New Color!

I added some new color to my guest bathroom. I have a lot of white in there but had decided I was sick of the brighter colors I’d used before. However, it still needed to be bright just because I don’t have a window in that room. I settled on turquoise and also took out almost all of my accessories and am now just a lot happier with it. To me at least turquoise is bright and cheerful without being annoying.

What to Look for in a Home

I watch tons of house buying shows. There’s a different approach that both professional and homebuyers take. When someone is buying a home they worry about the color schemes and the layout. When someone is purchasing the home to flip or remodel they focus mostly on the outside. It’s the first time I’ve seen someone buy a home based off of its windows and doors. However, they probably understood what a selling feature this can be and also how it would affect their carrying costs. If you ever lived with a single paned window in Utah like I have then you know how on cold mornings you can put your hand against it and literally feel the cold coming in.

You can get several different types of quotes  just by using a simple series of drop down menus when you visit alldoubleglazing.co.uk. This includes quotes for doors, windows, double glazing, and conservatories. If you think that it’s too expensive then there are also articles about getting a grant for it. There’s also info about dealing with high pressure sales people. It helps you to get the knowledge you need to look at both home buying and home renovation from a more professional and less emotional standpoint so you don’t regret your purchase.

Home business, literally

I love a good success story that involves a home business, especially when it’s literally a home business. Let me explain. In 1999 Justblinds.com was a small home business that specialized in window treatments. They have everything from Roman shades, roller shades, & even faux wood blinds. Roman shades are one of the hottest items in decorating. Trust me, do not try to make these yourself. It’s a lot cheaper & more enjoyable to just buy them.

Justblinds.com has over 200,000 satisfied customers, talk about successful. They are one of the largest independent dealers in window coverings in the US. I’m the decorating princess, & they had products that even I hadn’t seen & at great prices. It’s truly an inspirational story about a home business that deals in window coverings for the home.
