My daughter and a friend of hers recently moved into their first apartment. In past they both had lived together in dorm rooms in college, but this was first apartment in their life. Both girls had started jobs in their chosen careers, but they were also paying off student loans so they did not have a great deal of extra money for decorating their apartment. They already had the basic bedroom furniture with them so their prime focus was to decorate the living area. They wanted the apartment to be unique without any externally extended help. It was their wish to take some time from their busy life to decorate their apartment and before having their parents over for dinner.



Six weeks later, after we had helped the girls move in they invited us to dinner. Since, my daughter had been a bamboo fan ever since she was a little girl I decided to get one bamboo basket for her. I bought one and filled it with stuff that transformed it into a manicure kit. At the sight of the basket my daughter couldn't help giggling. Upon entering her house I discovered that she was laughing so hard because bamboo was all she and her friend had used to decorate the house as bamboos are easy to afford and functional. They had bought a lot of bamboo baskets and grass mats to function as rugs. Also the food on the dining table was laid under bamboo placemats.

My daughter was very anxious to show us her bedroom as she had taken special care to decorate it. The same oriental theme, which she had all over the house, was followed in here too. For substituting the lamp stands she had used 3 feet tall bamboo baskets that were shaped like vases. In her closet she had befitted another bamboo basket serving the purpose of a shelf. The bathroom was the last area left to be decorated.

The gift basket which, I was a bit unsure of while purchasing fit perfectly with the rest of the dcor of the room. It was done in a color tone which could have easily matched with any family of bamboo color. My daughter needed some more baskets to place her towels in them. She said she would bring in others matching the color tone of the one I had bought so that they could all go together.

My daughter has a wonderful taste when it comes to home dcor. She has her way with bamboo sticks and can create wonders out of them. And the best thing about bamboos is that they are reasonable and long lasting.
