Finding a decent pet bed isn’t hard. In fact, you can find basic, mat- or cushion-style pet beds at basically any pet store or megamart. But finding one that both you and your pet can appreciate might be a little more complicated. Conventional pet beds take up a lot of floor space and border on […]
It’s the spookiest time of the year, and the scariest thing around is how cheaply-made the outdoor decorations from your local Halloween store are. If you plan to put out decorations in October and keep them there all month long until the big night, you can’t have your scary creatures blowing away in the wind. […]
Lighting design has come a long way since the invention of the light bulb, but while these days it’s possible to find lighting fixtures in almost any shape or size, sometimes sticking with the classics is the best way to make a statement.
