Painting a house and choosing a color scheme is one of the most important parts of decorating or re-decorating any dwelling space. This is because a color scheme not only decides your whole theme, it also plays an important part on the moods of the inhabitants. Color is an extremely important and influential part of life for most people, even though we do not know it and a house or work space full of jarring colors can actually play havoc with a person’s efficiency and amiability. Therefore, it is extremely important for you to pay a lot of attention and give enough time and consideration to the color scheme of your house. Selecting a color scheme that goes with your personality will not only make your home feel like a haven for you, it will also ensure that you enjoy every moment that you spend in it.

Though today most people think that “curtains” refers to any window covering hung to block light and provide privacy that really isn’t the case. Technically speaking, curtains made of material sufficiently translucent to filter light that comes through windows are called sash curtains. While they may be opened or pushed to the window sides, sash curtains are often kept closed all the time. Draw curtains (correctly called draperies but never “drapes”, which is a trade term) are made of material heavy or thick enough to block the light altogether.

The fall holiday season is just great; especially for kids (of all ages). Involving your children in holiday decorating allows you to share a very positive activity with them and gives you the opportunity to teach them something about the holiday at the same time.

When the holiday in question is Thanksgiving, there are a number of décor components children can find to make your Turkey Day table festive. Colored leaves are a great place to start. You can even make a game of finding them and give prizes for the biggest, most colorful and prettiest leaves. Be sure to collect a lot of leaves, and gently wash and pat them dry before using in your décor.

Maximize the Space in a Small Foyer or Hall with Style

Do you love the look of those stately homes of England with their huge entrance halls? On this side of the Atlantic, your home probably wasn’t blessed with an entry even half that big. However, even if your foyer or entry hall lacks enough space for a couple of inviting benches and a walk-in closet, you can still make it appear stylish and welcoming with a bit of planning and interior design deception.

Why deception? Because mirrors are the quickest and best way to visually expand small spaces, a fact that famed interior designer Billy Baldwin demonstrated way back in the 1930s, when many of his New York clients lived in apartments that lacked foyers and coat closets altogether. Indeed, in his own New York apartment, Baldwin cleverly used freestanding walls and bookcases to create an entry area and a pair of antique armoires to hold coats.
