So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

How To Bring Together His Decors And Hers At Home

By Abigail Wattz

A common decorating question is how to match his things with her things. How to decorate properly with both opposite elements and how to achieve a look of balance in a home.

Couples should adjust not only to one's quirks and peeves but also to how one lives and wellhow one decorates their "territory" at home. How sad it would be to see a house with an almost visible line that separates his stuff from hers. On the right sidethe masculine! On the left sidethe feminine!

Do you see that pink fluffy (or feathery) rug that is sitting on the floor in front of the television set? That may look good in the bathroom, but you have a guy in the house now and we are sure he despises it. Instead of having this rug, you should opt for a more unisex area rug. There are many different unisex area rugs that we know you will enjoy. Just because it is not pink or doesn't have a sports emblem on it does not mean it is no good.

Painting the walls should also take into account both his and her look. Together with this, the decorations should also be paired well together. A black cabinet from the guy will look nice with white upholstered chairs from the girl.

When it comes to styles, you should not be afraid to mix them too much. Yes, we know you will need to keep a balance, but it is not going to hurt you to mix in some styles. Add in small portions of his and her accessories as you are blending in. As an example, an iron candle stand for him and a white desk for her. You should continue this balance as you are redecorating the house. Some items that work for both sexes include pictures frames, mirrors, plants, books, artwork and even clocks.

Furniture pieces don't have to correspond to his and hers exclusively. Neutral colors will do. Even a black leather couch won't have to look too masculine with bright-colored throws as accessories.
