About Me – Rachel Lim

I'm born in Singapore and it is where I had spent my past 32 years in.

I love beautiful things, not necessary only to those with pretty appearances but also beauty from within. That explains why I’m very much attracted to things that appear appealing and pretty. And I hold high respect to people with a beautiful and big heart. I enjoys the process of making pretty things, be it through interior designing, scrapbooking, fashion designing, make-overs etc etc. so when there is any interior design/runway/make-overs TV show, I’ll make sure to catch them.

I’m married to Darren Tan in January 2003 after 6 years of courtship and we have two amazing boys: Dylan (born January 2006) and Devan (born January 2009).

I was in the Chemical Industry for 2 years when I decided to pursue my passion in Interior Design. I worked hard for a scholarship that putted me through my studies at NAFA (Nanyang Academic of Fine Arts). As an Interior designer, life was busy but great.

Things took a turn after my first born arrived and I decided to be his primary caregiver when he reached 1 year old. To be the first to witness his every milestone, to be by his side to nurture and groom him the way I want to. There were many challenges and adjustments along the way, and I overcome each and every one of them with the support of my loving husband and my dear parent.

So here I am, counting my blessing and enjoying each and every minute of my life.

This website was officially set up in September 2008 merely to journal my motherhood journey. Now, I decided to give a mission to this website of mine. I want to share and to give, providing some ideas or stimulus for reflection on what you are doing in your life.

Do leave me a comment to share what you do in your everyday or tips that could benefit others. I would love to hear from you!

You could reach me at rachel[at]rachel-lim[dot]com. I’ll respond to your email. Promise!

One last thing, if you are a mum, give yourself a pat on your back. You are great!

If you are not, I hope this humble place of mine serve you some useful tips for the future. *wink*
