I love these drawers. This is a jewelry case that my mom gave me and each of these drawers holds something different in them. There's also a glass door over these drawers like the one on the right. The other half of this is for necklaces, you can see some of my pearls peeking in the corner.

This dreamcatcher has always been in our bedroom. It actually has 4 dreamcatchers, one large and 3 small ones with feathers. I got it during our honeymoon so this will be 7 years old already in February.

They say that your eyes are the windows to the soul.
Not sure what my eye can tell you about my soul but that's the best I can do today. Our home windows are not very interesting, just some dirty old blinds on it so I chose to do another window for today's prompt.

Have you ever seen a rainbow cloud?
Taken in June of this year, this is what is known as a circumhorizontal arc ... "The arc isn't a rainbow in the traditional sense—it is caused by light passing through wispy, high-altitude cirrus clouds. The sight occurs only when the sun is very high in the sky (more than 58° above the horizon). What's more, the hexagonal ice crystals that make up cirrus clouds must be shaped like thick plates with their faces parallel to the ground.When light enters through a vertical side face of such an ice crystal and leaves from the bottom face, it refracts, or bends, in the same way that light passes through a prism. If a cirrus's crystals are aligned just right, the whole cloud lights up in a spectrum of colors."—Victoria Gilman
Amazing isn't it? I was picking up my son from school when I saw this and we literally ran home so I could get my camera and take pictures. This is a rare occurrence and we're so lucky we saw this.

Next stop in our favorite spots/things is in the bathroom.
This is something that my aunt made and gave me. All the roses in this are made out of ribbons, as well as the border.

We are to show something we love about our Hallway but in our tiny apartment, we don't really have a hallway to speak of, so I chose this one from our Foyer instead.
This is a set of 3 short swords I got in Canada. The steel blades are not sharp but the tip can hurt. We plan on collecting swords in the future and this is our very first set (^_^)

Today's prompt is your favorite spot in the lounge.
I'ts a shelf dedicated to my son's achievement in Tae Kwon Do. He's only 5 years old but has entered 2 competitions already and won gold and silver in both competitions (the 2 big trophies and the 2 big medals). The other trophies and medals are from his belt promotion tests and the boards are what he has broken so far. The certificate is a Student of the Day certificate that his Master awarded him during one of his classes. He just took another belt promotion test last Friday and we'll know this week if he's getting his Junior (or semi) Black Belt. If you go to my family blog, I have 2 clips there from his test that you can watch (^_^)

Instead of doing Violet today for our rainbow theme, they opted for Pink instead.
This is my pink phone with a bit of the pink beaded charm I made for it.

Today's color is Indigo and I had a hard time looking for one so you'll have to bear with this.
It's my blueberry scented powder.

Orange is the next color in the rainbow, which is the theme right now so here's my orange.
An orange plastic plate with spoon and fork that my son uses at times. It also comes with a matching bowl and cup.

So this is my very first Her Space:My Space post (yay!) and today's word is Red.
This is a red tube of red pencils from the National Palace Museum in China that a friend of my hubby gave him. It's just sitting here at my desk. The pencils are too nice to use! hehehe
