However, as there are wide varieties of rugs, choosing the best design and style can be a complicated task.  To make your search short, the following are the key things you need to remember when choosing the best Surya rugs for your own home.

11/15/17 Shared from our friends at Serta Did you know that your  sleep needs  will change throughout your life? You’ll generally need less sleep as an adult than you would as a teenager, and as you get older, you’ll require even less time to catch up on your Zs. As you deal with changing life situations and a changing body, your comfort preferences will also change. Don’t be surprised if the type of mattress you liked ten years ago has changed! Find your best beds for every age.  Babies and toddlers Babies sleep on very firm surfaces, without padding or pillows. Infant mattresses are made specifically to accommodate your baby’s safety needs. Toddler mattresses, while similar to infant mattresses, offer a little softer surface and more cushioned support. Because both infant and toddler mattresses are crib-sized, a  two-sided mattress  is a great investment. You can use one side for your newborn and  transition to a toddler bed  when th...

Shared from our friends at GE Appliances . 11/8/17 Laundry mistake #1: Skipping out on stains Listen, we get it: Stains happen–and forgetting them happens too. But tossing that chocolate-dribbled shirt into the laundry basket and treating the stain days later is  a sure way to end up with a ruined piece of clothing. In fact, when it comes to stains and removing them, time and success are inversely related: The quicker you get to a stain, the more success you'll have removing it. Pre-treat spills and accidents, from grass to wine and more, as soon as possible with the right product (and follow label directions, too). Laundry mistake #2: Over-or-under-doing detergent Too many suds and your washing machine will have a harder time rinsing soap out of clothes. Too few and the dirt may escape (and stay on your clothes) through the wash cycle. Instead, dig up your appliance manual and follow its detergent recommendations–including type–to the letter. (An...

Universal Furniture Proximity Collection Shared from our friends at  Universal Furniture . As any decorator, curator, or gallery owner can tell you, there is an “art” to hanging art well. It is an element that is often overlooked. Think of your framed photographs and collected pieces of artwork as the final layer in a beautiful room, or maybe your favorite painting is the starting point for the design of a space. This favorite piece of art could be the inspiration for color, pattern, furniture angles, upholstery texture…and mood. Whether you’re working with a collection of pictures and prints or trying to find the perfect spot for that oversized canvas you finally found, here are a few tips to keep in mind before you start hammering nails into your walls. When hanging art of different sizes,  pictures should be lined up by their center lines, not the top edge of the work or frame. Check it out the next time you visit a museum or art gallery, this is the way ...
