Amateur at everything.

Hey guys, How are you all? Do you guys remember this picture from my first post in this series? My apartment has a long corridor running through the length of it which means allot of empty walls with no furniture or anything on them.  I'm attaching this hand made plan of my apartment to make it easier.  the yellow highlighted portion is the corridor. Since it is pretty long, I'm dividing the post into two and doing only half of  the corridor right now. Although you can't see this wall when you enter because the door opens against this wall but it is the last thing you see when you leave my apartment :D So I'm thinking of changing the home sweet home print in here to something more appropriate. I would love to get your suggestions. The first wall you see when you enter the house is this one. This Bismillah was the first thing I painted after we shifted because God bless my grandmother she kept pressing me to put some ALLAH ka...

Hi guys, how are you doing? I announced on my instagram last week that I'm going to be posting every Tuesday in shaa Allah. If you have not followed me there, do go and check it out, I post allot of other fun daily life stuff over there. (the link is in the left tab.) Now I'm soo excited about today's post.

I have a very detailed pinterest board and had an image in my head of how the whole space would work out. I wanted something simple wi...

Hey guys, How are you all doing? I remember I started this blog back in I think 2010 or earlier and I honestly don't remember it being this hard, you know making an instagram profile, updating your facebook page, then adding all of that to the blog etc. (Have I gotten old or something? :P ) Requesting you guys to please put up with me while I try to learn this stuff. Anyways, I think I told you guys how excited I am to show you how i'm decorating my appartment. I dont exactly know what the size of the appartment is but it has 3 decent sized bedrooms, a kind of small living space, 2 baths, kitchen and no storage closets or any closets for that matter. (for some reason they mostly don't have built-in closets here in Saudi) First I want to show you guys the appartment in it's raw state and then do One room dedicated posts on how I decorated and made it functional. A little backstory, I told you guys since I had a 3 month visit visa last year, so we stayed in a f...
