Dusit Thani's Family Tree

Dusit Thani Manila's Christmas Family Tree

By Dusit Thani Manila

 

What for you is Christmas?

It may be the gifts wrapped in fancy papers and ribbons or children’s carols. For some, it is the meal shared on Christmas Eve no matter how simple or festive it may be.

Here at Dusit Thani Manila, we believe that it is the spirit of giving. And we think that the best of all gifts around any Christmas tree is the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each others’ arms.

And so, this year, Dusit Thani Manila gathers families from different walks of life and invites them to enthuse others by sharing values and traditions their families have been accustomed to. More so, provide an avenue where children of the next generation will be inspired to be a channel of blessings to mankind.

Through this project dubbed as Family Tree, join us as we endeavor to give this season a new and deeper meaning.

The hotel also invites all in-house and dining guests as well as Facebook fans to cast their votes for "liking" the best Christmas Tree, where cash prizes will be donated to the top three winning entries’ chosen charity. Voting is from November 15 to December 25, 2011. 

 so please, vote for the Llamas Tree:

(which me and my former classmate - yes, we're graduates now! - had been cooking/designing for the past few weeks now :)

with Aivan Magno and the Llamas' :)

with the amount of design choices one could think of, its hard to stick with just one (or two, or three) styles. with me, if it's not a clean/light/neutral palette, i get industrial/ eco glam/ eclectic.

and today, i'm feeling eclectic glam oozing with colors and textures! like one of Kelly Weartsler's bedroom designs here....

i really like the spunky colors and textures she used in this bedroom, not to mention, that white and pink rendition of the Ming chair. it's all pink and purple, but not too girly! i don't know how that chandelier lights up, but it definitely adds up and made the room really luxurious. so inspired, i created this outfit peg thinking, if i couldn't bring this home, maybe i could just wear it! :)

color blocking much :)
