Enjoy the Outdoors

I wish we had enough space for a patio at home. I really wanted to have one because I've seen a lot of beautiful patio furniture. Plus of course I really love the outdoors. Too bad as of the moment, the place where we are staying at does not have one. Maybe when we build our dream vacation house, I will make it a point that I will have a space to admire the outdoors. It's fun and relaxing just staying outside, enjoying maybe the sunset, watch birds chirp, listen to the wind blowing on the trees, ah what a lovely setting. I'd love something like that when we're old and gray, away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Baldwin Products

I came across Baldwin products when we were buildig the house where we're staying now. I've been looking for products in the internet a lot. The task of finding the right interior and exterior door hardware, bathroom accessories, and cabinet pulls was assigned to me. While doing my search, I couldn't help but notice the beautiful designs of Baldwin, just the way I like it. But the thing is, it was not available where we are staying right now. But given the choice, I would really pick those beautiful stuff I saw at doorhardwareplus.com.

Exterior Shutters

I really admire houses with exterior shutters. This is the first thing I noticed when I was in the States. I don't know, but I really find houses with shutters attractive. It adds beauty to the exterior of the house. When we were still in the planning stage of building our house, I was looking at a lot of American inspired houses and houses with shutters really caught my attention. I know you'll agree with me that it's really beautiful. Had I known that it can be made out of fiberglass, I would have considered it. Oh well, maybe in the next construction ^_^.

Fashionable Door Handles

I know of somebody who is building their dream house and they are really very excited about it. She enjoys going to home depots to scout for some stuff for their house just as I enjoyed going a few years back. Building a house brings joy, stress and frustration at the same time. It's really frustrating that you can never sometimes find the things you found in the magazines or things that you found online. I remember the time we were building our house, it was like my life depended on home magazines or some home building websites. I would surf the net a lot for fresh ideas. My friends would also recommend some stuffs and I am really thankful to them. That's why today, whenever I find some nice and cool stuff for the house in the internet, I immediately share it with people whom I know are building a house. Finding these door handles is very timely. My friend has asked my opinion about doors. I can share with her this web site where I found nice door handles. Since she can't decide yet which door handles to use, she should see the handles being sold in this website first. I'm sure when she gets to see everything there is in this website, she'll thank me, just like what I did when it was our turn to build this house. I owe so much to my friends who have been patiently helping me with the design and all.

Garage Floor Tile

I know a lot of people who take for granted this part of the house. They're like, "Oh never mind, it's just the garage anyway." I don't blame them really, there must be some reason for them to think that way. Maybe they went over their budget. When we built our house, everything was taken into consideration. We wanted to make our garage beautiful or if not let's just say presentable. This is the part of our house which visitors see first. It had the same amount of planning as the other parts of the house. One major decision that has to be made is garage floors. The floor area is quite huge, so we had to take that into consideration. Safety is our concern too, since carwash will be done in the garage. I don't want accidents happening you know. But I guess we made the right choice, I am happy with the outcome of our garage. For those of you who are in need of garage floors, carguygarage.com is the place for you.

Furniture Store

I love all the stuffs that can be found in these furniture stores. It's the kind of furnitures I would love to have in our home. Take for example their
Living Room Furniture, it's really beautiful. When I first saw it, I immediately fell in love with it. Our living room would look elegant if I put this kind of furniture.

Their Bedroom Furniture is equally beautiful. I was kidding my husband that if we put this kind of bedroom set, we'd feel like a king and queen. It's like sleeping in a 5-star hotel room.

When I showed him this website, he browsed through all the collection but got stuck with their Home Office Furniture. For now he really doesn't like what he has in his office, hhhmmm maybe he's thinking of replacing them?

Lighting Needs

Have you noticed when you step into a house, lighting plays a big role in making the house really look beautiful? It creates a certain ambiance especially if lights are placed strategically. My husband is very particular about the kind of lights he wants installed in the entire house. He goes for soft lighting effects so he uses warm lights. I also like his choice for chandeliers, something in the category of antiques. I'm very happy and satisfied with the lighting here at home, and thanks to my husband who took pains in studying every detail before coming up with the decision on the kind of lights that are to be installed.

Where's My Beautiful Dress?

Grrrrrr!!! I'm sure I placed it here, somewhere. Hmmmm...Have you been looking for that dress you wore a couple of months back but couldn't find it anymore because of a cluttered closet? I was once a clutter queen, especially in the closet department. I'm the type that wouldn't want to throw/giveaway out-dated clothes, clothes that haven't been worn in years, clothes that don't fit, clothes that I'm guilty of throwing or giving away because of guilt of how much I bought them, things like "I can't throw them away, it was given by blah,blah,blah." But I'm happy to say that I'm no longer like that, and I have improved so much in organizing my closet. I remember I posted a picture of my closet in one of my entries.

Here are some tips to help you organize your closets:

- Sort and separate. I group together the same type of clothes. Example, put together all sleeveless shirts in one shelf, long sleeves shirts in another shelf, etc.

- You do the same for hanging clothes too. Like items should be hanging together.

- Colorize! This makes the closet look appealing. Uh oh, I need to be doing this, my closet is not in living color. By doing this, you will see what colors you have a lot of, and what you are missing. It makes sense, right?

Now you will be able to "shop" in your closets and find new outfits, it will be easier to mix and match and put together outfits you didn't know you had.

Hot Spots

I guess all of us want to have a spic and span home...here are a few things that may do the trick...I need all these pretty bad, even if you say we just moved to our new home =(

"Now what is s Hot Spot? When you walk into a room, the Hot Spots are the first thing you see, and when left unattended will gradually take over. Here's how we can find some hot spots in our homes. Take a walk around the outside of your home. Look for that "hidden" clutter you walk past every time you enter your front or back doors. You know, the boards leftover from an old project, the paint bucket that didn't get thrown away, the old furniture that has sat in the rain for a couple of years, the broken ladder or wheelbarrow that is too scary to use, or the broken bicycles, trikes, sandboxes, and other toys that your kids have outgrown.

See how much of this clutter, the both of you can haul out as a team. Do you have a lot of stuff in your yard that you want to fling?"

Come on, let's all do this together, I know it's hard, but when will we start? Not tomorrow or in the days to come...but TODAY...LET'S GO!
