Contagious Lifestyle

Archive for the ‘Home and Living’ Category

David and his wife decided it was time to start some renovations in their home. They moved in less than a year ago but they only had the chance to repair what needed immediate fixing before they came to live in their current house. They had to do it quick before their first born arrives come winter time.

His wife Sally found it weird that the old owner installed a Carpet on the bathroom floors. This is why the couple decided to focus their attention on the flooring of the entire house. Upon checking their options, David and Sally decided to put Shaw carpet in all the bedrooms plus the study and den. For the rest of the house, they thought Bruce hardwood floors would be nice. The couple’s contractor suggested that they check out the items offered by Carpet Express. They could have just checked what is in the store’s website but David and Sally thought it would be easier to decide on the colors and textures if they drove straight to the store.

David and Sally have successfully chosen what they wanted. Now they are just waiting for the quotation and estimate to be sent via email and they are good to go.

Even before we decided to take steps in acquiring our dream home which we fondly call the Little Mansion, searching and browsing pre-drawn home plans on the web has become an instant fascination of mine. I had collected, in my hard driv.e tons of house pictures, floor layouts and home designs that embody my ideal and dream home. I really am thankful for the web because without it, our Little Mansion now would have looked like as ordinary as a box.

One of the resources I’ve religiously visited for inspiration is the House Plans and More’s vast collection of professionally and impressively made home plan. Their team of artistic architects and experts have come up with the most outrageous home designs for every architectural style there is. Whether it be Italian, Spanish, Greek Revival, Southwestern, Shingle and a lot more—they’ve all got it here. Their site is impressive because all the house plans pertinent information such as the construction designs, finished look, and even up to garage plans details are already listed so you’ll be confident stuffing the plan on to your cart.

Not only did I get artistic ideas but I also learned so much home financing, decorating, landscaping from their wide selection of informative articles and tips on the site.

Ever since we acquired our Little Mansion, browsing home interior designing blogs has become a great interest. In fact, my feeds reader and my web browser have become filled with so much blogs, inspiration sites and shops that have to do with home decorating. Before we shopped for furniture, we scoured the web first and we got plenty of options and inspirations. Since most of these are abroad based shops and ordering online is not feasible, we just saved pictures and that’s where we drew inspiration from when we started shopping furniture.

Aside from furniture, window shopping for home ornaments and decorations like country curtains and of different types, themes and styles also busied me whenever I’m online. Now that the Christmas season is approaching, we’re excited to shop for fall and christmas themed decorations especially that we will be celebrating Christmas in our new home for the first time.

Country Village Shoppe is a recent discovery where I saw these candle sleeves and stockings. Too bad fireplaces aren’t a thing here in the Philippines, such items can be perfectly placed on such. But nevertheless, these are just great Christmas pieces too that I can adorn our living room with. There are so many other home country stuff like country quilts and country shower curtains and even handmade and artisan style wood country items that will surely elegantly embellish any one’s home. It is a must check shop by those who are planning to prettify further their homes through ornaments and embellishments.

Almost two months after we’ve moved in to our new home, I could say that we’ve adjusted pretty good and in fact, I feel like we’ve been here for quite a long time already. However, we can’t still invite friends to come over as we’re not yet done sprucing up our humble little abode. We have several installation add-ons we’re requesting the foreman to make. Unfortunately, he can’t attend to us yet because they’re still finishing the construction of the remaining unit here in our compound. A minor adjustment will have to be made on the second bedroom as we’re planning to purchase a twin bunk bed. No, we’re not infanticipating our second child yet but it’s never too early to start planning for the family’s future, right? The idea about bunk beds for kids makes me look forward to the coming years, really. Because that means a bigger and happier family living in our dear Little Mansion. For the mean time, the bunk beds wood will be intended for the guests should they’ll be staying overnight.

In the course of my search for bunk beds, I chanced upon the lovely collection of well crafted beds at Mom’s Bunk House. They have a wide selection of furniture for the bedroom as well as functional frame beds designs. Mom’s Bunk House is a family based company so they exactly know the requirements and needs of every family with regards to beds and their coordinating furniture pieces. Past reviews prove how exceptional the quality, beauty and craft of their products are.
