Giving Your Home a New Look

Some of the couples I know want to have their flooring replaced because of the damage done by the recent flooding. If your flooring is not ceramic tile you will notice that after being soaked in the flood some kind of flooring shows some wear and tear. We have experienced such problem when our 10-year old vinyl flooring has suddenly showed little cracks. We dismissed it as one of the results if you have been flooded but after some time it suddenly looks so bad that we decided to change our flooring. We still chose vinyl flooring tile because it’s perfect for my kids who often run in the house. 

Some tiles can make you slip unlike vinyl which is softer and more durable than other flooring tiles. Since my Mom has a hard time walking and roaming the house it would help her a lot if we choose a more convenient floor for elders and toddlers as well. I was able to get more information from Advance Carpet One Floor & Home in St. Louis and found out that they offer suggestions and samples of their products for an idea of perfect flooring choice for your home. With that help from them you will surely have a good time choosing the right flooring for your home sweet home.

This is perfect for a family with three kids just like ours. Most modern houses nowadays have smaller spaces but it's not as if they couldn't make their small houses organized because of lack of space.  You just have to think of creative ideas on how to setup things in with style and functionality.  I have to admit I often look for sites with wonderful suggestions on making every space function not just one but more.

Maximizing space and on what you have makes up for an ideal home.  You don't have to have a grand house in order to enjoy a beautiful house.  You just need a good stylish design to achieve it.  I love this room which can have 3 kids for sleeping and some spaces for studying and playing when the beds are tucked inside the organized bed box.

Flooring that Fits Your Lifestyle and Personality


Choosing the right flooring for your home demands careful planning as to how it will reflect the character of your home. You don’t just pick the first flooring design you got interested because it’s beautiful but you must consider some factors like your lifestyle, your home design and style, your financial capability and your preferences. Our current home has hardwood flooring on the upper floors because when it was built it’s the current trend. Now it’s showing how old it is and slowly showing defects because of old age and normal wear and tear. Hardwood flooring needs proper care and maintenance to retain its quality because it’s sensitive to bugs and small insects that causes wood decays. 

Well it’s different now as the modern technology has made flooring tile more durable and high quality especially that wood floor store  do their best to give their clients elegant and beautiful selection of hardwood flooring for homes. Some people like me still love the good old wood tile in the house as it’s warm and comfortable. Now there is variety of species of wood which has gone through new technologies making them as durable as other types of flooring. 

As hardwood flooring is a good combination of elegance and practicality it’s perfect for improving your homes. But you have to remember some points when you do it like choosing a hardwood plank width that suits your room size. If your room is small you need to choose a narrower plank and it should be installed diagonally for an illusion of bigger room. Also you can be creative and add other wood colors like gray, black or white color wood. See? Designing it’s not easy as there are also many choices of style and colors for every specific brands. Just remember to design it as it fits your kind of living and somehow reflects your personality.

The Pleasure of Reading



My flair for writing stemmed up from my hobby of reading.  I'm very fond of reading since I was in secondary school and this hobby has given me so much knowledge on various fields of life and expanded my horizons of knowing things.  I value reading as a good part of education because at the time that I was in a reading hobby internet and e-books are not available yet.  Now that students can have their research through google and wikipedia and can read various e-books I still believe that manual system is still the best with regards to reading and in finding research work through encyclopedia books.

Times has changed a lot since the time that I was in school but I still recommend reading as a form of education to students where they learn things through conservative ways and not just google something for the information they need.  They still have to realize that you can be entertained and be happy in reading without so much cost.  It's affordable and very educational.
