One room with Air -conditioner gets fitted first.This has been the most important rule since the time we got married.When our old AC had suddenly died , we went to an AC shop at 9 pm.Wrote a cheque and gave a little cash upfront and bought an Air-conditioner in 15 minutes flat.I knew my mind really well.That’s because I googled and read reviews to find the best AC in India.At 10 pm that night the LG servicemen visited. Installed the AC and left within 45 minutes!. That’s service. Can you hear fangirl speak here? That’s because since then the only AC I have bought for my other rooms and my childhood home has been LG too.No troubles, great service and looks awesome.

Number two

Clean water: Water-borne diseases form the bulk of infectious disease in India.From gastroenteritis to hepatitis A and E, worms, typhoid, and cholera. Everything is traced back to water.I never compromise on water quality for drinking or cooking. I researched extensively to find the best water purifier. Heavy metals in water dangerous.So water purifier is a must for a healthy home.When we shifted to our new home in Malda, first .my hubby got the water purifier and first. Everything else took second place. Air and water, basic necessities which needs great care.

Number three

The Airfryer: I have written about air fryer previously.It’s very important if you love your fries and still want to cut down on the oil.Also, Indian cooking involves frying which can be done very well with a fraction of the oil in an air fryer. I have been using, this air fryer byPhilips for the last 4 years and I love it.I wish I could carry it when I travel and make the hotels use this for my food.You cannot believe how great it is , till you try.

Number 4

Microwave and OTG: It’s really easy to reheat and my baking attacks.I have been using my microwave for the last 10 years and its the only brand I recommend.LG stole my heart 10years back and I am still a loyal customer.

Number 5

Food processor: This is a live saver.Especially when I want to cook non-veg.The onion garlic paste is ready in a jiffy.It can juice a carrot, chop stuff, make mince, anything !I  bought this in 2009.It shifted six homes with me and still with me.How great is that?I sincerely believing in buying for keeps.Why would I want to buy new appliance, every few years,if what I have is superlative?

Number 6

Washing Machine: I absolutely hate washing clothes by hand.The washing machine is my life saver.Clean clothes are a part of a healthy home.You can’t ignore this very important appliance.

Number 7

Refrigerator

Mentioned lower down in the list.But you just can’t live without this right?Imagine cooking 4 times a day, every day,365 days forever!Life would be difficult!A good refrigerator retains the goodness of your fresh produce and the taste of cooked ones.I have a 7-year-old Samsung refrigerator.It is very well behaved. and has never given me any  reason to complain.

Number 8

Geyser: I need this for my daughter.She likes the water to be just right.Not hot or cold but perfect.Otherwise, she catches a cold.Why am i mentioning my daughter?I love water at the perfect temperature too .Enter our trusty Bajaj Geyser.

Number 9

Pop up toaster: Breakfast is a breeze when you use a pop-up toaster.My daughter loves toast too!

Number 10

Hand blender: This was a gift from my sister on my birthday for my cake baking adventures.Now I can’t live without it.I have only shared about products and appliances I have at home and use.Nothing which I don’t.The average life span of my products is 8 years.I have been married 10 years now.So that makes sense right?When you get married and start a family, you may not be able to afford everything at once. It’s better to save a little and buy, rather than take out loans for it. Be responsible with money and life will be hassle-free.

Also remember its always better to spend for quality products which last for long rather than buy new things every year.

Did I tell you about my new home? It is still under construction. But that doesn’t stop me from dreaming about decor, right? I love nature all around, my balcony garden helps with that. I plan to have a vertical garden right in my living room and for the other walls, I want paintings. Beautiful, gorgeous paintings, which will make me weave stories about the artist and the subject and make my home interesting. Paintings are not only unique home decor, but they are also a wonderful talking point. A  way to break the ice at parties. It’s also a wonderful way to make your house a home with a distinct personality.

But how do I buy paintings online? I am living in a small town in India and traveling back and forth. I love paintings, but not very well-versed in the nitty gritty of buying art. Luckily, I found a site to buy paintings online. Gallerist is based in India and connects art lovers and artists throughout the world. You can buy beautiful landscapes, florals , Gods and Goddesses, and wildlife paintings, all at the click of a button.

The site has an impressive 900 artists exhibiting on their online gallery with over 3000 gorgeous paintings. This has made my life easier. I plan to have pictures of forests and waterfalls on feature walls. 

I selected this beautiful painting of Krishna for the wall next to my puja area. I am a great believer in the power of faith. Puja corner is a must for me!

 

The Buddha picture will be in our library cum guest room. It’s so serene and peaceful. When I want to curl up with a good book or research something, I want a room which invites concentration.

This painting of a beautiful woman, in traditional dance attire, will grace the living room wall. Art can inspire and lift up the mood of a space. It can create life and ambiance in rooms. So I plan to buy my art pieces with supreme care. Interestingly art is also a good investment. But a lot depends on what you buy!

My daughter loves trains She will love this stunning train painting in her room. Helping Rai explore her interests, is my job as a parent. What she does, with all the knowledge, is Gods will! I think I am set.

Thank God I found this site. Otherwise, my dream of getting paintings for my new home would never come true! I found 8 beautiful ideas to display paintings and I will tell you the  9th  one in my next post. That’s a super easy decor hack, to hang paintings with zero stress.

8 Best ideas  for displaying  art as unique  decor  

1.Display art along the long connecting hallway. The plain wall which would look boring before now turns into an interesting walkway where your guests will slow down to see or you will smile as you pass.

.

1. When you have open spaces with kitchen, dining and living room altogether, paintings help to define each area. The best part, it creates no barrier to airflow or energy flow but helps make the space distinct.

3)This is one of my favorite ways to display paintings. These slim shelves are perfect .you can have as many paintings or as little as you want. Change paintings every day, rearrange them, nothing is a problem. Bonus, there are no headaches of hanging the paintings.

4)A feature wall with a painting in the library, den or recreation room is my favorite. It looks dramatic and gives the place the right creative vibe. Home decor is not just for show. It’s creating the perfect environment for your family to find comfort and creativity to bloom.

5)A dramatic modern art, in the living space in an all-white room, gives it the much-needed color, without taking away the serene look.

6)A nature painting at the end of a hallway makes the space pleasant. Picture of plants and nature are guaranteed to boost the wellness quotient of your home.

1. Even if the room is small, you can display a large painting. Just don’t put it, on all your walls. That can make the room appear cluttered. The picture below shows one waterfall picture on a feature wall. That easily lifts the otherwise okay room to wow!
