Here’s What You Can Shop At The Home Centre Sale To Make your Home Look a Million Bucks

I have always been in awe of the gold jeweled products at Home Centre, especially around the festive season. Nothing does as much justice to your home as the golden votives, tea light holders or the blingy placemats. And truth be told, they burn a hole in your pocket if you go shopping during the season. So I like to stock up the prices are half for these products never go out of style. I stopped by Home Centre, Phoenix Marketcity last evening and made a mental note of what I liked. Oh! I’m not an impulsive shopper at all. I survey what’s on offer first, then come home to see what will fit and where. Over the years, I have seen that I tend to pick up the same colors during a season -a habit that totally annoys me. One year, I ended up having 6 hues and shades…

My love for pottery and stoneware crockery refuses to wean. A few weeks ago, the PR machinery of Zansaar mailed me introducing Earth Stone – a collection of stoneware crockery including lamps, mugs, trays, bowls and shades in warm, earthen shades. The time browsing through the collection was time well spent; every cup and plate was something you can proudly boast of befitting its place in the kitchen.

Bahrain Diaries: Why Purple is Hot this Season?

1 Comment

Have you noticed something common in the stores this winter? I did. Accidentally. After picking up two tops and a candle – all in purple, which my son pointed out to me. Purple is the rage this season and people are loving it. It is different from the regular yellow, red, orange and white. A few clicks of the stores from my window shopping trips: The purple and white crockery with floral pattern is from REDTAG – a popular retail chain with outlets across the Middle East in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait. I’m floored by their home decor products, in particular, lamp shades and crockery. Image courtesy: All images shot by me at the store with permission.
