One big thing with people I know is to buy grandfather clocks. They buy them for themselves or there parents or grandparents as gifts. I love them and think that they can really add a great feel to a room.
grandfather clocks come in so many different varieties that there is sure to be one for your home. I know I will be getting one once I have my own place and room for it. I have decided on one that has storage. There are many different curio grandfather clock styles. They range from more modern looking to very old fashioned.
You can also get a great Howard Miller grandfather clock, The contemporary design of these clocks are unbelievable. There very stylish and fun to look at. They come in many different materials, metal, wood and they even have one that is a fountain. I’m thinking I may have to buy two now. 1-800-4clocks.com is a very interesting site that I think I have fallen in love with. I love the selection and the prices are not too bad either.
Grandfather clocks no matter what the style are always stylish and really improve your home decor. They are timeless and fun, children love them and so do many adults. You can have a quite one or one that chimes every hour. They can help bring back memories or create them. Please check out this site and see if you can find one to fit your style and your home.

So you come home from a stressful day at work only to turn on the TV and hear all about the murder downtown or the celebrity going in for drug treatment or the fire that destroyed a family’s home. You turn off the TV and think, why do I have to deal with all of this.
There are ways to keep your home looking and feeling wonderful so the minute you walk into it you can relax and unwind. One of the first things I use to do when I got home from work is light a few candles in the kitchen. Candles are a great way to relax and add style to a room. One look I really liked was when a friend turned an old kitchen fireplace into a setting of candles and incense. When you walked into her kitchen you relaxed and it was really helpful to her marriage.
Another way to relax is to set a timer on your lights and have them come on before you get home, that keeps your body from going into a defense mode when walking in the door. If you set it on a dim setting it will help you relax more by making your body think it’s almost time for bed.
The last tip I have is to install a water feature. A fish tank with a waterfall filter works as does a small table fountain. Not only can this relax you but when it comes to fung shui it can help too. Place your fountain in the north area of your room and watch your career blossom

I’m really sorry I have not been able to keep up with my posting I was in the hospital and have found out I have diabetes so I’m running around doing classes and test and doctor visits, I do hope to have a new post on fung shui up soon.
Right now I’m going to talk about water, water is a soothing element and has many health benefits, it’s calms and sooths, stresses and energizes all at the same time. Have you ever gone to a lake and during the day you look out and all the sudden have energy to do anything, but once night time falls and you hear the water lapping the shore, you feel calm and peaceful.
You can have this feeling at home! invest in a small water fountain or a fish tank, Fish tanks are great because you can use them in fung shui for different things, of course they have the water element, but if you stock them with coy they can also help with increasing your wealth, just make sure the tank stays clean.
Well that’s my little tip for today, as I said I hope to have more information for you soon, I just have to get re-organized!
