Plants and Vase

This will make or break the design. I always feel that this element is of utmost important to bring some "live" and colour to the house. It is also an area that I am not familiar with. Initially I wanted to do a vertical garden in my yard all the way up to the first floor. Seem like a wishful thinking now as I have "burst" my budget. I am also afraid the plants will die on me.

I wrote the wrong address and immediately texted them to o change. It took them one day to reply and by that time, I can't cancel. They said they can't do anything. Asked me to contact Lazada instead. 😢 I decided to let it be and watched like a hawk for the lorry to arrive. Then I asked the lorryman to send the fridge to number 103 instead on 119. What a relieve when that was settled! I was very thankful to the lorrymen for bringing the fridge into the house. I heard some horror stories that they just left it outside the house.
