Mirrors are known for their decorative features. Given their reflective properties, mirrors also add more light to the interiors, apart from adding character to the room. Since a mirror is an integral part of your room and home decor, it is important to install it perfectly. This Pottery Barn video demonstrates how to hang a mirror perfectly to create the right visual statement. Before mounting a mirror, it is important to check the correct alignment, height and aesthetic appeal of the location. Some of the hardware essentials for mounting a mirror include a measuring tape, a screw driver, mounting studs, and a pencil. To make the correct visual effect, it is recommended to mark mirror positions on the wall and measure them with a tape for correct alignment before drilling holes to mount it. Always remember, a perfectly mounted mirror makes the right style statement and adds to the overall home decor.

This is a walk-thru of the interior of my home in Hawaii “decked out” for Christmas in true “designer form”. I usually decorate not only for myself but for my family and friends as my “gift” to them for Christmas. Every year the main tree theme changes and this year, 2009, it’s a “Fantasy Angel” theme utilzing colors of green, gold, and brown…with “bling!” I’m a professional floral designer, and I’ve always loved this time of year ever since I could remember. Mele Kalikimaka (Merry Christmas in Hawaiian)! Hope you enjoy the “tour”!

Question: I really need help with this…?
i know this is R&S, but i’ve posted this question other places- but there aren’t as many people as there is on r&s . I have just started up a buisness with home decor accents. They are signs, frames, tiles etc. that have cute vinyl lettering quotes on them and phrases and are customizable with people’s names. I cannot think of a good company name. My first choice was A way with words- but there are several companies on line with that name already–anybody have any ideas? My mother thought of “thinking of you; creative home decor or “express yourself; conversational home decor” —neither of them really jump out at me- i would appreciate any suggestions thanks!

Question: Ladies!! Why do you feel that the ENTIRE house should be decorated your way?
Here’s the deal. I have owned my house for 11 years.

In all that time I have never lived with a girl until recently. It is a decent sized house. 4 bedrooms,3 full bathrooms,2 living rooms and 2 dining rooms.

The girl I have been with for just over a year just moved in a few months ago. Until that time,my whole house was decorated as a Bar/pub/lounge. I put alot of my stuff into storage and consolidated down into just one dining room and one living room which are connected ( I took the smaller pair) for my style of decor.

I told her that she may decorate the larger living room and larger dining room, all 4 bedrooms,and all 3 bathrooms any way she wants.

Well she is not happy with that. She wants the whole house her way and calls my decor “stupid” Well what is stupid to her is important to me. I dont really like flowers and potpourri,but I know its important to her.

I am not budging on this and I am not asking if I am right or what should I do. I have the right to come home from a hard day at work and be happy in my surroundings.

What I want to know is for the ladies that are like her and agree with her. My question is:

Why does she feel that she has some right to the entire house to be decorated her way and nothing my way? And before anyone suggests that I should compromise,read my entire section above and you will see that I am already MORE than compromising.

Answer by James H
Get her told then, be the man of the house
You like the way you want it, tell her, if she dissagrees…do it anyway
if she can take over the way you want your own house, take it back
