Summer Rainy coffee table:)))


Dear friends...Hope all of you are enjoying the summer season and ensuring that the time is well spent with your summer activities, travels etc.Month May is peak of summer here and the temperature soars to 40+Celsius. With long school holidays  families get away to cooler destinations to beat the heat. To our surprise this week there was a dip in temperature and we were caught in the sudden down pour of summer rains. Rain is always refreshing and brings cheers. With pleasant weather around, at times one becomes creative too. A rainy coffee table made in corner of the bed room brought in warmth to a chilly and a gloomy day. Bringing in the bone China floral plates along with the new  kettle set and a English antic porcelain cookie carry  box (usually used for picnics) which I picked long time ago from a antic bazaar gave the corner a cozy look with a candle lit on.

200th post at Crystal Grandeur!

This is my 200th post at Crystal Grandeur!  As a profound blogger it is a moment of joy for me as well.   It has been a wonderful journey all along.  Crystal Grandeur blossomed in November 2011 with Diwali & Christmas decors and it is my small world where my imagination and creations comes to reality.  I admire some of the blogs crossing 400+ posts. I appreciate and thank them for influencing others to do the same.  Speaking of my love for decors and styling I enjoy exploring different aesthetics and incorporate them in my decors and tablescapes. It helps me to keep moving forward  with new and fresh ideas  and doesn't let me be stagnant to one particular style.    For a nostalgia kick i share with you all... my delightful moments at Crystal Grandeur. Receiving appreciation for your creation in the form of comments always touches ones heart. (Sharing some of my past posts sweet comments posted by dear readers from across...

Festive Give Away:)))

  Season Fall is to arrive soon and the season has its own charm in providing us with plenty of seasonal specials. Oranges are best during Fall and they last from beginning of Fall to end of Winter. In our garden plenty of Calamondin oranges started to appear and the fresh smell of the citrus in the air so soothing.  Plucked few of them and made marmalade from the ripen oranges for the morning toast. Also a good idea to make marmalade when the oranges are plenty, fill them in cute little bottles,tie with a ribbon/card and gift it when there is a Fall party or for Thanks giving & festive occasions. Its easy and quick to make and my way of preparing the recipe is given right here.  Cut the calamondin orange to half, remove the pulp and the skin separately. While removing the pulp take away the seeds. Squeeze out the juice from the pulp using a thin cloth . Cut the skin to thin stripes.  Put a heavy bottom pan on the stove and keep on low flame. (For one glass of ju...
