I unexpectedly had some free time this past week and was able to spare a good amount of it for leisure and relaxation. If you know me well, my perfect way to relax is to spend hours bingeing on my favorite series on Neflix {which is currently Squid Game and this old local series, The Promise, just because I missed watching shows in my native tongue 😂}, reading books to put a dent on my very long to-read list, or tending to my growing plant collection.

I was browsing online for interesting websites to explore when I chanced upon www.solitaire.org. This is an online game website that features the very popular card game. It also has an assortment of other card and mind games that players of all ages will surely enjoy and love.

Choosing the best flooring is one important decision to make when building or renovating your home. Proper flooring can either make or break the over-all look and feel of your new or renovated space. Oftentimes, proper flooring can also ensure the safety of people, especially the little children, living in a house.

There are a number of factors to take into consideration in deciding which type of flooring best suits your living area. Here is my list:

Budget

Some types of flooring are more costly compared to others and it is best to set a specific budget for your flooring requirements. This will help you decide on which types of flooring to check out and avoid. Depending on the budget you set, you can either opt for high-end top quality flooring alternatives or choose the more economical ones that are easy on your wallet.

Of course, to give you more value for your money, you can always check more stores to compare prices and be on the lookout for warehouse or outlet sales and carefully time your purchases around them to score bigger discounts.

Tips + Tricks: 5 Things To Consider When Renovating Your Bathroom

The bathroom is an essential part of the household. This is a place of comfort and relaxation, and for busy mums with small children, it is a space for a little peace and quiet. It goes without saying that you would decide to renovate the bathroom a few times in this lifetime and there is nothing wrong with that. You would want your bathroom space to continue to spark joy and when it doesn’t, it is probably time for a much-needed renovation.

Here are top 5 things you might want to consider when you start planning to renovate your bathroom space:

Make a budget

As bathroom remodelling would entail a considerable expense, it is best that you create a budget for this project to determine the scope of your renovation. Consider the fixture that you might have to add to improve your bathroom, the things you might be able to re-use from your existing set-up, and the numbers of the actual repair and remodelling work that you want to get done.

It would prove helpful if you would also include in your budget calculation a provision for an extra lavatory if there are multiple people who will need to use the bathroom at the same time, or a provision for extra storage to help keep the space spic and span.

Add a bathtub

An important part of bathroom remodelling is deciding to add features to help improve the space or make bathtime even more relaxing. A new bathtub will be a perfect addition to a bathroom remodel. You must decided if you prefer a stand-alone bathtub or you would rather have a bathtub-shower combo, a rather old idea which will work perfectly in tight and smaller bathrooms.
