HOW TO: Make Your House a Home






       Your modern architecture and furniture are lovely, everything is
       ordered,  in its place,  perfect. However, does  it feel  cold  and a bit
       stark? Not at all like what you grew up with?
       Modern decors often feel like you are living in a display home, even
       though it was not  your intention. Big spaces are undeniably hard
       to  decorate  and  have  little  privacy.  Do  you  find  that  you  just  can’t

       minimalist approach or the cluttered, which drives you nuts and they
       do not always get what cushions and rugs do! Bless the ones who do!

       rugs, cushions, vases and furniture, but it still feels aloof. What else is
       there that can warm any indoor and outdoor space, even the pool area,
       and, create a design that will add value to your home? As an artist and
       decorator here are a few ideas:                        Kitchen Splashbacks and Moveable Outdoor Murals on Galvo. You can                  North Lakes is well known for some of the best eateries in the Moreton Bay Region and
