Home Buddies Bazaar debuts in October!

The influential online group marks their third anniversary with a bazaar extravaganza featuring more than 30 merchants in the home improvement, décor, and design category

Home Buddies, an esteemed group of Filipino home enthusiasts, celebrates its third anniversary with a bazaar event featuring established and budding local brands in the field of home improvement, décor, and design.

Aptly titled Home Buddies Bazaar, the event makes room for a carefully curated selection of furniture must-haves, household finds, and decoration pieces that bear the online community’s mantra of budget-friendly shopping with style. 

“It's the first independent event that we're doing, so we have no limits,” shares founder Frances Lim Cabatuando, prominently known as ‘Mayora’ to HB’s cult-like following on social media. “We're bringing in amazing home brands, starting with our co-presenters Tough Mama, PLDT Home and Ayala Malls Manila Bay. We're also bringing the biggest home professional organizations like United Architects of the Philippines (UAP) and Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers (PICE) for free home consultations for our kapitbahays!”

If you’ve picked up interest in home decor during the pandemic or have embraced the Team Puti and Team Kahoy home aesthetic, then you’ve probably heard of Home Buddies. Founded only in 2020 by Frances Lim Cabatuando, the community remains the biggest in the Philippines and the rest of the Asia-Pacific region (except India) with a staggering 3.2 million members.

Frances, or “Mayora” to the members, first established the community to provide a source of inspiration for fellow Filipinos adjusting to staying home all day. Soon, Home Buddies became the haven for home enthusiasts on the lookout for the next budol or purchase, the latest home hack, the answer to their home-related problem, and so much more. The most engaged community continues to thrive—its latest trending post has over 50 thousand likes—as it hits its three-year milestone.
