I love finding new places to by any type of furniture. It’s nice to have choices and when it comes to modern design it’s really nice to have choices. If your looking for something that is a little different from the modern furniture your friend has you should check out www.temahome.com. There selection of modern decor is very unique and stylish.
Tema home is a company out of Portugal and is very eco friendly in fact they are members of the EU’s green dot society. The company was created in 1981 and produced furniture for some of the most well known and largest companies in the world. In 2006 the Terma Home concept of unique personal style was born and handpicked designers were found to help create that uniqueness.
One of my favorite pieces is this shelf unit called Ivy, I’m sure it is named that because it looks like ivy climbing up a wall. It can be used not only against a wall as a shelf, but as you can see from the picture it can also be used as a room divider and can create a great focal point in a room that may be without one. This shelf comes in White, wenge and chocolate colors.
Another nice piece that Tema Home has in this modern Sono Queen bed. It’s simple and elegant and is very useful. It is only available in the wenge color but does have matching dressers and nightstands. This is the perfect bed for anyone who is into simple modern design. It has such clean lines and really works well in a modern style home.
Tema home has it’s heart in the right place when it comes to green design and is now looking at the US market. They are not cheep but if you are looking to splurge on style and have a unique look in your home, they are the company to go to.
I remember hearing the commercials for Empire carpet a few years ago and my little brother thought they were fun and repeated the number all of the time. Because of the catchy way they get consumers attention I know a few people who have used them for their carpet installation and were very happy with the results. The company has been around for over 45 years, they are based in Northlake Illinois but today are in over 50 metropolitan areas including some places in Canada. In 2007 they were named the #1 specialty flooring retailer and were in the nations top 200 brand names, beating out well known names like office max, hallmark and H&R Block.
A fun feature of this company is the Empire Man. This live action character was introduced in 1977 but eventually was turned into the animated character you see today. It is now seen internationally and even is now a bobble head doll. Usually this character appears about the same time as the Famous jingle sounds. The “Eight-hundred five eight eight, two three-hundred, Em-pire!” is the one that caught the ears of many people in my area and I’m sure helped them with sales.
If you have seen the commercials for them, like the one above, you may think they only sell carpet, well they actually sell much more then that. They also have Hardwood Flooring including many types of specialty hardwood floors, ceramic tile, and they even have window treatments and bath and shower liners. Really they have almost everything you need for a good home improvement project. Empire Today is also known for their in home calls, they offer free in home estimates and even bring samples to you. They offer next day instillation for any in stock carpet and so far they have delivered everyone that I have talked to has gotten their carpet installed the next day and very quickly. Overall they have been very happy with the quality of their carpet.
This is a great company to look at for your flooring and other home improvement needs. They are very helpful and have great deals all the time. Right now they have a 60% off selected styles event. How long this is available depends on the product you are looking at so make sure to check out the site carefully.
Empire Today is a wonderful company and one that I would recommend to people I know, future clients I may have and anyone else who is looking for flooring. They do care about their customers and the quality of their product. A great trait for any company to have.
Do you want to get a home improvement loan, but don’t know where to start? Well there are many different types of loans you can get for your home improvement needs and many banks will talk you though them and help you decide what is right for you. If your like me though you like to do some research and maybe even apply online.
The types of home improvement loans you can get are a refinancing, where you take equity out of your home. A Secured home loan and an unsecured home improvement loan. An unsecured loan is one where you don’t need a down payment. A website that has some great information is afsloansonline.com. They have unsecured loans and even offer a free pre approval in case you are just wondering if you can get a home improvement loan, but are not ready for it. They also allow a stated income, that means no documentation, this helps people like me who are self employed.
What I recommend you do if your looking for any type of loan is to do the research and know what you are getting into and the legal side of it. Go with a bank or company you can trust or at least research them a little. Make sure you do everything you can to make your loan process simple and easy for you.
I love finding a business that will give you style at a good price. Upside Living is one of these business. They have an amazing selection of home goods at great prices. They carry everything from throw pillows to Italian pottery.
Since it’s almost summer I thought I would concentrate more on their outdoor selection. They have some great deals on fire pits that look amazing and can go anywhere. I’m big on outdoor things being movable as I have moved around a lot. They also have some great looking Tiki torches that don’t look like your at a cheep outdoor party, these torches are made of copper and burn from 8-48 hours depending on the size you get.
They also carry wind chimes, this is always a great thing to have on had as it’s good for the health of your home. Wind chimes are used a lot in fung shui and add a nice atmosphere to your home. They have a small selection, but they look great and are sure to make wonderful music in the wind.
While checking out the shopping section of my Get paid to sites I found an interesting company that sells some great gadgets for your home. The company is called Smart Home and they have everything you could ever need to make your home secure, green and fun to be in.
I really like their energy saving section they have solar lights and remote control window coverings. I think though what I like the most is the power monitoring products. You can use these products to find out how much electricity you are using in areas of your home and cut back in those areas. I know my computer probably uses the most in my home as it’s on all day and a good amount of the night too. but I do work and homework so I really can’t cut back on that. But even right now as I’m typing this I have all of the lights in my room on. I think I need to turn those off!
If your looking to save money on more decorative items Smart Home has those too! I love the real wax candles that are actually lights inside of real wax. These are great for dorms or apartments where you really worry about setting something on fire. A more useful form of lighting would be there power out night light, it has rechargeable batteries that will power the night light if the electricity fails. Very helpful when you can’t find that flashlight.
I’m sure you will find something you like here. I’m still looking through the LED lights to find one for some lamps and ceiling fixtures I have. They just don’t sell these things near me so now that I have found a place to buy them I’m going to look into it.
