I know Spring is almost non-existent here in Mumbai, and yet, there is something delightful about its arrival. It ushers in a cascade of positive changes for our home and hearth and always brims with possibility- no matter how short it’s stint is. And I think it’s only natural of us to crave change at…
Christmas 2022 has begun in the Trumatter household and here is our main Christmas tree- all decked up and ready to cheer for months to come. I wanted a very cozy Christmas tree in a traditional color palette, inspired by Dickens’ tree but I also wanted the style to be era fluid so it sits…
I am not religious. I don’t have a mandir in my home, I don’t know a single ritual and I have never fasted in my life for religious purposes. But I am, from the soul of me, an ardent festivalist. Durga Puja? Yes. Ganpati? Yes. Christmas? Yes!!!!!! OMG YES! Eid? Yup, Yes! Nowruz? Alright, bring…
Out of all the responses, in my instagram QnA yesterday, one question popped more frequently than others. Budget fall decor ideas and how to decorate your home for fall, when the pockets are not feeling too generous. Tell you what? I like this.

Ganpati bappa morya. Mangal murti morya. You know good times are nigh when you hear this from every nook and corner.

Frankly, I am mentally in summer. I am also 5 scroll deep in blue and white summer decor and never in my life have I waited more for that sweltering 40 degree. I am done with cold. Punto. Fin. I want my aircon, my cold soul-curry, gin and tonic, feni with chilies, ice, cold shower…
Growing up, over the cupboard storage was a thing. And it was not really a good thing. It didn’t matter if you stayed in a rental or in your own house- the over the cupboard storage situation was quite messy. Rows and rows of blankets, either tied up in a cloth or in their transparent…
After much contemplation, I have decided to let go of the beautiful blue in our bedroom. Hahahaha. Honestly, I kept it this long because of Rohan. He wanted it. But it’s time. It’s too blue and I am over it. But, this time around, I have decided to add a little interest with pattern in…
Summer Cozy living room details, an ulcer, no coffee or milk and milk products (includes chocolates) and lots of lacto ferments with a side of some water colour brush up. That is how my weekend was in a nutshell and I am also quite glad I took a break from social media. Frankly I couldn’t…
That’s slathered with all things Autumn and is perfect to celebrate the everyday of this gorgeous time of the year. Hello and welcome ladies and gentlemen. It’s been a while. How did we get to November so soon? Do any of you remember? Is it age? Because as and on the numbers increase in my…
