My Apartment Pics

As promised, I am attaching some pics of my Sunny & Airy UWS brownstone apartment. I am going to miss this place.

Enjoy!

View of my living Room.

I love the Bay windows. We have huge south facing windows that let in lots and lots of light.

Living Room: Sofa

I shop a lot from West Elm, CB2, & Pottery Barn. The sofa, glass coffee table and the geometrical neutral rug were purchased from West elm. The Dining bar table in the previous pic is from CB2.

I selected Neutral colors for the furniture and walls. I was not allowed to paint the walls.
I brought in the bright colors (blue and orange) by using decorative pillows. I made these pillow covers from my old saris. I chose the blue and orange accent colors from my painting (shown below).


Painting:
We picked it up from a street fair in the Upper West Side, last summer. We both loved the bold colors.


Some Artifacts & Accessories from around the World.
First and Second: Evil Eye Mini Carpet Wall hanging From Turkey
Third: Cute key holder from Sienna, Italy.

Some More: From my Kitchen Area:


First: Ganesha, "The Indian god for removing obstacles". Nine difference spices are used to create this magnificent art work!

Second: A small display area in my Kitchen. (A square clock is super imposed on top of an Octagonal shaped container that holds various Indian condiments such as Pepper corns & Lentils.

Metallic figurines:
These figurines are made from metals such as silver, copper etc.
The peacock incense holder is my fav.


Serenity Now !


Small water fountain on top of an Asian inspired Table. A peaceful and serene corner decor!

These brownstones are beautiful.
