I have a small company. We have like 8 employees under our roof. I was in the pantry when I over heard three employees ranting at how inefficient the setup of the office is. They didn’t notice I was there. When I came out, they were red as tomatoes. I wanted to actually ask them what are the things that needed improvement. Good thing my cousin, an interior decorator, was willing to give me that insight. She suggested I change my setup to modular office furniture so my employees will have more room to move. When I announced this plan to my employees, those three were grinning from ear to ear. I’m sure glad I heard them.

When we moved to our home a few years ago, my dad installed exterior shutters and window plant boxes. My mom, a dedicated green thumb, did not waste any time planting on the boxes. But somehow, the short flowering seeds didn’t live. I don’t know where my mom got the idea that only the medium plants live in those plant boxes. To stop her from ranting, my dad uninstalled the shutters. He reworked them so they can become interior shutters. After a few weeks, I heard my giggling mom said to my aunt that her plan worked. I bet she just wanted to plant a particular flower. Witty.

I’m looking for a nice 3d home design software which is also easy to use to build a virtual home design, any suggestions/answer would be appreciated, thank you.
Envisioneer Express is an excellent 3D Home Design Software, to do small interior design projects or check how the furniture is going to look like in your newly bought home. All you have to do is design the basic structure including external and internal walls, set room divisions and insert windows and doors.

We set out part of our savings to give our house a little remodeling. We went to the stores this weekend and took home a lot of stuff. This week, we eased in the old items to give way to our new ones. We started in the bedrooms. We replaced the kids’ cot to a good luxury mattress to give them more comfort. We also replaced their princess dresser with a classic one. Bigger ones also replaced the couches on the living room. The kitchen counter is under the works. You can just imagine how may items are lined up for our garage sale next week.

I accompanied my friend Linda yesterday. She’s 21 and starting to have a family of her own. Her folks are okay with it. She is out to “canvass” for home appliances and other stuff they would need in her new home. We first went to some kitchen tools and appliances and I was so surprised that there were actually a lot of them. You can bet I never spend time in the kitchen. We went to bedroom supplies and I noticed she is so particular with bed headboards. Hell, I don’t even know their differences. I guess, really getting into that adulthood thing requires a lot of preparation.

Our son Railey is growing up fast. At 5, he thinks he is already a ‘man’. I don’t have any idea where got that kind of philosophy. I just noticed that he doesn’t play with his little toys anymore. When I asked, he was so shocked. “Mom??!! I’m big now!” My mom who was visiting us that time could not contain her amused laugh. The next day, Railey pulled me out of my chores to his bedroom. He removed his bedsheet and pointed to his cot bed mattress “Mom, it’s time you buy me a real bed.” I just smiled and agreed.

We had this recent project which has a theme of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. It was actually a room for a kid who really likes Mark Twain books. So, his mom wanted us revamp his kid’s bedroom to that effect as a surprise. We got everything ready and worked out. From the bed to the antique cabinet back to the walls. We were about to hand over the room a few days before our deadline when we realized that we didn’t do anything with the windows except paint it. We needed to come up with a quick solution and we did. We just installed old Louisina-inspired wood plantation shutters. Our client loved it!
