Basic Rules for Decorating Your Home | December 9, 2011

Basic Rules for Decorating Your Home

Decorating your apartment is never an easy thing to do. There are so many aspects to take into account (like the size, the number of people living there, whether it’s a rental, etc.), and there are too many things that can go wrong… But it’s also an amazing opportunity for you to express your own personal style, taste and aesthetics. Decorating your home is a continuous process that never ends. You can’t pull a room together in one day, nor you can find all you need in one quick trip to Ikea.

But there’s no need to be afraid of it. … Read More »

10 ways to update the decor of your living room

Your living room is most probably the focal point of your home. It’s the room where you spend your free time, where you chill out, read books and magazines, watch the TV.

How to decorate in fall colors | November 14, 2011

How to decorate in fall colors

I’ve always loved the idea of seasonal home decorating. It can make season shifting much more enjoyable, and it makes you seek out the best in each and every time of the year. The nature represents an unlimited source of inspiration, and it would be a shame not to take advantage of everything it has to offer. This being said, there’s so much more to fall decorating that pumpkins and spooky Halloween accessories! Fall’s color palette composed of spicy oranges, rich yellows, rustic reds, forest greens and chocolate browns presents countless opportunities when it comes to home decor. All these … Read More »

New Flavored Crystal Lite! | February 7, 2011

New Flavored Crystal Lite!

I’m not sure which I like best, the reclaimed wood mirror, the salvaged wood console or this cool table lamp chandelier. Luckily, I don’t have to choose and neither do you. Now you can have it all.

This mirror is big and it’s made from reclaimed wood, actually old boat wood. It shows the wear and tear of the high seas and that makes it all the better. Weighing in at almost 200 pounds, this wood mirror can handle a big wall and a big space. And so can this console. Also made from salvaged wood, this console is … Read More »

3 Simple Ways to Determine Your Decorating Style | January 7, 2011

3 Simple Ways to Determine Your Decorating Style

So much pressure befalls on folks to “have a style”. If you’re not sure what that answer may be there is no shortage of quizzes, online tools or design “experts” to choose an answer for you. If you’re tired of giving the same old response of “I dunno…Pottery Barn, I guess”, may I suggest three simple ways to identify what your styles may be. I use the plural form of the word because most Americans don’t have just one favorite these days- not like in the 90′s when French Country was French Country and not “Country Chic mixed with Bohemian … Read More »

September 16th 2010, does that date mean anything to anyone? Anyone? September 16th is exactly 100 days before Christmas. Oh my! That means there are presents to buy, gifts to wrap, cards to send, parties to plan, and a family meals to be prepared! Do you realize there all sorts of websites set up to email you a “to-do” for each of the 100 days prior to Christmas?!?!?

The Doctor Will See You Now | February 8, 2010

The Doctor Will See You Now

Welcome to the doctor’s office.  Vintage metal cabinets that once adorned your favorite doctor’s office now feel at home in your office, den or dining room.  Made of heavy durable stainless steel, these metal cabinets were built to last.

It doesn’t always have to be wood.  Mix things up once in awhile and use some metal cabinets or tables and you’ll feel right at home.  If you are lucky enough to find some rusted metal ones all the better.  The doctor will see you now!

I like the industrial light bulbs … Read More »
