Sometimes you can go on a great tropical vacation without even getting out your passport. Pick one room in your home and redecorate it in a tropical theme. You can even go green by using bamboo flooring and furniture. Use tropical prints and plants to complete the look. Yes silk plants count.

You can also switch things up and redo a room as a winter lodge complete with fireplace and warm cozy rugs and furniture. Fireplaces are now available to anyone without having to knock down a wall. Many now run on a gel that is smokeless and can even be put into apartments. Just make sure to check on what your insurance will cover.

Hopefully these two ideas will get you into a decorateing mood and hopefully you will have fun with it.

I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?
