Finding Inspiration For The Bedrooms In Your Home

Looking for inspiration for the bedrooms in your house? Stop scratching your head and expecting amazing ideas to appear by magic. Go looking for inspiration instead! This guide tells you where to find it for the three categories of bedrooms you might have; adults, kids and guest.

For the adults bedrooms

“Better to see something once that hear about it a thousand times,” goes the saying. This is true for many things, and it’s true for finding home inspiration. So, pack your backs and go and see new ideas in person. Travelling abroad will open you up to a whole new world of design and interior possibilities. Stay in a Scandinavian hotel to see how they do pared-back chic, clean lines and muted colours. Or go to Morocco and Tunisia, where key colours like red, orange and brown create a rustic, warm tone. While you’re in these places you can even pick up items to take home with you, like rugs and lanterns. See some stunning Moroccan bedroom designs via this link.

For the kids bedroom

When it comes to children’s bedrooms, the internet is the place to go! There are so many creative parents and designers all around the world. Via the web you can see all of the ideas together in one place. Pinterest is great for collecting together different ideas. You can make boards that you ‘pin’ different images on. If you’re resigning your kid’s room, do this with a number of viable options. That way, when they look at your board and choose their favourite, you already know you can follow through with it! Interior design magazines and blogs are other great places to look. And how about when it comes to picking the furniture? Bunk beds are an ideal option for kids room. Take a look at these cute bunk beds for girls from Cuckooland, for example.They’re more fun than standard beds, and save on floor space too.

For the guest bedroom

When it comes to finding inspiration for your guest rooms, look to how Bed and Breakfasts do it. Firstly, consider the fact that as a number of different people will be staying in the room, it will need to have versatility. Some of us like to be cool at night; for those people, have a bottom sheet on the bed. However, some of us like to get warm and cosy. For those people, keep an extra blanket at the bottom of the bed, or in the wardrobe. You could add a reading nook or table so they can spend more time in there. Then think about items that your guests might not have with them, or have forgotten. Guesthouses often make up little baskets with these items inside. You could do the same. Add towels, spare toothbrushes and cotton pads. If you let guests or lodgers use the room regularly, it might be useful to write and print a little guide. Put things like the WIFI password and how to open windows with complicated locks. This will save them from having to come and find you to ask after lights-out.

How To Go About Choosing Your Wedding Rings

So you’ve set a date, and you’re getting married – how exciting! If you plan it right, your wedding day will be one of the best and most memorable days of your life. There’s a lot to do when it comes to planning a wedding, from picking your venue to choosing the perfect bridesmaid’s dresses. With so much to do, it’s easy to forget the important things, like choosing the perfect wedding bands.

When it comes to picking your wedding rings and jewellery, it’s easy to think that it’s not something that will take long to do. However, if you want to pick bands that look stylish, will last for years and are suitable for both of you, you need to take your time selecting them. There’s a lot more to picking wedding bands than meets the eye and it’s important to realize that.

To help you select the perfect bands for you and your significant other, I’ve put together a few tips. These are all things that I found helpful when selecting my own wedding bands. Take these tips on board and I guarantee you, you’ll find the perfect rings.

Set a budget

Unless you want an argument at the ring store, it’s a good idea to set a budget before you start ring shopping. Sit down and discuss how much of your wedding budget you think it would be wise to spend on the rings. Even if your budget is small, don’t panic – there are lovely rings for every price range. There is no point arguing with your partner over how much you can spend; it ’s best to agree on an amount and stick to it.

Talk about what you want

Once you’ve got your budget sorted, the next step is to talk with your partner about what you want your wedding bands to be like. Is there a certain metal you like? Do you have a design style in mind? Do you want your band to match your engagement ring? These are all things that you need to think about and discuss with your partner. It’s important that you both share what styles of rings you want so that you have an idea of the best styles to look for. Have a browse online at a range of rings, like these Tacori wedding ring designs, to get an idea of what styles you both like. Oh and don’t forget to decide whether you want an engraving inside.

If you don’t agree, compromise

If you and your beau can’t agree on an aspect of the wedding bands, don’t fight, agree to compromise. While both your rings are meant to be the same, they don’t have to be. The truth is that different people have different tastes, and that’s okay. If you both want rings that are the same but have different tastes, find a way to combine them. For instance, if he loves white gold but you love yellow gold, perhaps you could find a ring design that combines the two? Don’t argue, compromise.

There you have it, everything that you need to know about selecting your wedding rings.

Your Makeup

There is no written rule that you have to have a professional makeup artist to do your wedding day makeup. If you’re quite happy to do your own makeup then why not just do it yourself. This will save you travel expenses to and from a salon and gets rid of the makeup artist’s fee from your budget. It will also stop you getting stressed out about being ready on time as it’s up to you to do it. So wash all of your makeup brushes and invest in some new makeup products. This will be far cheaper than paying a makeup artist and makes the process that extra bit special. Always do a few practise runs in the weeks leading up to your wedding and take pictures of yourself to see what works best. Look online for wedding makeup inspiration and try out a few styles before you commit.

Your Wedding Music

While DJ’s and live bands are popular choices for weddings, they can also put a strain on your budget. As a fantastic alternative, you can create your own wedding playlist.

You can also ask your guests to send you some song recommendations they would like to hear at your reception. This brings a far more personal touch to your big day without having to spend a lot of money to achieve it. Just make sure that your venue has a strong internet connection if you want to create your playlist online.

Creative Ways to Incorporate Your Pets into Your Wedding

 photo 3396435821_8a25fd61de_z_zpswgbf5kkq.jpgPhoto from rodricg

Put Them on Your Invites

One way you can get your pets into your wedding is by featuring them on your wedding stationery. You can have their image or their name on your invites to include them in your day from the beginning. Look at the personalised wedding invitations from Paper Themes to see how you could have their names included. Or you could do DIY invites with a photo or an artistic interpretation of your furry friend. You can do the same with your other stationery too, from place cards at the reception to programs. Try using a cut drawing or motif that you can put on lots of different things.

Get Them in Your Decorations

As well as your stationery, you could also use your pets in your decorations and other details. Maybe you could have tablecloths with your cat on them or paper mobiles with images of your birds. Get creative with all the ways you could use your pet’s image or name in your wedding. Maybe your welcome sign as everyone arrives at the reception could say “Thank you from John, Jane and Fluffy”. Perhaps you could put a photo of your pet in the flower arrangements. Or you could include them in a montage of pictures of the happy couple. It doesn’t have to be an exact likeness of your pet. Maybe you’re found an ink stamp in the shape of a rabbit that you love.

Have Them Attend

In some cases, you might be able to have your pet come to the wedding. Of course, to do this, they’re going to have to be well behaved. It’s most likely that you’ll bring your dog. However, you might also consider another pet you can put on a leash. For example, you might be able to have your cat, rabbit or ferret there. Some couples choose to get married on a farm and have larger animals attend too, such as horses. You could have them simply be present, or you might give them a role in the ceremony. Ring bearer is a popular choice for dogs. Before you invite your pet to the wedding, think about whether it’s something they can handle.

Getting Ready in the Morning

If you don’t think your pet could stand the hustle and bustle of the wedding, they can still be part of the day. You might like to have them keep you company in the morning as you get ready. Of course, there could be an argument over who gets to have them around as you prepare for the day! This option is easiest when you’re planning to get ready at home. However, if you’re in a hotel, they might allow pets. Even if they don’t usually, asking nicely could get you far. Have photos taken as you get ready, and you can make sure your beloved pal is in your wedding memories. Just watch out for fur, which you definitely don’t want on your dress. Have a lint roller or clothes brush on hand, just in case.

Take Some Photos

Putting your pets in your photos is another great way to get them in your wedding. You might not want to have them around for the whole day, but having someone bring them for photos is an alternative. You could have them there to take formal photos after the ceremony or maybe for something more casual. Your dog might need a runaround part way through the day anyway, so it’s a good excuse to give them some exercise. Have some fun photos taken of an informal moment playing fetch. It could help you let go of some tension too!

Your pet can become a part of your big day in lots of different ways. If it’s not possible for them to come, you can still get them into the wedding in another way.

Engaged? It’s Time to Start Planning Your Big Day!

It’s a wonderful month for romance. We’ve just had the most romantic day of the year, St Valentine’s. What an excellent time to spoil the one you love! Of course, you should be doing that all year round, but sometimes, it is handy to be given that little reminder. Romance comes in do many forms. Some lovers may stick to the traditional gifts like flowers and chocolates. Others try to show their love in more creative ways. It’s always nice to bear in mind the personality of the recipient when choosing gifts – it makes it even more special. A thoughtful gift is much more romantic than some flowers bought hastily at a garage!

The other reason February is so romantic in 2016 is that it is a leap year. Tradition states that the 29th of February is the day that women should take the lead and propose marriage! Back in ancient times, it was customary that a man refused the proposal, he had to compensate the lady. Whether it be jewels, cash or a gown, it was necessary to give a token of compensation.

So if you have (or plan to) get engaged this month, then you might be thinking about the wedding already. If you’re impatient, and  you don’t want to wait too long to get hitched, then what’s the next step?

The first thing is to decide where you want to get married. This is crucial to do as soon as possible. Even if you are waiting a while, it makes sense to book it as soon as possible. Ensuring that your desired date is available can be difficult, so ensure you have more than one choice. You’re less likely to be disappointed this way.

Once you have the date confirmed, you can either choose to send out Save The Date cards if it’s some time off yet. If your nuptials are more imminent than it makes sense to go straight to the invitations! Get your invitations out as quickly as possible, especially if your wedding is within the next three months. This gives guests more time to make sure they can make it to your big day!

Wedding invitations should reflect the personalities of the couple. There are superstitions in some countries and cultures about wedding invitations. Chinese wedding invitation designs are laden with tradition and meaning and are meant to bring luck. The traditional style in the UK is for the invited to be sent from the parents of the bride. But as more and more families fragment, it is common these days for people to send the invites on their behalf.

Deciding who to invite to your wedding can be fraught with difficulties. Those with a large friendship group may find it difficult to choose who to ask without offending others if you have a limit on the number of guests. And as for relatives, and step-relatives, it can be a minefield!

Now you’ve got the basics covered; it’s time to get on with planning your big day! This is where the fun begins!
