Stainless steel decor and accents

by

Do you like the look of stainless steel decor? I think it gives a home or room a very modern look. It can add an accent to what was once a boring corner or give the look of cleanliness and efficiency.

When we get around to renovating our kitchen I’d love to have stainless steel appliances and fixtures. At this point the only stainless steel in my kitchen is the sink, taps and our microwave. I’ll get there though!

If you enjoy the look of stainless steel you should take a look at the products being sold at the Stainless Steel Store. The have items for every room in your house and outdoors too!

When you visit the site you’ll discover that they have stainless steel cooking accessories and kitchen decor, items for dining, outdoor items such as stainless steel globes, torches, decorative pinwheels, tea light holders, stainless steel birdfeeders, firepits and more. Check it out for yourself. I think you’ll be pleased by the selection and prices.






Solar lights in the garden

by

I was just wondering how many of my readers use accent lighting in the garden?

We didn’t want the hassle of putting in an electric lighting system and I figured that in the long run we’d save more money by using solar lights so that’s the kind of accent lighting we use in our garden.

We also purchased a number of garden torches. I think they are about five feet tall. We place them in a symmetrical fashion, like the solar lights, throughout the garden and light them when we are in the garden in the evening.

The torches help to keep bugs away from us in the garden. It seems that there’s always a few mosquitoes or sand flies and gnats around and I must have sweet blood because they love biting me!

So … if you use lighting in the garden what kind do you use and how do you use it?
