Flashback Of Year 2015

What a wonderful year it has been, I learnt so many new things, I did so many things for the first time, I made a lot of wonderful friends, I went to and explored so many new places not as a tourist but as a traveller and got to know about different cultures & traditions and most importantly on blogging front I have become more polished and confident. All thanks to wonderful people around me (family, friends & my wonderful readers) who always made me feel positive and motivated me to achieve goals. 

Big thank you to each one of you!!

Before I reveal what I have in my bag for new year here is a quick recap of the year 2015--

JAN 2015: I started my year with gratitude because it enriches one's life. It gives you immense pleasure when your are grateful for everything that you have in your life. Read my post on Gratitude here.

I love playing with electronic devices and thanks to my wonderful clients who give me the opportunity to do what I love the most. I got a new mobile device to review on my blog and I shot a video for the first time and stepped into the world of Vlogging(video blogging). You can check out that video here.

I love it when my friends and readers want to be a guest blogger on my blog. Read one such wonderful guest blog by a sweet and lovely friend Vandana who shared some tips on "How to accessorise your home". Readers just loved this post and its view count is more than a thousand views now. 

MAR 2015:  See I told you I am surrounded with such lovely people who bring the best out of me. My clients are no exception. One of my clients gave me the opportunity to create a space in my home exclusively for me and my work, a space that reflects my personality, My home office, check it out here. I hope you will get some tips to create your own workspace. 

I love DIY projects and gardening too. When I mix both these passions results are always heartwarming. I made tiny cute Owl Planters, check out the tutorial here.
