too much as we have limited budget. So it won’t be that Georgian, or Victorian, or even Edwardian interior design. Just basic English design – full of flowers.
