Bedroom is the place where we relax and sleep. Beside this, in a bedroom, some of us dress up,  get ready to out, watch TV, do some quite reading, listen to music, have some chat with family members and so on. However, a bed room should always hold a cozy relaxing  environment. To maintain this environment, we need to focus on the following facts:   

• Wall colour:  Any shades can be chosen for big bedrooms. However, while selecting paint, we have to keep in mind that light colour always make thinks look open, big and wide. Although, taste varies from person to person, for a small bedroom, avoiding dark wall paints will be an wise idea. Accent painting is very popular now a days and people do use different colours in a paint single room. In that case, for a small bedroom, a bright paint (not with a blackish tone) can be chosen for a single wall where the other walls are painted in a very light shade. 

 

• Floor colour/material: As I already mentioned, in light colour, things appear bigger and wider. Choosing colour and material for floor totally depends on budget, convenience, availability, trend  etc. However, for small bedrooms, dark floor colour should be avoided.

• Bedroom Furniture Type: For most of us, a bed is not the only furniture that we need in a bedroom. Most of us keep almost all of our personal belongings such as: clothing, accessories, jeweleries, cosmetics, etc in our bedroom. So,  depending on our need, beside having a bed we usually go for some storage for bedroom like dresser, chest, armoire and/or night table. Additionally, entertainment unit, sofa/chair, tea table, etc can be part of bedroom furniture too. However, for a small bedroom, we need to select only the furniture that we need most.      

• Style of Bedroom Furniture: Slim designs are usually preferable for a small bedroom.

• Colour of Bedroom Furniture:  While choosing colour for furniture, we need two keep two points in our mind.
•  First of all, furniture colour should be selected based on the wall colour of bedroom. For example, dark furniture will look good in a more neutral color bedroom. 
• Secondly, within a room, colour for different furniture should be consistent. If possible, try to stick with a single colour.

• Placement of Bedroom Furniture: In a big bedroom, bed can be placed at the edge or at the middle of the room without blocking the entrance and other doors. Other furniture are arranged in such manner that those can be used conveniently leaving enough free space at the middle of the room. However, in a small bedroom, a bed if placed in the middle or close to entrance will make the room very congested. So, it is preferable to place the bed at the edge of the room and  next to a wall.

• Curtain/Blinds/Shades: For small bedrooms, we will not go for curtain, blinds or shades which are lighter in color. Sheer curtains will let natural light to come in during day tie and will make the room look great. However, some bright color like orange, yellow, light green can be picked as well.

• Bedding Sets : A room looks really great, if we choose bedroom textiles (bed sheet, comforter, douvet  cover, quilts etc) with matching colour. However, If one is with too bright/dark print/pattern, the other should be plain in colour. However, for a small bedroom, if curtains and bed both are placed next to each other then light colour should be chosen for curtains. 

• Bedroom decor: Light fixtures, green plants(natural or  artificial), wall decorations (i.e. wall stickers/wall decals, wall painting, metal wall art), photo frames, decorative pillows/cushions, rugs, decorative accessories etc are some elements that add elegance to our bedrooms. However, none of us want our bedroom to look like a museum. Also, too much decoration affect the relaxing environment of a bedroom. A little presence of any sort of decor is enough to make a bedroom  very cozy.
   

Now, last but most important thing. Facts like  choosing wall colour, floor material, room size etc are not in our hand when we stay in a rented house. Still it is possible to make our rooms very cozy by:

•  properly placing the  furniture,
• carefully choosing the colour combination from textiles and curtains that we already have and
• keeping bedrooms clean and organized.

So, what to wait for? Let us fall in love with our cozy bedrooms.

6 Simple Steps to a Tidy Kitchen

A clean and nice looking  modern kitchen always adds an wow factor in our cozy home. If you have a open concept floor plan for living space, dinning area and kitchen, and kitchen remains messy and dirty, the entire house will earn some bad impression from your visitors. Even if the layout is not open, still we need to keep our kitchen clean and organized for our own convenience and satisfaction. The following is a list of factors that are very important for me to keep my kitchen clean, organized and beautiful:

An organized kitchen: If you do not have an organized kitchen, you or the person who cooks for the family needs to spend some extra time, effort and energy to find stuffs that he needs for cooking. Often it costs patience too. With an organized kitchen you can reduce the amount of time you spend in the kitchen. See more...

Dirty dish free kitchen sink: Kitchen sink should be free from dirty dishes. Instead of cleaning a single dish, we often keep building up the number of dirty dishes in the sink so that we do not need to wash dishes several times a day. But cleaning those dishes take a long time which can be reduced by cleaning those immediately after each use. Also, try to clean kitchen sink at least once a day.
However, if you have a dishwasher and if you usually use that, in that case, instead of accumulating dishes in the sink, keep putting those in dishwasher, sink will remain dish free.

Clean countertops: A kitchen does not look good if you have too many stuffs on countertops. With clean countertops, a  kitchen look nicer and bigger. Make use of kitchen cabinets and drawers and keep the countertops free from stuffs. Having a pantry is a good idea too. If you do not have any of those, try to use shelves and some nice storage boxes.  In order to get rid of dirty residue and to add some shine in your kitchen, wipe off  countertops as often as you feel like cleaning is required.

Clean backsplash: Kitchen backspash get dirty with oils spills and spices very quickly if you prepare fried food regularly. It is a good idea to wipe off backsplash immediately after frying something so that oils and spices do not build up over there. Tiled backspash is lot easier to clean. However, if yours one is not tiled, try to protect it by putting a fire resistant cover.

Clean floor: Try to broom your kitchen floor immediately after cooking. Mopping should be done at least every second day.

Clean kitchen appliances: Maintaining clean appliances (e.g. stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave oven) not too easy. Its costs a lot of time. However, by cleaning the exterior with damp cloth, paper towel/ wipes every day and cleaning the interior with a certain interval will make the kitchen look sparkly from inside and out.

However, it is very difficult for a single person to do and maintain all the work in a kitchen all by himself. On the other hand, keeping the kitchen beautiful  will become lot easier when other family members will get involved to help and share the workload.  Thus, everyone in the home will be able to share the pride for their beautiful kitchen.
