    Happy Republic day to you too Sharon. It's nearly impossible to pick one favourite on Zansaar but I've been wanting to get this lovely tea pot for a long time so it's my current favourite. Fingers crossed now for the hamper 🙂

    I would love to have the Ludo Rug in my home. It would keep the family entertained for hours. Ok, let's be honest here – it might keep the four year old busy long enough for me to go to the loo or tackle a deadline 🙂 Happy Republic Day and here's to freedom of all sorts!

    After watching Food Safari on TLC, I've always wanted to cook Moroccan tagine chicken. I never thought you could get a tagine anywhere
    close to where I live. Thanks to Zansaar's Mason Cash Red Tagine my culinary fantasies can become a reality:)My new fav product!

    Hi

    Happy Republic Day to you too 🙂 this is a lovely Giveaway, winning something for your home surely sounds tempting.

    Selecting 1 Favourite product from zanzaar was quite tough as I got so many of them in my wishlist, Having a very slow home renovation, hope I complete it someday and have the dream home once our family desired and when I though what will be the first thing I will but it for my renovated home, I only though about this beautiful lantern 🙂
    Link: http://www.zansaar.com/egyptian-blue-antique-finish-hurricane-lantern-29-cm-h-p-SHAOPWM16

    I love antique and the reason why this is my favourite is because I will place it in our family room and the light from this lantern will always remind us that the old memories of home will never be lost with the new renovation and the home will always preserve its old charm with memories that are forever.

    Following you via GFC but could not find that option on zanzaar 🙁 MY GFC name: Pooja Kopargaonkar:

    Following you and zanzaar on twitter and facebook as well 🙂

    I am an ardent follower of your blog for all the great decor ideas. In synch is the Zansaar.com with everything related to home under one roof. But being a foodie as well as baking lover what I love best is their Kitchen range. One can get anything & everything here. Right from kitchen appliances, cookware to absolutely any of the baking tools. On my wish list is thier Cake decoration set.
