 Fall Decorating Tips To Warm Your Home

When the weather begins to turn cold, take cues from fall to warm up your world. Think about the decorating styles that appeal to you and use the following tips for guidance:

·         Look to Elemental Colors:  Air, Earth, Fire and Water; nature inspires the most beautiful colors. Colors reflecting Air will make your home breathe. Earth inspired colors will ground and calm a room. Colors pulling from Water inspire playful fun and those reflecting Fire will say bold confidence.

·         Take Natures Cues:  As the air turns cool, nature gives us clues as to which colors make your home feel warm and cozy in the fall. Look around at the fall foliage and you’ll see vibrant golds, rich reds, deep chocolate browns and toasty oranges. These colors inspire life and energy as the days get darker and cooler. Look for ways to incorporate these colors and sceneries into your room décor. National Geographic Wallpaper or wall murals can help create this inviting nature setting. 

·         Go Natural:  With the increasing focus on the environment, there are abundant products available today that reflect and are good for nature. These products often incorporate earthy colors and textures; a perfect theme for fall.  Choose eco-friendly shades which are PVC-free and 100% recyclable like American Blinds® Roller Shades.  Check out the eco-friendly wallpaper made from recycled material or sourced from managed forests.

·         ‘Tis the Season:  Carve out a tall pumpkin and use it as a flower vase or use small pumpkins for candles.  A throw pillow, bowl of fresh citrus fruit or a bouquet of cut flowers are inexpensive ways to provide some color pop while welcoming your guests with the feel of nature.

·         Come Together:  Gather around the fireplace. Rearrange your furniture to set your fireplace, instead of the TV, as the focal point of the room. Footstools, ottomans, and floor pillows by the fire create an inviting, warm atmosphere that will get you through the harshest days of winter. And if you don’t want the hassle of starting and maintaining a fire, try placing tall white candles in the fireplace for a similar glow.

·         Go Vibrant:  Add a few splashes of vibrant color.  They enrich any look and keep you from feeling drab.  Deep colors also inspire confidence.  Use an area rug to add warmth and personality to any room.

·         Go Circular:  Designing a wreath is one of the easiest DIY projects you could hope for.  And this time of year there is an abundance of colorful items to choose from at your local craft store or around your home.  Get the kids involved and make it a family project.

·         Prepare for Winter:  Now is the time to prep your home. There are several easy steps you can take. Consider insulating cellular shades or lined window treatments such as thermal curtains or foam-backed draperies for older, drafty windows. Insulate your water heater with insulation wrap. Seal leaks and drafts with caulk or weather strips. Clean your furnace and change your air filter. And lastly, but certainly not least, install a programmable thermostat. This allows you to conserve energy during the day while you’re at work and at night while you sleep, but still come home or wake up to a warm, cozy home.

This fall season homeowners can add color and style even on a budget.  Enjoy the new, quick way to navigate and shop for the perfect, energy efficient window treatments from American Blinds, Wallpaper and More, at www.americanblinds.com.

Understanding dust mites and how to control them is a process. First, Dust Mites are microscopic bugs that live in your home and feed off human and pet dander (dead skin cells that are in your home). They like warm tight spaces and are typically found in furniture, beds and linens. These skin cells are pretty much everywhere.  Most of the dust in your house is actually dead skin cells. They mostly contaminate places where you spend the most time. Such as your bedroom (your bed and bed sheets), carpet, bath towels etc... So, there are many areas where Dust Mites can live and breed. These pesky bugs are not a healthy, especially for people with allergies. They can cause sneezing, runny nose, congestion and a scratchy throat. Sometimes these allergies lead to other health issues. Dust Mites also can cause wheezing for people with Asthma. So taking control of these pesky creatures is better for the overall health of you and your home.

In order to control them, a good cleaning regiment is the best way.

First, contacting a carpet cleaning company that cleans upholstery is a good step. A professional company can clean and deodorize your bed mattresses and furniture to get rid of these bugs. Also, there are carpet cleaning companies that use special solutions to remove harmful bacteria that these dust mites feed on.

Second, be sure to clean your home thoroughly (wash bed sheets, towels, clothing, etc) in hot water with bleach and dry cleaned, this will guarantee that all mites are removed. Remember that heat will kill mites (the more intense the better). Do not use anything that may cause a fire.

Finally, clean your home with some type of anti-bacterial household disinfectant to remove any food source for the dust mites. Be sure to remove all dirty air filters and replace with new ones. Having your air ducts cleaned is recommended as well. At this point, your dust mite issue should be much better if not removed. This process to remove the mites takes time and some money to do properly! Be sure to keep your carpet and furniture clean to prevent the issue from happening again. A good way to prevent dust mites is to vacuum your carpet and furniture regularly and replace your vacuum bags often!

Other tips:
Use encasings for your mattress, preferably with plastic wrappings.  Then add your covers on top of this.  Use an air purifier to help reduce dust. These steps can make a big difference in your home.
