Re-decorate with the unusual

Here in Sri Lanka it is not unusual to live in a flat. With the advent on the mushrooming condominiums dotting the face of the city, more celebrities are opting to buy themselves a good decent flat in the city. As for me, I can never live in one. I need the fresh air to breathe, the green grass, the occasional grasshopper and butterfly and the smell of fresh dug earth. What about you.  I need doors that open to a side garden, I need windows to close when a thunder storm is threatening and I need to have wet messy feet to scrub and dry after a good session of re-potting.

With that said, I believe though that there is some form of art to in living in a flat.  I remember a song taught by my great grand-father, which went something like this..."our old tom cat died last night, the wife said bury him out of sight, we had no garden, cos we are living in a flat, so what were we to do with the body of a cat". My point exactly.  But whatever your abode is, I am a true believer that you make the most of it.

Bookshelves dont have to be with books-use your imagination and fill it up with pretty and unusual items
Side tables need not be high polished and glossy
For the flat dweller
Book cupboards and racks dont have to be conventional, stack some odd shaped boxes and store your books
cane and wicker go hand in hand
Great for your indoor or outdoor table, stacked up pots
