Concrete Lamps And Their Unexpected Warming Effect On Our Homes

We’ve established that wood pendant lamps make spaces feel warm, cozy and inviting so, using that logic, should concrete lamps make a space feel cold and austere? Not at all. Even though concrete is a rough and cool material, it doesn’t really have the expect effect on the interior décor of a room. In fact, it can make a space feel quite homey and enjoyable.

Concrete Lamps In Our Homes

They look like they’re made of paper but they’re actually cast in concrete. These lamps and pendants are designed by Miriam Aust and Sebastian Amelung and they have paper-like creases and folds which give them a really authentic look. They’re really fun and they make great gifts and home accessories.

Cool and Modern DIY Concrete Projects

Concrete is, believe it or not, a very versatile material. It’s not used just in big projects and buildings but also for smaller, DIY projects.

Selecting The Right Flower Vase For Your Décor

Flower vases have been around since we first started to bring in plants and flowers to decorate our homes. They come in so many different forms that trying to find the perfect one for your space can give you headaches. The best strategy is to have a set of criteria to help you make a decision.

DIY Bathroom Shelves To Increase Your Storage Space

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a bathroom can never have enough storage space. There are the stacks of towels and wash clothes that need a shelf. There are bottles of shampoo and bars of soap. Boxes of Q-tips spill over and bags of cotton balls are stuffed into the empty spaces. And let’s not get started on the feminine necessities for health and beauty. Every bathroom needs a good set of shelves to store all these fundamentals, but you don’t have to empty your piggy bank for them. Try your hand at one of these DIY bathroom shelves that will increase the storage space in your bathroom.

Bathroom Color Schemes You Never Knew You Wanted

Bathrooms can pose a challenge to a lover of home design – to most of us on a budget, they’re an expensive proposition to overhaul, and it can be difficult to justify a remodel if everything’s functioning. But how to decorate the room? Choosing the right bathroom color scheme can make all the difference in how much you love your bathroom…and the good news is, you CAN learn to love your bathroom again (or for the first time?).

Bathroom Color Schemes You Will Like

One way to warm up your lighter bathroom color scheme is to incorporate warm contrasting shades into the space – blue and orange are complementary colors, so this antique brass or bronzed mirror frame and firey-hued flora really bring the bathroom to life.

Modern Home With A Wood Fence

To make a fence look modern you have to think out of the box and to distance yourself from the usual designs that come to mind. For example, instead of placing the wood boards vertically try thinking horizontally. You can either create a very compact design for the fence or you can create chic patterns. If you prefer something more exotic, choose a wood that reflects that such as bamboo or some other type.

Bathroom Color Schemes

This rustic, traditional farmhouse-bathroom style looks immediately friendly and inviting, thanks to the generous use of warm, earthy tones. We appreciate the fact that variations of brick tiles are used so as to not overwhelm, and things are broken up with occasional doses of piney woods.
