Dicken's Village at Night
Creative Commons License photo credit: kevindooley These little Christmas villages are precious. My mother collected these as I grew up and added to it each year. Now we have a miniature Christmas world sprawling underneath our living room tree each year. The grand kids will sit down with their hands in their chins and look at it for hours. Ok, well maybe minutes. :)

Got a backyard pool? Besides the landscape and pool design, what you need next is some cool pool furniture to really determine the look and feel of your yard. You could also get matching outdoor patio furniture or modern outdoor furniture to match if you have a separate deck. Keep in mind that you want to find something durable and weather resistant if you will be leaving it outside year round. Colors and patio lighting are also important and can help bring out the color of the plants and flowers in your the rest of your landscaping.

Don’t you just love vintage furniture? This concept pic just jumped out at me. I love it. When it comes to vintage looks, you could try a unique leather corner sofa, or vintage style bar stools for the kitchen. One thing that a lot of people love doing is refinishing an old table by stripping old paint and then adding custom varnish to match their kitchen. This is a great way to get a new table for your home without spending too much money.

Nothing like a bright orange shower curtain to get you in the mood for a little bathroom and shower remodeling. I’d love to update my bathrooms with anything from brand new Walk In Showers to steam shower units. Ahh! I’d say the money for the remodel is more than worth it. A nice, hot shower is one of the most relaxing parts of my day.

Exploring an idea

Nothing like a cozy reading lamp or a unique chandelier to help create the right lighting effect in your room. Good decorators always know that good lighting design is one of the biggest factors in the look and feel of any room. Cool garden lights or calming patio lighting can really bring your backyard to life.

Vintage console tables, TV stands, coffee tables or writing desks can be used to add a slightly vintage feel to a room without overpowering the space with an entire sofa set or main table. Playing around with smaller furniture pieces will provide you with flexibility in your overall design.

Mmmm! Just think how fun it’d be to make this stuff at home with your own ice cream machine. We used to do it all the time when I was little. We’d set up our ice cream maker on the back porch, add the ice and salt and let it go for an hour or so. Ahh there’s nothing better than homemade ice cream.

The Wind Not Talking Much Today

In a breezy backyard, windchimes are a hit. But if the air is still most of the time where you live, why not go for some colorful, sun catching windchimes – you can enjoy these ones whether it’s a windy day, or not. You could even take it a step further by adding stained glass window film to your porch windows. You’ll be all set for an entire summer of backyard parties.

A Tanning Bar- In The Shower!!

If you get one of these indoor shower slash tanning bars in your home, it’ll cost a pretty penny. Not that it wouldn’t be worth it, but you’ll likely find yourself needing to opt for cheap indoor tanning lotion to make up the difference. You’ll probably have to limit the times you buy designer clothes as well. But hey, you’ll have this thing in your house!

With decorating, lighting can make all the difference. Choosing a modern table lamp or reading lamp can turn an ordinary corner into a cozy, interesting retreat. If you like a bolder look, try a mohogany or teak table lamp. If you’re going to be hosting guests outdoors as well as indoors, you should check out some cool lanterns or garden lights for your patio area.

When it comes to home fashions, there are many things that make great decor accents. Wall Clocks are one of them. A cool clock can take a room from boring to unique – in seconds. :) A few other ways to set your home decorating apart from the other houses on your block include custom window treatments, unique interior shutters, or interesting and dramatic area rugs. The key is to pick a few stand out pieces and to make sure everything else compliments the main statement of the room.

As the weather cools, I get so sad to see fewer and fewer birds in my little backyard bird bath. Wanna know a secret? Getting a heated bird bath will give the birds a more comfy place to hang out, bringing you more hours of bird watching. While you’re at it, you can add some tasteful backyard fountains and create an amazing backyard oasis.
