Last Friday, July 15, Kris Aquino opened her home to viewers of her morning talk show Kris TV. The TV host-actress showed the condo units located in Laguna as well as another condo unit located in Forbes Park, Makati City.   

She candidly revealed: "Nung naging okay na ang hatian namin sa property [with James Yap, her estranged husband], ang ginawa ko agad, nilipat ko in a trust...Ang nangyari kasi ang unit na ito, our original unit, nilipat ko in a trust for Josh [her firstborn son]. Para kahit anong mangyari, kay Josh na ito [referring to the Laguna condo unit]. Yung kabilang unit ang nakapangalan kay Bimby."

Boy Abunda accompanied Kris as she showed every part of the condo unit and narrated anecdotes about their family life. 

Kris told the audience, "Papakita ko sa inyo 'yong dalawang master bedrooms sa mga anak ko kasi kanila e, so parang in essence nakikitira lang po ako," she quipped.

In the Laguna unit, it was obvious that Kris is fond of Buddhas since she considers them her lucky charm. They were all over the place.

During this particular episode, Kris also shared tips on how to maximize the space of a condo unit. She said that instead of walls, she opted to have cabinets instead.

"Dito nakalagay 'yong iba-ibang shoes ko, 'tapos boots, ah flats, at least maayos na, sabi nga ng mga kapatid ko finally wala ng clutter."

Kris also narrated stories about the paintings found in the condo units. One of her favorites is the portrait of her mother, former President Cory Aquino, which was done by National Artist Ang Kiukok.

Cynthia and Ivy Almario, the interior designers of Kris's condo units, also  shared details about the place.

"Sa pagrere-decorate ng bahay namin hindi lahat ng bagay bago, may ilang luma na pero after ng makeover bagong-bago na ang dating," said Kris.

The ABS-CBN actress believes in decorating a house, its fine to have your collection as decorations. She quipped, "Dito ang libro ko ang bida!"

"Mga magazines hindi dini-dispose para gawin ding design, and nakaayos per month."

Kris also showed her walk-in closet which, according to her: "Organized per color ang closet ko. Dito makikita ang lahat ng damit pang-TV, pelikula at iba pang public events."

"Dito rin nakalagay ang exercise machines ko para inspirasyon na mag-exercise ako."

JEEPNEY BED. Since Josh wanted a car for his bedroom, Kris thought about giving him a jeepney as bed so it would reflect their Pinoy heritage.
