Hot Design Trend: Bamboo
Bamboo is suppose to be lucky and havieng it in your home is said to bring luck. Why not add some to your home. A great place to put this plant in in a bathroom, kitchen or bedroom. Why? Mostly because you will remember to water it better if it’s in a room you use.
Bamboo is a very clean looking plant and since they don’t require a lot of care they are really great for anyone. Another great reason to add bamboo to your living space is to bring in green, in other words plants in general give you better air quality, can make you feel better and create a space that is one with the outdoors.
Keep Your Stash Safe
Don’t you love it when someone who lives with you decides that your food is their food too? Think about when this happens, you go home ready to eat that big thick steak only to find that your roommate ate it for lunch. Or how about that expensive bottle of wine you were saving for a special occasoin that all of the sudden ends up missing?
Well there is now a solution for that problem the fridge locker. It’s a great piece of equipment that allows you to lock your food away in your own fridge. It looks just like a cage and it locks with a code that only you know so no one you don’t want to get into it can. Of course you can also use it in your pantry or to lock up non-food items. Visit www.FridgeLocker.com for more information on this great device.
I know I would love to have one. Since I live with my mom and brother I am always trying to keep my food out of my brothers hands. He eats everything! It doesn’t matter who’s name is on the container or bag. He will eat it and then pretend that nothing happened. Do you have that problem?
Generators and Their Many Uses
Even if you live in the city and hardly lose your power, having a generator is a huge must. You just never know when your going to need it. Last week our family, because of some financial and personal issues, had our power shut off for about 20 hours. We eventually got it 
turned back on, but if we had not had a generator we would have had a flooded basement. Our sump pump runs off of electricity and if that doesn’t work the water does not get out of our basement.
Now, you may not have this problem but you may need to use a generator for other things like powering outdoor lights at a wedding, birthday or other celebration. Also you may decide to work on your home and having a generator is always helpful in any home improvement project. You may have to shut off your power to do some things and being able to do that without losing your ability to run your power tools makes the project go much faster.
If you don’t want to buy one you can always find a generator hire for a cheap price and can choose your rental time depending on how long you need it. I have found that most places offer this service for good prices and it really is worth the cost to have one on hand for any project. Before we had our generator we did rent one to redesign our upstairs area. We didn’t want to deal with the power at all so we plugged in a generator, turned the power off and got everything done in almost half the time it would have taken us if we had not had a generator.

Save Money, Buy A Toster Oven
Do you live alone or are there only 2 people in your household? If you answered yes you may want to check into buying a toaster oven because you could save yourself a lot of money on your electric bill.
Now I know your thinking it’s a toaster oven! I’m telling you they are amazing now. We have one in my home as our oven has stopped working. We use it all of the time and we have seen a good drop in our electric bill. Now if you have never bought a toaster oven you may want to check out different ones online and see if you can find some reviews. One site I have come across is toasterovensguide.com and they have a good amount of reviews. What I really like is that the reviews are sorted by cost, that means you don’t have to read reviews for ovens you can’t afford. Check them out and save money that you can use on paint or new furniture.
