If it were cheaper

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Things nowadays are expensive. And choosing the right things to buy becomes a priority. Take my recent shopping trip to purchase some bunn coffee maker parts as an example, replacement parts now are costing close to hundred over dollars. I do understand that replacement parts are increasing in price according to the inflation indexes of […]

Organizing Your Pantry

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

When I first moved into our newly built house, I loved my pantry. It had deep shelves and finally I had a place to put my food and spices! I quickly learned, however, that it was difficult to find anything without having to take everything out first; then, of course, it all had to be […]

Blomus Designs Incorporated Into A New Home.

Monday, October 20th, 2008

If I wasn’t an architect, I’d be an interior designer.
Both disciplines are very creative although becoming an interior designer is a bit lighter on the math.
Anyway, as an architect specializing in new-home design, I get the privilege of meeting with all types of people dreaming of building their new home.
In addition to learning what people […]

My husband has a new job

Sunday, October 19th, 2008

We found out yesterday that my husband got the job he’s been interviewing for. That means that he’ll be working from home quite a bit more, and I’m worried he’ll be underfoot all the time. I’m used to having the house to myself during the day, and I am not sure how this […]

Making Your Own Address Numbers Plaque

Sunday, October 19th, 2008

My husband did not like the tacky stuck on numbers that were in front of our house so he bought one of those address numbers plaques that came with the numbers and the purchaser attaches them.  I liked the plaque idea and when we finished it really looked nice.  The numbers were printed on these […]

Pride Mobility Scooters

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

At first I know my dad was really hesitant to get the help he needed when I suggested an alternate means for him to get around. He was no longer able to walk very many steps at a time, and I could see in his face how much he longed to still be able to […]

Great corner hot tubs I found!

Friday, October 17th, 2008

I was out shopping for some new ideas on how to utilize the extra bathroom in this home I purchased. We had to redo the whole bathroom and wanted to convert it instead into a meditation room with one of those Small Corner Hot Tubs instead of a bathtub. I found some interesting information on […]

The Close Attention To Bonsai Tree Care Can Produce Wonderful Result

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

The Japanese are very closely related to close details of bonsai tree care but it was the Chinese who first cultivated it. Bonsai tree care requires very close attention and dedication unlike other bigger trees, as the grooming process is intensive. When we refer to bonsai tree care in the United States, the reference is […]

Want a Good Mattress? Choose Sealy Mattress

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

Sealy mattress is one of the best brands in the present market and they provide a good quality with an affordable price. Some would argue that a mattress is not closely a major purchase. However, consider the fact that the mattress is the place where you will sleep on 8 hours a night, for a […]

Two Days Till Elmo Live

Monday, October 13th, 2008

There’s only two days until I finally get to meet Elmo Live. Over the last few weeks I’ve done nothing but write about Elmo Live it seems and all that writing is based on a 3 minute video from YouTube. Shortly the blinkers will be removed from my eyes and I’ll be able to see […]

Inexpensive Landscaping

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Just moving in to our new house we knew there would be a lot of things that we would need to invest in in terms of upgrades but we did not realize how much they would all cost. Now we are down to just a few final renovations and it seems we are running out […]

Tiffany Lamp as Furniture

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

In any case, it is different strokes for different folks.  But there seems to be unity in opinion regarding modern office furniture today.  Let’s talk about what constitutes modern office furniture or contemporary office furniture. Contemporary office furniture is typically made of vinyl and steel.  Glass, which enhances the overall look of the furniture, also […]

Protecting Your Home Investment

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

We invest a lot in our homes, and we like to take care of them and maintain them properly.  These maintenance tasks are time consuming to us.  Our lives are so busy already, we need all the time saving advice we can get!
One of these time consuming tasks includes pressure washing.  Even though technically it […]

How Far Will My Gates Open?

Friday, October 10th, 2008

It wasn’t long that my family lived in our new home before my wife came to me and asked about installing gates at our driveway. We enjoy our privacy, and for some reason there are always cars pulling into our lane. We didn’t really feel comfortable with this happening on a regular basis. So, my […]

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Has this ever happened to you? After going out and spending a lot of money for that expensive new sofa, you get it set in your family room and the kids immediately spill a soda all over it. Well, unfortunately I’ve been there and had that happen. And even with Scotch guard protection on the […]
