By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Bob_Pardue]Bob Pardue

In most homes, your living room is the first room people see. Even though the
living room is used mostly to entertain guests, you still want the room to have a comfortable environment for you and all family members.As you look around your living room, you realize that many things need to be updated, but your budget won't allow a full remodeling job. So, you have been checking out some home decorating tips in magazines and on the Internet that will suit your budget.Below are a few ideas you can use to give your living room a whole new look for guests and family without spending a ton of money on remodeling.

Six Budget-Minded Ideas For a New Living Room

1. Add Slipcovers and Pillows

Change the color of your sofa and chairs by adding pre-made slipcovers. You can choose these in many different styles and colors that will match your living room decor.

Another home decorating idea is to use large colorful pillows or decorative throws on your sofa and chairs. This option, which may a little less expensive than slipcovers, will also give your living room a fresh new look.

2. Use Area Rugs Instead of Carpet

Do you have a very large living room with more than one seating area, but you prefer not to put down wall to wall carpeting? Your solution may be area rugs that will define each sitting area. The area rugs, which add color to your decor, look great on tile or hardwood floors.

If you happen to have carpet and small children, the area rugs come in handy for covering up stains.

3. Wall Decorating Ideas

Hang some modern artwork or mirrors on your walls facing the furniture for friends and family to admire. Cloth wall hangings are also very popular and can be hung above your couch or chairs. You will be amazed at how much this can change the aura of your living room.

Show off special moments you've shared with friends and family, by placing the photos in special frames and hanging them on your living room walls. Another home decorating idea that will add style to your house decor is clocks. A favorite is the grandfather clock, which can either be wall-mounted or freestanding.

4. Change the Living Room Lighting

A significant difference can be made by simply changing the lighting in your living room. Brighten up your living room home decor with more floor lamps by placing them in dark corners.

Displaying candles also provide perfect lighting and a warm atmosphere for special events or a romantic evening held in the living room.  Read More

Time Goes By - Decorate With Wall Clocks

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Doris_F]

The American College dictionary describes "CLOCK" as:
An instrument for measuring and indicating time, having pointers which move round on a dial to mark the hour, etc.
 Such a timepiece not carried on the person (distinguished from a watch)Prior to clocks, telling time was not very accurate, people were using the sun. Around 3500 B.C., the sundial came into use, and the word clock was first used in the 14th century. As time and technology progressed, our timekeeping methods and accuracy also changed. The first practical clock was in the 1600's and was driven by a pendulum, which had to be restarted or rewound periodically. Today we have a variety of options for keeping track of time. Powered by electricity and quartz battery, key wind mechanical, there is much to choose from. Our modern clocks are accurate, but reached the height of accuracy with the Atomic clock, which resets itself automatically on a daily schedule. What does the future hold for time keeping? Is there something better and more accurate coming? Most likely there will be because we always strive for something better.

It would be wonderful if we didn't need to be constantly reminded of time going by, but in this busy world, most of us find ourselves on schedules that need to be met. We need to keep track of appointments, deadlines in our business and private lives. All the equipment we use: watches, PDAs computers, and more show our schedules and time.

Wall clocks are one more way to keep track of time, but can do so in a functional and decorative manner to enhance your room or office. Wall clocks come in a variety of styles, materials, sizes, and themes.  Read More

Patio Decorating Ideas

By Albert Lee

Patios are all about being one with nature, and being surrounded by nature as it helps create a more relaxing atmosphere for both homeowner and guest. Of course it wouldn't be a patio without a few patio decorating ideas that would be in tune with the surrounding vegetation.

The size of the patio, as well as the area surrounding it would determine the number of decorations that would fit within and around the patio. Of course it wouldn't be a patio if it has something out of place, like a tool shed or the like. Greenhouses are just fine as long as it doesn't obstruct the view. Patio decorating ideas are created to make the patio owner feel more at home aside from the house itself.

Hammocks are the best thing to start with, and never without one near a patio. It can come with all shapes and sizes, and materials that would allow the homeowner to just approach and take a nap to pass the lazy afternoon away. More than just a decoration, they would likely think of it as a lure for the sleepy patio owner. Read More

How to Clean Leather (Keep Your Leather Furniture Looking Great)

One of the first fabrics that man fashioned to wear or use, leather has been a popular material from its beginnings. Leather is a beautiful, long wearing, breathable, natural fabric that has multiple uses, i.e., clothing, shoes, furniture, luggage, and vehicle interiors. This valuable fabric is an investment that will last for years if it is treated with care. Owners want to know how to correctly clean leather products because leather can be quickly ruined if handled incorrectly. Leather hides can be categorized as belonging to several types, depending on the process to preserve the hides. The piece of leather can be smooth, suede, dyed in a variety of ways, coated, or tanned naturally. The dye used to color the fabric can be of different types that demand different handling. A product that works beautifully on one type of leather can permanently stain a different type. It is important to read any manufacturer’s instructions to understand what type of finish was used to create the item.  There are general rules for how to clean leather, however. These rules apply to how to clean car upholstery, belts, purses, jackets or other clothing, as well as furniture, luggage, and leather shoes. All leather needs an environment that is not too wet, not too dry, not too hot, or not too cold. Any extremes in the atmosphere can cause irreparable harm to the hides.

Because leather is a natural fabric, it needs to breathe. Store leather in a cool area where it can have air circulating around it. Its color can also fade if it is kept in full sun. Furniture should be placed carefully in a room to avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Cars with leather seats need to be stored in a garage to preserve the color and to avoid permanent marks from the sun shining through the windows in the same pattern daily.

Leather can also dry out over time. Exposure to heat or direct sun can hasten this drying process. Moisture can and should be restored to the leather by rubbing in conditioners on a regular basis. This conditioning also helps leather repel some substances that might soak into a dried-out piece.

Removing stains can be a challenge on leather goods. Only use products that are specially formulated for safe use on leather. Always test the product on an inconspicuous spot to see if its use will change the color of the item. If the garment is one of a set (for instance, one of a pair of gloves) treat both items to maintain a color match. Small spots may respond to careful application of alcohol, corn starch, or cuticle remover applied with a cotton swab. This last suggestion will work by removing a thin layer of the leather, so be careful to test in an inconspicuous spot on dyed items. A water-stained garment may be saved by wetting the entire garment to attempt to match the “new” color.

An expert may need to be consulted to discover how to clean car upholstery that has unusual or extensive stains. Following a regular maintenance schedule and wiping up any spills immediately should keep the interior of the car attractive and comfortable.

Certain natural leather finishes can be permanently stained or turn a different color if exposed to too much water or other liquids. One key rule is to clean the piece immediately, before a substance has a chance to soak in or dry onto the hide. Homeowners should not panic or look the other way when their leather furniture is spilled on or marked because they are unsure how to clean it.

Leather, because it is a natural fabric, should be maintained by washing at least twice a year. This washing should be done gently, by hand. Use a mild soap or a saddle soap. Create suds in a bowl and apply the suds to the leather surface with a soft cloth or sponge. Do not use the soapy water. Be careful to keep the cloth barely damp -- not wet. After washing, buff the leather item dry with a second soft cloth. Do not try to dry the leather item near heat, as this will cause the leather to become brittle and possibly shrink. After washing and drying the item is complete, rub a good leather conditioner into the fabric. This conditioner serves to protect the leather from spills or stains, and helps keep it soft and supple. If unsure about using a leather conditioner, the manufacturer’s directions will explain how. Clean leather by hand, gently, with the proper products, and this fabric will last for years.

Patio Furniture Covers: ( Don't Clean It Cover It)

By: LoLo5

Are you constantly cleaning your patio and outdoor furniture? I know I was, every week or two. That is until I wised up and purchased some patio covers. It's very frustrating to have to clean it every time you go to use. If you want to have a patio party for all your friends or just serve that afternoon glass of tea out on the deck or patio. You have to wash the table just to set down with family or friends for an afternoon snack.

Even worse than the dirt and bugs, and grime, that collects on your table and chairs and cushions is the damage that the sun and rain can do to your furniture. The sun can be really harsh on your chair cushion by fading and rotting the fabric. You spend a lot of money to buy that perfect patio set and you want to use it for several years.

After you spend so much money for your patio and garden furniture it just makes sense to invest a little more to buy patio furniture covers to protect your investment. If you have invested in teak or wrought iron patio furniture then you have made quite an investment as you well know. They can be very expensive and you do not want to have to replace them every few years.

You'll find that patio furniture covers are quick and easy to use. Most of these covers have zippers and will close in and fit very closely to your furniture. These covers waterproof and most have some insulation to help protect from ice and snow. Choosing the right patio furniture covers is very important. Be sure and some that are made well so they will hold up through the life of your furniture. With a good quality cover your furniture and covers should serve you well for years to come.

Five Quick Cleaning Tips For Busy Moms

Author: Jennifer M. Knox

You know how it goes....you have every intention of getting some cleaning accomplished during the day, only to find that by the time the kids are in bed, your house is no cleaner than when you woke up! How does time get away from us?

Here are five quick cleaning tips that any busy mom (or dad!) can incorporate into their day to clean their home a little bit each day.

1. Let the cleaning products do the work by pre-treating.

Instead of trying to speed up the cleaning process by quickly spraying a cleaning product and scrubbing away, spray a generous amount of cleaner onto the surface (tubs, shower walls, countertops, toilet seats) and walk away for five minutes while the cleaning product does the work. Most products work best when allowed to penetrate the stain and break down the grime and surface dirt. Take those five minutes to throw a load of laundry in the washer, change a diaper or wash some baby bottles. At the end of those five minutes, wipe the surface clean with paper towels and admire your work! You just completed two tasks in the time it takes to complete one!

2. Chunk like projects together.

As long as you have that bottle of glass cleaner and roll of paper towels in your hands, why not do all of the mirrors in the house one after the other. By not switching between cleaning products and cleaning tasks, you will actually save time because you will already have all of the necessary tools at your disposal. Switching between tasks, even in the same room, can sometimes take longer than simply completing the same task in each room in quick succession. Read More

Old Wives Tales About Table Scraps - Fact Or Fiction?

By: LoLo5

We've all heard them, from our parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles etc. Tales about how different foods and scraps from the kitchen can benefit our gardens. Some of these claims work and others don't. It's hard to know which of these "Old Wives Tales" to believe. It just takes trial and error to check them out. Here are a few that have been proven to work.

Eggshells: Eggshells are a great source of calcium which is great for your tomato plants. Without calcium they will develop blossom-end rot. All you have to do is sprinkle the crushed shells on soil around your plants.

Milk: Milk can be a great fungicide for problems like powdery mildew. This is easily detected, there will be a white powder on the leaves. A mixture of milk and water sprayed on your vegetables and fruits can work just as well as chemical sprays.

Hot Peppers: Hot peppers can be used as an insect repellent for you plants when made into a spray. The ingredient that burns you mouth when you eat it (capsaicin) is the ingredient that kills the harmful insects.

Black Pepper: Sprinkling black pepper on the soil around your plants is a great way to keep tabby cats away.

Can Releasing Earthworms and Ladybugs Improve Your Garden

By: LoLo5

Tip # 2
Do you need to buy imported Lady Beetles (ladybugs) from a store to add to your garden?
While lady beetles do consume many harmful pests such as aphids, the ones you can buy at your garden centers have been hibernating. They probably won't stay around long enough to be very beneficial to your garden. Once they wake up their natural instinct is to fly away. Most likely you will have some ladybugs (Lady beetles) visit your garden any way. One of the most helpful visitors you can have in your garden are earthworms. They perform a variety of good deeds to help your soil and your plants. They aerate the soil, digest organic matter, and produce great nutrients for the plants roots. If you have healthy soil there is no need to run to the garden center to buy some of these little guest, chances are these worms are already making themselves at home. If your soil is not so healthy try adding a little aged manure or compost to you garden and they'll come to visit on their own.

Tips For A More Bountiful Garden

By: LoLo5

It's that time! Time you're looking forward to the taste of all the wonderful vegetables from your garden. Wow I know I am! I thought I would do a series of gardening tips to help you grow a lush vegetable garden this year. You don't need a lot of chemicals, just the right information and a little elbow grease.

Tip # 1.
How Often Should You Weed Your Garden.
Weeds not only make your garden look untidy and uncared for but they also rob your vegetables of water and necessary nutrients, so be sure and pull them when you see them. This is especially important in the early stages of growth in your garden. Studies show that keeping your garden weed-free for the first four to six weeks can have a significant impact on the productivity of your plants. Preventing weeds from returning is not that difficult if you put down three to six inches of coarse mulch. A study by the Ohio State University showed that shredded newspaper suppressed the weeds and increased the yield of tomato plants.

It is always a very pleasant sight to view a well kept vegetable garden from your deck or patio.

Note From LoLo 5

Hi Fellow Decorating Friends,

I've missed my post for the last week. I haven't been near a computer. I have been working for the American Cancer Society Relay For Life. I stayed at the park, where our Relay was held, for 2 days and a night. My Line Dance group has a team in the Relay each year, which I am the captain. We run a concession stand at the Relay for one of our many fundraisers. I am a cancer survivor, so this is very important to me.

I'll leave you with my thought for today:

"Cancer is a thief. It steals from all places, from everyone involved and shows no mercy. We should all fight cancer the same way, with relentless determination."
Please get involved in your local Relay For Life. The joy you will receive working for this great cause is indescribable. Your efforts can help save lives, and families.

Thanks,

Outdoor Dining Decorating

By: Ray Inthar

Your outdoor patio may have more potential than what you see. Today there are so many options to improve the outdoor experience that it makes sense to put time and effort into decorating it. Patio umbrellas, cushions, sofas and fire pits all have the potential to make space that seems to be devoid of life now an area of fun and family get togetherness.

The outdoor dining furniture is more decorative than years ago and placing it in an area takes a little organizing and creativity. If you enjoy decorating and rearranging your indoor home then the outdoor patio is just as enjoyable. Like the indoors you don't want to put too much furniture close to each other. You need space to put your outdoor furniture. A outdoor sofa and a small table may be all you need for a small patio. Don't over decorate. Read More

Guide to Buying Living Room Furniture

Author: Amanda Somers

After you are done with the living room in fresh wallpaper and paint, and are also through with the flooring and upholstery, how do you go ahead with buying the right furniture that goes with the color and theme? Is this a common picture you often encounter? First of all, relax. You will most certainly come across a range of contemporary living room furniture that compliments your overall decor and styling. But before you go out and shop for modern sofas, recliners and trendy entertainment units as everything else, here are a couple of things you might want to consider.

The Living Room Area: Ideally, the size of your furniture must be in proportion to the size of your living room. You don’t want petite furniture for bigger spaces or something too bulky that occupies all the space. Work out on your personal taste and fit it with practical details like the room size and styling. For smaller living rooms, opt for modular and functional furniture and keep in mind that heavy upholstery can make it look all crammed. You also get furniture that can function as day sofa and be transformed into a full-fledged bed. Do not forget to fashion the space in a manner that allows open room to move comfortably. For instance, a hi-tech spread out sofa would suit larger room settings. So, measure the area and try to buy furniture with size and details in mind. Also pay attention to where exactly in the living room you want the furniture to be placed. Once you have decided, measure the area and then keep the dimensions in mind (or jot it down on paper) and keep it in mind while your selection. It is also important to take into account the space required between the wall and the furniture while measuring. Read More

Texture In The Home

Texture plays a dominate roll in the home that is often missed and overlooked. From your floors to accessories, it is important to stay mindful of the texture combination's as they are from the very fabric that are home is woven.

Every single object in your home has a texture. The fabric on your sofa may be smooth and plush while your travertine kitchen floor is cold and hard. These textures are the make up of the feeling your home exudes. Is your home warm and inviting with soft textures or minimalistic with sleek surfaces?

When designing a room, one texture is likely to dominate over all others. Most often, the predominate featured texture in a room is the largest clear area in the room – the floor. Walls, too, can play an enormous part, but are better left painted matte so to create a sophisticated, neutral backdrop for artwork, furniture and accessories.

Thus, your floor should be your starting point for the room design and is really worth spending the time and effort (but not necessarily the money) on getting it right before you rush into buying more expensive items.

Making Your Bedroom Work For You

By: LoLo5

Because of the fast paced world we live in, with our jobs, chauffeuring the kids to all of their activities, and all the dozens of other things we do each day, we spend more time in our bedroom than any other room in our house. Therefore, our bedroom should be a very calming place for us to get our much needed rest. It is very important that it be well designed and free from clutter. You should plan your room according to how it will be used, and choose your furniture carefully.

Before making any decisions about your bedroom decor, first decide what will be the most important to you in this space. Will your room be used primarily for sleeping? If this is your goal you will want to keep your design simple. Keeping your room free of distractions may result in a better nights sleep, making you feel more rested and alert the next morning. Many researchers believe that working in bed has a negative effect on our sleep patterns, due to the stress of the work on our brains. Our brain is still trying to process the information while we are trying to sleep. A television in the bedroom can also have the same negative effect on our sleep patterns. It might be a better option for you to leave the television watching to the living room, and just read a good book before falling asleep. Read More

Patio Furniture - What Type Should I Buy?

By Darren W Chow

When trying to decide which type of patio furniture you may wish to buy, you may want to think about a couple of things first. I will cover a few points of interest that you may not have given consideration to that will aide you in your decision.

Weather and climate conditions

Due to the scientific laws know as entropy, all matter will face deterioration at some point in time. Patio furniture no matter how expensive or durable will ultimately face the same fate. Although this principle can't be reversed, consumers can take measures that will prolong the deterioration process. Consider for a moment what happens to something when it is left outside in to face the elements. Some things hold up longer than others will. Indeed, patio furniture made of plastic will have a better chance of enduring the moisture of the snow and rain than a wood based model. Wood should be waterproofed in a finished that will repel water and not soak into the wood. Although these models may go for more money, in the long run it stands the best chance of holding up over time. Read More.

Rearrange Your Space and Revamp Your Mood

Decorating Tips
By: LoLo5

Liven things up. A easy and fun way to revive a tired space is by moving around your furniture and decor. It's also a great way to finally get around to cleaning hidden and neglected areas.

Get a plan. Determine what you want the focal point of the room to be, such as the TV or the fireplace. Be sure and keep your primary seating, like your couch, facing your focal point. Get creative with your smaller chairs, tables, and accent pieces. Try placing them in several different positions until you find the perfect place.

Spiff it up and make it shine. Now that you've got your room rearranged clean it up and make it shine. Clean floors, walls, and baseboards. You'll be so proud of your space you can't help but be in a good mood.

Always remember. Put a little attitude in it.

June Decorating Tips For Your Flower Garden

By: LoLo5

What could be more beautiful than looking out from your deck or patio onto a flower garden that is is in full bloom. Here are some tips to keep your garden looking great for years to come.

FEED THEM RIGHT: The use of a high nitrogen fertilizer, the kind formulated for your lawns, encourages plants to create foliage, not flowers. For best results you should always use a bloom-boosting formula made specially for flower gardens.

FACE THE SUN: Most of your annual and perennial flowers will need full sun for at least 6 hours a day to produce an abundance of flowers. Keep this in mind when planting
.
GIVE THEM LOTS OF SPACE: Most of your perennial flowers will need to be dug up and divided every four or five years in order to continue blooming at their best.

DEADHEAD OFTEN: Snip of faded flowers regularly to encourage plants to rebloom and keep your garden looking well-groomed.

Be sure to pinch back your chrysanthemums (always remove a few inches of the growing tips and buds) before the end of June. This will ensure that the plants will remain full and compact.
