A dreamy industrial and feminine space with a rustic flare styled by Carole Poirot for Warehouse Home. The colors blend so beautifully together, powdery pinks with soft grays against the roughness of the wall and metal details. And as Carole points out, the space works for both him and her.

The luxe living room is perfect for cosy evenings with friends, drinks and candlelight with deep blue velvet, warm copper, and a splendid rug to add that extra warm touch.

Still staying strong in the interior design trends, two-tone walls make up as a great choice in any space. Always go for a darker tone at the bottom and a lighter one up to create height. Bright kitchen furniture and soft shades of green look swell against the two-tone walls.

Bathrooms are among the most important spaces within homes, so if yours is looking a little tired and in need of some TLC, now’s the time to take action. The following simple tips should help you to breathe new life into this part of your property.

Give your bathroom suite a revamp

Baths, showers and sinks are the focal point of these rooms, so it’s important that yours look the part. Don’t worry if your bathroom suite has seen better days. You don’t have to splash out on a brand new set in order to achieve the results you’re after. By enlisting the services of a specialist buildings and contents repair company like Hometech-UK, you can ensure that your bath, shower tray and sink look as good as new. Expert technicians from these companies can eradicate chips, scratches and holes in a matter of a few hours.

Invest in innovative lighting

Another way to give your bathroom a facelift is to invest in some new lighting solutions. There are a host of products out there for you to choose from, meaning you won’t be stuck for options. To achieve a contemporary look, you can opt for recessed ceiling lights. Illuminated mirrors also make a  great addition to these spaces.

It’s worth installing a dimmer switch for your bathroom lights too. Being able to adjust your lighting means you can create the perfect ambiance whether you want a relaxing soak in the tub or an invigorating morning shower.

Add a fresh lick of paint

You might also benefit from giving your bathroom walls a fresh lick of paint. Changing the colour of your walls will transform the appearance of the space. Just make sure you select special bathroom paint that’s steam and moisture resistant.
Focus on the finishing touches
 
To complete the look of this room, focus on those all-important finishing touches. For example, you can dot a few scented candles around your bath and place a colourful plant on your window sill. Also, make sure you choose an attractive bathmat and towel set that complements your colour scheme.
 
By following these simple but effective tips, you can give your bathroom a fresh look and feel. The best thing is, you don’t have to spend a fortune to achieve stunning results. As long as you’re savvy when you’re on the lookout for products and services, you can rest assured your bathroom revamp won’t break the bank.

Stain removal tips for your home

Keeping your home clean is a constant battle. Especially if you have children and pets. And stains are a very common problem as they can difficult to shift. Spilt food and knocked-over drinks are the most common cause of nasty stains and are some of the most difficult to clean up.

So if your home has troublesome stains you’ve tried to get rid of, have a look at our stain removal tips so you know the best way to tackle them.

Getting rid of stains in your kitchen

Your kitchen sees a lot of action as it’s where you and your family spend a lot of time. And as a result it will pick up a lot of stains. Many of you will have a modern wooden kitchen with solid oak cabinets that look beautiful. But after a while, they can become stained from grease and food from regular cooking as the steam from your hot pots and pans makes the grease set hard. This can be really tough to remove.

Try this great tip from Worktop Express: one solution of hand-wash and lukewarm water is brilliant at cleaning wooden kitchen cabinets. It may turn the varnish on your wood white so test a small bit first and change the hand-wash to mild soap instead. If it doesn’t affect the varnish, go ahead and clean your wooden kitchen units with it. The stains will come off pretty easily with a bit of scrubbing.

Dealing with food and drink stains on carpets

What we eat and drink cause some of the most common stains in the home. Coffee and tea on carpets and soft furnishings present a real challenge to remove but a mix of detergent, vinegar and borax should do it. Start with cold water and add detergent. Borax is also really effective at shifting stains made by squashed fruit.

The one food and drink stain everyone wants to know how to deal with is of course red wine. The best thing for it is to dab the stain with carbonated water and then wash with detergent or soap.

Sorting out stains throughout the home

Loads of stains throughout your home can be sorted out with things you’ve got lying around. Did you know alcohol gets rid of grass stains? And lemon juice clears up small spot stains on white clothes if you put a small bit on them and leave the clothes out in the sun? Salt’s also a fantastic stain remover as it stops red wine stains spreading and is great for mildew when mixed with lemon.

Shampoo can treat stained collars on shirts and try using shaving foam as an instant stain remover on clothes or carpets. And vinegar is well-known for its stain-cleaning qualities, particularly on suede shoes and boots.

Keeping your home clean is a battle. But it’s a battle you can win. Especially against stubborn stains no matter what they’re caused by and wherever they occur thanks to our stain removal guide for every household.
