Techniques For Applying Eyeliner Applying eyeliner can be tricky at the best of times but there are some tried and tested techniques that if followed, should give you fabulous results. For a fine and natural look, apply a thin line of eyeliner to the lower lid. Then blend in with a brush if needed. For the fuller, round looking eye, first apply to the upper lid, making a thicker line in the middle of the lid using a pencil or liquid eyeliner. Now blend in with a brush if needed to give a smoother line. For larger looking eyes, line only the outer half of the upper and lower eyelid. If you are going for the dramatic look, apply a thick line of eyeliner to upper and lower eyelid, blending in with a brush if needed. For narrow eyes, only use eyeliner on upper lid to avoid closing eyes further. For the outer part of the eyelid, use pale colours to give shape and definition. Artificial lashes beneficial to help open eyes and make lashes appear thicker. For heavy eyelids, use pale

Live in your Living Room Is your living room a place for show, only used when you’re entertaining? Living rooms, as their name suggests, should not only reflect who you are to the outside world, but they should also be lived in. Here are some suggestions for making your living room warm and inviting for guests as well as functional and comfortable for family members. If your living room is large, divide it into smaller areas through the positioning of furniture. You want the "conversation pit" to be cozy - a couch and loveseat and a couple of chairs around a large cocktail table will seat many people, yet they’ll all be able to hear what the others are saying. A great place for family meetings as well as for entertaining. Make sure all seats are within reach of a table - someplace to set down those drinks and chips! Face the couch to an architectural focal point, such as a fireplace or a large window that looks out to your garden or the city lights. If you don’t have an architect

Arts and Crafts Revival The terms Arts and Crafts and Mission Style are often used synonymously today. They refer to a style of home design and furnishings emphasizing natural materials, especially wood, and showcasing a pronounced geometry in the design. Their tremendous revival in popularity stems largely from their association with hand-crafted elements (though many knock-offs are manufactured by machine), a rarity in this technologically advanced age. The pieces offer an heirloom quality and a patina that deepens with age. Arts and Crafts furnishings and interiors are also typically very durable and classic with a timeless appeal. They suit today’s desire to simplify and get back to basics. Arts and Crafts interiors are an ideal marriage of function and aesthetic; spaces are designed to work for those living there. To create your own Arts and Crafts interior, there are several elements to consider, both in materials and design. The materials of an Arts and Crafts interior,

But, according to experts, there s really no need to stress over "mess", especially if you learn how to clean up your act, BEFORE it gets out of control 1. Front and Center: Deal with items such as loose change, keys, mail, etc. right at the front door. Consider a console or nearby shelf on the wall on which to place things neatly and out of the way. And, don t forget to sort mail immediately tossing anything you d consider junk (though that doesn t include bills). 2. Go Barefoot On The Parquet: Okay, one of my biggest pet peeves is taking shoes off at the front door. After all, if you re visiting someone or attending a house party, shoes are part of the ESSENTIAL accessories that make and complete the outfit. Taking them off just makes the ensemble look, well, "silly". Still, I ll have to admit that for the "ca

Floating Shelving Floating shelving is a great way to create the illusion of space in apartments or flats and houses that have a shortage of it. They are called this because you cannot see any brackets or fixtures that are holding them up. They are mounted onto the wall by using hollow doors that are specifically cut to size and slid over an already mounted timber or lumbar stud. The result is floating shelving that looks stunning and flows with any room in your home. Floating wall shelves are perfect for putting up those old photo frames and other decorative adornments that you have been keeping locked up in your attic or garage. Little items like statues, trophies, gifts, displaying your homemade crafts and any other things you can think about would suit perfectly well on these shelves. Of course we have to be realistic and not place items that are too heavy on these shelves. A floating shelf bracket is usually a structure that has a slot for sliding in the shelf. The shelf c

How To Choose A Shelving System Shelving provides one of the most efficient methods of maximizing storage space. Shelving systems vary, from simple, single shelves supported by fixed brackets to fully adjustable units. Shelving can be designed to blend in with the style, character, and shape of a room, or even to function as a decorative feature.

Bed In A Bag Interior design is very important to most homeowners. One of the rooms of the home that requires extra special attention is the bedroom. This area of the home should be a sanctuary; a place to unwind after a long day.
