Saving Paper in Your Office




Offices up and down Britain are desperately trying to find new ways of becoming more eco-friendly. The amount of paper consumed by businesses in the UK and the rest of the world is extortionate. This is causing mass deforestation across the globe, which is cutting the amount of oxygen being put back into our environment as well as destroying the habitats of countless endangered species. The digital age has made it possible to use far less paper than yester year and here’s how to slash the amount of paper being wasted in your business:

Reduce, reuse and recycle

A business is nothing without its staff and educating them is important in reducing the amount of paper used around the office. Changing your mindset is important, so don’t just use paper unless it is necessary, like only printing a final copy and not drafts to read through when you can do your read through on the computer screen. The next option is reusing paper as much as possible by printing on both sides or using scrap paper for note taking which both ways can make a real difference over the course of a year. Lastly, putting recycling processes in place to make sure that you are doing more to put paper back into circulation once more.

Invoice and correspond via email

Everything we do nowadays in based online and without the internet many businesses would not be able to function. This makes cutting down on paper usage far simpler as there are alternative ways to correspond with customers on a daily basis. Instead of wasting paper all communications can be done via email or phone to stop so much paper being consumed in business. This can help cement links to customers who appreciate businesses trying to become more environmentally-friendly.

Send corporate e cards

A time when a lot of paper is consumed is around the festive season as businesses send out festive greeting cards to their clients to touch base and boost relationships. Many organizations see this as a huge opportunity to reach out to current and prospective customers and will not forfeit it for that reason. A more eco-friendly way to send out festive greetings and save on paper is to transfer the Christmas mail out to email. Corporate ecards enable you to email a personalized and interactive message to your client base in seconds without using tonnes of paper.

Planning for Next Family and Church Vacation

After the nice vacation of the whole church in the coolest place in the country we all want to plan again for next year’s activities. We do this kind of vacation every two years to save enough but now we’re thinking if we can do it again next year or next summer. The weather, the fresh environment, good food and nice sharing at the park has made our vacation fulfilling that we all want to go back and do it again next December. We’re planning to have more time on bible study and word sharing as the place is so perfect for that. If we can bring some musical instruments and accessories we plan on having small fellowship service. 

Now we’re listing all musical instruments and accessories we have at the church and maybe buy some replacement for the old ones. I would love to buy some Squier Bullet Stratocasters at Musicians Friend if I have enough funds but for now we’ll buy at our present suppliers where we can get discounts also. For some of the instruments that needs little repairs only we will only send them to our technician who always fixes the instruments for us. On first Sunday of the coming year we’ll plan our church activities as early as possible to be able to save enough for all of our incoming expenses.

Family Bonding Vacation

The family is so busy with the things we used in our recent vacation in Baguio. Since I still have to go to office the kids helped DH in arranging things and the laundry as well. They still missed the cold weather in Baguio and the food that we ate there like strawberry taho, strawberry ice cream, jam, peanut brittle, lengua de gato and a lot more. For the adults we greatly missed the freshness of the fruits and vegetables which we bought in the farm. The price is so low that you would want to take bunches of the crispy vegetables home but we didn’t bring any car so we passed the thought. 

One thing that we missed up there is the guitar and piano because when we rest at night we love to hear some of the sounds from my daughter’s instruments because it serves as a lullaby to us. It’s not the beautiful alfred basic piano at Musicians Friend but it has served us for several years already. It has also been an instrument for my daughter’s learning and we love it dearly. We should have brought at least one musical instrument for our night bonding but anyway we enjoyed our vacation fully even without it.

How to Do Makeover Designs on Your Home


This time of the year we had some makeover in the house particularly in our living room where we entertain our guests and visitors. After years of having the old sofa made by my father we finally decided to replace it with another wooden furniture because the old one needs to rest already for serving us for 3 decades. We love having classic wooden living room furniture because it coordinates with our home style. We’ve chosen dark wood with a black finish to blend well with safari print cushion and our light peach walling. We then installed a golden ensemble curtains to complete the elegant theme. 

My Mom is very happy with the result and she was actually impressed and surprised as well. She didn’t know that we’re looking for new furniture in the house although she knows that our old one needs replacement badly. Installing and replacing old furniture makes or breaks your home interiors as your choice of furniture can affect your whole home ambiance greatly. Wrong choice of colors and style can make your home look like out of style while a good choice can transform your home into an elegant and stylish one. You can use some creativity if you want or if you’re not the stylish homemaker you can consult a friend or the experts to help you with doing a makeover of your home interiors. 

Choosing a good outlet store like http://austinfurnitureinc.com/ can be a good step as you’ll have additional options what will suit your house best. If you choose among quality and beautiful products it will be easier for you to decorate your home interiors and furnishings. The staff of the store will even add creative ideas on how to supply your specific requirements and maybe add some more for a better home decors. All these things will add to your own ideas and finally give you good insights on how you will apply it to your home. Just plan before you buy for better and stylish home design.

Home Flooring Options for Warm and Safe Environment


These days the weather is becoming so cold and I really wish that there’s carpet either on my office or in my home because it’s warmer when your flooring has carpet on it. Actually it’s not only warm but it’s easier on the feet for toddlers who are learning to walk and for the seniors who always think that some flooring can be too tricky for them as most can make you slip. 

When you think of installing or replacing your home flooring you should consider some handy factors in deciding what flooring to choose. Aside from considering what kind suits your home best you should also reflect on the kind of family members you have. Their specific needs should be your utmost preferences like how can they cope and live with it. 

For homes with very small kids that walks and runs to and fro they should have a room with the kind of Tigressa carpets that can support them on their busy activities. As they’re prone and susceptible to all kinds of slipping, falling, tripping and most of the times tumbling they should have a soft and warm flooring to catch them when they fall and still be in good state of health. 

Well it’s different on some homes but carpets brings about more than the needs of small kids as they’re also stylish on homes and offers wide range of textures and designs for trendy home owners. Whatever your needs are it’s always better to think and plan before you buy.

From Dressing Table to Wardrobe – Make Your Bedroom a Sleep Sanctuary


Your bedroom is your sanctuary. It’s the place you most look forward to returning to at the end of a hard day and if you live with other people, it’s the one part of your home which is all about you. Your bedroom is an image of your personality and it’s the place where you feel most at peace, so it makes sense that you should put a lot of thought into your décor. 

Whilst it should be all about you, your bedroom should also be a calming place, which means you should try to stick to pale, soothing colours and keep make sure it’s not too cluttered. If you like bright colours, it’s a good idea to allocate one part of your room for bright decorations and try to keep the rest simple. You could even try separating your bed from the rest of the room with a curtain. This will allow you to make your room as bright and crazy as you want whilst still having a relaxing area to sleep in. 

Whilst many people think that a bed is the main piece of furniture you need to think about in your bedroom, many actually find that all furnishings need to have equal thought put into them. This is because unlike a living room or kitchen for example, bedroom furniture is very noticeable. There is not a lot to distract from it and since the room is primarily for sleeping, a lot of the furnishings we put in our bedrooms are there for decoration, whilst in other rooms things can be chosen due to practicality and don’t necessarily have to blend in with the rest of the furniture. 

In actual fact, your bed could be considered the least important part of your bedroom décor because it is covered by duvets and pillows which you can choose to compliment your room. Some of the more important pieces include your wardrobe, drawers and dressing table. These pieces have nothing to cover them so they should be chosen carefully. Obviously you should choose furniture which suits your personal style, but if you’re going for a calming theme, then you could try looking at shabby chic and French style furniture, as these styles are a perfect combination of elegance, luxury and homeliness. 

A dressing table is something which you can go all out on when it comes to luxury because it’s a part of your room where beauty is the main focus. There are lots of styles ranging from simple ones to elegantly decorated ones with intricate mirror detail. It’s a particularly important part of bedroom décor because it can be used as a place to display ornaments, photos and perfume bottles, so it will be naturally eye-catching to those who see it. 

Whatever kind of décor you choose for your bedroom, it’s important to make sure there is not too much clutter or too much going on because your bedroom is a room where you need to be able to relax.
