<p>Look closely at this window film by Artscape. It looks just like rice paper, doesn&#8217;t it? Great detail! This is perfect for creating the look of a traditional Japanese Shoji screen. If you have a series of small square framed windows, or long panel shaped windows, this rice paper design will transform them to look just like the real thing.</p>
<p>The company makes this window film in long narrow strips, but you can merge them seamlessly like wall paper to cover larger areas, and trim them down to fit your window size and shape exactly.  The film is self- adhering without the use of adhesives, so you can take it off easily, without damage or mess, even after years of use. The film filters out UV rays, and is not harmed by heat, cold, steam, or humidity.</p>
<p>You get the benefit of a translucent material that is not transparent. Your window will still let the light in, while giving you privacy.</p>
<p>The Shoji screen design instantly gives your room an understated look of elegant sophistication, and the clean lines that inspire tranquility and peace in your home or office. This would be perfect for a studio or meditation center as well. We should all be so lucky as to have such a serene environment to live in.</p>

<p>Wisteria is so lovely, and the look of stained glass gorgeous. This window film has a repeating pattern that allows you to seamlessly join the panels top, bottom, left and right, just like wall paper. It is also easily trimmed. You can make this film fit any window shape or size by adding panels or trimming them.</p>
<p>The film is translucent but not transparent, so you&#8217;ll still be bathed in natural light, while protecting your privacy. The design is visible on both sides, so you can enjoy the beauty of the window from either view.</p>
<p>Imagine if you had a window that looked over something ugly. This film would give you an instant country garden view instead. Applied to a glass shower stall, this film creates a privacy screen, while surrounding the bather in beauty. Can you imagine how dreamy your bathroom would be if this was your shower stall? Can you imagine how romantic your bedroom would be, and how quaint your kitchen would be with these windows?</p>
<p>Artscape window film is self adhering without adhesives, so you can remove easily without damage or mess, it even after years of use. It blocks the UV rays, and is not damaged by heat, cold, humidity, or steam. The film is so easy to apply, you can do it yourself in minutes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q3SP4Y?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=home-decor-hub-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000Q3SP4Y"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1447" title="bamboo-window-film" src="http://www.home-decor-hub.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/bamboo-window-film.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="280" /></a></p>
<p>This is a wonderful design idea. The clean lines and serenity of bamboo are elegant and beautiful without being gaudy. The color is perfect for rooms featuring a sand colored pallet. Blond wood looks right at home with this window decor.</p>
<p>Window film by art-scape self adheres without adhesives, so it can be easily removed even after years insitu. The white background and golden bamboo are translucent but not transparent, so they allow the room to be bathed in beautiful muted natural light, while providing privacy. The design is visible from both sides, so you enjoy the look of stained glass in more than one location. The pattern repeats like wallpaper, so you can add panels top, bottom, left, or right, and it and can be trimmed to fit your window size and shape.</p>
<p>Bamboo is a powerful Feng Shui remedy, so using this window film could raise the positive &#8220;Chi&#8221; (vital energy) in the rooms, home, office, clinic, or studio where it is used. It also makes a good privacy screen for a glass shower, as the wood energy helps to balance the excess water energy and compensate for the drains.</p>
<p>Even if you simply enjoy the Asian Aesthetic, and appreciate the peaceful and relaxing feeling you get with the Japanese decor , you&#8217;ll be glad you chose this window film instead of curtains.</p>
<p>The film filters out UV radiation, and stands up well to heat, cold, humidity, and steam.</p>

<p>The Magnolia design window film by Artscape is the best solution for your budget. Create the elegant beauty of stained glass, without staining your wallet, or altering your windows themselves. This is absolutely lovely, and will remove the need for drapes.</p>
<p>Here you have a 24 by 36 inch panel that repeats its design like wall paper so that you can add panels on top, bottom, left, and right, as one seamless design. It can be trimmed to fit any shape and repeated to fit any size. The film is self adhering without the use of adhesives, so even after years in place you can just peel it off with no residue or damage.</p>
<p>The film is translucent, but not transparent. Like stained glass, it provides privacy while allowing light to enter. The cheerful soothing colors will improve the look of any window, and give you something to hide behind in the shower, at your front door, or anywhere you&#8217;d like to enjoy the feel of looking out at nature with sunlight streaming through petals.</p>
<p>The film filters out UV rays, and will not fall apart in heat, cold, or steam.</p>
<p>The design itself is so pretty, it provides the perfect solution for windows that look out onto ugly views. With this film, there could be a junk yard outside your window, and you&#8217;d never know it. Instant country garden! Excellent decor idea.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A kitchen where delicious food is created, is a kitchen where the cook feels good about life. What things make you feel good about life? Bring those elements into your kitchen decor.</p>
<p>If romance inspires you to create gorgeous meals, then hang photos of your loved one on the kitchen wall, and train garlands of edible flowers to creep from your windowsill planter box, in through the window, and around it. Place candles around the kitchen, and use romantic lighting when you cook. Your cooking then becomes an offering of devotion, seduction, and admiration.</p>
<p>If your cooking is your connection to your heritage or your ancestors, decorate your kitchen with your ethnic art. Frame one of your favorite ancestral photos, and hang it on the wall.<br />
You can also place old hand written recipes in layers to cover the kitchen table, and then cover that with a sheet of clear glass. This makes a rustically charming decor focal point, or a classically elegant one if you write the recipes in calligraphy. Your guests will ooh and <span class="misspell">ahh</span> over this creative design.</p>
<p>If you want to cook healthful meals, hang a picture of yourself doing a realistic activity that can only be done with a strong healthy body (relative to your own circumstances), and a focused mind. If you have a family, hang photos of them showing off their health and strength too. For instance, a photo of your child proudly displaying a school assignment that earned a high grade, or flexing her/his biceps and smiling with white teeth, shows the rewards for eating healthful foods. Hang colorful charts depicting the ratio of proteins to carbohydrates that you need, and hang pretty pictures of beautiful organic fruits and vegetables. These will give you an appetite for what is good for you, instead of tempting you to eat junk food. Natural produce comes in all colors (even blue &#8211; for blueberries), so you can make a gorgeous rainbow on your wall.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012VTAPW?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=home-decor-hub-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0012VTAPW"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1374" title="cloud-mural-stickers" src="http://www.home-decor-hub.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/cloud-mural-stickers.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="280" /></a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve got a need for open skies and beauty that uplifts you, these are the wall mural stickers for you. Even a tiny room that has been converted into a nursery or child&#8217;s room will never feel claustrophobic,  if you paint it a pale shade of sky blue, and add these wall decals. The realistic looking, lovely, fluffy clouds turn any space into a heaven of sweet dreams.</p>
<p>These dry rub transfer instant murals are easy to apply like a sticker, and they come complete with an applicator stick. The difference between these and other wall mural decals or cut outs, is that these are such high quality reproductions of original paintings, that it will look as though you painted them on the wall yourself. You can even see the original artist&#8217;s brush strokes, because the printing technology is so advanced.</p>
<p>They are also as thin as paint, so you can paint right over them if you ever decide to change the room decor.</p>
<p>The 10 instant mural clouds are different sizes which helps to create the illusion of distance. This is perfect for tricking the brain into believing that you have plenty of space around you, and can gaze off into the distance.</p>
<p>Add a mobile of airplanes, or birds, or balloons, and you have a delightful room decor theme.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you design your home decor, the most important thing is that it be a healthful home. This means no toxic emissions.  How do we create a home with no toxic emissions? It&#8217;s all about the materials we use. The largest surfaces areas of our homes are the walls and floors, so let&#8217;s start there.  Add the surface areas of our furniture, and you have an enormous exposure zone to toxins. This is because walls, floors, and furniture are usually painted or stained with substances that are quite toxic. There are however, safe alternatives. If paint is eco friendly, it is most often non-toxic, so look for green product certification such as Green Seal Standard (GS-11).</p>
<p>You know that outdoor air is polluted, but did you know that indoor air is three times more polluted than outdoor air? The EPA deemed indoor household air to be one of the top 5 hazards to human health. Conventional finishes and paints are among the leading causes, because they release low level toxic emissions into the air continuously, for years after their application.  Beware of any product containing ethylene glycol, formaldehyde, heavy metals, or methylene chloride.</p>
<p>A variety of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were essential to the performance of paint, until recently. Now the technology has improved, and non-toxic alternatives are available.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a remedy for rooms that make you claustrophobic. The antidote for cramped or windowless spaces is to paint a continuous landscape mural on every wall and the ceiling, to trick the eye into believing you are outside with lots of room to run in every direction. Perspective drawing of your favorite landscape is all you need to turn your room into a relaxing, beautiful environment.<br />
Covering your wall with a beautiful detailed mural can be the key to any fantasy room. If you can bring it alive in your art, or if you can hire the right person to do that, you have the opportunity to bring your fantasy to life.</p>
<p>A wall mural is a way to bring the outdoors inside, using artistic inspiration. It does not have to be perfectly realistic, either. Letting the imagination run wild can be the key to some very interesting artistic creations which can inspire you and those who share the room with you.</p>
<p>A room mural is perfect for children, adults and elders. Teenagers and convalescents will find room murals to be especially helpful when they lack the mobility they crave. The mural gives them the feeling of being outside, roaming freely.  Adventure landscapes spark children&#8217;s imaginations.  Office workers can become more inventive and industrious when they are treated to inspiring views.</p>
<p>When choosing furniture for a room with picture painted walls, be sure to pick items that will enhance rather than cover or clash with the painted scenes. For instance: If your room is painted to look like a desert, then large embroidered pillows and low laying ottomans would give the d?cor the feel of a Bedouin tent. If your room is painted to look like rolling hills covered in vineyards, then using furniture you&#8217;d find in a winery garden would fit the scene.</p>

<p>The <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000MIPG0E?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=home-decor-hub-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000MIPG0E">Flower Growth Chart</a> is a beautiful addition to your child&#8217;s bedroom decor, as well as a practical way to keep track of her/his growth. Kids love to see tangible proof of their progress in life, and here is one way to give them a sense of accomplishment. &#8220;Look how much you grew! It must be all those organic vegetables you ate. Good job!&#8221; What kid wouldn&#8217;t love to hear that?</p>
<p>The chart is heavily laminated, and easily marked. Just stand your child in front of the flower&#8217;s stem, and mark it at the height of his or her head. You can use an erasable marker, a permanent one, or a sticker to mark each growth spurt.</p>
<p>The chart comes with butterfly stickers to mark the ages, and 9 extra stickers to use at your discretion. The chart folds into a gift box, and stretches up to 5 feet tall when extended and hung on the wall.</p>
<p>The gift box can be used to store the chart as a keep sake when your child out grows it.</p>
<p>The Flower Growth Chart is so pretty, and so colorful, that regardless of whether you use it for measurement, it will make your child&#8217;s room a cheerful happy place.</p>
<p>This makes a great gift, and is affordable enough to buy for more than one child.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001NAW338?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=home-decor-hub-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B001NAW338"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1208" title="31uptdbkel_sl500_aa280_1" src="http://www.home-decor-hub.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/31uptdbkel_sl500_aa280_1.jpg" alt="" width="280" height="280" /></a></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a great idea for a kid&#8217;s room. Not only is it a fun decor theme, it is educational too. These illustrated alphabet stickers show both the capital and lowercase letters, and a picture of something that will remind your child of the sound the letter makes. Your child will learn to read faster and more fluently, if these stickers are the first thing s/he sees upon waking and the last thing s/he sees before falling asleep. Perfect for making them feel grown up and offering them stimulating challenges, they are also colorful art pieces.</p>
<p>The stickers come in a variety of sizes from 2 inches by 1 inch and 1/4 up to 9 inches by 12 inches and 1/4. The best feature, is that these stickers can be peeled off and moved as many times as you like, without damaging them or the wall. How&#8217;s that for a no-risk experiment in kid&#8217;s room decor?</p>
<p>A few ideas for creative decor themes:</p>
<p>Get more than one set, and spell each child&#8217;s name over his/her bed.</p>
<p>Spell out sentences or phrases that inspire your child to read. Change the text before s/he comes home from school or kindergarten, or preschool, and make a game of sounding out each new arrangement.</p>
<p>Place them in alphabetical order, and make a game of looking up words in the dictionary. Every time s/he forgets the order of the alphabet, s/he need only look up and see it on the wall.</p>
<p>These sticker sets make great gifts, and are so affordable that you can get more than one set.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Feng Shui or Fengshui is the ancient Chinese art of home and office decor. Today people from all over the world are discovering the benefits of this Asian wisdom. The system used to create a pleasant and peaceful home, and a productive prosperous work environment, is one that understands the flow and balance of energy in a given space. This energy is called Chi, and is considered vital for health on every level: physical, mental, spiritual, and economical.</p>
<p>To achieve a balance of energies from the five elements, water, wood, fire, earth, and metal, one must have them each proportionally represented in a room.</p>
<p>To be sure that Chi flows at the right pace and in best pathways, without stagnating or overwhelming any particular place in a room or home, refer to the above mentioned article.</p>
<p>With a little bit of knowledge, you can improve the well being of occupants in any space using the Feng Shui principles. Not only does it work to improve your health, it also improves your relationships and makes your decor more beautiful.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The art of stamping has been improving the look of people&#8217;s homes for hundreds and even thousands of years. Stamping allows you to create a consistent design over a large area. Whether you use the same colors to create an identical repeating image, or whether you use a different color each time, your pattern will look cohesive if you use a stamp.</p>
<p>Stamps can be made from many materials, including natural latex, wood, and potatoes.<br />
The easiest do-it-yourself stamp is made from a potato, cut open to expose a flat surface. After drawing the design on the flat surface of the potato, use a craft knife to cut away any area you don&#8217;t want to show up in your image. The remaining material should form the shape of your flat image of choice. Dab that surface in ink or paint, and you have a stamp that is reusable and biodegradable.</p>
<p>Now you are ready to personalize your home decor. Stamps make good border designs on floors, along the perimeter of ceilings, the backs of chairs, the perimeter of tables, the tops of walls, and fabric for curtains, bedspreads, pillow covers, furniture slip covers, and anyplace you&#8217;d like to create beautiful designs. If you use the same stamps on the furniture, curtains, bedspread, the tops of the walls, and the perimeter of the floor, you create harmonious room decor.</p>
