Go Shopping for Home Furnishings

This weekend, I took some time to do spring clean my house before putting it up for sale. There are a few things I want to do for the house but before I can go shopping for furnishings, I need to clean up the clutter!

One of my favourite past times is to shop for home furnishings and to visit home and decor stores. I often find it hard to resist the temptation of buying more curtains, more cushions, bed sheets, accessories, plants and accessories. It gets dangerous when I’m responding to home furnishings sale as I tend to shop more than I need! My hubby tends to be the more practical one who buys only what he needs. I left him to choose the right Robern Medicine cabinet for the house last time and he did a good job.

When I was in Bali last week, I was so impressed with all the artistic home accessories and furnishings. I almost bought the entire set of decorating bowls lined with colored mosaics! But then I had to remind myself that it would be hard to bring them back but my decision would be different if I was shopping for a new home! The next time when I visit Bali, I will be sure to bring an empty luggage to carry home some home artifacts.
