My Cambodian Silk Lanterns

Since my previous return to Singapore in March, I've came across these fab silk lanterns from Cambodia and I've been fixated.

Despite my return back to the US, I still can't get it out of my head. I've brought up my vision to both Paul and Sommer and let's say, they are not as excited as I wanted them to be. Initially I thought perhaps it's just a phase that I will snap out of but it stuck to me like a leech and I simply can't shake it off. Every single day the vision of owning the lanterns stuck to me firmer than before. Not forgetting how nice and romantic it will be at night when we will switch off all the lights in the house and just light up our lanterns and admire it with Mooch.

During our last trip back to Singapore, I officially introduce to Paul and my FIL to my lanterns and to my surprise, both of them have kind comments about them. Paul even saw my vision and was the ultimate mastermind in hagging the price and slaughtering the seller. Yes, this white butt shark managed to bring down the price of the 3 lanterns from $210 to $160 and I must say I am proud of him. At least I am not doing the dirty job !

And we finally fullfill my vision and have our lanterns all hang and light up. And when we take a walk around the neighbourhood, I get so excited when I still catch a glimps of our house with our lanterns lighted up all glowing and nice. Tonight, I will admire it with Mooch !

Check out the stunning pics...
