I am very glad that i found an in-progress home redesign. The author shared on his blog Velvet&Liene. This is too good to have it passed out.

All wall and draperies are in white. Instead of b buying a whole bedroom set, the author bought individual pieces separately. The custom bed is from Plantation and Gallbraith and Paul pillows are added. The glass night stand is from Aiden Gary while the turquoise lamps are from Grace Home. Wow, i can imagine how much time and thoughts are put into this deco.

A sofa is also decorated in white with a Paoul Textile pillow on it. A silk rug is selected to match all of the fabrics in the client’s bedroom.

Bedroom redecoration could be very expensive and it can take a lot time to do it right. Redecoration can be an easy task if you change the appearance of the room by adding or subtracting from what is already there. The easiest thing to do probably is to add a rug for your bedroom. Rugs will give your bedroom a focal point by adding another level of tasting to your bedroom. Depending on the different styles chosen, you could give your bedroom many different looks and styles.

However, rugs could gradually wear as they are walked on, therefore, you should lesson the problem by turning or rotating your rugs from time to time. Don’t forget to read the innstructions to see if they are machine washable. If it does, it will save you a lot of time on cleaning.

When you buy furniture, put storage furniture in your buying list.  I am not saying buying all of the things that is “storage” in nature but at least adding one or two pieces in your list to save you more space. Furniture with “storage” in nature include things like “storage platform beds, Armoires, Jewelry Armoires and entertainment centers.

Owning storage furniture can help you get your room orginazed. For example, if you have very tight space in your bedroom, then the best thing to do other than buying a smaller bed is to buy a storage bed. Then you can put all extra stuff that you don’t need often beneath the bed (otherwise, you may be forced to throw away these things).

Another great example is this  navy blue armoire. It is made from industrial strength powder coatd squire tube, bar stock, and sheet steel. It has a removable hanger rod and adjustable shelf. Not only it is a great decorating piece for your room, but it also functions great as a storage piece.

Buying furniture for an adult and for kids is completely different. If you follow the steps for buying furniture for the whole family, the kids may ends up detasting the furniture. Children are generally fickle and naughty and they all have their own unique personality. Some children may like superheros from the movie while some others are a big fan of sports. So first find out the hobby of your kids and then buy the theme of the kids furniture that matches the personality of your kids. If your kids like sports such as basketball or soccer, you can buy a leather basketball chair or leather football chair.

The next thing you need to think about is durability. Kids like to play tough and therefore it is always a good idea to buy sturdy furniture for the kid. For example, comparing to other types of bed, bunk bed would suite kids the most because they are meant to hold up to years.

You certainly do not want the furniture to look dull especially for your kids.There are manyimaginative furniture styles, such as beds shaped like cards or other things.

The last but not the least, do not forget about safety. Ask local sales person if  furniture meet certain safety standards. Pay attention to potential harzards.

At a first glance, this sofa is telling me, “I have aseating capacity for 3 people.” The Fergana collection displays the results of a careful study of textiles, which is a combination of Uzbekistan and European industrial-manufacturing techniques.  The frame is made of wood. Based on the Uzbekistan culture, this sofa is not supposed to be placed against a wall. If you can buy extra coushions on the seat to make the sofa more comfortable and snug.

I couldn’t live without music and so are many of other people. So I guess everyone would love this speaker. The K1 top is a high range speaker freely floating above a sound orb. These orbs guarantee a homogeneous emission of sound waves into the whole room.

I am not sure about how many people would love the idea of eating while cooking? This Inax Series is ideal if you have space issues and love something that is rare and special. A cooking stove is attached to the edge of the table so that you can dine and cook together. It does not look strange at all but make a great centerpiece in your dining room. Below the stove, there is a storage cabinet which lets you store your food and sources and therefore make your table clutter-free.

With this table, you do not need to run to the kitchen while you are eating because it is just right beside you!

One of the mistakes that most people made is that they did not do any careful planning before going out for furniture. The degree of planning also varies a lot depending on how much time you want to spend on planning and how much money you are going to spend on furniture.  Measure the spacing before you buy is the very basic step you can take for planning.

More complicated  planning, however, is better to be executed by planning tools. For example, you want to preview the color options and try different layouts. Now, IKEA is offering free planning tools for rooms like kitchen, bedroom and office, you can go to their website at IKEA.com and try it out.
