An unfinished basement can be one of the most scariest and spooky areas of the house and that’s probably because they never really were designed for living in the first place. Historically, the basement was designed as a storage area – purposely kept dark and cold to preserve perishable items like food and drinks. Today, we don’t need our basements to preserve perishables – we have refrigerators for that! So why are so many basements still unfinished?

Who knows. The fact is that the basement is one of the largest rooms in a house and it has huge potential for fantasy fulfillment. With today’s advancements in home improvement, there’s really no excuse for anyone doing laundry or storing unused toys in a creepy unfinished basement filled with unsightly pipes, exposed wires, and yucky spiders.

Typically the same width and length of the entire home, the basement could be viewed as a second home, an at-home-business office, a workout gym, play area for the kids, or even your very own miniature golf course. It’s potential is as wide as the living area upstairs and if carefully planned, can double the fun of interior living.

Your contractor can help you come up with a plan that could make the basement area indistinguishable from the upstairs area by doing a few simple things:

1. Insulate the Basement. Although heat rises, a lot of energy is lost in the basement because it’s rather porous compared to the rest of the house. After all, it’s surrounded by the outside ground and it’s prone to minute cracks, water leaks, and air drafts from non-sealed joints and crevices. Insulating a basement will help keep that heat in the basement during the winter months and allow you to enjoy doing laundry downstairs as if you were upstairs standing next to a warm oven.

2. Hang drywall. Nothing brightens up a room more than fresh new drywall. Drywall is usually white or off white and it does a tremendous job of hiding the dark gray stone walls that you might be used to looking at in the basement. Of course drywall isn’t just for walls – your contractor can hang it on the ceiling as well and turn a dreary place into a light-filled room.

3. Install carpeting, wood, or tile Flooring. This is a great step towards transforming a cold cement rectangular prism into an inviting space to spend some quality time. A little insulation between your new flooring and that cold cement floor that you now have will help keep your toes as warm as they are inside your favorite houseshoes.

4. Put in decorative lighting. Soft studio lighting embedded into a sound-proof ceiling gives what was once a very hard-looking environment – a soft new look.

These very basic changes are low cost additions and give you a platform for adding complimentary furniture, appliances, an entertainment center, or anything else that your heart desires. Just remember – it all starts with a solid plan and a good contractor.

Alpha hydroxy acids are now in common use by dermatologists, cosmeticians and the many people buying over the counter skin care products. They are available in moisturizers, cleansers, eye creams, peels, foundations and anti-wrinkle preparations. They are most commonly used for dry skin care, but can tend to be too harsh and therefore damage the skin further. The damage can be repaired with a shielding lotion, but it might also be a good idea to try some of the gentler alpha hydroxy acids Mother Nature has to offer instead of those on the shelves.

Alpha hydroxy acids are plant extracts that, in themselves, are not harmful unless used in very high concentration – which can cause redness and swelling that may last for weeks. Their major benefit is in their ability to accelerate exfoliation. Dead skin cells are stripped away, leaving your skin looking fresh and young. The acids also improve fullness and elasticity by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. As dead skin cell build-up is more common with dry skin than other skin types, and as dry skin tends to be thinner and less supple, these properties are especially benefical in dry skin care.

If you would like to try these acids au naturel rather than in expensive treatments or preparations, here’s where you can find them:

* Bilberry extract – Bilberry is a shrub with leaves and fruit that have toning properties. The extract is a good source of natural alpha hydroxy acid and is available in health food stores.

* Citric acid – most concentrated in lemons and limes, is it high in both antioxidants and alpha hydroxy acids. Both lemons and limes are helpful for dry skin care and are easy to prepare. You can squeeze them for juice and apply them, or simply cut the fruit in half and run it in.

* Sugar cane and sugar maple extracts – extracted from the juicy pulp of sugar cane and the Sugar Maple Tree, these are both good natural sources of alpha hydroxy acids. Although these may be hard to find in stores, a quick search online will produce many sources.

Although bilberry, lemons, limes and sugar plant extracts may be easier on the skin than the usual products, the exfoliation process can still leave it a little raw and vulnerable. So make sure you follow your alpha hydroxy treatment – natural or otherwise – with a good shielding lotion specially formulated dry skin care.

The best ideas for patio designs can be seen with the designed ones. It is quite nice if you have your own creative skills to do a patio, as these days the stores have everything you have in mind conceptualized for outdoor comfort. This can be the large wicker outdoor sofa set or even the rocking chair in the wicker concept. What you really want to do with the garden concept is totally your choice. It is convenient for you to get a landscaper who can suggest a few designs to you. Outsourcing the cleaning part of your patio is very important if you do not have much time in hands to do a fortnightly clean up for your patio.

Whether it is awnings, a large sail shade or even a small umbrella, shades are the best things you can do for your patio. A corner can have some pebble works or even you can work out a small children s park area with ready items in swings or slides. The large patios are becoming greatly coveted but that does not mean you have a lesser choice in other items. Easy to view and select, shopping online is such a comfortable factor. Know the colors you already have in your patio and then look for reasonable purchases that will be affordable to you. Selecting an outdoor sofa set is quite easy in the online shops.

Knowing what is available in the wicker outdoor sofa set will help you understand whether you have the right space for it. Roughly have an idea of where you will keep the sofa, so that you can judge the length it will occupy in your patio. If you already have a bistro set in your patio, you can look for other concepts in seating other than a large sofa say probably a love seat or a customized sofa set. It is nice to know that you can actually take your pick in the online carts and if you wish they will even deliver it too within a few days.

Know the patio shop well:

1. The best quality outdoor sofa set has to be of a good make.

2. Team the accessories and compare the prices.

3. Visiting the shop often will make you realize the best bargains.

4. A good patio shop will offer you the newest collection.

5. Look for special discounts and offers.

A reasonable budget will help you get the coveted wicker outdoor sofa set. It is so nice to have guests around and your bonding will simply increase with the freshness of outdoors. There are amicable designs for a small patio as the best can be seen in rugs, marble sculpture, stones and water fronts. For a small patio, the seating arrangement in a sofa too will be needed in the compact sizes which can be just apt for the patio size. Are you planning to make the stones yourself? Why not? You surely get stones or lime stones in various shapes and you can just sprawl them around one corner or either side of a neat pathway. Or else you can have them painted at a prominent area and choose to use the place as a flower garden.

The greenery in your patio is a welcoming sight. So there is no compromise here. You would also want a hammock during spring which can easily be put away when the weather is chilly. The right way to shop would be to make a list and go by the same. The best would be accessorizing it with marble carvings or even a water fall. But you can do much with an outdoor kitchen too. A fridge in your patio is a fabulous idea to stock a bar that is much needed during partying. For lights the best is seen in LED as the light is right enough for giving good illumination.

Whenever you need to go on a vacation, you can just make use of the covers to ably cover your furniture. This way there is no problem of accumulation or infestation of any kind even if there is an unseasonal rain. The furniture is always pre treated so when you buy the wicker set you really do not have to worry much. Choose a good dimension and space when you intend to buy the outdoor sofa set. Most of things for a patio are ready made and a shop would also customize it for you if you require a specific furniture shape, design or size.

Most of us have never given much thought to a stairlift; for those who are able bodied, climbing and descending the stairs is just something that we do throughout the day. But for those who are physically challenged, managing stairs can be something to which they give quite a bit of thought. Luckily, advancements in technology has given way to a variety of products designed to help physically challenged consumers live a life of greater independence; one such product is the stairlift – an electric or battery powered device that moves users up and down stairs. While the purchase of new stairlift systems can come at a hefty price, the availability of used stairlifts offer consumers the technology that they need at a cost-effective price.

Used stairlifts – like their newer counterparts – come in a variety of models. While some provide a swivel stool on which users can sit, others offer a shelf on which users can perch or stand. With the activation of the unit, the user is moved up or down the stairs along a track that is mounted into the wall along the stairs. For those in wheelchairs, a wheelchair stairlift offers a platform onto which the user can position their chair before activating the mobility of the unit. Electric stairlifts utilize electric power while battery operated units run on rechargeable batteries.

New stairlifts of any variety are often expensive to install, in part because you are paying for the parts. Used stairlifts are available at much lower prices than newer units because the equipment is not new. Often consumers have the opportunity purchase used stairlifts that have been rented by other customers for temporary use. And even though the time in which they used the unit was short, the unit depreciates considerably in price.

You can often purchase used stairlifts through those companies that sell them new. Do some online research to find companies that will sell and install stairlifts and you will undoubtedly find an option to purchase used stairlifts. Company representatives will take measurements in your home and help you determine the services that will be most beneficial to your needs – after which they will install the unit and instruct you on the proper operation. Shop around for prices that are within your budget restrictions and you will surely find a unit that fits your needs – offering you a much greater level of independence.
