Here we go again... too many things you all ask, and here is one of home existing problems..How to remove gunk! There is a lot of worries that too much gunk settles on the cabinets in kitchen, bathrooms and doors around the house, especially near handles. To make them look brand new you will need to mix a little vegetable oil with the 'magic' two parts of baking powder. Yep, thats all. Use the toothbrush to scrub the mixture into the surface and you will see the difference.<br />

<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="text-align: justify;">
When renovating kitchen, don't think you know all and you can just do it, there are too many details and things involved and it's very easy just with one tiny mistake to ruin it all.. Hire a consultant to put the things together, it will save you time and stress after!</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<strong>Cabinet depth</strong><br />
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="text-align: justify;">
I am so tired to hear that the 600mm is the standard minimum depth your cabinet. WHO told you so?????? At this depth you are limiting your options for sink and tapware and reducing your storage space. If you have the space and the budget, why not go wider and give yourself more storage depth? Depth can go as deep as 700mm or little as 400mm!</div>
<div data-mce-style="text-align: justify;" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<strong> Not allowing enough space for fridge doors to open... oh , dear, this that I am really tired of..</strong><br />
I see a lot of kitchen shop 'designs' that plan for our customers and even architects, where fridge is placed right up against the wall or box! On paper this position looks ideal, however in practice this is far from it... The problem lies with opening the door. In this position, it can only open 90 degrees with the fridge handle hitting the wall (If you lucky to open it). To make this matter worse, most refrigerators require doors that open more than 90 degrees in order to access the crisper and to remove shelves for cleaning. To avoid this, you can increase the width of the refrigerator niche (not a tidy look and space inefficient), place a tall cabinet between the wall and refrigerator.<br />
<br />
<strong>DRAWERS DRAWERS!</strong><br />
One of the best things in kitchen design has been the shift from cupboards to drawers for storage. Just love it! A kitchen of drawers creates a more flexible, functional and ergonomic space, easy access those far away corners.<br />
<br />
<strong> Only focusing on looks</strong><br />
We do plan kitchen for function not only style. You must identify: your preparation area, cooking area and washing area. Make sure they reflect how you want to use your kitchen, and don’t be restricted by conventional kitchen layouts or any rules.</div>

...f<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "freshome";"><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 13px;">urniture matters most be the most when it comes time to redesign your interiors. In fact, it should be the first component for your consideration. A lot of our clients ask about colours and they get surprised when we advice firstly to get the furniture sorted not colours (yes, we guide for the colour palette too).</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; line-height: 13px;">Remember, furniture makes a great focal point, so don’t hesitate to put it to good use. Pick the one element that, in your mind, clearly defines the room’s intended function and center your design around it. Arrange your other furnishings and décor items in such a way that the eye is always drawn to that same spot.</span><span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; line-height: 13px;"><br />
</span> <br />
<h2 style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<u>Furniture Dictates Flow of Movement</u></h2>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Speaking of arranging furniture, in addition to helping define function, these groupings also dictate how your friends and family will move through the space. Anyone who has tried to shimmy their way out of a too-tight seating area can tell you the importance of leaving the proper amount of – physical and visual – breathing room.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
When it comes to making sure you leave enough space, these are a few ground rules to keep in mind:</div>
<ul style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; list-style: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li><span style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"> Keep the number of pathways in a room to a minimum – two is fine.</span></li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Send movement around seating groups, not through them.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Leave enough room to stand between seating and tables.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Push furniture away from the walls. Stick to a 3 in. rule</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Arrange seating in clustered groupings to facilitate conversation.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Break large rooms into multiple groups.</li>
<li style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> When in doubt, take a test run through the space.</li>
</ul>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Those who are visual learners may enjoy having the ability to test out multiple arrangements without having to push furniture around all day.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: Freshome; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">When you first hear it, the term “visual weight” seems like a complex concept. However, in reality, you instinctually know what it is. We’ll show you: Think about how you would feel if all of your furniture was suddenly pushed to the same side of the room. It feels like you’re on the Titanic and one side is sinking, right?</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Visual weight is all about helping balance a room. If you’re dealing with multiple, big, heavy components make sure to stagger them throughout the space so that one side does not feel more weighted down than another. Do your best to group larger items together with smaller ones to help vary your points of visual interest.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">The best tool that we can give you for this job is totally free. Just use your eyes or mobile camera. When you think you’ve found an arrangement that works, take a moment to step back and look at the room as a whole. That small shift in perspective should be enough to clue you in on whether one side feels more weighted than the other and allow you to make adjustments accordingly.</span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<u>Furniture Shows Personal Style</u></span></span></h2>
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
</span></span>
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Last but not least, the furniture you choose to allow to fill your rooms is undoubtedly an expression of your unique sense of style. After all, some of us may flip over the simplicity of Scandinavian interiors, while others may prefer the collectivist comfort of a more eclectic design. Either way, the pieces that we allow into our homes speak volumes about our personalities.</span></span></div>
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: "freshome"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
You may recall reading about the psychological effect of the design and how the choices that we make effect other’s perception of us. Factors like the how much seating you provide for your guests, whether or not you prioritize comfort over style, and the brands that you buy all play a role, so weigh the decision of what furniture to buy with the utmost care.</div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-stretch: inherit; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
How do you go about finding a style that works for you? That’s easy. All you have to do is find pieces that you love and emulate their look. Design sites like Freshome are always a good place to start. But, don’t get too caught up in copying the pros. The best designs embrace individuality. Always remember to trust your instincts.</div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">
No matter how clean the home, all mattresses are prone to the same problem. When we sleep, we produce up to half a litre of sweat every night & shed about a gram of skin each day and although we wear night clothes, which we wash regularly, together with our bed linen, this is no protection against what happens to the mattress.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">
Very quickly the mattress will become host to a multitude of horrors, from bacteria to fungal spores and microscopic house dust mites which feed off dead flakes of skin. Is it any wonder that without cleaning a mattress, it could be the dirtiest item in your home? It is estimated that there are up to 2 million house dust mites living in a mattress and in an average pillow, 10% of its weight is made up of dead skin and dust mites.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">
House dust mites find a mattress the perfect breeding ground. With warmth and moisture and no natural enemies, they will establish in a mattress within several months and it is their droppings which cause most problems. These have been medically proven to trigger a whole host of allergic reactions, from Asthma, Eczema and Bronchitis, to Itchy Eyes and Sneezing.</div>
<div style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;">
Even protective bedding sheets may be largely ineffective in reducing problems like asthma, when they are the only measure taken to combat an allergy.</div>

Sometimes no matter how clean we try to keep the carpet your carpet will eventually become the victim of drops, spills, accidents and whatever is on the bottom of your shoes.<br />
<h3 class="slideTitle" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1em; margin: 18px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Blot Stains, Don’t Rub Them</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="imageContent" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; font-family: Abel, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Dab stains with a cleaning solution and a clean cloth, paper towels, or a sponge. The key is blotting. Blotting puts a small amount of pressure on the stain to soak it up,. “Rubbing causes the particles to get ground into the carpet fibers, and this can lead to the premature breakdown of those fibers.” Always blot from the outside of the stain inward, as blotting outward can spread the stain.</div>
<div class="imageContent" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; font-family: Abel, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="imageContent" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<h3 class="slideTitle" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1em; margin: 18px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The Club Soda Process <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">You may have heard that club soda is effective against beer and wine stains. It’s true—if you use it correctly.Blot the area with the soda on a cloth. If that doesn’t work, mix one part white vinegar with one part water and pour it into a handheld sprayer. Spray the solution on the entire stained area and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes to soak in. Then press a clean sponge onto the area to soak up the solution and the stain. You may have to repeat this process to eradicate the stain.Once the stain is gone, rinse the spot with warm water. Use your hand to brush the carpet strands into their natural direction. Finally, lay white paper towels over the area and weigh them down with something heavy, like a phone book. The towels will absorb the dampness from the carpet. Leave the towels in place until the carpet is dry, usually about one day.</span></h3>
<div style="font-family: Abel, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">
<h3 class="slideTitle" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1em; margin: 18px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Try Shaving Cream - <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">the best carpet cleaner for general stains is ordinary shaving cream—”It will remove just about every type of stain.” Apply the shaving cream directly to the stain and let it set for about 30 minutes. Once the shaving cream has set, blot it away with a dry white cloth. Finish by spraying the area with one part vinegar mixed with one part water and then wiping away the solution with a cloth.</span></h3>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Abel, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">
<h3 class="slideTitle" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 22px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1em; margin: 18px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 5px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Freeze-Dried Gum <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">You step in chewing gum out on the street but don’t realize it until you tracked that gross, sticky mess onto your carpet. To get it out, head to the freezer and grab a couple of ice cubes. Freeze the gum with ice cubes for about 30 seconds. Once the gum is frozen solid, use a spoon to lift up the glob and cut the strands of carpet as close to the gum as possible. If you cut only a small amount of carpet, the spot shouldn’t be noticeable.</span></h3>

Dishwasher Detergent vs Grease<span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">The best method against difficult-to-clean grease stains is to use a drop or two of a grease-cutting dishwashing detergent, such as Joy, in a cup of water. It’ll cut through the grease in the carpet just the way it does on your dishes. Put the solution in a spray bottle and spray it on the stain. “Then blot it up.” Again, you may need to do this multiple times for larger stains.</span></h3>

Heat Wax <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">Burning candles in the house can result in wax dripping onto the carpet, where it quickly dries and gets embedded. Recommend heating it back up to remove it. Place a white cloth over your iron, then put the iron on top of the wax to warm it up. Finally, scrape off the wax with a butter knife.When you are done doing that, lay a paper towel over the surface area and iron on the paper. The wax is melting and binds to the paper, and the wax will be gone after a few more applications. Important note: Don’t use the iron this way for more than 30 seconds or you risk burning the carpet. And be sure to use a white cloth and white towels since colored ones can transfer the color onto the carpet when heated up, especially if you have a light-colored carpet.</span></h3>

Hydrogen Peroxide to the Rescue <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">Few carpet stains are as obvious as blood. But suffering a paper cut on your finger and getting a few drops on the carpet doesn’t mean your shag is ruined. Hydrogen peroxide will get out blood all day long. First, loosen up dried blood with water mixed with a mild detergent. Then scrape off as much blood from the fibers as you can. To get the remainder, apply hydrogen peroxide directly to the stain. The solution will immediately foam when it contacts the blood, so don’t be surprised. Then dab the hydrogen peroxide with towels to dry the carpet.</span></h3>

Clean Pet Accidents Organically <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">Even well-trained pets can have an accident on the carpet. Prefer organic cleaners, which can costs about $10 for a spray bottle, rather than using chemicals. Spray the cleaner at the strain. Some scrubbing will be necessary. Then wipe up the cleaner with a cloth or towels. Eco-Spot and similar cleaners can also be used to remove other types of stains, including coffee and sauces.</span></h3>

Candy Crushed <span style="font-family: "abel" , "helvetica" , "arial" , "lucida" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 16px;">If you have kids in the house, it’s only a matter of time before candy ends up in the carpet. Try to scrape it with a spotter brush or a butter knife. Then, using a sponge, apply water mixed with a mild soap. “It is important to get all of the sugar out of the area on the carpet,” he points out. “Failure to do so will result in that area attracting dirt and debris easily.” Once the candy is removed, dry the spot by blotting it with a cloth or towels.</span></h3>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: whitesmoke; color: #333333; font-family: "verdana" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Dust mites are one of those entities in our homes that you can only see under a microscope. They tend to form in places where your body rests, including blankets, pillows, furniture, carpeting, and even your mattresses. There can be millions of dust mites in any area without you seeing them. Many people assume that they have allergies when they wake up with sinus pressure, when they are sneezing, or when their eyes are red and itching but in fact, they are probably sharing their mattress with lots of dust mites. The development of breathing problems such as asthma and bronchitis can also be linked to dust mites. </span></div>

though, you mustn’t iron the piece of wood directly; that’s where the rag and
water come in handy. At the end, if the result isn’t as smooth as you like it,
take some sandpaper and apply to the afflicted area. Take a look over the
tutorial and make your dented piece of wood almost good as new! </span><span style="color: black; font-family: "calibri"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , "arial" ,; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.25px;">It can get very frustrating to clean the wooden floor up to perfect shine especially after home renovation or other works... Easy and affordable solution! - scrub with Apple Cider Vinegar and water. Mix the two in any ratio you want. If the floor is very dirty, I'd make the solution very strong and use more Apple Cider Vinegar than water. Mop and scrub with this mixture. You might want to also wipe with rags, you don't have too if you don't want. The vinegar is actually good for wood...but if the floors are that dirty, you'll want to wipe to remove as much dirt as possible. </span></div>
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, san-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.25px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , "arial" ,; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.25px;">Apple Cider Vinegar contains tannins, which condition the wood while it cleans. It cuts grime and makes hardwood floors absolutely glow. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, san-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.25px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "helvetica" , "arial" ,; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16.25px;">Once in a while I also add a couple teaspoons of Lemon Oil to the mixture...but you could use just about any Essential Oil, or even baby oil. If you do add oil, stir the mixture often to keep the oil mixed. </span><br />

Here at <em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">Room Envy</em> we talk about all those qualities that make a home desirable: Lots of space – you can’t get enough of it ; Natural light – you can’t get enough of it; Elegant furnishings – you can’t get enough… anyway I think you get the drift. One aspect that’s very underrated is the paintwork. Who hasn’t agonised over finding the right colour and then when you finally think you have it, wincing at the thought of buying enough to cover those walls (I mean, these days good paint isn’t cheap is it?). Which is why I love these 10 tips from <a href="http://bit.ly/1gWw180" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #3a9c94; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.25s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">Pride and Joy</a>.</div>

White is not always right! Most people will say white when you ask them to select the best colour for a small room. But you can make a room appear larger by painting the walls a light shade; or if you want the space to feel cosy and warm, go for rich tones. Avoid dark colours.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">2. What’s the room used for? If it’s a breakfast room or part of the kitchen where you drink coffee or juice first thing in the morning, choose a sunny hue. If it’s a bedroom where you want to unwind, however, choose soft tones which are easy on the eye.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">3. Go light! Light colours are great for opening up a small space; they make a room appear larger than it is. Don’t go for white; light green will make your small space seem as open as the great outdoors.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">4. Glossy glamour! Using a type of gloss finish will open up a small space. Use semi-gloss in the kitchen or bathroom but stick with the gentler eggshell and satin finishes for the lounge or bedroom.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">5. Marvellous monochrome. Use colours that are close in tone so that the eye moves smoothly without any interruption. This tricks the mind into believing a room is larger! Use colours from the same parts of the colour palette.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">6. Receding walls. Try using a slightly darker shade on the wall opposite the door; this will make the wall appear to recede and so make the room seem more spacious.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">7. Avoid deep colours. Red, dark blue and deep purple will make the room seem smaller. They are, however, the cosiest colours so it depends what you want!</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">8. Sample stripes. Painting vertical stripes on the walls of a small room will make the ceiling appear higher. You’ll need to do some planning if you want neat lines!</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">9. White woodwork. White woodwork not only looks clean but will refract the light back into the room given an open, spacious feeling.</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
<em style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">10. Splurge! Buy quality paint. Decorating small spaces obviously costs less than large spaces. Pick a quality brand and you can choose from a wide array of colours and enjoy better coverage and a longer life for your walls!</em></div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444444; font-family: Quattrocento; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; word-wrap: break-word;">
Paint advice, you can’t get enough of it!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px;">Let’s be completely honest. Nobody really likes spiders. Even if they are completely harmless little things, nobody really wants spiders hanging around inside their house. Few tips below how to keep them away..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px;">1. Peppermint: </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;"> spiders <u><b>hate</b></u> peppermint? Fill a spray bottle with peppermint essential oil and water, and then spray it around your home. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">2. Clean the house. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">Keeping your home neat and tidy, free of dust or webs is the best way to keep spiders from moving in. Regular vacuuming, dusting, and de-cluttering will keep any insects from making themselves at home!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">3. Vinegar: </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">White vinegar has about five trillion uses around the house, and repelling spiders is one of them! Repelling spiders with vinegar is much like repelling them with peppermint oil, in that you fill a spray bottle with vinegar and water, and spray all the cracks and crevices around your home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">4. Cats: </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;">Cats are a great spider deterrent! Four legged furry friends can be great hunters and will definitely not let a spider crawl across the floor without going on the prowl and taking care of business!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23.4375px; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
Looking for best eco cleaning product? - use lemons! Beside they leave a fresh smell, it’s the best natural replacement for industrial cleaners and disinfectants. With high content of citric acid, low pH and antibacterial proprieties, lemons don’t damage fabric or wood like your megastore products do. Always use with warm soapy water and a clean cloth. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: justify; vertical-align: baseline;">
1. Clean antique real-brass objects. Test on a small area before using on the whole surface. But be careful with brass plated things, as the juice will harm the material.<br />
2. Scrub away the dirt off copper pots or dishes.<br />
3. Shine your car’s chrome decorations. Be sure to use salt with the lemon cleaner.<br />
4. Spray on stains, as an effective overnight germ-killer. Rinse the next day and leave the cloth to dry to see the full benefits.<br />
5. In partnership with an old toothbrush, use lemons to scrub out grout.<br />
6. Replace odd odors from your overly-used microwave oven. A 3 quarters filled cup of water with only a few spoons of lemon juice, heated to boiling point and then left for 10 minutes in the microwave, will make your oven smell fresh. With a clean cloth, it will look great as well.<br />
7. Clean laminated counter tops.<br />
8. Scrub with salt on grates and grills.<br />
9. Plastic food containers can be submersed to remove stains and odors.<br />
10. Use cream of tarter with the lemon to make a paste and use it for 30 minutes on stains from polyester and cotton materials. Wash normal afterward.<br />
11. With a gallon of hot water, sanitise you garbage disposal by pouring in the drain.<br />
12. Use as fabric softener. Test a tiny area first, as lemons should not be used of silks or other delicate fabrics.<br />
13. Boost degreasing ability of your normal dish soap, by mixing it with some drops of lemon juice.<br />
14. Freshen-up your refrigerator, once a week.</div>

<br />
Before you start washing and whitening your pillows:<br />
<br />
<ul style="background-color: white; border: none; color: #3a3a3a; font-family: PMN55, arial, verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; margin: 0px 0px 15px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Check the care label to confirm that your pillow (down or synthetic) can be machine washed – most can be.</li>
<li style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">Remove the pillow case and any pillow protector</li>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #3a3a3a; font-family: PMN55, arial, verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;"> When we are sleeping our body continues to sweat to keep the body at a comfortable temperature. One of the most common reasons why pillows can turn yellow is sweat. As the sweat dries, it can leave a yellow stain on the pillow. </span><br />
<div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #3a3a3a; font-family: PMN55, arial, verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">There is nothing to embarrassed about and before dumping the pillow and buy the new ones, try washing it and whitening. You will need:</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #605f5f; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; clear: both; color: #605f5f; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px; text-align: left;">
How to clean a garbage disposal? You will need <span style="background-color: white; color: #605f5f; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px;">a muffin or brownie pan. If you don’t have either of those, just use an ice cube tray. Slice up some lemons and limes and place a few in each of the cups; </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #605f5f; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px;">some distilled white vinegar. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #605f5f; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px;">Fill each cup up almost to the top. Are you having fun yet? I sure am. These tablets are so easy to make, and I love the smell of lemons and limes. You could even use orange peels if you’d prefer. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #605f5f; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25px;">Take your tin and carefully place it into the freezer. Leave it in the freezer for at least 24 hours to ensure the vinegar freezes completely.</span><b>Disclaimer</b>. As good as these look, don’t try licking them. When you take them out of the tins you’ll be able to smell the vinegar. From afar, however, they look good enough to pop into your drink. My hubby actually licked his finger after touching one the day I made them and regretted it immediately.<br />
They definitely are beautiful, but they’re not for consumption, so take care to store them in a bag in the freezer labeled DO NOT EAT.<br />
When you go to use one, you’ll need one more ingredient – baking soda. Start running some really hot water into the sink for about a minute. Turn the water off and pour about 1/2 cup of baking soda into the disposal, followed by one of the tablets. You’ll hear a little fizzing when you drop it in. Turn the water back on as a trickle and turn on the disposal. Push the rest of the tablet down into the disposal. Please watch your fingers! You should see some bubbling up from the disposal and you’ll be able to smell the vinegar and citrus. The ice actually helps sharpen your disposal blades. Using a tablet once a day should keep your disposal smelling fresh and clean.<br />

working on few kitchen projects and many questions come while working with
clients and spaces… It doesn’t matter if you are moving into an existing
kitchen, remodelling the one you have or building a new one, understanding a
few key measurements and organizational guidelines can help your culinary life
run more smoothly. </span></div>

cookware, provide a place where you can cook and bake. When it’s thoughtfully
arranged, these functions operate logically, making work in your kitchen a
better experience. Here’s few tips for an ideal setup. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="background: white;">Preparation areas are best kept clear of other
items, since you will always be taking out bowls, plates and utensils there.
Allow at least 36 inches (92 centimetres) of uncluttered countertop space for
preparation in a small kitchen. Larger kitchens will have much more. This is
one reason that islands are so popular. They provide broad and well-lit
surfaces on which to perform the majority of kitchen tasks.</span></span><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

pots, frying pans and baking sheets in the vicinity around your burners and

<span style="background: white;">Allow 21 to 36 inches (53 to

place wall ovens with a free countertop immediately next to them so that you
can set down hot food immediately. Place seasonings, breadboards and potholders
in nearby drawers and cupboards. </span></span><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Recommended
Dimensions of Kitchen Elements</span></b></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white;">The dimensions of all the pieces in your kitchen
are important to get right to make the best use of your space. A common
refrigerator width is slightly less than 36 inches (92 centimetres). The
problem is often the depth. In recent years some manufacturers have designed
them to be much deeper than a 24-inch (61-centimeter) base cabinet. You
can still buy shallower freestanding refrigerators, but you have to pay close
attention to the dimensions listed in its specifications to be certain. The
other option is built-in configurations, but they are significantly more
expensive. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Look for a depth of 30 inches (76 centimetres)
or less, excluding handles, unless you can design your kitchen space to accept
a deeper unit. Another thing to consider is the swing of the refrigerator door.
Always examine the swing direction to see if it will meet an obstruction.</div>
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';">Here
you can see how the height of the cabinets plays an important part in the
configuration. Upper cabinets are normally positioned at 18 inches (46 cm)
above the countertop and are 30 to 42 inches (76 to 107 cm) in height. Consider
that your average maximum reach over and into an upper cabinet is 70 to 80
inches (178 to 203 cm) above the floor. Cabinets set at above 7 feet will
likely need to be accessed with a step ladder. Cabinets above 8 feet are not
practical for the majority of people; however, they may serve as storage for
seasonal or decorative items, to be reached with step stools and ladders. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #333333; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';"><div style="text-align: justify;">
The standard dimensions for base cabinets are 24
inches (61 centimetres) deep and 36 inches (92 cm) high. In general people are
getting taller, so some homeowners are bumping up the counter height to 38
inches (97 cm).</div>
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Another
important dimension to consider is the distance between cabinets. Entry points
can be as little as 36 inches (92 cm) when there is a cabinet on only one side.
Stay at least 42 inches (107 cm) from the face of a cabinet to the one on the
other side; 48 inches (122 cm) is even better, but going beyond 60 inches (152
cm) is too wide in most cases. However, if it is a U-shaped kitchen, you could
get away with up to 96 inches (244 cm).</span><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

fast! Before work begins, make sure you and your contractor and designer

at least one week ahead of construction — particularly if you have furniture or

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px;">We, interior decorators/designers are creative types by nature and love to imagine, dream and explore, following our intuition. Here will put great principles that will guide you to great results. These are just tried and true things that work. And these aren’t tricks or skills that take years to master. Anyone can do them from day one. Consider this a foundation for developing your own quirky, creative, rule-breaking intuition.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;"> </b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">I get calls all the time from homeowners who want to pick a paint color before they move in or start decorating house. I get the logic. Why not arrive to walls with a fresh coat of paint and avoid the chaos while painting? Of course you can do it this way, but in my opinion it’s not ideal. <b>Rule no1. </b></span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">Pick the paint color last. </b><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; text-align: start;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 25.600000381469727px;">There are thousands of paint colors with various tints, tones and shades. And each one looks different from home to home, because light sources vary, meaning what looks good in your current home might not in your new one - </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: left;"> I tell this every my client million</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: left;"> times!</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">. You want the color that best complements your upholstery, artwork, rug and whatever else. You can pick that color only if your stuff is actually inside your home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">2. Give your furniture some breathing room. </b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">Resist overcrowding a room. Gracious living means space to maneuver with ease. This is really great news if you are working with a tight budget. You don’t need to fill up a space with lots of furniture! Spend more of your budget on fewer but better-quality pieces, and your room will look better than if it’s stuffed to the 'cheap' market finds that your friends 'like'.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">3. Artwork at the right height. </b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">Galleries and museums hang artwork so that the midline (center) of each piece is 57 inches to 60 inches from the floor. (The average human eye level is 57 inches.) And you should do the same! I find many houses that artwork hanged 90inches from the floor and almost reaches the ceiling..what is this about???? </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">In a room like this, where the ceilings soar, there might be a tendency to hang the art higher. But remember: It needs to relate to </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">human</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;"> scale, not the structure’s scale.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">If you’re not sure, take a picture. It’s remarkable how much a photo can reveal. Print it out or use Photoshop or an app to draw on the photo. This can give you a sense of whether a larger or smaller piece of art is needed or a tall plant might be best to fill a vacant spot. Simple, isn't?</span></div>
<div class="gallery-photo-container portrait " style="overflow: hidden;">
<div class="gallery-text" style="margin-bottom: 18px;">
<div style="line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>4. Know how to arrange furniture on a rug.</b> There are basically three ways you can arrange furniture on your rug. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All on: The rug is large enough to place all of the furniture legs on top of it. This creates a more luxurious feel. For this, bigger is better. Just be sure to leave at least 12 to 18 inches of floor surface on all four sides of the rug’s borders. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All off: If you have a small room, keeping all legs off the rug is a great cost-effective choice. You don’t want to pick too small a rug, though, or it may look insignificant, like an afterthought. The rug should appear as though it could touch the front legs of each of the seating pieces. This approach is best suited when you’re layering a pattern over a larger solid or textured rug.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Front on:</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"> Put just the front feet of all your seating pieces on the rug to tie the arrangement together visually and create a well-defined space while lending a feeling of openness.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: justify;">
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">5. Create a focal point. </b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">There are leading roles and supporting cast members in any production. The same holds true in design. Choose your star and make it the focal point to anchor a room. Allow other items to take a secondary role. D</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">on’t ask everything to have a leading role; it will just result in visual noise. </span></div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><div style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: justify;">
Your focal point might be a dramatic hood in the kitchen, a mantel and art piece in the living room or a headboard in the bedroom. Whatever it is, choose something that will draw attention. In this room the fireplace and the lighting work together as a collective focal point, bringing your eye right to the center of the composition and anchoring it there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">6. Edit your collectibles. </b><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">Don’t hang on to a piece that just doesn’t fit. I don’t care if your great-aunt gave it to you. If it’s not working for you, then find a new home for it (maybe in a different room).</span><br style="text-align: start;" /><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">The unifying theme here is the use of black in the utilitarian pieces. The balance is almost perfect. It reminds me of something </span><span style="text-align: start;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 25.600000381469727px;">Coco Chanel said about accessorising: </span></span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: start;">“Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” In design, know when to stop.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: left;">7. Vary the scale. </b><span style="color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px; text-align: left;">This point drives me insane! No matter how I deal with every client, most still do not listen! - <u>What looks good in the store may look like an elephant in the room when you bring it home. Or it’s too tiny to be of any significance. So always vary scale and proportion. </u></span></div>
</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: proxima-nova, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 25.600000381469727px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
The oversize sunburst mirror frame fills up the wall space nicely here, while the sand dollars make an interesting grouping below. They would be much too insignificant individually. Threes and fives make for more pleasing arrangements than even numbers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="text-align: start;">8. Be bold. </b><span style="text-align: start;">Personality is what makes a space great. Make your own statement and have fun. The more you try, the more you will begin to see what works and what doesn’t. </span></div>
<span style="text-align: start;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
Incorporate unexpected elements for drama. The unconventional ottoman seats, library-style bookshelves and oversize chandelier here are all unexpected in a conventional living room, but the result has charisma. Eschew expected pieces and interpretations if you want a room that will really wow.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="text-align: start;">9. Ignore all principles in favor of creativity. </b><span style="text-align: start;">Having some guidelines</span><i style="text-align: start;"> </i><span style="text-align: start;">gives people a good starting point for furnishing and decorating their home, even if some of them aren’t practical for a particular space.</span><br style="text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;"><u>Go with something personal that makes you smile and, above all, is comfortable. Overly designed rooms don’t really translate in modern life. A pillow collection and an art arrangement that are seemingly haphazard, as shown here, create a dressed-down look with plenty of style.</u></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px;">Frustrated from cats scratches? If its not too deep and leather not teared apart - use Olive Oil to fix! This might sound like a waste of time, but it’s proven that you can remove scratches from leather chairs or sofas with a simple solution from your own pantry. No other substances or industrial products. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px;"> Be warned though: we don’t handle deep scratches; those can be un-salvaged. But you can always apply regular olive oil on a damaged area. Take a cloth and really rub it in. A paper towel after this, to buff it off is also recommended. Hence, you are left with a oil-free and scratch-free leather sofa. Now that’s amazing! No toxic products, no complicated mixtures. Just your ordinary household oil to do the trick.</span></div>
