For the people who seem to have it all or for those who are bored with their lifestyle, there are a few things that one can do to spruce-up one’s life. Perhaps one of the best ways however is to begin redecorating one’s home. Some of the first places one should consider redecorating are your bathroom and kitchen.

These are often the most overlooked and yet, most used rooms in the entire house. Think about it, have you spruced up at least even one of these rooms within the past five years? The answer is probably „no“, in which case think back to the last time you even looked closely at your bathroom or kitchen other than to Spring clean them.

More than likely, if you noticed anything at all, you put the notion off until a future date when you could devote more time to decorating your bathroom or kitchen, although at that time, the place certainly didn’t look as old as it does now, after all, the years soon mount up and even though you’ve been keeping it rigorously clean you can’t stop the slow progress of time.

It is probably true that if you were to take a closer look now, you’d find that the curtains are looking a might shabby and worn around the edges, as are the bathroom mats. And do not even look at the soap dish. It is quite true that they don’t make them like they used to and for a very good reason too!

So, do yourself a favour and throw out all that unnecessary junk in the bathroom and get yourself some new stuff – you will be surprised at what lovely things you can find nowadays. Besides, you’ve probably been admiring that lovely bathroom set you saw in the shop for some time, so at the very least now you will have a good reason to go out and splash out on yourself.

And while you’re at it, don’t forget to buy that nice new spice rack you saw last week for the kitchen and a few rugs that can be used in either room. They should be resilient to such commonplace occurrences as water, soap, oil grease, fat and all the other things that somehow seem to become stuck to carpets.

But, if you’re looking for a few new ideas on decorating your bathroom or your kitchen, there are a number of sources you can get your inspiration from. The best one I’ve found so far are the catalogues, which you can browse through until you find what you want.

With all these options, you could even substitute something that is a bit cheaper for the things you see in the catalogues. This then, is the best way to get your decorating projects off the ground and to keep yourself amusingly busy for some time to come and to transform your tired old bathroom and kitchen into new and sparkling areas.
