Greg think you have made a great start, just needs a few colourful statement pieces. Firstly the chest of drawers are fab, my suggestion if you like them would be to utilise them in the lounge either side of the radiator under the window, for storing what looks like cd's the other side of the fireplace in these. You could put the existing cubes either side of the two sofa's. I would ditch the rug in the lounge, and get something bold and bright such as cobalt blue with orange/yellow. In the bedroom, keep the IKEA drawers and paint them either black or dark blue and have them adjacent to each other on the back wall opposite the bed, with the TV on top as someone has already suggested. The art work is great, but would swap it over to where the mirror is and move that elsewhere. Again ditch the rug, maybe an animal skin would work well in here, keeping a masculine feel. Pick some of the colours from the artwork for a well chosen throw and cushions for the bed, and don't be afraid to use some other accessories such as vases, lamps and dare I say candles!

I had this roof re shingled by a handyman 5 years ago but did such a poor job I want to re shingle the whole house. I am dealing with a licensed contractor this time with a BBB is A plus. They are using Cambridge AR shingles so we need to pick a color and we think dual brown will go but what about what about other colours. Maybe driftwood? We tried roof viewer but hard to get true colours off a computer.

Hi. I'm not sure if you're buying the fern prints or just whether they're for inspiration? I might go for navy bedding but keep a couple of pillows white (presumably they're safe?!). Then I'd layer a faux fur throw to bring in the rustic element over the top of the navy throw (pick your dogs fur colour!). Then I'd pick out the mustard from the curtains, these cushions are by Clarissa Hulse. You can add a fern on the chest of drawers. I might also add some mirrors behind the lamps

There are many remedies available to help you get a good night’s sleep. From lavender oil and lullabies to mediation and mindfulness. But when it comes to the crunch, the right sleeping equipment is essential. Luxury pillows are not only high-end quality but they also give you the comfort necessary for a sound night’s sleep. There’s a large variety to choose from. So, if you don’t know duck feather pillows from goose down pillows or you think that luxury pillows are reserved for 5 Star hotels, our guide will help you. Do I need a new pillow? If you think your pillow needs replacing, chances are it does. Although there are some exceptions, the ideal lifespan for any bedding pillow is approximately two – four years. Most people overlook the condition of their pillow, so if you are unsure how worn yours is, firstly check it for stains caused by sweat. If there’s more than a few, your pillow needs to go. As well as stains, check for bad odors too - unclean pillows can increase the chance of allergic reactions. It’s also worth doing the ‘bend test’ on your pillow; bend it in half and if it doesn’t jump back into shape, you need a new one! Which pillow filling is best for me? It’s easy to feel overwhelmed with the choice of pillow fills available. Duck and goose feather down pillows are widely considered luxury pillows but what is the difference? There can be a bit of confusion when it comes to feather and down pillows, both of which are made from either duck or goose plumage. Goose down pillows are made from the plumage underneath the goose’s feathers. This plumage is designed to insulate and is very soft. Goose feather pillows are made from the outer plumage of the goose (its feathers) which are stronger and more resilient, designed to keep it dry. Duck feather and down pillows are similar in this sense: duck down pillows are made from the under plumage and the duck feather pillows are made from the outer plumage. Also available are feather and down blend pillows which are a mix of both down and feathers, all offering different levels of weight and softness according to the combination. The key difference between duck and goose feathers is that because geese are larger birds, they have bigger down clusters which provide more insulation. However, the main measurement of quality in a feather or down pillow is the density of the fill. What is pillow fill? ‘Pillow fill’ or ‘fill power’ are terms used to describe the amount of fill inside a pillow. As a general rule, the higher the fill power, the higher the quality of pillow and the more likely it is to retain its original firmness. It’s worth noting that fill power does not correlate to the level of firmness of luxury pillows, it more conveys its long-lasting quality. For example, a pillow with 850 fill is not necessarily firmer than one with a 650 fill but it is likely to last longer.
