 You may have designed your kids’ room earlier as well, but they cant continue with Mr. Mickey on their walls, coz they are now in High school! They might be hiding their soft toys under their beds. Now that they have grown up, it is high time you changed the entire look of their rooms. Here are some ideas to decorate their haven.
First of all, sit with your young man/ woman to discuss the likes and dislikes. Share the decorating ideas with them- what kind of flooring they want, the window coverings, the accessories and mainly, the color of the walls.
After discussing the plan, take into account the size of the room, the practicality of the style and of course, your budget.
Now choose the theme of the room. If your teenager loves animals, then decorating the room in a tropical style will be the best. Since they are so much popular these days, you will be able to find the fabrics, accessories and materials in the stores easily.
The tropical style demands a sense of warmth. The exotic sense of the room will keep the teenager inspired. So, use different animal prints and grass cloth on the walls.
The furniture should be comfortable. What about soft cushions of a zebra stripe couch? Well, it will give the perfect tropical effect!
Supply your teenager with a tiger print trunk for storage purposes. Your teen will find it good to store his/her shoes, bedding, or anything else which s/he leaves scattered around the room.
Keep fabrics lush and soft. A fake fur cheetah bed sheet is a good choice. You can also mix match the animal print designs for instance, leopard spots and tiger stripes with animal images. A lion poster on the wall will serve the purpose.
These decorating ideas will surely inspire your teenager to live in his/her private sanctuary.

 Furniture is one of the best ways to express your unique personality your style and your outlook of home décor. The right choice of furniture makes you and your visitors feel relaxed at your home. Your furniture will be more comfortable and inviting if they are chosen according to the general theme of your home.
Style:
Shop for the furniture that perfectly match the type of house you have. Furniture with clean lines will suit your home that is modern and crisp. On the other hand, furniture with a rustic style perfectly gels with your home that is colonial or a farmhouse.
Color:
Furniture fills your home and color fills the look of your furniture! You should choose furniture that complements the color of your home that is colored with neutrals such as beige and whites. If your home is colored with pastels, go for furniture with more dash and splash to beautify the rooms.
Price:
Decorating your home with furniture can be quite expensive. If you want to be more economical, find furniture on sale. There are number of markets, both real and virtual, selling discounted sets of living room, dining room and bedroom furniture. Another cost effective measure is to buy a set of furniture instead of buying each piece individually. You can also head for wholesale outlets rather than the retail showrooms.
Quality:
You should not forget to consider the quality of your furniture. If the furniture is priced right, that doesn’t mean that it will guarantee durability.
Room size:
You may get mad about a piece or a set of furniture. However, there is no use of the furniture if it doesn’t fit the size of your room. Large and heavy pieces of furniture are a total mismatch for your smaller rooms. On the other hand, delicate pieces or sets will be overwhelmed by rooms that are larger in size. Therefore, balance the size of your room and the furniture.

A Feng Shui living room should be a cozier place for the guests, a great place for conversation and a living room which circulates the positive chi. Here are a few tips for your perfect Feng Shui living room.
Sitting arrangement:
The furniture should not clutter your Feng Shui living room. Bulky sofas and sharp ended tables hinder the circulation of chi in your living room. So makes sure that the tables are not sharp ended. A round table will allow the free flow of chi around your living room. Arrange the chairs and couches facing the door so that you don’t have to turn back for the door. Seats should also be placed following an octagonal or circular shape. The arrangement should be never in a straight line.
Remember that your the arrangement of furniture in your Feng Shui should be done to encourage conversation.
Lighting:
Throw light in the corner and dark areas of your living room. That would attract chi to them which otherwise wouldn’t flow through those areas. Use decorative lighting arrangements which are neither too strong nor too dim.
Colors:
Warm colors are always preferable for cozier atmosphere in your living room. Color the walls of your Feng Shui living room with warm colors, colorful and comforting accessories and soft fabrics.
Use of cool colors such as blue and lavenders brings calm and restful feeling to your Feng Shui living room.
Mirrors:
Large mirrors create an illusion of space. If your living room is small, use large mirrors to open up the space.
The focal point:
The focal point in your Feng Shui living room should never be electronic equipment like Television. Keep the electronic equipments in a single furniture. Although you like much of entertainment, enclosing your television in a closed cabinet is preferable for your Feng Shui living room. Fireplace is an ideal focal point. Hence, arrange your furniture keeping in mind the centre of your living room that is the fire place.
Music:
Music symbolizes harmony and soothing effect. Create the desired effect by playing soothing music and let it vibrate all around your living room.

 Spring has arrived! So are millions of pollen spores and other allergens in spread in the air which causes allergies during this season. You don’t have to be outdoors to intensify your allergies. The dust particles sticking under the carpet, in the couch, in your bed spreads are welcoming enough for various types of allergies. The dust is in fact the pollution indoors. So, steer clear all the dust mites and mold inside your home causing allergic reaction. Clean your home and keep your home allergy-proof. Here are few tips to be followed which will help you cut down those household allergens.
The best place to start with is your own bedroom. Do you know that your bedroom is a safe haven for millions of dust mites to live in? These dust mites rest on your pillows, bed spreads, blankets and mattresses. Their population multiplies in July and August. Well, this shocking info will definitely drive you towards cleaning up the room. Wash your linens once a week in the hot wash mode. The temperature for washing the linens should be 130 degrees.
Another way to get rid of the indoor allergens is by buying allergen-proof pillow case and bed cover. We suggest you to buy them because they are really worth investing.
The second safe haven for the dust mites is your child’s stuffed animals laying all over your home. Get the stuffed animals washed. If you find that your child has out-grown the stuffed toys, it is better to throw them away rather than keeping them at home to encourage the breeding of dust mites.
We know your pet is your best friend. He is like a family member for you. But, you should also know that your pet is not a buddy to your allergies. It is also found that many people are allergic to cat dander. So, the very choice of pet should be made wisely. Since cats have the most allergens (followed by dogs), light haired female cats should be preferred to dark-haired male cats because they cause fewer allergy symptoms.
To control the dander you should make sure that your Fluffy stays off the furniture. Pet allergens also get accumulated on thick carpets, large draperies and upholstered furniture. So, you should keep them at some distance to the furniture. Don’t forget to wash your pet once a week.
Pollen is also a very sticky traveler. So, remove your shoes when you come inside the house. Washing your hair before you go to sleep is also a good way to cut down on wayward pollen spores that have collected there.
By following the guidance, you will realize that your home becomes allergy proof!
