| Posted: 05 Jul 2011 07:40 AM PDT When you're trying to teach the children something, usually a very good idea would be to turn the activity into a game or into something fun. They will be more receptive and they'll pay more attention to what you're trying to teach them because they like the method. Here's a very useful item for those who are trying to teach the state capitals.
This colorful rug is not only fun because of the colors but it's also very useful in a classroom for example. There are a lot of fun educative items that can help teachers in their process of trying to model the children's minds. This rug is just one of these items and it's a very useful one. The rug is very colorful and attractive for the little ones. It has the USA state capitals presented very nicely, in different colors, to be more visible and easy to spot.

| Posted: 05 Jul 2011 04:45 AM PDT Usually when it comes to sinks there's not much to think about before purchasing one. They are usually all the same, with similar shapes and simple designs. However, for those who like diversity and who want to distinguish themselves from everyone else, there are also some other options. For example, take a look at this collection.
It's been designed by California-based company Native Trails and it's a collection of several sinks that share an unusual design. The shape is not really interesting or distinguished from all the other designs, but it's the finish that makes them stand out. When seen for the first time, the sink appears to have been covered or even made of leather, However, it's just an impression because in reality they are made of copper. Also, another interesting detail is the fact that the sink is manufactures from recycled copper, from pipes and wirings that have been melted down. It's yet another reason to choose this sink.
Besides the process of melting the copper, the rest is hand-made. It's definitely an interesting piece. Because it has that leather-like look, it has a masculine flare so it would look very nice in a bachelor's apartment. However, this doesn't mean that it can't be included in other decors as well, as long as it looks good and the owners are happy with it. |
| Posted: 05 Jul 2011 01:03 AM PDT You already found out from the title how what this building is: a wood block house, which is located in a place called Nara, in the Rising Sun Country, Japan. The house was designed by Tadashi Yoshimura Architects for a family, in a natural land form, with beautiful retaining walls made of granite, with a perfect playground for children and ship-shaped wooden blocks.
If you look at this building, it does not give you the impression of a house, at least this is the feeling it gives you from outside, but the interior is remarkably interesting. Its form and color are very nice; the wide glass window offers that essential mood that you have in a wide space. From outside, the building has a simple appearance, but the most interesting thing is the way the light is projected onto the glass facade; this happens both at day and at night, night light makes it more spectacular.
It does not look either as a common block or a common house, as it is unique in aspect and it makes you think about an official building rather than a family’ s home. When you look from outside, you feel detached, the environment seems to be a little cold, as if nobody lived there, but it is only an apparent impression that changes once you enter the building.{found on archdaily} |
| Posted: 05 Jul 2011 12:15 AM PDT One who is enough fortunate to have an attic in his home and yet top convert it to a room, he is missing the primary treasure of a real estate. An attic space room gives one the opportunity to have enough privacy and have a view of outside. Here some tips are given if one wants to turn the attic in the room.
Is attic living for you? While one should think about living in attic he should also make his mind about shifting from the main floor. Though the serenity of master bedroom in top floor may be eye soothing but climbing up stairs is a laborious process and may one may not like it. If one has small children, he may not want to be far removed from the children on another floor. While having teenagers and large family attic may be interesting.
What will it take to convert? The next step is to determine about the cost factor and how much work and renovation is required for this conversion. In old houses the ventilation and conditioning pipes are run through attic. One should take this step of converting this attic in to master bedroom only when the cost is minimal and beneficial in comparison with added space and usage. Before setting for the change one should contact the home contractor of any home improvement professional for getting the expected expenditure for this purpose. It should be remembered that return on investment (ROI) can bring more money than invested initially.
Bring in natural light: Natural light should be given main priority as it is on the top of th roof and has better opportunity for exposure to the sun. If less opportunity for the sun exposure exists in the room then window in wall or any solar tubes may be installed for having light in the attic. Along with the light the outside view should also be given important, as the thirst for outside views always hunt human being. Take full advantage of the height and the views, you are at the top of the world, literally! Attics can be a hidden treasure for any home, they can be a source of enjoyment and as attics are quite calm and it can be felt like being isolated and having a world of one's own.{pictures from decorati} |
| Posted: 04 Jul 2011 10:56 PM PDT This house is truly a house out of the ordinary as it features a unique barn style decoration. It might surprise you but this house was originally a mill. The mill was completely renovated into a beautiful barn style house while respecting the original materials and structures employed in the primary structure.
The public areas of the house such as the living room, kitchen and the dining area has been distinctly decorated in soft color tones such as white to create a warm and relaxing environment. The bedroom features a true dramatic statement as it boasts prime stone walls and jute mat covering as the flooring.
This unique barn style decoration has been accentuated with classic vintage style furniture pieces. Carved wooden chairs with white leather seats, unpolished wooden dining table, wooden doors featuring glass panes and curved designs, huge dressers and brass bathtub are few examples of vintage style furniture pieces introduced in the house.
Another significant portion of the house which has been designed significantly is the outdoor porch area. White barn chairs, classic lamps and small green potted plants have been introduced to design the area around the rectangular shape small open swimming pool.{found on NuevoEstilo} |
| Gorgeous Island Apartment in Moscow by Geometrix Design Posted: 04 Jul 2011 09:26 PM PDT Many years ago I made an obsession for black color. All my clothes were dominated by this color although I do not remember to have a particular reason for this choice. I guess I was influenced by my high- school mate who seemed to like this color too or there were those waves of the adolescence when you tend to make an obsession for a particular thing until it appears something else new.
Meanwhile all these things have changed and now I have different tastes and other options. Still black remains an elegant color which will always be appreciated by everyone.
The same thing happened with this gorgeous Island Apartment in Moscow designed by Geometrix Design. The elegance and beauty of black dominates all the spaces.This 1,400 square foot apartment which includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen was designed beautifully and the modern technical details and the refined pieces of furniture made of it a wonderful relaxing place where you may spend your days.
The TV panel with round embedded light is the attraction of one of the bedrooms which looks like a spatial gate that seems to send you to unknown territories.In the kitchen you will be amazed by "jack", a transformer table which has a remote control that will help you to get your dining table or the bar counter.
There are also used contrasts like the white and wood walls which contrast the black interior.The beautiful ceiling built-in lamps which change the interior color according to your mood preferences and the comfortable furniture will make you relax and enjoy every minute spent here. |
| Beautiful Coastal Inspired DIY Table Décor Posted: 04 Jul 2011 07:07 PM PDT Sea has always seemed to attract us as a magnet. Most of us choose a resort at the shore of the sea as tourist destination for our vacation and when we get close to the resort and we see the huge wideness of blue water we feel like we have butterflies in our stomach as if we are in love. Actually for some of us sea is considered a second love. It is something that attracts us to it every year as if it is the call of the sea. And how could you resist not falling in love with it when you sit at its shore, when you see the seagulls that fly above it and hear the noise made by the waves that break themselves at their touch with the shore? How many of you did not sit on the sand of the beach very early in the morning, holding your girlfriend or boyfriend in the arms in order to catch the sunrise?
This amazing image of the sunrise at the seaside can never be forgotten.If we want at least remind our memories about sea each day we can build this beautiful coastal inspired table décor using seashells of different shapes and sizes. We may also need a damp cloth, sandpaper and a glue gun. The table must be clean so we will use the damp cloth to clean it from dust. Then we will arrange the seashells on the floor to see where we want to glue them and we will use sandpaper to scuff up the table where we want to glue the seashells. In the end we glue them on the table and everything is ready. The image of these seashells will alleviate the sea miss and the days that have remained until the next meeting with it will pass more quickly.{found on allyou} |

Once you see the entire picture of it, you feel the need to take your time and analyze the details, as they are the key-elements of this house.The first thing that attracts your view is color; the combination of mid-century, pop art and the luxurious style will constitute the elements which give that sense of humor so necessary for an artist, for a designer.

| Get the romantic mood with dark blue!! Posted: 04 Jul 2011 04:15 PM PDT It may sound like being crazy if anybody wants to paint the wall deep with deep blue colors. Many a people say that deep walls make a room a cave, but perfect sense of beauty makes the room perfect if it is painted with deep blue or royal blue color. The cave like atmosphere will be replaced by heaven like atmosphere.
Simple Colors Create a Stunning Style If the choice of color is made simple then, it would become easier for the designer to decorate the room, but if the choices are made with a palette of colors then it would become overwhelming for any person to beautify the room in perfect manner. When one color is chosen, then other two colors are pale shades of blue and another one is white. Thus by these three simple color one can make his room look really good. One can choose cool blue or light violet instead of white.
Light is Key As the dark walls absorb light, the dark walled room works well for late rising, but by every human's natural instinct everyone wants to greet sunlight whenever he wakes up. Hence the window set up must be in such a way so that every bit of natural light can enter the room. After the sun goes down the room needs for light, as the dark wall change the light dramatically one need to make light setup in such way that lack of light is never noticed. For general lighting purpose one need to use over head lights to ensure that, no corner of light suffers from lack of light. One may use table lamp or bed side light to have light while reading in bed. To draw attention to favorites drawing or wall hanging one can use accent lighting. Using two lights from two opposite sides' one can also reduce the dark shadows in dark background.
An actual advantage of having deep blue walls is in candle light, with no absorption or a little absorption the candle light in dark blue back ground creates a romantic atmosphere. The light effect is the key in every decoration purpose, if the lighting effect is made in correct manner then dark cave like room can be make a heaven like room. If one is covered with four dark walls then one can use light pink bulbs to reduce the blue absorption effect in the room.{pictures from decorati} |
