Smooth cement finishing

Hi all!
It's been a long time since my last post.
I apologize about that.
Well, the reason why I am posting today is because I recently had a client that was having a hard time deciding on some floors for their summer house in Pelican Lake, MN.
She and her husband didn't know much about flooring, but they knew for sure that they didn't want to continue with the wood floors from the first floor because their basement area has an entrance from the beach and people will be coming in and out wet and with sand.
So I suggested them "smooth cement finishing" for the floors, which not only is easy to clean but also doesn't require much care.
They didn't know anything about it, but they found it very interesting and cheap.
Here some pictures for those who had no idea what I am talking about.

 

 

I have my website!

Sorry I haven't been posting recently, I was trying to focus in my website.
So here it is :)
Enjoy it!

I am back!

Hi everyone,
Happy New Year!
Hope you had the chance to take some time off.
I am finally back, and today I am just going to tell you something interesting I heard about how to "refresh" your house or how to make changes.
Yes! more about the same, but after all,  is always good to hear more advises.
So this person told me:

"Once a year, put all your stuff in the middle of the house, all your furniture, pictures, etc. and relocate them  in the house, find a new place for that picture and for that couch. You wont believe how big of a change you will find at the end. Even change the pictures from the frames".


So now you know~ What are you waiting to start!

1 more idea, and Merry Christmas :)

Hi,
Today I am bringing you 1 more idea to create a low budget change before the New Year comes and before I take a vacation :)
Yes I am leaving to Minnesota tomorrow! so I will be unplugged for some days.
But before leaving I wanna leave you thinking on how to create your wall of pictures, or your wall of memories.
Look at this pictures, may be they will inspire you:

 

As you can see, you don't have to worry making sure everything match or the shape of your frames is the same. You can mix them without standard. And you can also put family pictures on them or simply draws that you like.

So my advice is... start walking around the house and collect all the frames you see and hang them in THAT wall!

Good luck and Happy Holidays!

One thing more, don't reject the possibility of creating a wall of frames without pictures!

Create your own bookcase

Hi everyone,

Yesterday I promised I will give you some ideas to create small but cool changes with a low budget to start the new year with a good energy and I was thinking...
"Is there any person in this world who doesn't dream with that big library full of books?"
You can tell me whatever you want about the Kindle and the iPad, and blablabla... but even today lots of people still buy books and some of them I am sure enjoy making their own notes in them and highlighting a memorable phrase.
And I am telling you this because I am one of those weirdos.
What's more if you ever watch any Interior Design show, you will see how many Designers buy books only to decorate their clients houses. Something that I consider absolutely absurd.
Why you will spend money from your budget buying books that you might never read when I am sure you have lots of books that, even if they don't look pretty, you can make them look pretty very easily?
Yes! you can create a book cover and I am telling you, if you make a good choice when you buy the wrap this can't fail.
Today I am going to show you some pretty wrap ideas but of course, the same as with the pillows, the variety is infinite so you will have to do your own search or hire me to do it for you! ;)

          

 

Rejuvenate your couch!

Hi Inside's friend,

Any of you planning to do some small updates for the Holidays?
Thinking to start the new year with new energy and a refreshing touch in your place but you only have a small budget to do some changes?
Don't worry, I am here to help you!

Today I wanna talk to you about an easy way to renew your couch without even having to consider the possibility of reupholstering it.

Have you ever think in changing all those old, boring, plain, pillows you have?
There is infinite varieties of pillows that I would never be able show them all to you. But my advice is to choose two or three colors (at list one of them that match with your couch) and combine them...


Here some options:

Hope you enjoy it!
I will come with some other small changes soon!
