Dusting Furniture: What is it Good For? Dusting your home can feel like a tedious and endless chore. If I am honest with you, I lived out in the middle of nowhere on a dirt road for a few years and during that time, I decided that there was nothing I could do to fight the dust that was gathering in my home. I gave up... surrendered to the particles and the dingy haze it left on all the surfaces. At the time, it really did seem overwhelming. I could clean the house and go into town to get groceries and come back to dust on the TV screen after only a few hours. I would go months without worrying about dusting because all it took was someone blasting down the road in their pickup and, next thing I know, there is a fresh coat of dust in my house. It got to where I was only dusting if my mom was coming for a visit and she lived out of state. The Effect of Dust At that time in my youth, I wasn't concerned with the side effects that not dusting can cause. To understand ...
Loveseat, baby, Loveseat Exploring the History of the Loveseat When you hear anything with love in the name, you are going to assume the item in question has a lot to do with amorous activity, right? Things like love stories, love motels, The Love Boat, or even love potions all have to do with people expressing their affections. So, it would be pretty obvious to assume that the loveseat was invented to bring people closer together. However, contrary to the namesake, the loveseat's origins aren't steeped in any romantic history. Loveseat is Just a Wide Seat No one really knows who invented the loveseat, however, during the 18th century, wider seats became much more popular. They weren't designed for two people to sit side by side closely, but more for the ladies of the time to have a place to sit that would accommodate their ridiculously wide gowns and dresses they would wear. Over time, the dress fashions became much slimmer and the need for an oversized c...
Kitchen Islands and Carts If you have a kitchen with limited space, you probably understand how hard it can be to cook for a large group of people. Growing up, I would listen to my mom wish upon the stars for more room in her kitchen. After we moved into a larger house, I assume we had more room for her to prepare meals. In all honesty, I wasn't really paying attention. Those lego sets weren't going to build themselves, you know? I did hear her complain about not having enough room every now and again when she would be preparing for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner and times where a larger crowd than usual was going to be eating. I would hear her wish for her own island occasionally. You will have to forgive my young mind for conjuring images of my mom leaving for Hawaii when I would hear her desire for a small mass of land surrounded by water. In all honesty, this seemingly odd request led me to help my mom in the kitchen more and more. My dad worked 12 hou...
