Rajee Sood is a very talented blogger and a home-maker who lives with her husband and two lovely girls Aimee and Sarah in Navi Mumbai. Today she shares a few corners from her very elegant home with us.
The drawing room corner where Rajee sits and works on the laptop while enjoying the whole house with just the light from the table lamps.
Her coffee table, the center of her life in the house, always has flowers on it.
Rajee adds "It has to have some of my candles. Almost as if to say my coffee table reflects my moods"
She believes that her home is very subtly evolving with the comfort they look for in their home, with the things they collect, places they've lived, and the family as it grows.
One of the side tables in the drawing room , a lovely little flower arrangement of the latest blooms from her pots, the floribunda roses and hydrangea leaves.
Rajee says, "The strongest influence for my home and me has been
Rajee's older girl Aimee snoozing with her teddy in the dining- drawing area.
Old project still underway, photos of three generations of her family.
The crockery unit. Rajee had this made centered around the carved panel from Rajasthan, it now houses her complete glassware, barware and crockery.
Dining area
A lovely corner with blue and white pottery.
Rajee, "My bedside~ another oriental table in my collection, with a Buddha, blue and white pottery piece from Rajasthan filled in with my husbands coin collection. I especially love the Chinese jar I bought at a San Francisco flea market, while antiquing one lazy weekend. A print of Thakur Singh's work."
Red crewelwork pillows and one of Rajee's own artwork in the back ground.
The antique silverware, the gerberas, the gorgeous furnishings and blue pottery blend so well into her unique urbane space.
Thanks for sharing these lovely corners from your home, your world, Rajee!

What a beautiful place.
I would love to spend a week-end in this home :-)
To enhance that oriental flavor in the bedroom, you can hang Chinese art. Artist Wu Minrong has a beautiful collection of floral and/or bird paintings.
Soul love style elegance
