<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Candles and diffusers adds the finishing touch to every decor by creating ambience and making the space smell divine. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Diffusers and candles perform a different function and
together they form a partnership. Think of them as you would your all over body
lotion and then adding the finishing touch with a light spray of the matching
perfume. Sell them as companions.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Diffusers have a lighter scent that continuously wafts
through the room. They are best situated near entrances, however do not place
them near heater vents as heat will evaporate the liquid and may also change
the chemical balance in the mixture. If you are going away for an extended
period of time then you may choose to place the sticks in a ziplock bag and
screw the top back on the bottle. If there is no lid then place a small piece
of glad wrap around the top and secure with a rubber band. When the diffuser is
finished don’t throw away your dried sticks, just sticky tape them onto the lid
of your rubbish bin or place them in your linen closet (make sure they are dry
so you don’t leave stains on your linen).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Candles create ambience and add a romantic flavour, people
just gravitate to a flame, especially a beautifully scented one. They have a
much stronger scent than a diffuser and are fantastic to light up as a booster
to your diffuser. Burning them for two-four hours is usually recommended for a
big room, less for a smaller room. Burning time differs from candle to candle.
Candles encased in glass are not to be left burning longer than 2-4 hours at any
given time, the glass should not reach the point where it is too hot to handle
as it may crack. Always place candles on a level surface that is heat resistant
and avoid draughty areas. In draughty areas the candle must be secured in a
glass container.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Efficient use of candles<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Wicks should be trimmed to 1/8 inch above the wax before lighting
including the initial light. Most wicks will form a mushroom after burning for
some time, when this happens just snip the mushroom off before relighting. The
reason for a shorter wick is so that the candle does not create a high flame. A
high flame will not only burn faster, therefore not lasting as long, but it
will also begin to smoke causing soot marks on your walls and ceiling. To trim
the wick use either a candle trimmer, a small pair of scissors or a nail
clipper.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Due to health warnings, all wicks must be lead and cadmium free,
the wax is to be paraffin free and scented candles should be free of/or have
low VOC’s. VOCs are volatile organic compounds and are generally to be avoided
in products used in the home in the interests of a healthy atmosphere. A braided
or twisted fibre wick is considered safer to use. If anyone suffers from severe
asthma then a diffuser is the way to go over candles, provided they can
tolerate even that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Tunnelling is when a deep dip in the candle surface appears
around the wick. For tunnelling not to appear, don’t blow candles out before
the entire surface area has melted. This will ensure that the next time you
relight the candle will burn evenly. If tunnelling has occurred then you can
simply use the trick of wrapping a piece of foil around the glass when lit,
this will heat up the surface area evenly.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A safe method of cleaning candle jars with paraffin or
beeswax is to place them in the freezer for a couple of hours. When the wax is
frozen then carefully use a knife to crack and pry bits of wax away. Wait until
the glass has reached room temperature and then fill the jar with hot soapy
water. Leave for a few minutes before washing away all the remaining wax. With
Soy wax there is no need to place in the freezer, just fill the container with
hot soapy water and scrub. Candle jars can then be used to hold anything and
can be very decorative holding something colourful, like jellybeans.<o:p></o:p></div>

There is an art to pulling off an eclectic interior style or
simply integrating a period home with modern appliances. For a great seamless look
a few rules must be followed.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Keep in mind that a space must always flow, and in order to
design this unity and harmony, the objective aim is to strategically place complimentary objects around the room.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Here
are some of the many examples; the grouping of colours and items of similar
weight, style, age, value, shape, theme, texture or finishes. The emphasis is
on constructing a theme or story. Another method is to follow and repeat the
organic curves from one element to another, or by mimicking a geometric motif
or pattern.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It is equally important to ensure that there is sufficient
space and relief between each focus of attention. If there is more than one
focal point intended, then, scatter your focal points around the room with the
intention of making sure that the line of sight comes to rest at differing
levels eg. a painting on the wall and a sculpture on the floor, this will draw
the eye up and then down. Importance and hierarchy is achieved by creating ample
areas of distance between each point of convergence. This process is reached by
avoiding clutter, only selecting and displaying objects of meaning and beauty, grouping
these together, keeping the number of items to a minimum and placing them at a
distance of each group. All awhile ensuring to create levels in height between
each object, this formation will support your focal points. Of course the exception
to the rule is if you intentionally want the focus to be all at one level
leading the eye down a tunnel or along a line. No group of objects should
overwhelm or overpower another.</div>

Sophisticated, fresh, rustic and up market, the interiors are drenched in
plenty of natural daylight and filled with white on white, neutral or light
finishes. It is relaxed, casual, comfortable and has a breezy easy feel. Lots
of wood finishes preferably bleached, faux furs, touches of beachy ornaments
displayed in clear glass jars and bowls, a little wicker, linen and cotton fabrics, big soft
couches and then finished with scatter cushions. A perfect recipe.<o:p></o:p></div>

Colour plays an important role in relating to the mind, body
and the emotional state of the viewer. The influence of colour has a huge
impact on the human behaviour and responses, it drives many factors from
personal emotional growth through to latest fashions and primarily sets the
schemes for present interiors. Colour responses are subjective and we all relate and gravitate to our favourite hues depending on how it makes us feel. Below are examples of images that I have photoshopped and their meanings.</div>

Unity creates order by the combination of cohesion, consistency, integrity and wholeness. In other words unity is integrated and supported by all the other design principles.<o:p></o:p></div>

In the image chosen for unity, the design of the interior blends and sits well with the exterior and in the outside environment. The mission was to take the inside and outside and fuse them together in an easy seamless transition.<o:p></o:p></div>

Natural materials of stone and wood are important considerations in linking the interior, exterior and nature. Inside, the huge expanse of glass panels blur the lines between the inside and the outside, whilst on the outside, strengthening the emphasis on the landscape the infinity water pool suddenly disappears into the wilderness. The large scale of the buildings sits comfortably in amongst the endless vastness. In total the design makes an obvious reference to nature in use of materials and layout so as to encourage the viewer to look beyond the limitations of the house and journey out into the distance.<o:p></o:p></div>

Along with the materials, the colours and textures that are used mimic the natural world. Balance is found in an equal distribution of visual weight and shape in two buildings. The large windows allow for plenty of natural light to flood the rooms. The structures are evenly composed taking into account the rule of thirds, with the landscape in the centre being the key focus.<o:p></o:p></div>

The emotional response here is of casual ease, harmony, tranquillity and oneness. Thought and feelings conjure up a vacation on an opulent resort somewhere in a remote destination far far away from the urban sprawl.</div>

Slumped angel glass table with lighting. This is a hall table I designed and had custom made for a salon 20 years ago. Travertine and slumped glass. Still one of my favourite pieces.<br />

Misty woodlands makes a wonderful backdrop for these gorgeous elephants. Elephants with their trunks up generate movement and good Chi flow, great for kitchens and living rooms. Trunks down are perfect for places of rest and contemplation such as bedrooms and meditation rooms, these are places where the Chi must be grounded.Adriana Cosshallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10794805750870174319noreply@blogger.com0
