Black is Back

"Every room can use a touch of black" is so true and is something to remember when it comes to interiors.

Bright colors are taking a back seat to black.

Contemporary & Modern Glass Coffee Table

It can get frustrating trying to find the perfect coffee tables for your home or office...

The table you choose plays a very important role in centering your furnishings and makes the rooms in your home feel totally complete. And it's all about space! Perfecting the space around your table and your other home furnishings is just as important as the table you choose.

A glass coffee table is a beautiful and functional addition to any living space..If your coffee table is only going to get light use then there is nothing as classy as molded glass one.

                                           

Chesterfield Leather Sofa

Do you want to upgrade the furniture of your living room and buy a leather sofa to enhance the overall look of your room? Buying a sofa these days is a big decision as it comes in various designs and varieties.

The best reason to have a leather sofa is that you can easily clean them. They are just perfect for people who have small children in their house as they make the furniture dirty quite often. But if you have such furnishing set in your home you can easily clean them even if the children spill something on it or they jump on it and dirty it.

One of the most hip sofa styles appearing these days in all types of decor from modern to industrial to traditional is the Chesterfield. The richly detailed diamond tufted upholstery and rolled arms are it's most distinguishing features.

I recently bought a leather chesterfield for my living room and I love it. ...

ORCHIDS

Orchid flowers have a typical range of shapes and sizes and have unique fragrant, orchid can be entertaining eye on the sidelines exhausted everyday activities. Orchid plants, one of the most beautiful in the world.

I decided to finally give Orchids a try. After doing a bit of research I got two at IKEA. I'm not sure exactly what they are, one was simply labeled "Orchid" and the other didn't even have a price tag .The cashier didn't know what it was, and didn't know how to spell Orchid. So the receipt says "orchpla" !!!!!

Any advice in keeping them alive, or help in identifying them would be appreciated :)
