We never think of improvements we can make in our home by simple changes in our living quarters. Our living room seemed the right place to start. Most stores had the same tired selections and the styles were pretty similar. The internet seemed a good place to start looking. I really didn't want to drive all around tobin looking through furniture stores.

When we think of home improvements, visions of saw dust and sheet rock come to mind. We never get around to replacing the look that we loved several years ago. We couldn't do it all at once so we picked a room and jumped right in. Ma large cash outlays are also required.

We try to avoid these things as long as possible because it requires lots of time and effort.

It seems everything needs changing. If you are like me, I never know where to start. These improvements are rather easy and most can be done in a weekend.

We throw out stale bread, stale pastries and stale coffee but we hang on to stale furniture until it falls apart.
