Discount Shopping

Shopping for discounts and being aware of the "so called" bargain stores has made me decide to add a store that would carry everything one would need , from appliances to decor. The store is located under my profile where it says "Click here to go Shopping". This stores carries a large inventory and accepts major credit cards as well as PayPal.

If there is something you need and do not see here in my store, please send me a message or email telling me what it is you are looking for and I will do my best to get it for you. My store it updated regularly, so stop in often and see what's new and exciting. Enjoy looking and browsing and come back as often as you like

NOTES FROM HOME

How to Live in your Home

"Attitude and Atmosphere"

Creating an attitude in your home is the same as showing your emotions. Happy homes are full of color, art, and memorabilia. Atmosphere is like attitude. If decorating with candles and warm colors you are feeling romantic or calm. Sadness can be empty rooms which don't come to life when you enter. Making your home reflect your personality requires your special touch, even if it's a family photo or something from your past.

Bringing the outdoor, indoors, if you are in an area surrounded with water can be shown
with shell displays and water fountains. Hues of blue and green create the feel of the ocean. "Coastal Homes"magazines are a great reference. When surrounded by land or mountains, rock displays and warm rustic decor is charming. The look of country decor is very popular. Stores like, "Plow & Hearth" are great for ideas on country living. Magazines are a great way to see what is being done with decor. "Better Homes and Garden" or "Country Living" are good references and not expensive. Arts and crafts magazines are super for adding that lived in and unique characteristic to your home.

What ever you are creating, you can, most likely, get it from everyday magazines or books on home decorating. Don't be shy, try something new and unique.

Colors, Corners and Stairways

Colors in a room are so fulfilling and rich with emotion. Use color combinations that are right for you. The feel you are looking for should come through with your color choices and accessories.

Don't overlook corners. In small kitchens, for example, there is usually an untouched corner longing for attention. A small, but quaint, Bistro set can add a cozy feel and give your kitchen a bit of charm.

Overlooking stairways is very common. Sometimes the stairway can act as an art gallery and become an inspiring room of its own. Thus, turning your stairway into a fascinating and captivating part of your home to enjoy.
