Whimsy and the Team

To close the net in the "sampayan" area just outside the master bedroom (it's the only place where it can be put), I put a touch of whimsy and instead of using a black thread to tie the two parts of the net together, I used a contrasting, attention-grabbing, bright red ribbon to give it a touch of "wala lang."

Here's another example of what I call "wala lang."  The occupant wanted everything to be all white on the first floor but we had to use blue for the baseboard.  I was itching to insert a bit of blue in the kitchen so we just painted one vertical panel so it looks more fun.

This is the team that made the project possible and took it to the finish line.  Johnray, the one on the left is the son of Nanette who cooks in our house and who is a great connector-networker.  She always puts my mom and I in touch with people who are looking for jobs either from her family, neighborhood or circle of friends.  She has helped a lot of people this way.  The one in the middle is their neighbor and the one on the right is the husband of Nanette's friend whom Nanette also referred to work in our house.  The one in the middle, Winwin was the one who found the carpenter, mason and electrician to do the other work for the house but their part was done last week.  So many, many thanks to the team!
