We visited a friend’s newly constructed condo in Mandaluyong last week and what can I say? I was in awe because the couple went all out designing their two room condo. Aside from the four LCD TVs they have, its the Window Coverings I really loved. They invested on Hunter Douglas, darling! They only had five windows you see but they spent over a hundred thousand for the shades. Well, I could say pretty expensive really but worth it as cleaning is a breeze. And the fact that the rooms really looked so classy, that is more than enough reason, don’t you think? The husband thinks otherwise though. He said, he’ll gladly settle with Blinds as he won’t spend that much for window shades even if they were like the Bali Shades he saw in a hotel room while vacationing abroad which he really liked.

Anyway, I got so curious and searched for Hunter Douglas online which led me to BlindSaver.com, a the leading internet window covering dealers that sells the top brands of blinds and shades. Oh, I must say, I shouldn’t have had checked the site as I saw how even more beautiful and how I got so many color choices and fabric choices when it comes to window coverings! Now, I am so tempted to change our roman shades. Darn, if only I have the budget for it. Unfortunately, I don’t so I have to content myself with what we have. I hope my fascination with these new window coverings fade soon or I’ll go crazy.

Are you tired of your old bedroom furniture and wants to get new one to spice up your boring room? There’s this site that a friend highly recommends that offers Contemporary Bedroom Furniture at discounted prices. Apparently, she has stumbled upon the site a couple of months back when she was looking for furnitures to fill up her newly constructed home. She told me of how the pieces in this site are to die for and how each exudes class. I got really interested even if I didn’t have any plans of purchasing Bedroom Furniture any time soon so I checked the site. She was right.

The pieces at EroomService, a designer modern furniture supplier are really top of the line. The Modern Bedroom Furniture are all from top Italian and European designers so one will never go wrong. The designs they carry are also exclusive and quality is superb so the next time you consider changing your Bedroom Furniture, point over your browsers to Eroomservice and you’ll sulrey be delighted you did.

We need a new set of Dining Room Chairs. Our old one had been battered you see since we have a very active three year old in the house. Two of the chairs have pen marks all over while another two has loose stitches. Okay, the husband thinks my reasons for getting a new set of Dining Room Chairs are pathetic but the thing is, I badly need them replaced as I have grown tired of having them honestly speaking. LOL! I’m happy I was able to convince the husband.

Since last night, I have been searching the web for really nice Dining Room Chair replacement and I came across a very nice site for my Dining Room Chairs needs – www.spacify.com. They have modern contemporary furnitures perfect for our modern inspired house. I also found the perfect Dining Room Chairs in this site. Here are they.

I’ll show them to the husband when he comes home later so we can order the soonest possible time. The site has got really nice Dining Room Furniture too but I wonder if the husband will agree to get anything. Maybe next time.

As I have been researching about the pros and cons of having a floor carpet installed at home, I came across Empire Today, a leading provider of installed Home Furnishings and Home Improvements for more than 45 years now. They provide each home with carpet, hardwood flooring, laminate flooring, ceramic flooring, window treatments and bath and shower liners.

You see, with a coming baby, I have been contemplating on having carpeted floor for our rooms as I believe having such is safer for small babies.  Falling accidents can happen anytime and I want to be prepared. For my first born, we had rubber mats installed but they didn’t last long and they were also a pain to clean.  However, some say that carpeted floor is bad for asthma and although we have no history of asthma so far, I wouldn’t want to neglect such scenario so I am reading up on how carpets are and are not good. And then I came across Empire Today.

Founded in 1959, Empire Today, from a a small family-owned Chicago business is now one of North America’s leading providers of installed Home Furnishings and Home Improvements due to overwhelming number of satisfied customers throughout the years. Aside from the great service they can offer, they also offer next day installation, warehouse-direct prices, and world-class customer care to boot. Even their logo which has the Empire Man on it has become a a cultural icon since 1977. Empire Today has also got the coolest jingle – “800-588-two-three-hundred, Empire Today” have garnered raves from Late Night with Conan O’Brien (NBC), The Ellen DeGeneres Show (syndicated), Extreme Makeover (ABC), Curb Appeal (HGTV), Clean House (Style), and Designed to Sell (HGTV). Thsi just shows how overwhelming the company has grown and developed through the years.

Today, you can see Empire Today Commericals at youtube. And to this very day too, they still provide the world class customer service they were known for ever since. They stay committed and true to providing customer satisfaction. You can read such testimonials and Empire Today Bath Stories if you want proof for yourself.

After reading what Empire Today has to offer, I feel convinced to have carpets installed soon. I know I’m in good hands that’s why because Empire Today seems to be the best choice. I’m sure I won’t have problems dealing with them.

Below is Sophia’s room finally equipped with a 32inch Panasonic LCD TV but sans a home theater system as we felt that she need not have one. After all, she’s just a three year old kid anyway. Agree?

Here’s her cabinet of toys and books with a built in study table.

Her little aquarium with Nemo and the Dad.

Her Dora dolls and some favored stuffed toys she personally picked from her playroom here.

Her bed.

Her dresser and full body mirror.

I have never been in my best mood to decorate our house, well, our bedroom specifically, than now. Jon had just mounted the 42 inch plasma TV on the wall last week and installed the home theater with matching blue ray dvd player yesterday. Now, all electronic stuff we need are provided for so next on my list is purchase furnishings and decor for our masters bedroom.

Our bed is still good and I have no plans of replacing it, ever. But the mattress has to go. I need a new mattress. This time, I am willing to invest in a good quality mattress that can help me have that good night sleep all the time. I am hoping to find a mattress buying guide over the net so I can familiarize myself with the different kinds of mattresses available for me and which one I need that best fits my needs.

Then, I also need to get Bed Pillows or those Therapeutic Pillows that are very popular these days. I am sure they are worth the price. And since I am pregnant, I might as well get myself a pregnancy pillow to ease the discomfort my growing tummy brings. After all, we can never have too much pillows, can we? If you are like me, I need to have atleast 3 pillows with me when I sleep. Lastly, lets shop for bed linens! We can never have enough of these too, right? I always stay on the safe side though, I make it a point to get light colored linens if not white like this gorgeous Egyptian Cotton Italian Bed Linens I found. Oh, I can’t wait! Our bedroom will look and feel like heaven soon!

We have a very modern house. Since my husband and I had it built while we were in our early twenties, it couldn’t be any more modern and hip as it is. Blame it on our very young and fresh ideas, I guess. People who come visit us would never fail to notice this. You won’t even probably guess that we have a three year old in the house and another one coming when you look at our house. It’s quite masculine as some would put it as we used a lot of stainless steel like on the stair railings, balcony railings and kitchen appliances but we like it this way and we are very happy with it. You’ll see that our bathrooms are stuffed with stainless steel too from Blomus Stainless Steel Wall Hook, Blomus Stainless Steel Soap Dispenser and Blomus Stainless Steel Toilet Paper Holder. Right now, I am planning to get more stainless stuff as I have personally proven their durability such as a couple of Blomus Stainless Steel Vases to put around the house and some Blomus Stainless Steel Picture Frames.

Last night, I have discovered The Stainless Steel Store over the net while I was surfing so looks like our stainless steel collection will grow each day. They have got really nice stuff at affordable prices too. I bet I won’t be able to contain myself and order really soon.
