Recycled furniture done the right way can churn out cool looking stuff but as you can see, these are works of art that only the imaginative individuals can think of.

Matt Shiley’s chairs take more of a gritty, steampunk look which sets it apart from most eco furniture pieces we have already seen around. Whether they were designed for work or for functionality, you will agree that these works are truly something that can be used.

Excerpt from post:
“First I collected a lot of jeans, not hard since I have kids who keep wearing theirs out. Then cut off the legs to make three inch wide strips. I wanted rows of colors, but with little kids there just isn’t enough jean material in one pair of pants to make a complete row, so each row is a scattering of different colors.”

There are some homes that go all out each Christmas and this includes changing some stuff ranging from paintings, rugs and even seat covers. Normally, the season entices most people to change these to the Christmas themed designs to get the household and the people who may be visiting into the holiday mood.

Among the things people change:

1. Table Cloths
2. Seat Covers
3. Vases
4. Bed Sheets
5. Drapes
6. Rugs
7. Mattings
8. Candle holders/ Candles

This is a common thing we may seen in homes that are emphatic about the holidays. Some would go as far as installing Christmas lights although the decline of turning towards the use of these lights started out last year due to a call of more conservative practices as far as Christmas lighting is concerned.

So while others are looking at brighter homes, you can do so with home-based themes that provide your home with a total overhaul in looks. Make the season festive with these facelift of Christmas ornaments through covers, drapes, table cloths and seatcovers. It only comes once a year.

What is a home without the usual welcoming mat or perhaps the enhanced flooring that some people look up to when it comes to perking up the ambiance level of homes? While rugs may not be that expensive and come in different designs and makes, eco-friendly rugs are something that can be of consideration as well.

The Hug Rug is a barrier mat made from recycled materials like tires and plastic bottle tops. So if you are among the millions trying to turn your house to the green standards, a mat can welcome you towards the way.

Phoenox Textiles Ltd, a family business at Spring Grove Mill, Clayton West, has already won an award for Hug Rug, a barrier mat which is made entirely from recycled materials, including tyres and plastic bottle tops and is 100% recyclable.

The product – which will be launched to consumers in February next year – earned Phoenox Textiles a trophy in the Glee Awards 2008 at Birmingham’s NEC.

Complete interior designing and home makeovers can further be improved with the right placement of aura setting accessories. Carpets, paintings and rugs have that knack of spicing up a room or the whole home if they are placed properly. But such is easier said than done. Similar to art works, you have to consider various issues such as proper blending of colors and how they can enhance a room upon their placement and installation.

There are plenty of rug designs in the market and among them lies the perfect rug. Just check them out and see which fits best. Make sure you don’t overdo it since an over-designed room may look like a home with no conceptualization nor direction at all.

A great rug can impart warmth to a chilly room and act as a focal point for the rest of the your decorating scheme. Like the perfect partygoer, it can combine being the life and soul with bringing out the best in its fellow guests. The secret is to steer clear of the overbearing, room-dominating It-rugs (oversized Union Jacks are out) and explore the latest collections, which feature soft-spoken, subtle geometric patterns in sumptuous cut piles, felts and exotic fibres.

“As decorative accents rugs serve a beneficial purpose in that they protect hardwood, linoleum and carpeted floors from regular wear from foot traffic or rolling chairs, and help keep the warm air within your home during the winter months. Albeit that having a large area rug in the center of your living room is a good idea, it’s also not a bad idea to look at other parts of your home, such as those areas that have bare floors. Popular spots around the home that can always use a rug include the hallways, dining rooms and even the bedroom.”
