Families dream of owning a home and they have also visualized what they want it to look like. For mom Erika dela Cruz, her only wish was to have a pastel-themed living room. She made that wish come true when they moved into their house in early December.
“Dream house ko po ito,” the 38-year-old mom of two shares in an interview with SmartParenting.com.ph. “Preloved po ‘yung house, bale repaint lang talaga ‘yung pinaka-ginawa, pati na rin ‘yung mga built-in cabinets
Since they were on a budget, Erika took care of the interiors herself. While the house was being renovated, she ordered the furniture that would go with the space. “Own idea ko po ‘yung design at kung saan nakapuwesto ‘yung mga accent and décor,” she adds.

The result is a bright, monotonous palette that isn’t too overwhelming. Even her husband Francis San Andres likes it! “Ok lang kay hubby kasi puro girls naman ang kids namin and very supportive siya sa’kin,” Erica says.
