Sample Book a window best friend
By: Sai
What is the purpose of a sample book?
A sample book is defined as a book that has samples in it.
But seriously, let’s break it down. The word sample: a small part or quantity intended to show what the whole is like. The word book is defined as a written or printed work consisting of pages glued or sewn together along one side and bound in covers. Thus the term sample book that it is a collection of samples sewn together and bound in a cover. That is the professional definition of a sample book.
A Relaxing Get-Away… For Less
By: Karen
It seems like these days I am going non-stop – between work, errands, and everything else I try to squeeze in. From the minute I roll out of bed I am constantly busy, and have a million things going on, so I decided it’s reasonable to redecorate my bedroom to create my own personal get away from the world. But, of course, I am on a budget. Currently, I have old furniture that I have taken with me through several moves, mismatched bedding, and my walls are the same boring white they were when I moved in. But, it seems these days, with the help of google, anything is possible.

Who Puts A Window in the Shower??
By: Karen
After moving into my new apartment, I discovered the bathroom window, was actually located in the shower. Not just in the shower, but directly across from the faucet, so if I was taking a shower, I was completely exposed to the outside world. I’m not sure why someone thought this was a good idea, the bathroom is on the first floor of what I consider to be a pretty busy street. Clearly, privacy is a huge concern! At the same time, the window is hit with water anytime anyone showers, which eliminates all possibility of using an attractive fabric shade – I can only imagine it would get moldy, and fast. In my previous apartment, I had a decorative curtain over the window that provided privacy, which I had brought with me in the intention of re-hanging it.

Shortly after moving in, I noticed quite a draft coming in. Unfortunately with all the expenses of buying a new home, I can not afford to replace the windows right now.
