Celebrating our Home

We have a small home that we got built on a piece of plot. Though it is not a very lavish one yet it is our home and I have tastefully decorated it.Ever since we moved into this new home of ours I have been very excited with the new house that we have made our home. Every aspect of my new home is decided according to my taste. The color of the walls, to the wood finish design of the doors, door knob designs and the design of the pelmets all reflect my taste and it gave me immense pleasure in making these choices. Even the process of selecting the curtains for various rooms was like a festival and full of excitement. All the family members had got together at the big shop that sells curtain material and all kinds of drape materials and upholstery fabric. We were spoiled by the choice of colors and designs at the store. We ended up shortlisting three to four designs for each room.
Then the shopkeeper had sent  over a person with our selected designs to our place.
He had held the fabric folding it up in such a way that it gave us a visual feel as to how a curtain would look like. This phase of selection was full of excitement and by the time we selected and finalized all the curtain designs we were all very excited as it was our own home that was getting decorated and dressed up. These celebrations reached a higher pitch when I ordered pizza’s and cold drinks for everyone. By the end of the process we had spent a fruitful day decorating our new home.This gave me and my family a lot of happiness and reason to celebrate every moment and action in this new house of ours.Actually we had been in a rented accommodation before and moved in without much furnishing the new property. This way each article that we acquired for our new home had a story associated with it. Right from buying the fan’s to the electrical fittings was an important event and had a sense of festivity associated with it.
 When we bought a chandelier for our drawing room everyone in the family was super excited .Our neighbors visited us and we had a small tea party and snacks to celebrate the occasion. When we bought a carpet the same excitement was experienced by me and my family. Since all our household buys have been collective purchases where everyone in the family gets together and goes for these shopping sprees there are interesting anecdotes linked to each shopping.
Even after passage of time though the things may get old yet the memories and anecdotes associated with these trips remain and often they become the starting point of family conversations and we relive those happy shopping experiences and memories again and again.
